Lemon LIVE at 5 | Trump Is Threatening Protesters! - June 10th, 2025

Hey there Lemon Nation! We have some exclusive insight into the Diddy trial. We are joined by attorney and legal analyst Symone Redwine to break it all down! Then...let's dive into Pride. The rainbows are still up, the hashtags still trending, but the joy feels a little quieter. Why? Because while we celebrate visibility, MAGA is waging an all-out war on it. Corporate America? Folding faster than a lawn chair. Companies once flaunting rainbows are now cowering in the face of backlash, choosing profit over principle. Because apparently, “inclusion” is only marketable when it’s easy. So if you’re angry, you’re not alone. If you’re scared, you’re not alone. And if you’re ready to fight back? You’re exactly where you need to be. 🌈✊ This episode is brought to you by the Freedom From Religion Foundation. Go to https://FFRF.US/Freedom or text DON to 511 511 and become a member today.

Republican Senator Joni Ernst responded to concerns about Medicaid cuts with the ever-comforting words: “We’re all going to die.” Cool cool cool. Tonight, we’re unpacking the very real consequences of that mindset, from RFK Jr. and HHS slashing vaccine research funding, to the Trump administration quietly limiting COVID vaccine access, to MAGA gutting support for our nation’s top scientific research institutions. Public health? Who needs it! Join us as we ask: Is this just cruelty as policy, or is there an actual plan? Either way, buckle up. The nihilism is bipartisan, but the damage is disproportionately MAGA. Let’s break it all down with facts, fury, and just enough humor to survive the news cycle.

Legal analyst, political commentator, and host of Make It Make Sense Daily, Monique Pressley is back with another episode of The Week With Monique! This time, we’re talking about pardons...Trump-style. Once a solemn and rare presidential power, pardons have now become a VIP perk for anyone who can offer Trump enough praise and cash. Fraud? Violence? Treason-lite? No problem, just kiss the ring and open your wallet. Monique breaks down how Trump has turned clemency into a loyalty program for the rich, the corrupt, and the sycophantic. What does this mean for justice in America? Let’s make it make sense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Just what we needed...more chaos. Tonight on Lemon Live at 5, Don is back with the Lemon Legends to break down the latest headlines. First up: Are we staring down another pandemic? The Department of Health and Human Services just pulled funding for the bird flu vaccine… because why not gamble with public health? Then, in a legal whiplash moment, an appeals court has frozen the freeze —meaning Trump’s tariffs are back on… for now. Who's keeping track anymore?
