A federal judge on Friday barred Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and seven other members of the right-wing extremist group from entering Washington, D.C., without the court’s permission, days after President Trump commuted their sentences as part of sweeping clemency for those charged in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.

U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta, who oversaw the Oath Keepers conspiracy trials, also blocked the Oath Keepers from entering the U.S. Capitol or surrounding grounds without permission.

The order amending the conditions of their release came after Rhodes was spotted in the Capitol complex on Wednesday, set to met with GOP lawmakers to advocate for the release of another Oath Keeper shortly after his own release from prison.

The other Oath Keepers whom Mehta barred from Washington and the Capitol include Kelly Meggs, Kenneth Harrelson and Jessica Watkins, who were tried for seditious conspiracy alongside Rhodes, and Roberto Minuta, Edward Vallejo, David Moerchel and Joseph Hackett, who faced a separate sedition trial.

1. Get Eh-Lean Cannon

[Ocelot II]

8. No, she's in Florida.

9. She did/does seem to swing a wide loop for being in Florida.

Ask Merrick the Meek.

2. So, I guess now

he will have to issue them a full pardon. He needs his Brown Shirts in DC to do their work.

[Bluetus]

10. The judge's order would have to be enforced by doj.

So it has no weight.

[DENVERPOPS]

14. Brown Shirts?

More like Hitler's Gestapo or his SS.......

3. A day late and a dollar short, right?

Rhodes was in the CAPITAL BUILDING meeting with Congressman on Wednesday.

4. Who...that should be everywhere!

[gab13by13]

5. Then what?

Arrest him and Trump will pardon him again.

[Bluethroughu]

6. No the Congressman that met with this insurrectionist after the pardon, so we know

Who in Congress has the gull to meet with a cop killer the day after a pardon.

7. NOPE, Not in...

"Rhodes was spotted in the Dunkin’ Donuts inside Longworth House Office Building, which is accessible to the public, with a group of people. He said he did not go into the actual Capitol building."

11. Oh, well. No problem then!

I'm thinking that the "meet with GOP lawmakers" part is actually more important than the precise location of the meeting.

But your attention to punctilious accuracy is admirable!

13. Thanks for the clarification

I didn’t know it was the other office building

12. Next up: the pardoned "hostages" sue for reparations.

Right now some clever D.C. lawyer is drafting the paperwork.

This will be on top of the $10,000 Felon47 will have DOJ pay, plus a letter of apology.

[Figarosmom]

15. They better

Remember that tsf is another felon. As are they.

Consorting with other felons is a no no
