Let’s be real, the MAGA politicians don’t care about you. With the government shut down, healthcare under attack, the National Guard deployed across the country, and ICE brutalizing communities, it’s hard not to feel exhausted by just how bleak things seem. But this is not the moment to check out, it’s the moment to stand up. Tonight, Don is joined by NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson to talk about why vigilance matters more than ever, how we can fight back, and how this moment compares to the injustices of the past. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s a reminder that silence is never an option. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics. Go to https://zbiotics.com/LEMON use LEMON at checkout for 15% off first time orders.

The news cycle is pure chaos...National Guard deployments, horrific ICE detainments, and a government still shut down. Things are looking pretty bleak right now. This morning, Don is joined by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to break it all down, from what’s really happening behind closed doors in Washington to why holding the line is more important than ever for Democrats. It’s a can’t-miss conversation about power, principle, and pushing back against the madness. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

The government is still shut down, ICE raids are terrorizing communities across the country, and the cruelty is off the charts. It’s despicable, but the question is, what can we actually do to speak out and push back? Then, Don is joined by Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva, who’s making headlines for promising to vote to release the Epstein files… if only Speaker Mike Johnson would let her be sworn in. Funny how that works, huh? Buckle up, it’s going to be a night of truth, outrage, and a healthy dose of side-eye. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

Good morning Lemon Nation. We've watched ICE brutalize communities for months, most recently in South Shore Chicago where children were dragged naked from their homes in the middle of the night. Trump and his MAGA goons are out of control and fascism is no longer a hypothetical. Join Don at 10am EST today to hear why we can't be apathetic in this time of crisis!

This morning we will show you live from outside of a New York courtroom as Diddy awaits his sentencing.

After being denied bail, he has remained detained until today's sentencing. Join Don at 10am EST to break it all down. This episode is sponsored by Ollie.

The government has officially shut down, and if you think things feel rough, it’s because they are. Republicans control both the House and the Senate, but instead of owning up to their mess, they’re busy pointing fingers at Democrats and spinning lies to cover their tracks. Tonight, Don is joined by our very own Lemon Legends to break it all down. From the chaos in Washington to what it means for everyday Americans, we’ll dive into just how screwed we all are and maybe find a few reasons to laugh through it. This episode is sponsored by Ollie.
