Kamala Harris: Don Lemon arrest ‘an affront to our rights and freedoms’

Don Lemon was arrested on charges of conspiracy and violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act while covering a protest opposing ICE at a Minnesota church, drawing criticism as a press freedom threat.

  • Don Lemon was arrested in Los Angeles in connection with a January protest at Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, where anti-ICE demonstrators disrupted a church service.
  • Lemon faces charges under the FACE Act and conspiracy-related offenses, as federal prosecutors argue he participated in unlawful conduct during the protest rather than merely reporting on it.
  • Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced Lemon's arrest and emphasized that it is part of a broader legal response to the disruption of worship rights, challenging the balance between religious freedom and journalistic coverage.
  • The legal proceedings in this case could redefine the boundaries for journalists at protests, questioning how courts will view the distinction between reporting and participating in civil disobedience.
