#DonLemonArrested
Meanwhile in other supposedly Blue states the local cops are MORE than happy to simply observe ICE doing obviously illegal shit.
In a case from California this week a US citizen live streamed her illegal arrest all while local cops looked on and did not intervene.

Lemon blasts corporate media that ‘bend the knee’ to Trump after arrest
https://thehill.com/homenews/media/5716819-don-lemon-rips-media-trump/
"As the American people continue to express their fury over the violence of federal agents in Minneapolis and elsewhere, officials from the Trump administration today tried to shift the public narrative to shore up their softening base and silence their opponents."

"Everything Trump says is a lie, but the media dutifully repeats Trump’s lies as if they deserve equal dignity with truthful statements by Democrats. …
In the face of the arrest of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort, every news agency with a White House pool reporter should recall the reporter from the assignment and turn in their White House credentials."

"Every reference to Trump should include the fact that he is a twice-impeached, convicted felon who lies whenever he speaks. The press has bowed before Trump for eight years. He learned from their subservience and took the next logical step. It is time for the mainstream media to become part of the resistance. Better late than never!"

"Members of the media are understandably outraged, as they should be. This is a five-alarm fire. But it is one that has been burning for eight years. Trump attacked, mocked, and sued journalists in his first term. But the media continued to report on Trump as if he were a 'normal' president who deserved to be treated with a presumption of regularity and respect."

"The administration is appealing to the MAGA racist and Christian nationalist base by demonstrating that it is willing to violate the Constitution to impose MAGA’s ideology on the nation. But it is also apparently trying to signal to white American citizens that they should think they are safe from an authoritarian administration: its top victims remain Black Americans and people of color."

"[Don Lemon] went into the facility, and then he began 'committing journalism,' as if that's sort of a shield from being an embedded part of a criminal conspiracy. ... Nobody should think in the United States that they’re going to be able to get away with [committing journalism]." -Harmeet Dhillon, DOJ assistant attorney general for civil rights
Release Don Lemon. Release Georgia Fort. And release the Epstein files.
Journalist Lemon in Zusammenhang mit Anti-ICE-Protest festgenommen
Don Lemon ist ein renommierter US-Journalist, viele Jahre lang arbeitete er für CNN. Jetzt ist er festgenommen worden, nachdem er als Reporter bei einem Protest gegen die Einwanderungsbehörde ICE gefilmt hatte. Die Vorwürfe? Unklar.
The arrests of reporters Georgia Fort and Don Lemon for engaging in journalism are outrageous.
The Media and Democracy Project, and many other press freedom groups, joined this statement by the National Association of Black Journalists #NABJ
