Feds announce 4 more arrests in anti-ICE church protest, including Don Lemon and Georgia Fort Three others were arrested and charged last week following the demonstration at Cities Church in St. Paul.
Independent journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort have been arrested in connection with an anti-ICE protest at a St. Paul church, almost two weeks after they covered the demonstration by activists as members of the press.
Federal agents arrested Lemon, a former CNN host, in Los Angeles on Thursday night and Fort in the Twin Cities on Friday morning. Exactly what they're being charged with is still unclear.
Black Lives Matter Minnesota co-founder Trahern Crews and state Senate hopeful Jamael Lundy have also been arrested, according to a social media post from Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Matt Walsh has a video here recommending getting rid of the IRS's ITIN system. Seems like a fantastic idea, the ITIN is a stand in for an SS#. Now lets see, who doesn't have a social security number?
Trump Says Federal Authorities Won’t Respond to Protests in Democrat-Led Cities Unless Asked
The president’s instruction comes after federal authorities shot and killed two protesters during recent immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota.
President Donald Trump on Saturday announced federal authorities will not intervene in protests in Democrat-led jurisdictions, but will continue to forcefully protect federal property.
“I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
“We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists.”
The president’s message comes after federal authorities shot and killed protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretti during recent immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota.
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer shot Good on Jan. 7 as she struck the officer with her SUV while attempting to flee apprehension. Officials said the ICE agent suffered internal bleeding during the encounter.
A Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer fatally shot Pretti on Jan. 24 during an altercation. Videos from the incident show Pretti was filming federal authorities with his phone, and stepped between one of the CBP officers and another protester the officer had pushed to the ground. The incident then devolved into a struggle between Pretti and several federal agents, ending with one or more of those federal agents shooting him.
Pretti possessed a permit to carry firearms, and had a handgun on his person at the time of the altercation. His death is now the subject of a federal civil rights investigation. Representatives for Pretti’s family confirmed he was filmed in a separate Jan. 13 altercation in which he appeared to spit at a vehicle and kick out its taillight. The vehicle then stopped, and several masked federal agents proceeded to tackle him to the ground. In his Saturday social media post, Trump said he issued instructions for ICE and Border Patrol personnel to “be very forceful” in protecting federal property.
“There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors,” the president added. “If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence.”
Trump said state and local governments also have an obligation to protect federal property, as well as local property.
The president also raised the prospect of deploying military personnel to assist in protecting federal property.
“Remember that I stated, in the strongest of language, to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely powerful and tough in the protection of our Federal Property,” he wrote.

We're in for it now. Peter Dinklage is on the case.
"Peter Dinklage" sounds like something one should visit a urologist for.

And people should not ignore the fact that communist ideology is a big part of these riots.

Well I just saw they released the names of the agents that disarmed and shot Preiltti. Both are Hispanic. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez. How’s that for irony.
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster.

If she's admitting that she's in possession of stolen property, then she should be charged.
