Don Lemon | June 5, 2026

One loss might be a fluke. This many? People are starting to notice.

    Trump said 13m for the reflecting pool, made a deal with his pool guys to jack the price up to 76m and when they get paid, they deposit 55m into his secret offshore account and keep the leftover.

    It wasn’t the people coming across the border that took the black jobs. The president and Elon Musk that took the black jobs. Nobody stole the jobs. They took the jobs from people remember, just think about it. He said the Black people wasn’t qualified to work so he put all white people uneducated and too long in office and all of the black jobs. Ain’t that a B?

    The "other guys"…its not like their headquarters is way out in the rural areas, Lemon. Atlanta, DC, NY, LA…major metro.

    With the hundreds, thousands of news bits streaming to them on a daily basis…I gotta keep it real, Lemon…Im finding it awfully strange that the Aspiring Rapper Criminal Underworld NEVER comes up πŸ™‚…

    It DOES come up, Lemon πŸ™‚…they promptly DO something with it πŸ˜‚…Fox News DOESNT do something with it, it goes to air πŸ˜‚!

    37 shot in Chicago over Memorial Day, wild violent takeovers. A weekend host, black guy, a harrowing account of how he was carjacked in DC, at gunpoint.

    This makes Fox News RELATABLE, and the other guys, in which only "rampaging Republicans" ever comes up, NOT relatable πŸ˜‚

    Fox News passes the litmus taste, I can rock with them!

    The National Park Service reported the reflecting pool is cleaned annually in the spring. There was no need to paint in swimming pool blue.

    I think, one of the greatest gifts to the American community has been these corporate stations sacking quality speakers and untethering them.

    The honesty and openness that has been set free is heartwarming.

    Love you Don.

    Don't fool yourself. just cuz someone marries a blk person does NOT mean they are very cool with black folk. IT MEANS they are cool with the one they partnered with.

    So a Black job is a factory employee when a vast majority of DOGE fired Black employees with high level advanced degrees working for the government.

    Don, I love this show. I love this one in particular you made me laugh and you got my mind off of all the horrible things for split seconds here and there yet the education and I loved how you talk to that one lady and gave her hope and it was wonderful and I wish I could give money myself a lot of income, but I am still tuning in each day. Still love you and love Daniel and good luck with everything.

    He is giving our tax dollars to his friends for a cut of the action. There will be a serious deficit and they will blame it on the Democrats
