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.

Trump is an American taxpayer. I don’t think the Nazi bassturds can do this. Especially when the Feddies invite every “champion” professional sports team loaded down with criminals to the White Hut to pahtay and participate in a photo op showing that they love pedophiles and other white sexual deviants.

A bill of attainder is specifically banned by the Constitution.

Hurry Swallwell, before the world sees the "other" Jan 6 videos.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-CA) complained that "the narrative that the January 6 special committee worked so long and hard to construct would be undermined by an indiscriminate viewing of the raw and unedited footage. The crucial few minutes the committee selected to demonstrate that right-wing traitors were intending to overthrow our government would be drowned out by the tens of thousands of boring hours showing people peacefully meandering in the building and give an erroneous impression of what happened.

They stab it with their steely knives,

What is an example of bill of attainder?

At English common law, a bill of attainder was legislation imposing the death penalty without a judicial trial. That definition later expanded to include “bills of pains and penalties” that imposed other forms of criminal punishment such as banishment, imprisonment, or confiscation of property without trial.

A few months ago:

We have subpoenaed Trump and are compelling him by law to come to Capitol Hill to testify.

Now:

We are prohibiting Trump, by law, from coming to Capitol Hill.

Make up your minds Dimocrats!
