It’s quite surreal that I have to prepare documents for my wife and boss about how to tie up loose ends for me in the event I am kidnapped and/or murdered by domestic terrorists who are working for a government of a country that is supposed to be democratic and free. Yet that’s what I’m doing today in anticipation of the coming weeks.

@Bundesregierung

Die SPD bezeichnet die #USA als "feindliche Macht".
Der Bundeskanzler bezeichnet die USA bis zuletzt als "Partner".

Ich verlange nun, daß der Kanzler mir erklärt, ob die #Pressefreiheit noch zu Deutschlands Grundwerten zählt.

"Another independent journalist, Georgia Fort, was arrested last night in Minnesota."

Fort had reported, as a journalist, along with Don Lemon, on the protest in a Southern Baptist church headed by the regional ICE director in Minnesota.

"Attorney General Pam Bondi later confirmed the arrest of Lemon and three others — Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy — in a post on X, accusing them of a 'coordinated attack' on the church."

Thou shalt not touch my sacred (white supremacist) Southern Baptists whose church was founded to keep slavery alive.

"News of Lemon’s Thursday night arrest broke Friday morning after his attorney, Abbe Lowell, released a statement:

'This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court.'”

The Guardian:

"Federal agents arrest former CNN anchor Don Lemon

Don Lemon, a former CNN anchor, was arrested by federal agents in Los Angeles, his lawyer said on Friday, days after a magistrate judge refused to approve charges against him for documenting a protest at a church in Minnesota."

Statement:
"Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention and resources to this arrest, and that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case. This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court."
