Article 1 Section 5 Clause 2

Article I

Section 5
Clause 2

Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member.

==============

In my opinion, there are several members of Congress that need to be expelled. (You probably have your own list?) They should have a vote to expel any member connected to the insurrection on January 5th. If they cannot get the two-thirds to expel, then they should vote to censure those members, which requires a simple majority. But history would record that there was a vote to expel that member before they were censured.
