A lot of you have been asking: what can we actually do to fight back against MAGA policies? Tonight, instead of our regular 5PM livestream, we’re dropping a powerful conversation with two people taking action in very different ways. First, farmer and activist Will Westmoreland shares how he’s meeting with Texas lawmakers to help them understand how their policies are hurting rural Americans. Then, Dr. Jamal Bryant walks us through his boycott of Target in response to the company’s retreat from DEI commitments. Fighting back is possible, and these stories show how it’s being done on the ground, right now.

It’s the Friday before Labor Day weekend, and Don is inviting you into the kitchen as he cooks up breakfast and breaks down the news of the day. 🍳☕ It’s been a rough week for all of us, so this morning is about more than just headlines. It’s about slowing down, taking care of ourselves, and starting the long weekend with a little community, conversation, and comfort food. Pull up a chair, grab your coffee, and let’s ease into the day together. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Don’t let your rights be rewritten.

Don sits down with Ahmed Baba for a candid conversation about the state of America under MAGA’s grip. From slashing key positions at the CDC to deploying troops in the streets of D.C., it’s clear they’re grabbing for power anywhere they can. And for anyone who dares to dissent? A pink slip. It’s a conversation about control, consequences, and what this all means for the future of democracy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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.

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

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.

Tonight, we’re covering the horrific breaking news out of Minneapolis, where a shooting at a Catholic school has left a community devastated. Reports now confirm that the shooter was transgender, a detail already being weaponized in public discourse. The real question is: will this tragedy finally move lawmakers toward common-sense gun legislation, or will it be used by MAGA voices to fuel more division and hate? We’ll discuss what comes next, and what can be done to prevent these kinds of heartbreaking tragedies in the future. Our thoughts tonight are with the victims, their families, and the entire Minneapolis community. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Don’t let your rights be rewritten.

Don and Michael Cohen sit down for their weekly chat to unpack the latest chaos coming out of the Trump administration. This week, they dive into the outrageous actions by ICE officers and Trump’s disturbing attempts to federalize law enforcement and the military in Washington, D.C. What he’s doing isn’t just reckless, it’s downright un-American. Don and Michael break it all down. This episode is brought to you by Lean.

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.

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.

This morning we’re asking the question making the rounds online: Is Trump dying? Speculation about his health is swirling after new images of his hands and ankles went viral, but is there any real evidence of a medical issue, or just more internet rumor fuel? We’ll also cover the breaking news of Trump’s attempted firing of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook. Can he even do that? (Spoiler: probably not. But when has the law ever stopped him?) And finally, Jolly joins us live with coverage from last night’s protest outside the White House because the people are not staying quiet.

Trump’s military and police takeover of D.C. is in full swing, but people aren’t just rolling over. Protests are erupting across the city, and friend of the show, Jolly, is live on the ground bringing you the latest from those pushing back against authoritarian BS. And if that weren’t enough, Trump held a truly deranged Oval Office press conference today where he suggested that some people actually want a dictator. Excuse us? Hard pass. We’ll break it all down because democracy shouldn’t come with cosplay generals and dictator auditions. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation.

Back in 2019, Pete Buttigieg was dubbed “Mayo Pete” by Black Twitter, a nickname born of skepticism about his authenticity and connection with Black voters. Six years later, despite his polish and rising profile, Buttigieg still hasn’t earned that trust, with recent polls showing zero percent Black support for a presidential run. Don breaks down why safe messaging, consultant polish, and chasing conservative podcasts won’t cut it, and why, without genuine connection in Black communities, “Mayo Pete” might end up being more than just a meme.

Good morning Lemon Nation! Today we’re breaking down Trump’s so-called “crackdown on crime” in D.C., you know, the city where crime rates are actually lower than they’ve been in years. Facts be damned, he’s now floating the idea of sending troops into other left-leaning cities like Chicago and New York. Legal? Doubtful. Authoritarian? Absolutely. Are we now living in a police state? Sure feels like it. Then we’ll turn to the economy. Remember when MAGA voters swore they backed Trump because of how “great” the economy was? Well, things are sliding downhill fast, and this looks like just the beginning. Grab your coffee. We’ve got a lot to unpack. This episode is sponsored by the Freedom from Religion Foundation.

Breaking news: the DOJ has released transcripts from its interview with Ghislaine Maxwell, and there are a few bombshells. Among them? Maxwell saying she doesn’t believe Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. But here’s the real question: where are the Epstein files? The public gets Maxwell’s spin, but the full truth, the names, the connections, the receipts, are still being kept under wraps. We're joined by Katie Phang to break down what’s in the transcripts, what’s missing, and why the biggest story is still the one they don’t want us to see.

Breaking this morning: the FBI has raided the home of John Bolton, yes, Trump’s former national security advisor turned outspoken critic. Once in the inner circle, Bolton’s been on Trump’s enemies list for years. So is this raid about justice, or just another revenge mission from a wannabe strongman desperate to punish his political critics? Because let’s be real, this is starting to look less like governance and more like an authoritarian hit list. The question now: if Bolton can get raided, who’s next?

Tonight, Trump says he’ll be “joining” police and troops in the streets of D.C. because nothing screams strength like a bizarre cosplay photo op. It’s authoritarian theater at its finest, and we’ll be breaking down exactly what this stunt means and why he’s so desperate to play soldier-in-chief.

This morning, we’re asking the question: why is MAGA so angry? Seriously, why are so many of the white men in this movement constantly melting down? From JD Vance’s whiny Fox News interview, to Stephen Miller’s unhinged rant, to Sean Hannity’s creepy obsession with Gavin Newsom...and of course Donald Trump, the human embodiment of a tantrum, it’s meltdown after meltdown.

Every day under this administration feels like a fresh plunge into authoritarianism. Trump’s MAGA enforcers, JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller, and the rest of the goon squad, are working overtime to make sure his will is carried out, even if it steamrolls the Constitution and our personal freedoms. Tonight, we’re breaking down the latest example: Washington, D.C., where the streets now feel less like the nation’s capital and more like a full-on police state.

They also dive into Kerry’s new documentary, Sunday’s Best, which explores the groundbreaking role of The Ed Sullivan Show in bringing Black artists into America’s living rooms and changing the course of music history. Gordy also gives us a break down of the six degrees of separation between Ed Sullivan and Barack Obama. It’s a candid, insightful conversation you won’t want to miss.

MAGA is in full meltdown mode. Lara Loomer and Marjorie Taylor Greene are clawing at each other again, Elise Stefanik just got booed off stage by her own constituents, and Trump...well, Trump is basically a walking tantrum at this point. First he deployed the National Guard in D.C., and now he’s throwing a fit because someone reminded him that crime there is actually at a 30-year low. His solution? Claim the stats are fake. It’s less a political movement and more a daycare with no supervision. This morning we’re breaking down the chaos, the catfights, and the constant stream of MAGA meltdowns.
