This morning, Don responds to Nicki Minaj’s latest comments and calls out how she’s increasingly acting as a MAGA mouthpiece, echoing talking points instead of engaging with facts. When celebrities start laundering political propaganda and attacking journalists for doing their jobs, it deserves to be called out. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

If you haven't heard, MAGA once again wants Don arrested. During Don's 6+ hour twin city livestream yesterday he reported live from a church in St. Paul where protesters gathered in response to allegations that one of the church's pastors is an ICE official. As always, Don chronicled the events as a journalist and interviewed churchgoers, protesters, and the pastor about what was happening. Why is MAGA so mad? Hear what Don has to say on Lemon Live at 5.

Happy MLK Day, everyone. This morning we’re bringing you something special. Don is speaking at the 2026 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Annual Breakfast, presented by PUSH for Excellence and the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. In a moment defined by division, fear, and moral testing, we ask a vital question: What would Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. do in today’s climate? How would he confront Trump’s America? What would courage, justice, and nonviolence look like right now? Join Don live for this powerful event as we reflect on Dr. King’s legacy, not as history, but as a living challenge, and consider how his vision calls us to act today.

Tensions remain extremely high as local communities continue to push back, and now we’re hearing from people on the ground who are living through this chaos firsthand, voices that show just how visceral and frightening these operations have become. When will this violence stop? How far are federal agents willing to go? And will anyone ever be held accountable for these actions? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

Don sits down with journalist and CNN legal analyst and author of Five Bullets: The Story of Bernie Goetz, New York’s Explosive ’80s, and the Subway Vigilante Trial That Divided the Nation, Elliot Williams to talk about his new book and how its themes echo in today’s chaos. Williams’s Five Bullets revisits the infamous 1984 Bernhard Goetz subway shooting and the divisive trial that followed, exploring race, crime, fear, and how media and politics shaped public perception. As a former federal prosecutor and senior official in the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security, Williams brings a unique perspective on how agencies like U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement have changed over time. He and Don discuss how enforcement priorities and the lack of humanity or training in some federal agencies today contrast with how law and justice should function, and why understanding history matters now more than ever.

This morning we’re covering the death of an ICE detainee at a detention facility in Texas, another devastating chapter in a pattern that is becoming impossible to ignore. While all the details have not yet been made public, reporting indicates that the medical examiner is likely to classify the death as a homicide, raising urgent and alarming questions. Why are there so many deaths connected to ICE detention facilities? What conditions are people being held in? And why does accountability always seem to vanish when these cases come to light? We’ll break down what is known so far, what remains unclear, and why this incident fits into a broader picture of cruelty, neglect, and lawlessness inside the immigration detention system. Most importantly, we’ll ask the question families and advocates keep asking, will anyone ever be held responsible? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
