Lemon LIVE at 5 | Who Is This Week's SOUR LEMON?! - March 7th, 2025

Good morning, Lemon Nation! Let's dive into the latest twist: new video analysis suggests that footage from Epstein’s jail cell may have been altered. Government officials, of course, say there’s nothing to see here. Totally normal, right? Meanwhile, Ghislaine Maxwell is still dangling her offer to testify before Congress if she’s granted immunity. You know, just minor immunity for a woman accused of helping run an international sex trafficking ring. And through it all, Trump continues to spiral, ducking the press and throwing out distractions like candy at a parade. The question isn’t “What happens next?”...it’s “How much worse can it get?” Tune in. We’ll break it all down with receipts, reality, and just the right amount of rage.

We’ve got whiplash-level updates on the Trump-Epstein-Maxwell mess. First up: Ghislaine Maxwell has reportedly offered to testify before Congress, but only if she gets immunity. Yes, immunity. From a woman accused by multiple victims of being even worse than Epstein? You can’t make this stuff up. And just when you thought Trump couldn’t make this situation any more unhinged, he goes and outdoes himself. After previously claiming he cut ties with Epstein because he was “a creep,” Trump now says it was actually because Epstein “stole” an underage girl from him. We’ll just leave that there. Joining us tonight to unpack all of this is the brilliant Katie Phang and legal analyst Dina Doll. Buckle up, it’s going to be a wild one.

The Trump-Epstein scandal has dominated headlines, sparked lawsuits, and triggered full-blown meltdowns from Mar-a-Lago to MAGA Twitter.

Just when you thought the Trump-Epstein saga couldn’t get weirder… Trump now claims he cut ties with Jeffrey Epstein not because of his predatory behavior, but because Epstein poached some of his employees. Seriously. Tonight, Don is joined once again by Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein’s brother, to break down the latest twists in this deeply unsettling and increasingly absurd scandal. Plus, we’ll unpack Trump’s desperate attempts to change the subject: accusing Obama of treason, calling for investigations into Beyoncé and Oprah, and lashing out at windmills (yes, again). It’s chaos, but it’s chaos with consequences. Let’s get into it. This episode is brought to you by Magic Spoon. Get 5 dollars off your next order at https://MagicSpoon.com/LEMON.

Today, we’re taking a moment to step back from the noise and focus on the heartbreaking reality unfolding in Gaza. With mounting civilian casualties, reports of mass starvation, and widespread devastation, more voices, both at home and abroad, are beginning to call Israel’s actions what they are: potential war crimes. Don breaks down the latest developments in the Gaza-Israel conflict, the growing global outcry, and what justice and accountability might look like. This isn’t about politics, it’s about humanity. Let’s talk about what’s really happening, and why the world can’t look away. This episode is brought to you by Mint Mobile.

Trump is spiraling, and the distractions are getting wilder by the day. First, it was accusing Obama of treason. Then came his sudden crusade to prosecute Beyoncé and Oprah (yes, seriously). And now he’s ranting about windmills again. But let’s be real, it’s all an increasingly desperate attempt to shift attention away from the one thing he really doesn’t want to talk about...the Epstein files. Despite once promising transparency, Trump’s name is in the files, and now even some of his die-hard supporters are feeling duped. Is this the beginning of a MAGA mutiny? Or just another week in the circus? Join us as we break it all down with receipts, reality, and all the rage. This episode is brought to you by Magic Spoon.
