DOJ Now Investigating Disgraced Don Lemon and Radical Anti-ICE Mob for Potential Criminal Violations Following Minneapolis Church Disruption

A full-blown assault on Christian worship unfolded Sunday morning in Minnesota as a radical anti-ICE mob stormed a church service, shut down prayer, and harassed parishioners while disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon live-streamed the chaos.

The mob descended on the sanctuary because the church’s pastor reportedly also serves as a field director with ICE.

Lemon telegraphed his stunt the day before, boasting on Instagram that he was headed to Minnesota to “report on ICE” and urging followers to tune in to his live broadcast.

On Sunday, cameras rolled as agitators shouted down the pastor, disrupted prayer, and scattered congregants.

“This is the beginning of what’s going to happen here,” Lemon said on his stream as the service was derailed. Moments later, he admitted the obvious: “They’ve stopped the service—a lot of people have left.”

This wasn’t reporting. It was participation.

Far-left activist Nekima Levy Armstrong publicly praised the disruption on social media, thanking a roster of agitators and media allies—including Lemon, while declaring “judgment” had come to the “House of God.” The post reads like a victory lap over silencing Christian worship.

WTH? Keith Ellison Says Renee Good Died “On Behalf of the Most Vulnerable Members of Our Community” and It’s “Beautiful” – Don Lemon Eats it Up 

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on Sunday described Renee Good’s death after she tried to kill an ICE agent as “beautiful” and noble during an interview with disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon. 

During his pilgrimage to Minnesota to support anti-ICE riots and report on the violent but peaceful protests, Lemon took a moment to join Ellison in glorifying a deranged leftist woman who attempted to murder a law enforcement officer.

At the scene of Renee Good’s violent assault on the agent, Ellison told Lemon that Good “lost her life trying to be vigilant on behalf of the most vulnerable members of our community.” He continued, “I think that that is beautiful.”

Lemon awkwardly responded with affirmation, “As we say in this country, right? ‘We are in pursuit of a more perfect union.’”

“A more perfect union,” Ellison agreed before offering his fist to Lemon.

WHAT MEDIA BIAS? Look How CNN Framed Inflation Under Joe Biden Versus Trump

CNN is a horribly biased outlet. Everyone with a brain knows this, but sometimes their bias is so stunning it deserves to be pointed out.

They recently tweeted something about inflation, and one smart Twitter/X user from the Daily Wire held it up alongside a similar tweet from when Biden was still in office.

Even though the numbers are far better under Trump, the Biden era tweet sounds like good news, while the recent Trump era tweet sounds negative.

FOX News reports:

CNN called out for framing of inflation under Trump versus Biden in viral post

CNN is facing social media backlash after a social media user pointed out a perceived disparity in how the outlet framed the economy under President Donald Trump versus former President Joe Biden.

Following a Tuesday post on X from CNN regarding inflation under Trump, Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips pointed to a contrast in how inflation is framed now compared to Biden’s time in office.

In March 2023, CNN posted to their X account that “US inflation is still high, but it’s falling,” noting that the previous month’s “Consumer Price Index measured 6%, down from January’s 6.4%.”

Fast-forward to 2026, the outlet wrote on X that “US inflation remained at 2.7% in December, underscoring persistent cost of living challenges.”

This disparity in framing prompted Phillips to upload an image showing both statements, pointing out the difference between how CNN framed 6% inflation under Biden versus 2.7% inflation under Trump.

FBI Raids WaPo Reporter’s Home In Classified Docs Case

The FBI executed a search warrant on the home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson as part of a probe into “a government contractor accused of illegally retaining classified government materials,” the paper announced Wednesday. 

Natanson, was at her Virginia home when the agency showed up with a warrant. According to the outlet, “law enforcement was investigating Aurelio Perez-Lugones, a system administrator in Maryland who has a top secret security clearance and has been accused of accessing and taking home classified intelligence reports that were found in his lunchbox and his basement.” The journalist’s home and devices were search. 

According to her X bio, Natanson covers “the Trump administration’s reshaping of the government and its effects.”

Perez-Lugones is a US citizen who was born in Miami and now resides in Laurel, Maryland according to the FBI’s criminal complaint. He has been a government contractor since 2002 and holds top secret security clearance. 

According to the complaint, at least one document found in Pererz-Lugones’ basement was related to national defense. WaPo reports that Natanson has been part of its most sensitive coverage in the 2nd Trump administration. She told WaPo that the FBI seized a phone and a Garmin watch. 

