Rogue Judge REJECTS DOJ’s Attempt to Charge Don Lemon for Storming Minneapolis Church

The Trump DOJ is bringing charges against several left-wing agitators who stormed a church in Minneapolis on Sunday.

Already, three people have been arrested.

BREAKING: Several Anti-ICE Agitators Who Stormed Minneapolis Church ARRESTED

After news broke that the prominent leaders of the church attack were getting arrested, many folks wondered why Don Lemon wasn't among them.

Now, we have the answer.

As it turns out, the DOJ tried to bring charges against ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon today, but a rogue federal magistrate judge rejected the bid.

As you probably recall, Don Lemon personally harassed the pastor of the Minneapolis church on Sunday.

Here's a clip of that:

Yet, for some reason, the judge refused to approve the charges against Don Lemon -- despite signing off on the charges against the other agitators.

But, it's not over yet.

Pam Bondi is reportedly furious and will pursue other options to charge Lemon.

CBS News reported:

A Minnesota federal magistrate judge refused to sign a complaint charging independent journalist Don Lemon in connection with a protest inside a church in St. Paul on Sunday, multiple sources familiar with the proceedings told CBS News.

"The attorney general is enraged at the magistrate's decision," said a source familiar with the matter. Attorney General Pam Bondi has been in Minnesota for two days, as the Justice Department has sought to surge prosecutorial and law enforcement resources there.

A different source stressed that the process is not over, and the Justice Department could find other avenues to charge Lemon.

On Thursday morning, Bondi announced two arrests connected to the church protest — Chauntyll Louisa Allen, who serves on the St. Paul School Board, and Nekima Levy Armstrong. Bondi alleged that Armstrong was involved in organizing the protest.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed that a magistrate judge approved charges against Allen and Armstrong.

Disgraceful judge.

Why is he trying to protect Don Lemon?

This makes NO sense. Lemon was right there on camera with them. Why did a judge sign off on the first three arrests and not Lemon??? @AGPamBondi @FBIDirectorKash @FBI
