The Don Lemon Show

The drama around the Epstein files is still exploding, and tonight we’re diving even deeper. Thousands of pages of documents have now been released, and Donald Trump’s name appears again and again in ways that suggest he knew Epstein far better than he ever wanted the public to believe. And now the country is asking the question Trump fears most: What exactly was their relationship, and why did he work so hard to hide it? Even some of Trump’s most loyal supporters are suddenly… quiet. Confused. Some are openly wondering what these revelations really mean and whether the story they were sold all these years was ever real. Is this the beginning of the end for MAGA? Or will Trump’s movement find a way to spin, deny, and hold on? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics. Go to https://zbiotics.com/LEMON and use LEMON at checkout for 15% off first time orders.

In this episode, Don sits down with Democratic strategist and consultant Chuck Rocha to break down the chaos unfolding in Washington, D.C. The GOP is rattled. Trump is visibly anxious. And with the explosive release of the Epstein emails, the former president’s frantic attempts to deny, distract, and cover up are only making him look more guilty and more desperate. Don and Chuck unpack the mood inside the Capitol, the fear gripping MAGA world, and what these revelations might mean for Trump’s future. Then they take a deep dive into the massive shift in the Latino vote during Tuesday’s Democratic sweep. Why did it happen? What changed? And what does this mean heading into the 2026 midterms?

The Epstein scandal just blew wide open. Thousands of pages of documents have been released, and Donald Trump’s name is all over them. As the details pour out, Trump is doing what he always does: deflecting, yelling “Democratic hoax,” and hoping no one reads the receipts. But this time, even MAGA supporters are starting to ask questions, and behind the scenes, the White House is in full-blown panic mode. This morning, Don breaks down what’s in the latest batch of Epstein documents, why Trump’s denials are falling flat, and the big question on everyone’s mind: Will this be the scandal that finally brings Trump down, or will it vanish from the news cycle like so many others?

This is it...the smoking gun we’ve all been waiting for. The Epstein files are coming out, and it looks like there is no holding them back now. The more we learn, the clearer it becomes that Donald Trump was far more tied to Jeffrey Epstein than he ever admitted. The truth is finally pouring out, and MAGA world is in full-blown panic mode. The White House is scrambling, the spin machine is overheating, and the excuses are getting thinner by the hour. So what happens next? Is this the moment that finally cracks MAGA? Or will Trump and his loyalists try, once again, to slither out of accountability? Tonight, Don is joined by an all-star panel, Journalist  @TaraPalmeri  , political strategist Mike Nellis, and President & CEO of Democracy Forward Skye Perryman, to break down the documents, the fallout, and what this means for the future of the Trump movement.

Breaking news this morning: newly released Epstein files have revealed a series of emails tying Donald Trump even closer to Jeffrey Epstein. The revelations are explosive and disturbing. Trump’s been trying to rewrite history for years. But the receipts keep coming, and his efforts to distance himself from Epstein are failing spectacularly. Lawmakers are now demanding answers about what else the government is sitting on and why this evidence wasn’t released sooner. Don is joined by Congressman Robert Garcia to break down what’s in these new documents, what it means for Trump’s already crumbling credibility, and how MAGA continues to look the other way. Another day, another scandal. Another reminder that the truth always comes out. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

Is Donald Trump okay? From his rambling, nonsensical answers in that Laura Ingraham interview, to forgetting the words to “God Bless America,” the signs of cognitive decline are hard to ignore. Then, we’ll be joined by The Atlantic’s Tom Nichols to break down the other headache of the week, the eight Senate Democrats who voted with Republicans to reopen the government without securing a deal on healthcare subsidies. Was this a strategic move…or just another cave? Don and Tom dig into what this means for the Democratic Party, the base, and the road ahead. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

Apparently, this is what counts as a scandal now. Texas Congressman James Talarico is under fire after reports surfaced that he follows and occasionally likes posts from women with OnlyFans accounts. That’s it. No crimes. No corruption. No hypocrisy. Just… Instagram follows. Meanwhile, MAGA politicians have been caught in actual scandals, from hush money payments to sexual assault allegations, but somehow this is the story making headlines? Please. Don breaks down the absurdity of the so-called “controversy,” why it says more about our political media than about Talarico himself, and why maybe, just maybe, we could use a little perspective and a lot less fake outrage.

Let’s be honest, Trump is always a little off. But his new interview with Fox News’s Laura Ingraham? That was… something else. From rambling to straight-up nonsense, even Ingraham, one of Trump’s biggest cheerleaders, had to push back on some of his most absurd claims. When Fox News starts fact-checking you, you know it’s bad. This morning, Don breaks down the highlights (or lowlights) of Trump’s latest meltdown, the delusion behind his talking points, and the question we all keep asking: does the truth even matter anymore?

Don sits down with Congressman Ro Khanna, who’s making headlines after calling for Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to step down. In a fiery post, Khanna wrote: “Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?” With Democrats divided over how the government shutdown was handled, and growing frustration over rising healthcare costs, many in the party are now asking the same question: Is it time for new leadership? Don and Congressman Khanna break down the growing rift inside the Democratic Party, what this moment says about accountability, and where the fight goes from here. 🍋 Learn more about your ad choices.

Don is LIVE in Washington, D.C., where outrage is boiling over after eight Senate Democrats agreed to vote with Republicans to reopen the government, without securing a deal on healthcare subsidies. That means premiums are going up, millions could lose their coverage, and once again, Democrats walked away with nothing to show for it. After the massive blue wave on Tuesday, many saw it as a clear mandate to stand up to Trump’s cruel policies, not to fold under pressure. So what was this all even for? Don breaks it down live from the Capitol, where Democrats are getting roasted by voters and their own base for caving when it mattered most. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