According to AG Pam Bondi: “his past week, at the request of the Department of War, the Department of Justice and FBI executed a search warrant at the home of a Washington Post journalist who was obtaining and reporting classified and illegally leaked information from a Pentagon contractor. ”

Red-Washing: How the media sanitizes a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary as a ‘preschool teacher’

When police in Michigan arrested Jessica Plichta live on air as she finished a TV news interview supporting Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro, she became an instant protest hero, seen as a victim of the heavy hand of law enforcement.

The 22-year-old from Grand Rapids was widely described in media reports as a “preschool teacher,” an “anti-war activist” and protest “organizer.” And while those descriptions are not wrong, they were hardly comprehensive. A Fox News Digital investigation reveals they are part of a pattern in the media in which the radical ties of leftist agitators are ignored, depriving readers of a deeper and more accurate picture of their sinister goals.

“Preschool Teacher, 22, Arrested on TV After Condemning Trump,” blared a headline in The Daily Beast, above an article that noted cynically, “Welcome to America.” The UK-based Guardian published an article framing her as a progressive “anti-war” activist. And Democracy Now, an anti-Trump platform, lamented, “Grand Rapids Police Arrest Protest Antiwar Organizer After She Condemns Trump.”

Few outlets reported that Plichta is a dedicated revolutionary in the radical Freedom Road Socialist Organization, a self-described Marxist-Leninist “organization of revolutionaries fighting for socialism in the United States.” The FBI in 2010 investigated the group for alleged ties to terrorist groups, including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. It is part of a sprawling network of Marxist-Leninist groups funded by a China-backed billionaire and committed to sowing chaos on American streets, using issues from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to Elon Musk and President Donald Trump to fan the flames of discord.

Here’s How The Media Are Lying Right Now: New York Times ‘Analysis’ Edition

There’s a helpful new way to determine whether the dying news media are lying: Simply look for some variation of the phrase, “according to a New York Times analysis.”

The Times itself has repeatedly relied on that little trick to cast blame on the Trump administration in the death of the angry anti-ICE leftist now identified as Renee Nicole Good. She was shot in Minneapolis last week after recklessly flooring it in her SUV in the middle of the street while disrupting a law enforcement operation.

“A New York Times analysis of videos of the shooting contradicts the Trump administration’s account.” (Jan. 7)

“But a Times analysis of video calls into question key aspects of the government’s account.” (Jan. 7)

“But our analysis of bystander footage, filmed from different angles, appears to show the agent was not in the path of the victim’s SUV when he fired three shots at close range.” (Jan. 8)

“[A] Times analysis of footage from three camera angles showed the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.” (Jan. 8)

By “a Times analysis,” what the paper means is that a handful of content creators who work there looked at the same videos everyone else saw. There’s no reason to believe their eyes are any better than mine, and what I saw was clear. While officials were posted up in their vehicles, pedestrians were blowing whistles and yelling in protest. Good, the now-deceased woman, had her Honda Pilot parked longways in the center of the street, obstructing traffic. When three officers approached Good and commanded her to exit the vehicle, she threw her car into reverse before shifting forward and slamming the gas pedal, apparently striking one of the agents on his left side. That officer had his weapon drawn for her to see, and when she failed to brake, he fired multiple rounds. The SUV then crashed at high speed into another parked car on the road’s left shoulder.

It doesn’t matter whether Good was trying to avoid arrest or whether she suddenly remembered she forgot to blow out the candles before leaving her house. It doesn’t matter whether she was deliberately turning toward any of the agents or away from them. The fact remains that she broke the law by interfering with law enforcement and that she put the lives of everyone on scene at risk when she chose to hit the gas in her two-ton vehicle.

Corporate Media’s 7 Most Brazenly Fake Claims About The Anti-ICE Car-Ramming

f you’ve only paid attention to the legacy media over the past few days, you probably know more about Renee Good’s poetry than you do about the actions that led to her tragic death last Wednesday. After refusing federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers’ commands to get out of her car, which she had used to impede agents’ access to a neighborhood road, Good was caught on video accelerating her SUV toward one agent with another hanging on her door. The agent in front of her vehicle fatally shot her as the car appeared to hit him.

The corporate press, with help from the Democrats to whom they run for comment, portrayed Good as a victim of spontaneous violence, a “woman [who] drops her kid off at school, not involved in protest activity or anything, [but] seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.” The more details emerged, the fewer of those claims turned out to be true.

1. Good Was Just Driving ‘Past’ Agents

A narrative quickly formed insisting that Good’s vehicle wasn’t pointed at the ICE agents at all but was directed away from them.

Someone at Axios Twin Cities approved a headline on Wednesday that said “ICE shoots, kills person in Minneapolis in vehicle that drove past agents.” The story’s lede was even worse: it claimed the ICE agent “shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was in a vehicle that drove close to federal agents” (emphasis added).

