Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a post Friday on X that Lemon was arrested, as were three others, "in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota."
Can they arrest people without telling them or their lawyers what they are being charged with?
Right you are to ask! The answer should be no. According to media lore this has always been optional in the USA. Anecdotally also in reality, at least until now. More recently it seems to be the norm.
Of course due process and such still exist, but this whole admin works around the principle that higher-ups have absolute power to simply dictate how things are done. Wait, “dictate”? So, what do we call the whole thing then?
