A report from TMZ confirms this (emphasis is ours):

Local and federal authorities are investigating after a group of anti-ICE protesters crashed a Minnesota church service … and one of the demonstrators tells TMZ she’d still do it all over again.

Here’s the deal … the DOJ and local police are investigating after protesters interrupted a service at the Cities Church in St. Paul … which is getting major headlines because Don Lemon was in the mix live-streaming the incident.

Chauntyll Allen, leader of Black Lives Matter Twin Cities, who was among the group, tells TMZ … the jarring protest inside the church was necessary to make clear to the parishioners that having a pastor who is also an ICE official is unacceptable.

Chauntyll, who’s also a St. Paul School Board member, argues the community is being ripped apart by ICE … so the group disrupting a church service — and upsetting some parishioners — in comparison is pretty small potatoes.

More from Alpha News:

Nekima Levy Armstrong, a prominent activist, said in a Facebook post that she co-organized the disruption along with Chauntyll Allen, a St. Paul Public Schools board member. Videos show Allen leading chants inside the church.

Allen posted a photo of Lemon and Armstrong outside Cities Church, accusing congregants of following a “false prophet,” according to a screenshot of a Facebook post obtained by Alpha News.

Allen has served on the school board since January 2020 and is also a founder of Black Lives Matter Twin Cities, according to her LinkedIn.

This should not be shocking, but it is.

Of course there were school board members as part of the church assault team. Of course.

Will the Saint Paul school board remove Ms. Allen from her position? They certainly should.

People who invade churches and terrorize children do not belong on school boards.
