Protests in Minnesota: Journalists Arrested

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon and independent journalist Georgia Fort were arrested and charged with serious offenses during their coverage of protests against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minnesota. The decision has been described as a significant escalation of attacks on the press in the United States, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries stated that President Donald Trump is using law enforcement as a "weapon" against undesirable journalists.
