DOJ Considers Charges Against MN Church Protesters AND Former CNN Anchor
The assistant attorney general for civil rights says the DOJ will pursue criminal charges against the group of people who stormed a church where they believed its pastor worked for an ICE field office. Ex CNN anchor Don Lemon was with the group and live-streamed before, during and after the protesters stormed the church. Amy and T.J. discuss their thoughts on what took place and whether “committing journalism” as Lemon put it, is a justification for covering the protest.

“I'm Having To Relearn How To Do Things Again.” What We Can ALL Learn From Venus Williams’ Loss and Record Setting Match
At the age of 45, seven time grand slam winner Venus Williams broke the Australian Open record as the oldest-ever women’s player in the tournament’s history. Williams first competed in the Australian Open when she was 17, three years before her opponent, 24-year-old Olga Danilovic was born. Even though Williams ultimately lost the match, she walked off the court to a standing ovation with a big smile and wave, saying she was really proud of her effort because she’s playing better with each match. What inspiration for us all to get back out there, and do what we love, no matter our age. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Meantime, Governor Tim Walz has said he has the Minnesota National Guard on standby to also go in and protect the streets, potentially setting up a disturbing scenario of federal troops and state troops with very different agendas.
