Crackpot Lefists Who Invaded Church Arrested, Possible Charges Under Federal FACE Act Ahead

FBI and Homeland Security Investigations agents have bagged the three leftist crackpots who invaded a church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday.

Escaping charges, at least for now, is hate-Trump leftist and disgraced CNN talker Don Lemon, thanks to a leftist federal magistrate who also freed a man who threatened to murder U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.

The crazies who invaded and terrified the pew-sitters apparently thought they were striking a blow against Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which has surged into Minneapolis to arrest dangerous illegal-alien sex and other criminals.

Amusingly, the trio faces charges under the FACE Act, which protects access to abortuaries.

Church Invasion

The gang, along with Black Lives Matter activists stationed in the pews to disrupt the service at Cities Church, was led by Nekima Levy Armstrong, a “civil rights activist,” the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported.

“David Easterwood, a pastor at Cities Church in St. Paul, is named in a pending class action lawsuit filed by the ACLU of Minnesota for aggressive tactics used by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE),” the newspaper reported:

When activists discovered Easterwood is a local pastor, they decided to mobilize, they said.

“This man is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, masquerading as a pastor,” said Nekima Levy Armstrong, a local attorney, activist and reverend.

What kind of “reverend” Armstrong is the newspaper didn’t disclose. But along for the attack were Chauntyll Louisa Allen and a bearded loudmouth, William Kelly. BLM goons in the pews chanted  “Justice for Renee Good,” the hate-ICE lesbian who nearly killed an ICE agent on January 7. The agent shot and killed her when she nearly ran him over with her SUV.

All three are in custody. After the illegal disruption of the service, Kelly dared Bondi to find and arrest him.

Wearing a “F**k Trump” wool cap, the hirsute leftist boldly bragged on video about the attack. Bondi posted it on X. “Yesterday, I went into a church with Nekima Armstrong, and I protested these white supremacists,” Kelly opens the video:

The pastor of the church is a f*****g ICE leader in the city.

The video segues to Kelly in the church. “As you can see all these pretend Christians, all these comfortable white people, who are living lavish, comfortable lives, while children are dragged into concentration camps,” the kook says.

“So you know Pam Bondi, you wanna come and arrest me, you wanna come give me charges, so be it,” Kelly says.

Wrote Bondi over the video: “Ok ✅”

“Listen loud and clear,” Bondi wrote over an X post about Armstrong’s arrest:

WE DO NOT TOLERATE ATTACKS ON PLACES OF WORSHIP.

The popular Jammies X feed posted video of Kelly’s arrest.

FACE Act

The assistant attorney general for civil rights, Harmeet Dhillon, repeatedly posted about the illegal invasion and warned that everyone involved would be arrested and charged. “Whoever paid for, coordinated, or participated in this attack made a big — BIG — mistake,” she wrote on X:

No worshipper in this country should ever feel intimidated in a house of God, and @TheJusticeDept will bring the full force of the law, as directed by @AGPamBondi

The gang of far-left agitators might well be charged under the FACE Act, Dhillon said on X.

The 1994 law — Federal Access to Clinic Entrances, 18 US Code 248 — doesn’t just protect women attempting to enter an abortion mill to murder an unborn baby. It also protects churches by criminalizing anyone who “by force or threat of force or by physical obstruction, intentionally injures, intimidates or interferes with or attempts to injure, intimidate or interfere with any person lawfully exercising or seeking to exercise the First Amendment right of religious freedom at a place of religious worship.”

If convicted, the three face hefty fines and a possible prison sentence.

For its part, the Star Tribune reported, the church is considering legal action against the leftists.

“The group of agitators jarringly disrupted our worship gathering,” the church told the newspaper:

They accosted members of our congregation, frightened children and created a scene marked by intimidation.

Helpfully, the hate-ICE attack and Kelly’s imprudent confession are on videotape.

Lemon Flits Away

Notorious homosexual Lemon, also there at the invasion, flitted away free, thanks to Micko, CBS News reported today.

“Micko previously worked as a federal public defender,” CBS noted:

Lemon’s attorney, Abbe Lowell, said in a statement Thursday that the magistrate’s actions “confirm the nature of Don’s First Amendment protected work this weekend in Minnesota as a reporter.”

“Should the Department of Justice continue with a stunning and troubling effort to silence and punish a journalist for doing his job, Don will call out their latest attack on the rule of law and fight any charges vigorously and thoroughly in court,” Lowell said.

This is the second time the anti-Bondi magistrate has moved against the attorney general.

As The New American reported in October, Micko sprung Tyler Maxon Avalos, who solicited Bondi’s murder on TikTok.

A TikTok user in Detroit reported “a threatening post against United States Attorney General Pam Bondi that had come across the user’s TikTok feed,” Avalos’ arrest affidavit alleges:

The TikTok user reported the threat as a murder for hire of US Attorney General Pam Bondi. The TikTok user reported that the threatening post was “Imposing a hit on Pam bondi for $45,000 posting it on tiktok his user name is @liminalvoidslip.”

Screenshots of the post show a photo “with a sniper-scope red dot on AG Bondi’s forehead,” the affidavit alleges.

The caption says “WANTED: Pam Bondi” / “REWARD: 45,000” / “DEAD OR ALIVE” / “(PREFERABLY DEAD).”

Avalos “has a multi-state conviction history including a July 2022 felony stalking conviction from Dakota County, an August 2016 felony third-degree domestic battery from Polk County, Florida,” the affidavit says, “and an April 2016 misdemeanor domestic assault from Dakota County, which appears to have been reduced from a felony domestic assault by strangulation charge.”

Minnesota court records show Avalos’ lengthy criminal records, including the conviction for misdemeanor stalking and two dismissed felony counts: “Domestic Assault (Intentionally Inflict or Attempt to Inflict Bodily Harm)” and “Assault by Strangulation.”

Avalos has also faced paternity and child-support cases, and has multiple driving infractions.

But by Micko’s lights, he didn’t belong in jail after the threat to Bondi.

Lemon might consider himself in good company.
