Former CNN Anchor in Hot Water

Don Lemon, the former CNN anchor, is in trouble. He’s been indicted, along with independent journalist Georgia Fort and others, for conspiracy and interfering with worshippers’ First Amendment rights. The charges stem from an anti-immigration enforcement protest that went down in a Minnesota church earlier this month.

What Happened

Apparently, the protest disrupted a church service, and now Lemon and company are facing the music. It’s not clear what they were thinking, but it’s safe to say they won’t be winning any awards for diplomacy. The indictment is pretty serious, and it’s likely to get ugly.

The incident is just the latest example of how things can go sideways when politics and protest collide. It’s a mess, and it’s going to be interesting to see how it all plays out.
