U.S. — Self-proclaimed journalist Don Lemon was arrested on Friday for allegedly raiding a church service and intimidating its congregation, prompting experts to warn that such actions taken by the DOJ could be a slippery slope that leads to arresting politicians and other people who deserve it.
"This is an outrage," sociological analyst Kelvin Grimp said. "If we start enforcing laws, elected officials and other criminals could be in really big trouble."
According to sources, approximately 99% of the U.S. Congress and up to half of the nation's governors would be behind bars if America were to continue down this slippery slope of enforcing laws and prosecuting criminals. Republicans and Democrats alike have criticized the Trump administration for perpetuating the myth that well-connected people can be arrested just for breaking the law.
"What's next? We start rounding up undocumented migrants or arresting people for murder and rape?" Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said. "Welcome to Trump's America!"
In response to the current unrest in the country, former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton published an op-ed in the New York Times discrediting all laws she doesn't like. "I have long held that no one is above the law except for me," she wrote, "but that might be changing, and it's an utter disgrace. It's not what our founders intended."
At publishing time, experts had also issued an urgent warning that holding people in prominent positions accountable could lead to people in prominent positions being held accountable.
