Lemon LIVE at 5 | Get Ready with Don & Tim Halloween Special 🎃

It’s been a day, y’all. First up, Katie Miller, wife of the creepy, xenophobic architect of America’s worst immigration policies, Stephen Miller, had an absolute meltdown after being called out. We’ll unpack what set her off and what it says about the MAGA victim complex in full display. Then, we’ll turn to the looming end of SNAP benefits. What does this mean for families already struggling to put food on the table, and what can be done about it? Don’s joined tonight by political strategist Keith Edwards and The Atlantic’s Tom Nichols to break down the outrage, the economics, and the stakes for everyday Americans.

Don sits down with Missouri agroforestry farmer and friend of the show Will Westmoreland, along with a panel of farmers from across the country, to talk about how Trump’s policies are hitting rural America where it hurts most, in their fields, their businesses, and their livelihoods. After the election, headlines painted farmers as a monolith that overwhelmingly backed Trump. But the truth is more complicated and many farmers, including some who once supported him, are starting to see just how damaging MAGA’s policies have been for their communities. From tariffs to trade, subsidies to soil, this is an honest look at the people growing our food and what happens when politics plows right through the heartland. Learn more about your ad choices.

Let’s be honest, at this point, it’s starting to feel like the Trump administration is actively trying to kill us. He wants to resume nuclear testing, SNAP benefits are running out, and healthcare is about to become unaffordable for millions of Americans. The future’s looking less “great again” and more post-apocalyptic chic. So what’s the plan here? Is Trump just incompetent, or is this all part of the cruelty? Don breaks it all down, the policies, the fallout, and the grim reality of what happens when power meets indifference. America is not okay. This episode is sponsored by Henson Shaving.

Don sits down with political strategist Mike Nellis for a brutally honest breakdown of the state of the nation, and it’s not pretty.

It’s a bloodbath in mainstream media, and the numbers are brutal. CBS News is making sweeping cuts. NBC News is slashing jobs. Reporters, producers, and crews across the country are being shown the door in the name of “restructuring.” So what does this mean for the future of journalism? Is mainstream media dying, or just selling out? Because as outlets pivot toward right-wing narratives and bend the knee to Trump, it’s starting to look less like journalism and more like appeasement.

It's a rough week for Donald Trump, and it’s only getting rougher. First, he learns he can’t run for a third term (something about it being unconstitutional...who knew?). Then, his so-called “peace deal” is looking anything but peaceful, with strikes continuing overnight. Add in lawmakers and judges pushing back on his tariffs and indictments, and, well… it looks like the “winning” days might be behind him. This morning, Don breaks down the avalanche of bad news hitting Trump from every angle. Because karma, it seems, reads the Constitution. This episode is sponsored by Ollie.

First up, Don is joined by The Atlantic’s Judge J. Michael Luttig to break down just how real the threat of Trump attempting a third term actually is and how he’s been not-so-quietly trying to amass the powers of a king. Because when has he ever cared about the Constitution? Then, Don dives into the right’s latest descent into extremism: Tucker Carlson’s sit-down with white nationalist Nick Fuentes, a man whose views are proudly racist, misogynistic, homophobic, antisemitic, and Islamophobic. Apparently, for MAGA, nothing is off-limits anymore. It’s dark, it’s dangerous, and Don’s here to call it exactly what it is. This episode is brought to you by MSI United States.
