Lemon LIVE at 5 | Trump Talks, Kemp Bails, and Diddy Heads to Court - May 5th, 2025

It’s another chaotic day in the news cycle, and we’re breaking it all down.

First up: Trump’s interview with Kristen Welker, where he served up a fresh batch of lies, deflections, and victimhood, and then cried “unfair” the moment she pushed back with facts. (We’ve seen this movie before. It never gets better.)

Then we head to Georgia, where Governor Brian Kemp just announced he’s not running for Senate, potentially clearing the way for a possible run by none other than Marjorie Taylor Greene. Because apparently we’re trying to hit that “worst-case scenario.”

And finally, we’ll cover the latest in the Diddy case, where jury selection has officially begun in what’s shaping up to be one of the most high-profile and controversial trials of the year.

Politics, ego, and celebrity scandal...welcome to a typical Monday in America. 🍋
