Just to be clear. He is still being charged, they arraignment judge just set the bail to $0. .
So what he is being charged for? I mean what law did he ~~broke~~break?
They are charging him under two laws and well outside the intent of both. The first is what is informally called the Klan Act, a law enacted to protect black churches during reconstruction when they were targeted by the KKK. The second is called the FACE act, a law from the 90s that was intended to protect abortion clinics but in a compromise with conservatives protects churches as well - notably this law requires violence to have been inflicted so I have no idea how they justify using it, the original magistrate judge crossed it out on the warrants for the 3 protesters he agreed to charge.
This is all transparently vindictive prosecution of journalists who are unfriendly towards the administration. The protesters themselves should only be charged with trespassing or disturbing the peace at most, but the DoJ is entirely compromised into a weapon against the American people.
I'm sure both of these charges are about trying to troll Blacks and the left, too.
From the linked article:
The justice department charged Lemon and three others with civil rights crimes, saying they interfered with the exercise of religious freedom at a place of worship and conspired to do so.

Given the timing, this was clearly another failed attempt to distract from Epstein.
You mean the Epstein files that came out today, which mention Trump selling off 13 year old girls to be raped in “calendar girl” auctions at maralago?
The timing of his indictment was coordinated so that they announced they were going after him a week before the latest batch of Epstein files were released?
Or was it timed to be a few weeks after the last batch?
Genuinely not sure what this means.
He should sue Donvict for 100 billion dollars.
How about Georgia Fort? Do the gestapo still have her because she's not a famous millionaire?
It was never gonna stick, they just wanted their "content".
"content"?