In similar fashion, The Washington Post ran a headline at the top of its online front page Thursday morning that claimed the agent “was not in the vehicle’s path” when he fired his handgun. After criticism, the Post changed the headline to say the agent “fired at driver as vehicle veered past him,” without a correction notice. (The same article frames Good’s acceleration toward the agent as navigating “in the correct direction of traffic on the one-way street.”)

But regardless of whether Good intended to hit the officer, it’s obvious from video footage that from the officer’s visual perspective, her car was aimed directly at him. Multiple videos appear to show her vehicle actually hitting him — which would make the Post’s claim that he was “not in the vehicle’s path” something of an impossibility.

The Washington Post’s ‘Analysis’ Of The Minneapolis Shooting Is Pure Propaganda

Don’t believe your lying eyes.

That’s effectively what the hoax-peddling Washington Post told its readers when it ran what can only be surmised as the most dishonest piece of left-wing propaganda published (so far) this year.

Splattered across the top of the outlet’s homepage on Thursday was an ” analysis” titled, “Video shows ICE agent in Minneapolis fired at driver as vehicle veered past him.” (An earlier version of the article had the headline, “ICE agent was not in the vehicle’s path when he fired at driver, video shows.”)

Right from the get-go, it’s clear that make-pretend “reporters” Aaron Davis and Jonathan Baran aren’t trying to inform their audience of what actually happened but are instead seeking to advance the Democrat Party’s anti-ICE agenda.

Upon navigating the Orwellian article, readers are immediately bombarded with the presumption that the Trump administration’s central (and well-documented) claim — that the now-deceased woman disobeyed ICE and then hit an agent with her car — is false. In typical legacy media fashion, Davis and Baran play up such framing by asserting that their “frame-by-frame analysis” “raises questions” about the administration’s account of the incident.

“The SUV did move toward the ICE agent as he stood in front of it. But the agent was able to move out of the way and fire at least two of three shots from the side of the vehicle as it veered past him, according to the analysis,” the propaganda-style article reads.

The authors then take readers on a trip through different video frames of the moment in question, in which they even call into question the documented fact that the agent was hit by the suspect’s vehicle. With little hesitation, they write, “Videos examined by The Post, including one shared on Truth Social by Trump, do not clearly show whether the agent is struck or how close the front of the vehicle comes to striking him.”

Really? Readers are supposed to believe that?

MSNOW Hack Starts CRYING Over Radical Activist Who Tried To Run Over ICE Agent

An MSNOW contributor broke down in tears live on air over the death of Renee Nicole Good, the “ICE Watch” agitator who got herself killed after trying to mow down a federal officer in Minneapolis.

As it has now become abundantly clear, Good deliberately blocked agents, accelerated toward them, and forced a split-second self-defense decision. But leave it to the leftist media to twist this into a tragedy for American “families,” all while stoking hatred against law enforcement agents trying to do their job and arrest illegal alien criminals.

As we highlighted earlier, eyewitness accounts and footage have confirmed that Good, the lead agitator who had been stalking ICE all day, turned her vehicle sideways, intentionally blocking the road for minutes before backing up and then lurching forward toward the agents.

This wasn’t some random mishap. The woman was a trained member of the radical “ICE Watch” network, a leftist coalition using apps, vehicles, and harassment tactics to sabotage federal immigration enforcement. Her actions fit a dangerous pattern of vehicle ramming attacks that have skyrocketed over 3,000% in the past year.

‘The View’ Co-Host Joy Behar Says ‘Fascism’ Has Arrived in America, Now Living Under Trump ‘Dictatorship’

The View co-host Joy Behar has warned that “fascism” has arrived and that Americans are living under a Trump “dictatorship.”

During Thursday’s edition of the left-wing panel show, Behar urged people to “wake up” to the reality of what they are living under.

She ranted:

Are we in the middle of fascist America? Because in this day yesterday in the left, just this last week, I’m just going to give you a summary of what we’ve been through one week.

Pete Hegseth started an illegal war for oil in Venezuela. Right. Stephen Miller threatened a military takeover of Greenland. RFK Jr. slashed childhood vaccine recommendations and ICE shot and killed a United States citizen in Minneapolis.

Yeah, that sort of adds up to me like a dictatorship in the making that we are now in it. We are in it now.

And American people, I think, have to wake up to this a little bit more than we are. We try very hard to give you what we know, but people have to start reading and watching and paying attention a little bit more than we have, because we can lose it.

These ICE agents, by the way, they get a $50,000 bonus when they sign up. They’re highly motivated people who probably don’t have much going on.
