With the New York City mayoral election just one day away, Don takes a look at the final campaign ads from Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani, and let’s just say, the gloves are officially off. Both candidates are making their last big pitch to voters, but who’s connecting, and who’s overplaying their hand? Don breaks down the messaging, the spin, and the stakes as New Yorkers get ready to head to the polls. Plus, we’ll look at the latest polling numbers and what they tell us about how this historic race could shake out tomorrow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good morning Lemon Nation! Today, we're taking a look at Donald Trump’s latest 60 Minutes interview with Norah O’Donnell which went exactly how you’d expect. Trump made outlandish claims, and CBS failed to check him on it. As always, Trump’s media meltdown was a masterclass in chaos. Then, we’ll dive into Trump’s latest show of excess, the lavish Gatsby-style Halloween party he attended while millions of Americans are struggling to afford food and pay bills amid the ongoing government shutdown. Because nothing says “man of the people” like champagne fountains during a crisis. This morning, Don breaks down the interview, the hypocrisy, and the spectacle, because Trump might be living in a fantasy, but the rest of America is living in a nightmare.

Don breaks down one of the most disturbing stories yet, the Trump Labor Department’s new “American Workers First” campaign, a glossy AI-powered propaganda push that looks straight out of the 1950s. The posters, showing airbrushed white men building a fantasy version of America, are being sold as “patriotism.” But what they really represent is something darker: a digital resurrection of a time when women, Black and brown Americans, and LGBTQ+ people were erased from the picture entirely. This isn’t innovation, it’s restoration. Restoration of a lie. A fantasy of white dominance and conformity disguised as progress. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Don breaks down Donald Trump’s latest economic meltdown, this time over tariffs, his self-proclaimed “favorite word.” What started as a one-minute ad from Canada quoting Ronald Reagan spiraled into a full-blown diplomatic crisis. Now, trade talks are dead and prices are soaring while SNAP benefits are ending, and millions of Americans are paying the price for Trump’s fragile ego. This isn’t policy, it’s performance.

Tonight, federal SNAP benefits run out, and more than 42 million Americans are about to feel the impact. With the government shutdown dragging on, millions of families are waking up wondering how they’ll feed their kids, pay for groceries, or make it through the week. And yet, MAGA politicians, the same ones who claim to fight for “real Americans,” seem to have zero empathy for the people they’re hurting. So what happens next? What can families do? And when will lawmakers stop treating hunger as a political bargaining chip? This episode is sponsored by Ollie. Take the guesswork out of your dog's well-being.

Don sits down with Congressman Robert Garcia for an in-depth conversation about the state of the nation and the chaos unfolding in Washington. They dig into the government shutdown, the end of SNAP benefits that will hit millions of Americans, and the unconstitutional overreach of ICE and DHS.

It’s been a day, y’all. First up, Katie Miller, wife of the creepy, xenophobic architect of America’s worst immigration policies, Stephen Miller, had an absolute meltdown after being called out. We’ll unpack what set her off and what it says about the MAGA victim complex in full display. Then, we’ll turn to the looming end of SNAP benefits. What does this mean for families already struggling to put food on the table, and what can be done about it?

Don sits down with Missouri agroforestry farmer and friend of the show Will Westmoreland, along with a panel of farmers from across the country, to talk about how Trump’s policies are hitting rural America where it hurts most, in their fields, their businesses, and their livelihoods. After the election, headlines painted farmers as a monolith that overwhelmingly backed Trump. But the truth is more complicated and many farmers, including some who once supported him, are starting to see just how damaging MAGA’s policies have been for their communities. From tariffs to trade, subsidies to soil, this is an honest look at the people growing our food and what happens when politics plows right through the heartland. Learn more about your ad choices.

Let’s be honest, at this point, it’s starting to feel like the Trump administration is actively trying to kill us. He wants to resume nuclear testing, SNAP benefits are running out, and healthcare is about to become unaffordable for millions of Americans. The future’s looking less “great again” and more post-apocalyptic chic. So what’s the plan here? Is Trump just incompetent, or is this all part of the cruelty? Don breaks it all down, the policies, the fallout, and the grim reality of what happens when power meets indifference. America is not okay. This episode is sponsored by Henson Shaving.

Don sits down with political strategist Mike Nellis for a brutally honest breakdown of the state of the nation, and it’s not pretty.

It’s a bloodbath in mainstream media, and the numbers are brutal. CBS News is making sweeping cuts. NBC News is slashing jobs. Reporters, producers, and crews across the country are being shown the door in the name of “restructuring.” So what does this mean for the future of journalism? Is mainstream media dying, or just selling out? Because as outlets pivot toward right-wing narratives and bend the knee to Trump, it’s starting to look less like journalism and more like appeasement.

It's a rough week for Donald Trump, and it’s only getting rougher. First, he learns he can’t run for a third term (something about it being unconstitutional...who knew?). Then, his so-called “peace deal” is looking anything but peaceful, with strikes continuing overnight. Add in lawmakers and judges pushing back on his tariffs and indictments, and, well… it looks like the “winning” days might be behind him. This morning, Don breaks down the avalanche of bad news hitting Trump from every angle. Because karma, it seems, reads the Constitution. This episode is sponsored by Ollie.

First up, Don is joined by The Atlantic’s Judge J. Michael Luttig to break down just how real the threat of Trump attempting a third term actually is and how he’s been not-so-quietly trying to amass the powers of a king. Because when has he ever cared about the Constitution? Then, Don dives into the right’s latest descent into extremism: Tucker Carlson’s sit-down with white nationalist Nick Fuentes, a man whose views are proudly racist, misogynistic, homophobic, antisemitic, and Islamophobic. Apparently, for MAGA, nothing is off-limits anymore. It’s dark, it’s dangerous, and Don’s here to call it exactly what it is. This episode is brought to you by MSI United States.

There’s chaos at I.C.E., and honestly, who’s surprised? Turns out, the agency can’t keep up with Trump’s completely unhinged demand to deport 3,000 people a day. Not without shredding due process, harassing American citizens, and targeting hardworking immigrants along the way. And now it’s being reported that some ICE recruits with criminal records and failed background checks have made it into training sessions. Standards? Apparently optional. Don breaks down the dysfunction, the hypocrisy, and the dangerous reality of what happens when cruelty becomes policy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Donald Trump seems to be crashing out, and fast. After a string of unhinged remarks during a speech to the troops and a bizarre moment where he bragged (again) about passing a dementia test, the question practically asks itself: is Donald Trump okay? What’s definitely not okay is the economy. SNAP benefits are set to expire this week, Americans are struggling to afford groceries, healthcare, and basic necessities, and somehow, Trump’s still talking about himself and his absurdly unnecessary ballroom. This morning, Don is joined by friend of the show Reecie Colbert to break down Trump’s decline, his delusions, and the very real pain everyday Americans are feeling while he plays emperor.

Something strange is happening in the media, and it’s not subtle. From silencing progressive voices to hiring outspoken MAGA cheerleaders, the mainstream press seems to be slowly bending the knee to Trump. Networks are playing it safe, executives are terrified of backlash, and reporters are being told what not to say. The result? A media landscape that looks a lot more like a MAGA echo chamber than a free press. Tonight, Don is joined by media reporter Max Tani and journalist LZ Granderson to break down how we got here, who’s responsible, and what it means when journalism starts taking marching orders from the man who once called it “the enemy of the people.” This episode is sponsored by Henson Shaving.
