Charge the thugs with state crimes and no bail. Then convict them and keep them locked up with no Tangerine Tyrant pardon available. Can't say what will happen to the Senators in DC, but they don't have to put up with this in their home state.

At least it will keep these unelected thugs out of states with Dem governors.
