Nationwide Protests Erupt Over Immigration Enforcement Tactics
The Department of Justice has charged 30 additional individuals for their involvement in an anti-ICE protest at a Minnesota church, with former CNN anchor Don Lemon among the original defendants.
In a sweeping crackdown on anti-immigration enforcement demonstrations, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged 30 more people for their alleged roles in a protest at a Minnesota church last month. This latest action comes after the initial arrest of nine defendants, including former CNN anchor Don Lemon, who was among the original protesters.
The church protest, which took place in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was part of a larger nationwide movement against the tactics employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal immigration agencies. Activists have accused these agencies of using heavy-handed and inhumane methods in their efforts to apprehend and deport undocumented immigrants.
