Oath Keeper leader Rhodes who got a J6 Trump pardon banned from Capitol Hill as part of probation

The founder of the far-right group Oath Keepers has been banned from coming to Washington, D.C., and entering the U.S. Capitol unless he is given permission by a court.

Stewart Rhodes, 59, had his 18 year prison sentence commuted by President Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot in 2021.

U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta gave this order to seven other Jan. 6 defendants, according to The Associated Press.

As a consequence, they remain on supervised release and have to follow certain restrictions set by the court under the supervision of a probation officer.

While Rhodes didn't enter the Capitol on Jan. 6, he was accused of orchestrating a plot to stop the transition of power with Trump to former President Joe Biden.

After his pardon, Rhodes visited the U.S. Capitol last week. 

Trump has defended the pardons he has given to the Jan. 6 defendants, calling what they went through “disgusting” and “inhumane.”
