Don Lemon: My how their opinion on the FACE act has changed in a year.

[Ms. Toad]

This is the law used to arrest Don Lemon

President Trump campaigned on the promise of ending the weaponization of the federal
government and has recently directed all federal departments and agencies to identify and correct
the past weaponization of law enforcement.

To many Americans, prosecutions and civil actions under the Freedom of Access to
Clinic Entrances Act ("FACE Act" ) have been the prototypical example of this weaponization.
And for good reason. Even though more than 100 crisis pregnancy centers, pro-life
organizations, and churches were attacked in the immediate aftermath of the Dobbs decision,
nearly all prosecutions under the FACE Act have been against pro-life protesters. That is not the
even-handed administration of justice.

To address this concern and to ensure that federal law enforcement and prosecutorial
resources are devoted to the most serious violations of federal law, future abortion-related FACE
Act prosecutions and civil actions will be permitted only in extraordinary circumstances, or in
cases presenting significant aggravating factors, such as death, serious bodily harm, or serious
property damage. Cases not presenting significant aggravating factors can adequately be
addressed under state or local law. Additionally, until further notice, no new abortion-related
FACE Act actions--criminal or civil-will be permitted without authorization from the
Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division.

Or more accurately, weaponization is only appropriate if they do it.

2. The first paragraph is a joke.

That is EXACTLY what Trump’s cabal is doing. Weaponizing federal government.

I guess it’s only OK if you are a Republican.
