HERE'S WHAT YOU DO IF TRUMP TRIES TO OVERTHROW THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS:
We go on national strike! If you are allied with democracy, do not show up for work. Grind the country to a halt. If the rich take away our democratic stability, we take away their economic stability.

Yes — that's why I hope folks focus on indy journalist Georgia Fort, arrested for covering the same church protest, an Emmy award winner who went out on her own to focus on social justice issues — & does not have the vast resources and celebrity lawyer available to her that Lemon has.
This is about forcing Don Lemon to spend money and time defending himself.
"“They probably don’t have any expectation that this prosecution will stick," legal expert tells me. "But they do know they will put Don Lemon through the grinder in the meantime."

ICE is already arresting journalists, and soon Palantir will be helping ICS go after people who oppose them online.
Consider this your reminder to start following non-US news sources now, and to find a non-US VPN now.

As scary as the arrest of Lemon is, what’s depressed me most today is the way so many media reports (and reporters) have covered this in such a matter of fact way. Multiple judges said there was no basis to do this —and yet they did it anyway.
