Federal authorities have arrested two anti-ICE agitators after a mob stormed a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday.

Bondi named Nekima Levy Armstrong and Chauntyll Louisa Allen as the suspects. FBI Director Kash Patel says the pair are charged with violating the FACE Act, which prohibits interfering with the exercise of religion at a place of worship.

"Minutes ago at my direction, HSI and FBI agents executed an arrest in Minnesota. So far, we have arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, who allegedly played a key role in organizing the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota," Bondi wrote on X.

"A second arrest has been made at my direction. Chauntyll Louisa Allen has been taken into custody," she announced minutes later.

"We will share more updates as they become available. Listen loud and clear: WE DO NOT TOLERATE ATTACKS ON PLACES OF WORSHIP," she added.

Armstrong, whose website identifies her as a civil rights lawyer and "scholar-activist," helped to organize the storming of Cities Church in in St. Paul on Sunday.

Allen is a member of the St. Paul School Board who also helped organize the protest.

Weird to me. It looked to me like there were more than two commie piggies in the church rioting.

when you bring a charge, there better be good evidence. For the two arrested, I suspect there is lots of evidence.

Don Lemon was an opportunist, It might be a hard case to prove. I think they are looking at the evidence, and have a better handle on the evidence than you or I do.

For some people on this forum, when it comes to AG Bondi it’ll never be enough.

These protestors behave like deranged juviniles. The best way to deal with them is not to be too gentle with them as they resist arrest. If they feel pain, they are far less likely to risk arrest again.Their time incarcerated should not be pleasant. They do not fear the courts.

That bearded maniac who had been arrested just two days before. I’m sure he’s on the list. Frankly I’m in favor of letting Lemon go. To tough to get a co fiction beyond a reasonable doubt with all the freedom of the press chaff he’ll throw up

Literally an elected government official engaged in criminal activity.

LOCAL ELECTIONS MATTER.

Well, as far as the protests go, these arrests will either quite things down or ramp them up into a frenzy. I’m guessing it will be the latter. Good thing we have the Vortex coming in though. The cold should keep them inside for a few days. As far as what happens to these two, states have jailed little old ladies praying silently in front of abortion clinics and law enforcement raided a father’s house and kept his wife and kids outside in the cold for hours, soooooo.

Google “list of people imprisoned for FACE Act Violations since 2016.” I was surprised to see that many imprisoned and/or indicted. All of them were Pro-Lifers. The oldest was 87 at the time.

They need to get the ugly “vet,” too. Maybe I time. The one, fat woman confessed/boasted out loud in an interview. They had her easily.

That would be his PREGNANT wife; their baby died as a result of "law enforcement's" officially sanctioned torture.

Or fast enough. It’s supposed to happen instantaneously, almost like magic. I was always taught if you rush things you make mistakes...

By arresting the ringleader first they will be able dig through her phone, emails etc and get the evidence on all the others including Don Lemon.

So, he just happened to be driving by when the mob stormed a Church? I find that somewhat strains credulity.
