"I just think Don Lemon is just one of the most irrelevant human beings on the planet and, you know, I would like to say I think of him as an irrelevant guy, but I actually don't ever think of him, so it's even more irrelevant than that, said Beck during an interview with Department of Justice official Harmeet Dhillon."
"Well, I'm going to reserve comment on that specific fact pattern, but let's just take a hypothetical, okay? A hypothetical where a podcaster, once a news anchor, is deciding that he's learning of a crime in progress. It's a bank robbery, okay? And he's friends with the bank robbers and he sympathizes with them because he agrees with what they're going to spend the money on."
Glenn Beck defended former CNN host Don Lemon after the Trump administration threatened to charge Lemon for recording anti-ICE protesters storming a Minneapolis church service. Beck called Lemon an irrelevant human being but questioned whether Lemon violated law unless he actively participated. Department of Justice official Harmeet Dhillon described a hypothetical in which a former news anchor joins and aids criminals and streams a crime, calling that fact pattern dubious. Dhillon said investigators are examining facts and cautioned that someone posting hours of video online should consider legal counsel. Beck said Dhillon's remarks would alarm people like Lemon.
