The long and winding road of Don Lemon's arrest came to an end in Los Angeles overnight. It started at Cities Church in the Twin Cities and wended through three different court venues. The end of the road came at the Grammy Awards, which Lemon apparently had been covering for his YouTube channel.
What a long, strange trip it's been, indeed:
The former CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested late Thursday night on charges that he violated federal law during a protest at a church in St. Paul, Minn., his lawyer said, in a case rejected last week by a magistrate judge.
Mr. Lemon has said he was simply reporting as a journalist when he entered the Cities Church on Jan. 18 to observe a demonstration against the immigration crackdown in the area.
The protesters interrupted a service at the church, where an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official serves as a pastor, and chanted “ICE out.” Afterward, the Trump administration sought to charge eight people over the episode, including Mr. Lemon, citing a law that protects people seeking to participate in a service in a house of worship.

Problem:
A jury or a judge might sentence him to five years in prison.
On appeal, Lemmon may seek a 10 year term.
“Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat”. Sorry, couldn’t resist.
How many independent journalists were arrested while covering J6?

@jemelehill
They arrested Don Lemon. This is horrifying. I don’t care what your political beliefs or leanings are, what journalism outlet you represent, this absolutely cannot stand.
Jemele Hill?! LOL!
Throw the book at Donny Lemon!
What would one get after sleeping with Don Lemon?
(Punch line too obvious to post.)
Jemele, you should be tried with him and go to prison as well.
Lemon has hired Hunter Biden’s attorney Abbe Lowell to represent him, and Lowell is already all-in on the First Amendment defense:
Shut dee doe, keep out dee debble ………….
Lowell is a very accomplished attorney, and if I were in this kind of trouble, I’d be lucky to have him (and very, very broke in the end). However, this defense is a loser for several reasons, the first of which is that Lemon wasn’t the only party to this incident that had First Amendment rights at stake. The First Amendment protects the right to freedom of religious expression, the core of which is the right to worship in one’s own church in peace. Even people claiming to be journalists can’t interrupt worship services and demand impromptu “interviews” with the minister or celebrant, especially inside the church on private property. Lemon filmed himself preparing with the instigators outside before invading the church, and his “interview” consisted of demanding answers to the instigators’ claims and demands.
There is no Gold at the end of that rainbow.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If he gets prison time, a lot of people are going to be eating lemons ...
They arrested the main ghettopotamus first. They have her phone. They can show coordination between the “journalist” Lemon and the other rioters.
Lemon is not a Journalist. Never was. He wouldn’t know journalism if it bit him in the as*.
Beat me to it, Rummy!

BREAKING: Federal agents surrounded the home of Georgia Fort, a “journalist” who stormed the church with anti-ICE activists in Minneapolis.
Watch her try to play victim.
Incredible
Good... Just because you have First Amendment Rights, in no way means you can use those Rights to infringe on the equal Rights of others...
