"Former CNN host Don Lemon predicted on his podcast that the Department of Justice would try again to bring charges against him following a recent protest at a Minnesota church. Lemon said he was in the Cities Church in St. Paul last Sunday as a journalist recording protesters looking to question pastor David Easterwood over his alleged involvement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. After President Donald Trump called for the protesters and Lemon to be thrown in jail, or thrown out of the country, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that there had been several arrests, adding that there were [m]ore to come."
"I have said several times, I am not a protester I'm a journalist, Lemon said on Thursday night's podcast. He continued: I stand proud, and I stand tall. This is not a victory lap for me because it's not over. They're going to try again, and they're going to try again. And guess what? Here I am. Keep trying. That's not going to stop me from being a journalist. You're not going to diminish my voice."
"This morning, Trump-aligned podcaster Benny Johnson said his "DOJ sources" told him "multiple alternative legal paths are already in motion," adding, "Don Lemon is not off the hook, this is just the beginning," Stelter wrote on social media."
Don Lemon says the Department of Justice will attempt to bring charges against him again after a protest at Cities Church in St. Paul. Lemon says he was at the church as a journalist recording protesters seeking to question pastor David Easterwood about alleged involvement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. President Donald Trump called for the protesters and Lemon to be jailed or expelled, and Attorney General Pam Bondi announced arrests with more to come. A federal magistrate judge refused to sign a complaint against Lemon. Media figures say alternative legal paths may still be pursued.
