The Don Lemon Show

This morning we’re taking a step back to look at where we are and how we got here, and it’s looking more and more like we’re living in a police state. From unchecked federal force to escalating enforcement, civil liberties are under strain and public trust is evaporating.
The ICE crisis in Minneapolis has exploded into something far bigger than one city. After the deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti, protesters have taken to the streets in bitter cold, and the movement has spread beyond Minnesota as people across the country demand accountability and the removal of ICE from communities.

Tonight, Don sits down with Hollywood Unlocked’s Jason Lee to break down the increasingly bizarre alliance between Donald Trump and Nicki Minaj. What’s going on here and what does it mean politically?
Then we pivot to serious national crises. Don is joined by friend of the show Monique Pressley to unpack the escalating ICE crisis that’s ignited protests and outrage, and the FBI’s search of a Fulton County election office in Georgia connected to the Trump-era push to revisit the 2020 election, a move critics say is part of a broader attack on democracy.
Join us live as we break down the absurd and the alarming all in one night. 🍋

Don goes off on Megyn Kelly’s cold, inhumane response to the killing of Alex Pretti by ICE agents. This isn’t an isolated slip-up for Megyn, it’s part of a long pattern of appalling commentary that excuses state violence and dehumanizes victims. Don breaks down why this kind of rhetoric is dangerous, and why it deserves to be called out, loudly.

This morning we’re diving into the deepening rift in MAGA after the latest federal shootings in Minneapolis, first Renée Good, then Alex Pretti. Both were killed by immigration agents in a crackdown that’s sparked protests, anger, and bipartisan blowback. Even some Republicans are publicly criticizing the Trump administration’s response.
Instead of owning the chaos, MAGA officials are backstabbing and finger-pointing. Kristi Noem is blaming Stephen Miller, Miller is tossing blame at DHS, and Donald Trump is blaming anyone but himself, all while trying to shift the narrative and tamp down outrage.
Of course, accountability is nowhere in sight, just damage control and political theater. 🍋
