Lemon LIVE at 5 | Jen Psaki Responds to Critics LIVE! - August 28th, 2025

Tonight, we’re joined by Jen Psaki to break down the horrific school shooting in Minneapolis, and to respond to some of the absurd commentary on the tragedy. Because of course, instead of solutions, MAGA serves up nonsense. Then we’ll be joined by Dr. Frita to dive into the latest bombshell out of the CDC, where RFK Jr. and the MAGA crowd are trying to reshape public health policy. Spoiler: it’s not about science, facts, or even common sense. It’s pure ideology dressed up as policy, and the fallout could be catastrophic.

LEMON DROP | DON'T LOOK AWAY: Gaza Famine Tragedy

The famine in Gaza is man-made, and it’s happening in real time. UN experts have confirmed famine conditions, yet leaders deny what the world can see: starving children, destroyed hospitals, silenced journalists. Don breaks down why this is not defense, but policy, and why refusing to see the truth makes us complicit in the lie. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

HOT TOPICS | MAGA’s Deadly Agenda: Politics Over Lives - August 28th, 2025

This morning, we’re looking at how MAGA’s policies aren’t just reckless, they’re deadly. First, the horrific school shooting in Minneapolis. Will it lead to meaningful legislation to prevent the next one? Of course not. Just another round of empty “thoughts and prayers” while nothing changes. Then we turn to the bombshell news out of the CDC, where RFK Jr. and the MAGA crowd are pushing to reshape public health policy. But these changes are not based on science, facts, or even basic logic. It’s ideology over evidence, and the consequences could be catastrophic. Because under MAGA, it’s never safety first. It’s politics first, lives second. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Don’t let your rights be rewritten.

HOT TOPICS | Trump's Cabinet Meeting: A Fascist Glaze Fest - August 27th, 2025

This morning, we’re breaking down Trump’s absolutely unhinged cabinet meeting, a three-hour spectacle that looked less like governing and more like a loyalty pageant. One by one, his cabinet members took turns showering him with praise in a display that felt straight out of North Korea’s playbook, not the United States of America. What have we come to? And more importantly, where are their spines? Let’s talk about it. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Don’t let your rights be rewritten.

Lemon LIVE at 5 | F This Fascist! Trump's Deranged Cabinet Meeting - August 26th, 2025

Tonight, we’re breaking down Trump’s marathon cabinet meeting. Yes, more than three hours of chaos, delusion, and dictator cosplay. In between the usual round of butt-kissing from his loyalists, Trump mused (again) about being a dictator, bragged he can “do whatever he wants” as president, and doubled down on one unconstitutional policy after another. What even was this meeting? Governance? Theater? Group therapy for fragile egos? Either way, it was a spectacle, and we’re here to unpack every absurd minute of it.
