Lemon LIVE at 5 | Trump's Mission: NOT Accomplished - June 24th, 2025

Lemon Nation, this is beyond reckless—it's dangerous. As we’ve been covering since the story first broke, The Atlantic reports that Trump’s national security team accidentally texted a reporter their war plans through a group chat. Yes, they actually included a journalist in a live thread about upcoming U.S. military strikes in Yemen. This isn’t just incompetence—it’s a full-blown national security failure. And according to the law, some of the people involved could legitimately face jail time. Naturally, Trump is already trying to deflect blame, because accountability is never part of the plan. Tonight, Don is joined by activist and The Bulwark writer Cameron Kasky to break it all down—the incompetence, the legal stakes, and how we got to a point where texting war plans is somehow not the biggest scandal of a presidential term.

Lemon Nation, this one is next-level incompetence. According to a wild new report from The Atlantic, Trump’s national security team—yes, the people in charge of military operations—accidentally added a reporter to a group chat about upcoming U.S. airstrikes in Yemen. You read that right: they texted their war plans to the press. We’re talking about a White House so careless, so chaotic, it makes a group project in high school look organized. And at the center of it all? Pete Hegseth and Mike Waltz—two walking security risks with way too much power. This morning, we’re breaking down the sheer incompetence, the danger it poses, and why this story should have everyone sounding the alarm. Join us live! Learn more about your ad choices.

Lemon Nation, you’re not gonna believe this one—actually, you might. According to a new bombshell from The Atlantic, members of Trump’s national security team accidentally texted a reporter their war plans. Yes, really. They literally included a journalist in a group chat discussing upcoming military strikes in Yemen. How does this even happen? And from the same people who screamed about Hillary Clinton’s emails like it was the end of the republic. Tonight, we’re breaking down this wild, reckless story, what it says about the people in charge, and why it should scare all of us. Join us live! Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to The Sour Lemon Special! Every week, we break down the most outrageous, corrupt, and downright awful behavior from the people in power—and this time, we’ve got a stacked lineup of contestants. Who will take home the title of this week’s Sour Lemon? You decide! Here are the nominees: 🍋 Greg Gutfeld – Fox News’ resident edgelord who thinks yelling 'shut the f*** up' at the Chief Justice is journalism. 🍋 Tom Homan – America’s angriest thumb is back, proudly announcing he doesn’t care what judges say—as if that’s a flex and not a confession. 🍋 Howard Lutnick – Commerce Secretary by day, very casual Tesla hype man by night. Insider trading? Never heard of her! 🍋 Steve Bannon – Least showered man in America says Trump’s running for a third term in 2028. Clearly, math—and the Constitution—are not part of the war room strategy. 🍋 Pam Bondi – Calling Tesla vandalism ‘terrorism’ because nothing says national security threat like a cracked windshield. Pam, go touch some grass. 🍋 That One White House Reporter – Asked for Derek Chauvin to be pardoned… on purpose. Bold move for someone trying to cosplay as a journalist while saying the quiet part out loud. Who deserves the title? Who was the absolute worst this week? Join Don and Godfrey to break it all down!
