Cities Church was targeted because Pastor David Easterwood also serves as the acting field director for Immigration and Customs Enforcement in St. Paul. Ironically, Easterwood wasn’t even present at the service.
That didn’t stop the demonstrators from terrorizing parishioners who had nothing to do with federal immigration policy.
Pastor Jonathan Parnell, who was leading worship at the time, later described the scene as “shameful.”
Don Lemon Livestreams Chaos and Lectures Parishioners
Instead of condemning the disruption, former CNN anchor Don Lemon actively participated.
Lemon livestreamed the incident on his YouTube channel, following protesters into the church and narrating the chaos as it unfolded.
When Pastor Parnell confronted the activists and asked them to leave, Lemon inserted himself into the confrontation, lecturing the pastor about the First Amendment.
At one point, Lemon kissed the protest organizer on the cheek during the livestream, leaving no doubt where his sympathies lay.
When a parishioner calmly explained that free speech does not give anyone the right to invade a private worship service, Lemon’s response suggested the families should simply endure it.
That performance quickly drew federal attention.
DOJ Investigation Triggered Over Possible FACE Act Violations
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon announced a federal investigation into possible violations of the FACE Act, a 1994 law that makes it a crime to interfere with religious worship.
Dhillon warned that houses of worship are not public protest zones and placed Lemon “on notice.”
Despite the scrutiny, Lemon continued insisting he was merely practicing “journalism.”
Megyn Kelly Delivers a Blistering Rebuke
That explanation didn’t fly with Megyn Kelly.
During a SiriusXM segment with Michael Knowles, Kelly unloaded on Lemon in a moment that immediately went viral.
“Don Lemon who reveled in it and lectured half of the parishioners about how they really had an obligation to sit there and fking take it, that this was American as apple pie, sit there and fking take it,” Kelly said.
“That was Don Lemon’s basic message to these parishioners.”
Kelly then delivered her blunt assessment.
“He’s a disgusting fool.”
She added that potential criminal charges were secondary to the moral failure on display.
“Now there’s a question about whether he’s also a criminal that’s kind of irrelevant to me. If he broke the law, I’m fine seeing him prosecuted. But I actually think what’s more important is how disgusting he is.”
Kelly Says the Attack Was About Faith, Not Politics
Kelly argued the incident wasn’t really about ICE at all, but about contempt for Christianity.
She described the protesters as “godless” activists who worship “the god of wokeness, the god of leftism.”
“We’ve talked about how uniformly they’re unattractive. They tend to be fat, unkempt, you can tell they smell bad,” Kelly said.
“And the other piece of it is they’re godless, so they think nothing, nothing of going into a mass and disrupting people’s private time with Jesus.”
Kelly explained that many Americans attend church at their most vulnerable moments, seeking comfort, forgiveness, or hope.
To leftist radicals, she said, none of that matters.
Trump Administration Responds Swiftly
Federal officials wasted no time responding.
Attorney General Pam Bondi personally reached out to Pastor Parnell.
“Attacks against law enforcement and the intimidation of Christians are being met with the full force of federal law,” Bondi wrote on social media.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed the warning.
“President Trump will not tolerate the intimidation and harassment of Christians in their sacred places of worship,” Leavitt stated.
The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division launched an investigation, and the FBI became involved. Every individual who participated in the church invasion is now under federal scrutiny.
Democrat Silence Raises Questions
Notably absent from the response were Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who remained silent for nearly a full day.
Kelly said that silence spoke volumes.
“This is the line beyond which we cannot allow them to cross.”
She warned that something dark has been unleashed in America.
“I’ve never felt so aware of demonic forces around us. I truly haven’t.”
The message was unmistakable.
The left crossed a red line, and millions of Christians saw it happen.
Who would want Don Lemon to kiss them even on the cheek. Just the thought about where his lips may have been at one point is enough to make you throw up if he tried to kiss you.🤮 Most people will not even allow Don Lemon to kiss their feet let alone their face. A disgusting vile nasty individual lacking total common sense!
Te Mayor Of Minneapolis & The Governor Of Minnesota Must Both Be Arrested For Abuse of The Constitution & Stealing Billions In Taxpayer Money!
When Don Lemon and the Mob entered this church No One knew whether these people were ‘protesters’ or highjackers looking to take everyone hostage!! Someone with a CCP would have been within their legal rights to open fire to defend themselves!! These Are Not peaceful protesters, they are Domestic Terrorists!! And Should Be Prosecuted As Such!! Don Lemon Is Disgusting Vile Pig, and so are the rest of His Mob!! Lock Them All Away For A Long Time!!
