Disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon is strutting after escaping justice yesterday despite committing a variety of illegal actions in a St. Paul church earlier this week.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Trump Justice Department charged Lemon and 7 others for storming Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. However, the magistrate judge rejected the charges against Don Lemon.
Making matters worse, the magistrate in Minnesota who refused to sign off on an arrest warrant for Don Lemon is Douglas L. Micko, and his wife works as an Assistant Attorney General in Minnesota AG Keith Ellison’s office. Talk about corruption.
On Thursday night, a gloating Lemon went on social media and ran his mouth. He did note that the Trump DOJ would try again to throw him in prison and seemed to cherish the idea of being a martyr.
In fact, Lemon dared the Trump Administration to turn him into “the next Jimmy Kimmel.”

@donlemon I’m not going ANYWHERE! This isn’t about justice, it’s about POWER…

LEMON: Look, I stand proud, and I stand tall. This is not a victory lap for me because this is not over. They’re gonna try again, and they’re gonna try again, and guess what? Here I am. Keep trying. That’s not gonna stop me from being a journalist. You’re not gonna diminish my voice.
Go ahead, make me into the new Jimmy Kimmel if you want. Because I’m not going anywhere, and I’m going to believe the same things whether you want to, whatever.
None of this is about justice. This is about power, and it’s about people who are incompetent.
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon took notice of Lemon’s dare and had a simple one-word response.

This indicates that the DOJ will not give up on holding Lemon accountable. The former CNN hack may want to hold off on any victory parade in the meantime.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Lemon livestreamed as anti-ICE protestors stormed a church in St. Paul because the pastor supposedly worked for ICE.
“This is the beginning of what’s going to happen here,” Lemon said as anti-ICE protestors shouted down the pastor and harassed parishioners.
The former CNN hack also admitted that he had prior knowledge that the agitators were going to enter a church and disrupt the sermon, saying he was embedded with them and BLM activist Nekima Armstrong.
Armstrong was arrested by the FBI on Thursday and charged with Conspiracy Against Rights, a federal crime that carries up to ten years in prison.
