Former CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested by federal agents in Los Angeles on January 29, 2026, in connection with an anti-ICE protest that disrupted a church service in Minnesota earlier that month. He was released the next day without bond and vowed to fight the charges, calling it an attack on journalism. The incident has sparked debates about press freedom under the Trump administration.

Rapper Nicki Minaj unleashed a homophobic tirade against journalist Don Lemon after he covered an anti-ICE protest that disrupted a Minnesota church service. Lemon clapped back hard, calling her an ignorant grifter who doesn't support her Black and gay fans. Now, investigations are brewing from both local police and the DOJ.
