House Democrats introduced a resolution that would bar former President Donald Trump — along with Steve Bannon, Mark Meadows, Dan Scavino, Peter Navarro, Jeffrey Clark, John Eastman, Kenneth Cheseboro, Rudy Giuliani, and other figures — from entering the U.S. Capitol.
Reps. Nikema Williams (D-Ga.) and Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) introduced the resolution in the House Committee on House Administration.
👋🏾 Hey @FoxNews, glad to see you read my bill (even if you didn't read my name)! @RepSwalwell co-sponsored my legislation, but I'll sign on to his analogy: let's keep the arsonists out of the Capitol y'all. https://t.co/BkcRTDFT6U — Congresswoman Nikema Williams (@RepNikema) February 22, 2023
The measure draws on information from the former House Jan. 6 Committee, arguing that Trump and his allies put members of congress in "genuine peril."
"The effort to undermine and overturn the 2020 presidential election damaged the functions of our democracy," the resolution states.
Those efforts also "damaged the integrity of Congress's constitutional role in certifying the election results" and "put the lives of Members of Congress and the Vice President of the United States in genuine peril," it adds.
Shortly after the events of Jan. 6, 2021, Williams introduced a similar measure that would ban Trump from visiting the Capitol.
The resolution stated: "The Sergeant at Arms of the House of Representatives, the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the Senate, and the United States Capitol Police shall take such actions as may be necessary to prohibit President Donald John Trump from entering the United States Capitol at any time after the expiration of his term as President."
In response, Trump, who is running for president again, called Swalwell an "idiot" and noted Swalwell's relationship with a Chinese spy.

Whenever you see ridiculous claims like this, call them on it with Hitchen’s Razor.
“Assertions made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.”
Ohhh those clever Democrats...
In that case, while their at it... maybe they wish to ban the whole Republican Party as well, and build gulags to handle all the deplorable Americans?
A bill of attainder. How quaint.
Give it up. The J6 Stalinist show trial was a bust. Hopefully Tucker will expose the J6 Reichstag Fire plot and vindicate all of the victims.
Trump is right. Swampwell is an idiot.
Being nearly 74 years of existence living in this great country, I don’t recall ever knowing of any openly expressed hatred of anyone such as we’re seeing today as that expressed for President Trump.
Such animosity by those such as Swalwell, Schiff, and McCain and some 40+ percent of the voting public, while at the same time his supporters amount to about the same high percentage of voters, illustrates the deep divide this country is in, to the point that voters support or reject issues based on which politician is in favor of or against those issues instead of the merits of the issues themselves.
And that’s not good!
The REAL J6 we will happen after Trump is elected. Of course it will be classified as peaceful protesting no matter what they do because it is liberals and they are always justified, just as Nancy was when she tore up the state of the union on camera right in back of Trump. What tone does that set?
Swalwell has the mentality of those little boys in their tree houses, posting “no grils allowed” signs in crayon.
The enemy is inside the gates.
The irony of Swalwell banning Trump from the Capitol is as rich as it gets. It must be Fang Fang’s idea.
Oh, I agree lady! Let's also keep them out of CVS and Walmart.
Alec Baldwin didn’t know the gun was loaded, either. It seems that these knowitalls are experts at not knowing things when it suits them.
Simple…
Move the Capital.
Watch how fast DC degrades.
And the appeal of a bucket of slimy SPIT!
Most of this was orderly. If you’re in a crowd and get pushed along...you don’t have a choice. Nothing was burned. Little was damaged. The Capitol should have been secured BEFORE January 6th.. Blame Pelosi in part...but a few...very few...belong in jail.
Why don’t you get off your fat yoga ass and do something about it? You are too effin’ lazy that’s why you won’t do anything except bitch like a little spoiled girl. People like you are one of two things and they both suck…
Go away. Hang out at dimocRAT underground. Fool.
I’ll remember that.
I’m familiar with Occam’s Razor, but hadn’t heard of Hitchen’s.
BTTT
Such a rule is unconstitutional.
The 2020 presidential election was overturned by the criminal democraps and their cohorts in the wee morning hours of Wednesday, November 4th, 2020.
Everyone the RATS want to ban from the U.S. Capitol are true American patriots, unlike the treasonous scumbag RATS.
