LEMON DROP | Trump Corruption, Christian Nationalism & Colbert’s Exit

Don Lemon | May 24, 2026



Another absolutely chaotic week is in the books. From Trump’s absurd IRS settlement drama to the $1.8 billion slush fund for allies and loyalists, the corruption headlines just keep getting worse.
Meanwhile, there was at least some hopeful news: Keisha Lance Bottoms scored a major primary victory and could now become the first Black woman governor in American history.

    I want millions from the Africans that kidnapped millions of rival African tribes in the bush and then sold them off for billions!!! Every white man that died to give blacks back their freedom in the USA should be compensated in the billions from these African warlords that created this mess..

    Don Lemon is the super oppressed victim. The world just won't give him a break. That poor kid surviving mountains of racism. Nobody will let him lose $20 million a year and stay on TV. Nobody will let him attack senior citizens praying in Church. Nobody will let him abuse young boys at home. This guy has no chance for freedom! He should be a billionaire with blacks worshipping him on a daily basis.

    All foreigners are being told to leave South Africa. An announcement concerning genocide and killings is imminent. Do not let your guard down; they are specifically targeting poor foreigners, not wealthy ones. Several ministers support this, and it will be reported in the news afterward.

    As a German I like the comparison with Albert Speer in reference to the ballroom. So many parallels with the history of my country. Unbelievable that this is happening in the US. It seems that Germany is the only country which took responsibility for the dark past. America never did this in regards to slavery or the indigionous people in America. The US is still a very racistic country and like in many countries religion is used to justify this. In international surveys the US is now considered a bigger threat to world peace than Russia. America will be very lonely. Trump and his criminals do a huge damage to the US. But they don‘t care because they get so rich now. I wish education in the US would be as half as good as in Europe. Than all this would not have happened. This will end not good…….

    I am from Haiti, but I am an American citizen through naturalization. As a lot of people may already know, most Caribbean island countries are Black-majority Christian countries. There are a lot of us here in America, and many of us are American citizens through naturalization. The Republican Party preys on islanders to vote for them. They use people’s hatred of LGBT individuals to persuade Black Christians to support them, when in reality many of them do not respect us because of our skin color. My pastor, who is Haitian by the way, persuaded people to vote for Trump.

    I will do my part in the Haitian community to make sure these Republican predators do not use Christianity to prey on my people for votes. I have a feeling they also prey on African Christians to vote for them too. All Black nationalities need to unite and support Black Americans in their fight against racism in this country, and stop letting Republicans use Christianity to manipulate us when, in reality, many of them promote hateful ideas and do not see us as equals. Black Americans fought really hard so that we as Black people could be treated fairly in this country; some even sacrificed their lives. The least we can do is not betray them and continue supporting the Democratic Party.

    Everybody's losing everything except them. They do what they want to who they want and don't have any consequences. Im 59 was looking forward to retiring in a couple years now im terrified. The social security I worked for since I was 15 will no longer be not to mention Medicare or medcaid. They are robbing tax payers blind to enrich themselves and their families. My daughter who graduated last year cant get any assistance to help with school so thats on hold. Its just so scary. I will sell everything and live in Thailand with my brother if I have to thats my only plain to escape this madness😢
