LEMON DROP | Don On The Scene: Senator Jacky Rosen Says Trump Is NOT A King!

The conclave has spoken and the world has a new Pope. He’s a centrist, aiming to balance tradition with modernity. But of course, that’s not sitting well with the MAGA crowd, who were apparently hoping for a pope that quoted Fox News and issued communion with a side of culture war. Now, right-wing Twitter is in meltdown mode, accusing the Vatican of “going woke” (because what isn’t woke these days?) and demanding a pope who reflects their version of morality.

Trump’s new pick for Surgeon General is raising eyebrows...and blood pressure. Known for pushing pseudo-science and questioning actual medical consensus (because of course), she’s exactly the kind of anti-expert the MAGA base usually loves. But here’s the twist: her nomination is causing serious infighting within the movement. Turns out, not everyone is on board with Trump's pick. So what does this say about the future of healthcare in America? And what happens when political loyalty trumps medical qualifications? This episode is sponsored by Shopify.

The chaos continues under the Trump administration, and today’s headlines are a brutal reminder of just how messy things have gotten. Fed Chair Jerome Powell is now warning of stagflation.

Oh, and while America spirals, the world is watching the Vatican as the conclave prepares to choose a new Pope. So… no pressure. Let's break down the economic instability, the transportation chaos, and what to expect as the Catholic Church looks for its next leader...all while the U.S. continues its descent into dysfunction.

In the Trump administration, the line between journalism and propaganda isn’t just blurry, it’s practically nonexistent. The White House is now openly sharing content from hyper-partisan outlets, cherry-picking spin over substance and pushing narratives that serve the MAGA agenda, facts optional. But here’s the complication: the First Amendment protects it all, from Pulitzer-winning journalists to rage-filled podcasters to TikTok influencers ranting from the front seat of their car. So how do we separate real reporting from state-sanctioned noise? And what happens when the most powerful office in the country becomes just another partisan media outlet? Journalist Jacob Ward breaks it all down! Catch Jacob Ward's Warning every Wednesday at 2pm ET on The Don Lemon Show! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In today’s Oval Office meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Carney, Trump once again leaned into his favorite fantasy: annexing Canada. After Carney firmly asserted that Canada is not for sale, Trump smirked and replied, “Never say never.” Yes, this is real life. As America spirals through economic instability and global backlash, Trump is out here cosplaying land baron like it’s 1867. This kind of strongman land-grab nonsense isn’t just embarrassing, it’s isolating the U.S. further on the world stage. Let's break down the latest diplomatic facepalm and what it says about Trump’s obsession with power, borders, and ignoring reality. This episode is sponsored by Shopify.
