Tyrannical authoritarians do not like freedom of the press. Georgia Fort and Don Lemon were arrested for documenting the truth here in Minnesota and that is an outrage. It is time for all us to stand up in opposition to Trump's regime.

Independent journalist Georgia Fort was, like Don Lemon, arrested for doing her job: documenting a protest of public concern. When members of the press are taken into custody simply for filming and reporting, it sends a chilling message to every journalist in America. The First Amendment does NOT belong to the powerful; it exists to protect truth, accountability, and the public’s right to know. We must speak out when press freedom is under attack!

🚨"My mom is being arrested for documenting what happened at City Church—this is wrong. This goes against her first amendment right. She is not a protester, she is not an activist, she is a mom working to provide for her children,"-daughter of arrested journalist Georgia Fort

“I’m being arrested for filming.” “Georgia Fort, an Emmy-winning journalist, says federal agents arrived at her door with a warrant tied to video she recorded at a church protest weeks ago. In a live stream, she questioned how documenting a public demonstration as a member of the press could lead to her arrest — raising serious concerns about First Amendment rights and press protections. As more details come to light, the incident is prompting urgent questions about what it means to cover protests and whether journalists can safely do their jobs without fear of retaliation.

🚨 An independent journalist, Georgia Fort, who was with disgraced ex-CNN host Don Lemon when he stormed a Minnesota church shared video of the moment agents came to arrest her very early Friday morning. She decided to do a Facebook live instead of going with federal officers until her lawyer said she had to go. She repeatedly said she’s a journalist. Well journalists can get arrested for crimes. “There’s agents at my door,” “As a member of the press, I filmed the church protest a few weeks ago and now I’m being arrested for that.”

BREAKING: Georgia Fort’s 17-year-old daughter and husband spoke out today at a press conference, calling for her immediate release after she was detained by federal agents this morning. “My mom is being arrested for documenting what happened at City Church. And this is wrong. This goes against her First Amendment right as a journalist. And it’s being challenged today. She is not a protester. She is not an activist. She is a mom working to provide for her children through the only way she knows how, documenting and sharing stories of the community and the truth of what’s happening here every day in our state.” Fort is an independent journalist who has spent years reporting on issues impacting Minnesota communities. Her family says she was doing her job. Nothing more. They are demanding accountability and her immediate release. 📸:

BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ has just arrested reporter Don Lemon for reporting on the Minneapolis protests. Meanwhile, Americans still don’t know the name of the masked federal agents who killed an American citizen on the streets. This is a blatant attack on our First Amendment rights and an attempt to chill the Free Press in this country. It’s all slipping away. Don’t let it.

🚨BREAKING: THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS NOW ARRESTING INDEPENDENT JOURNALISTS FOR REPORTING ABOUT THE MINNESOTA ANTI-ICE CHURCH PROTEST. This IS the censorship Republicans spent years screamed about… Independent journalist Georgia Fort was on the scene as a member of the press, doing exactly what journalists are supposed to do: film and document a protest. For that, she was arrested by the FBI. In her own words: “As a member of the press, I filmed the church protest a few weeks ago and now I’m being arrested for that. It’s hard to understand how we have a Constitution, Constitutional rights, when we can just be arrested for being a member of the press.” Read that again. She wasn’t organizing. She wasn’t participating. She was reporting. They want journalists to think twice before showing up… They want cameras turned off. They want documentation of their crimes and constitutional violations to stop. If you witness something the Trump administration doesn’t want seen, you become the target. When a government starts treating observation as participation, and documentation as a crime… You no longer have free press. This is what authoritarian governments do. They don’t ban the press outright… they terrorize it into silence. If journalists can be arrested for doing their jobs, then the public loses its witnesses, its accountability, and its ability to know the truth. And once that’s gone, everything else is easy to hide.

BREAKING: Senior DOJ advisor Alina Habba says Tim Walz and Jacob Frey will be investigated for inciting the storming of the Minnesota church and violating the FACE Act. She also announces a full-scale crackdown on the funding behind these groups. “The FACE Act is a long standing federal statute. It carries criminal penalties and violation. The DOJ will come down hard on anybody who tries to impede in a place of worship.” “The DOJ will look into whomever is funding this. If you are funding mass protests that are putting people in risk, this DOJ will come down on you.”

WATCH... AAGHarmeetDhillon just joined me on radio. Takeaways: 🚨 "We have sent prosecutors to Minneapolis who are working together with the U.S. Attorney's office and the FBI." Pam Bondi is checking in "ever couple of hours." 🚨 "I'm seeing the thousands of tweets of Panicans dunking on the DOJ for not immediately arresting people and asking questions later. That's not how it works in real life." 🚨 "There will be arrests in this situation. Based on the video I've seen, there are clear violations of the FACE Act—really very clear." 🚨 Dhillon told Benny Johnson: “Come next Sunday, nobody should think in the United States that they’re going to be able to get away with this.” Does that mean arrests by this weekend? "I hope we can see that. But my point is that everyone in the country should feel comforted by the extremely rapid and high-level response to this crime." 🚨 Dhillon on Don Lemon: "a journalist is not inoculated from criminal charges just because they say they're a journalist or they switch hats rapidly between being a journalist and a participant. You can't embed yourself in a crime and then say, 'I'm a journalist, I'm just filming it for clicks or whatever.' It's a crime to go into a house of worship and disrupt it." 🚨 Dhillon says breaking up the broader criminal conspiracy is "a very high priority" at DOJ: "Finding out who is funding this chaos and this anarchy and this violence in our country is, across the DOJ, a very high priority."

We flipped the script and interviewed journalist Katie Phang on her lawsuit against DOJ and Acting AG Todd Blanche. One thing is clear, DOJ is breaking the law and trying to litigate this case in the court of public opinion—rather than a court of law. Here is Katie to break down her suit, what real justice means, and how courageous women are leading in this case:
