We CANNOT Let Trump ARREST JOURNALISTS w/ George Conway - Fast Politics w/ Molly Jong-Fast



NY 12 Congressional candidate and legal scholar George Conway and Molly Jong-Fast delve into the escalating authoritarian threats posed by Donald Trump's administration, focusing on the alarming arrest of journalist Don Lemon under dubious pretenses and the broader attacks on press freedom.

Conway critiques the misuse of federal power for political retribution, the erosion of First Amendment rights, and the complicity or cowardice of political figures who fail to act. Citing examples ranging from ICE overreach to judicial resistance and the chilling release and retraction of Epstein-related documents, the conversation paints a deeply troubling picture of constitutional violations, maladministration, and the fragility of democratic norms.

The ultimate call is for accountability, with Conway advocating impeachment as a constitutional remedy to prevent further damage, while highlighting the essential role of journalists and civil society in defending truth and democratic principles. - 01/30/2026.
