Not one, but TWO courts have already rejected charges against Don Lemon. This is pure vindictiveness, clearly they don't give a shit about the law, or the constitution.

Statement from Seth Stern of the @FreedomofPress foundation: "Lemon’s arrest under a bogus legal theory is a clear warning shot aimed at other journalists. The unmistakable message is that journalists must tread cautiously because the government is looking for any way to target

I read this @WesleyLowery must-read when it came out in 2016 or so! Ten years later, we're still here!

“What was clear in person, seeing the scene outside of the frame, were the limits of this performance of power. The agents had no capacity to maintain order or much apparent interest in doing so.”

none of this needed to happen.

by the end of the Obama presidency, 55 percent of white Americans believed the U.S. government discriminates against them. This “whitelash” to a changing nation is the defining political force of our time. Wrote a book about this in 2023: https://t.co/JGe3Nm4Uat
