LEMON DROP | The Media Keeps CAVING to Trump!

Don sits down with Anna Merlan and Kiera Butler of Mother Jones for a deep dive into the dangerous world of RFK Jr. and the anti-vaccine movement he’s helped supercharge. From wild conspiracy theories to outright misinformation, the so-called “MAHA” movement (Make America Healthy Again) has weaponized fear and pseudoscience, casting doubt on life-saving vaccines and public health efforts. Anna and Kiera have been on the front lines of reporting this disinformation campaign, and they’re here to break it all down. This is a conversation about science, truth, and the real cost of conspiracy. This episode is brought to you by Mint Mobile.

Trump’s name is in the Epstein files. It's confirmed. But instead of addressing it, he’s doing what he does best: distraction, deflection, and a whole lot of shouting. From wild conspiracy theories to made-up scandals, he’s throwing everything at the wall to keep us from looking at this. This morning, we’re cutting through the noise and talking about what he really doesn’t want you to see. The Epstein documents are out, and the former president is in them. So why hasn’t he released the full files? Why is he suddenly ranting about everything from Windmills to Coca-cola? Join us live as we follow the chaos, track the spin, and remind everyone what Trump really wants you to ignore. This episode is brought to you by Magic Spoon.

Good evening Lemon Nation! While Mike Johnson sent the House Representatives home for break, the Senate is still working hard to release some of the Epstein files. Invoking a rare rule known as the "Rule of Five," Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and other Senate Democrats announced today that this is their current strategy. What is this rule? Will it work? What is the timeline for this release? Join Don at 5pm tonight to break it all down! This episode is brought to you by Magic Spoon. Get 5 dollars off your next order at https://MagicSpoon.com/LEMON.

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.

Donald Trump’s Obama obsession strikes again. From birth certificates to bogus treason claims, it’s like he just can’t quit him. Is it envy? Insecurity? A crush? Whatever it is, one thing’s clear: Trump’s living in Obama’s shadow, and it’s driving him wild. This episode is brought to you by Mint Mobile.

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.
