In a move that perfectly encapsulates the swamp's revolving door of corruption, disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon has hired Abbe Lowell—the same attorney who helped Hunter Biden skate on serious federal charges—to defend him after his arrest at an anti-ICE protest.
Lemon, who was bounced from CNN after years of pushing left-wing propaganda, was arrested while participating in protests against President Trump's promised mass deportation operations. Now he's calling in the big guns—literally the same lawyer who negotiated Hunter's sweetheart plea deal that helped the First Son avoid serious prison time for tax evasion and gun charges.
Lowell, who has made a career out of helping Democrats escape accountability, is already crying about "unprecedented First Amendment attacks" on his new client. Where was this constitutional concern when the Biden DOJ was prosecuting January 6th protesters for exercising their First Amendment rights?
The Swamp Protects Its Own
This hiring reveals everything you need to know about how the establishment operates. When conservatives protest, they get the book thrown at them and branded as "domestic terrorists." But when leftists like Lemon break the law protesting legitimate immigration enforcement, they get to hire the same high-powered attorneys who help presidential families escape justice.
"It's the same playbook every time—break the law, hire a connected lawyer, claim persecution, and hope the media covers for you," one Trump administration official told reporters.
The irony is rich: Lemon spent years on CNN attacking President Trump and promoting the Russia hoax, and now he's hiring the attorney who helped cover up the Biden family's actual corruption scandals.
While hardworking Americans face the full force of federal prosecution for far less, the media elite and political class continue to play by different rules. Will Lowell work the same magic for Lemon that he did for Hunter? And how long will patriots tolerate this two-tiered justice system?
