Swalwell Proposes Bill to Ban Trump From U.S. Capitol
Kabuki for the rubes in a Republican-controlled House.
[TOWNHALL] Rep. Eric I farted on national television Swalwell
... U.S. Representative-for-Life from Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,'s 15th congressional district since 2013. Naturally he's a Dem. His district covers most of eastern Alameda County and part of central Contra Costa County. He was rapidly eliminated from the 2020 Dem nomination pool. He looks a lot like Greg Marmelard, and has the distinction of being one of the few politicians to ever fart on national teevee...
 (D-Calif), who was kicked off the House Select Committee on Intelligence because of his years-long affair with a Chinese spy, is trying to stay in the headlines by proposing a plan to keep former President Trump out of the Capitol.

The bill, introduced by Rep. Nikema Williams (D-GA), would permanently bar Trump and several top aides from the Capitol because of their attempt to "undermine and overturn the 2020 presidential election."

The proposal asks the House and Senate Sergeant at Arms and the U.S. Capitol Police to take "such actions as may be necessary" to keep Trump from entering the halls of Congress forever.

"The effort to undermine and overturn the 2020 presidential election damaged the functions of our democracy," the resolution states, adding that those efforts also "damaged the integrity of Congress's constitutional role in certifying the election results."

Swalwell also proposed for former Trump advisor Steve Bannon, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows; former White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino; former Trump assistant Peter Navarro; former Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Clark, who supported an investigation into election fraud in 2020; and Trump attorneys John Eastman, Kenneth Chesebro, and Rudy Giuliani to also be banned from the Capitol.

#1 This is the kind of crap aimed more at his donors than the citizenry.

What a douchbag.

Fred kind of reminds me of my grad school accounting prof. "Smokin' Joe". No do-overs, ergo no edit button. ;->

#3 Actually I agree with the onerous Swalwell. Our nation's capitol appears to corrupt the very best. Trump could conduct the affairs of presidential office quite effectively from Mar-a-Lago.

#6 Bill of Attainder. Unconstitutional. Eric, of course, does not know that, and none of his staff does either.

#7  Trump could conduct the affairs of presidential office quite effectively from Mar-a-Lago.

As Biden does from Delaware.

#8 'Um, what the hell': Biden appears confused in bizarre exchange while struggling to explain why he still hasn't visited East Palestine weeks after devastating train derailment - as he heads to Delaware home

#10 Casket sizes. Presented as information only, please don't read anything else into it.

#11 Reviewing MM’s casket sizing guide, doubtful even the ‘double oversize’ at 38 inches would allow the esteemed Stacy ‘Boxcar’ Abrams to depart this earth in one trip.
FWIW: current AAR and FRA regulations have a 50 year service life on real boxcars in interchange service; perhaps there is a potential secondary life for them here……

#14 It would be hilarious (to me at least) if somehow this stupid bill were to pass, and then Trump got elected in 2024. He would have to give the State of the Union speech from somewhere else.

#15 It might make the State of the Union more watchable.

#17 Better yet, from Telluride, and Trump starts by saying all the residents have been deported.
