At best his actions were trespassing, though even that is debatable. Call this what it is, the chilling of opposing political speech by the Party in power. And remember this when the other Party is in control and starts doing the same thing right back. Then you'll wonder how we got here.

Did he know what he was doing was illegal?  Did he notice the people breaking windows in order to get inside?  Did he notice the pitched battle between police and the rioters who were trying to get into the Capitol?  

And, "remember this when the other Party is in control and starts doing the same thing right back"???  I would say the same thing.  Would you think it's okay for Biden supporters to fight their way through police barricades in order to invade the Capitol and stop the certification of the election if Trump won?

All I know is Democrats have invaded the Capital and shut down the government several times before and they weren't even given a ticket. Now we have proven invocation of violence by government plants at a political protest and the Jackboots are persecuting every person they can remotely tie to the incident no matter how, like this guy, trivial the participation actually was. And who are we kidding, Republicans are too scared and lazy to ever play these games with their opposition so my comment is a moot point.
