Don Lemon has been doing great work since he left CNN in 2023 but it is Georgia Fort who is the real powerhouse here. This is grim news…
These journalists were arrested for COVERING A PROTEST they weren’t endorsing it they were doing their jobs.
The fascist takeover is here in full force.
Local independent journalist Georgia Fort livestreamed the moments before her arrest Friday on Facebook Live, saying “agents are at my door right now” and that they had an arrest warrant and a grand jury indictment.
“I don’t feel like I have my first amendment right as a member of the press because now the federal agents are at my door arresting me for filming the church protest a few weeks ago,” Fort said, adding that she knew she was on a list of defendants that is under seal.

Damn. Arresting journalists is bad enough, but saying publicly that you are targeting them is a sure way to get the cases thrown out, and improve their media presence.
