"These are tough people. So, this is what the people are trying to protect, because all ICE wants to do is get them out of our country, bring them to the prisons, and jails, and mental institutions from where they came. That's all they wanna do. They're patriots and they have to be abused by guys like Don Lemon, who's a loser, lightweight."
"Although Lemon was merely recording the incident as it unfolded, he landed on the Department of Justice's radar due to his presence at the church. During his livestream, Lemon insisted that the ones storming the church had the right to do so under the First Amendment of the Constitution. I'm sure people here don't like it, he said in the church, but protests are not comfortable."
Donald Trump criticized Don Lemon for recording an anti-ICE protest in which demonstrators stormed a Minneapolis church. Protesters believed a pastor also served as director of the ICE field office in St. Paul, though the Department of Homeland Security had not confirmed the claim. Lemon livestreamed the event and said protesters had a First Amendment right to act, drawing attention from the Department of Justice because of his presence. Trump used a White House briefing to praise ICE, display mugshots of alleged criminals, defend the pastor, and call Lemon a "loser, lightweight," condemning the church incident.
