The FACE Act Trap: Don Lemon Filmed His Own Federal Crime w/ Mike Davis
Season 1
Episode 99
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
Don Lemon thought he was exposing a story, but Mike Davis argues he was actually documenting his own felony.
In this episode, we break down exactly how Lemon’s disruption of a Christian service violates 18 U.S.C. § 248 (The FACE Act) and the KKK Act of 1871. Mike Davis explains why this footage isn't journalism—it's federal evidence.
We cover:
- The Trap: How Lemon's own camera crew created the evidence against him.
- The Law: The specific statutes that could lead to federal prison.
- The Double Standard: Why the DOJ hunts grandmas for praying but ignores this textbook violation.
"Don Lemon can go to hell, and he should go to federal prison first." — Mike Davis
