Good morning, Lemonheads everywhere. You know what that music means? It means that it's 10 AM on the nose. It means it's time for Hot Topics, 10 a.m. Eastern time here on the Don Lemon Show on the Don Lemon Channel. Thank you for being here. A little bit late this morning because of me. You see I'm not in my home studio, but yeah, so I'm not in my studio. So here's the thing. At City Winery, we started late one night because of security. There was a lot of checking, a lot of things going on. There were... members of the Georgia, whatever, law enforcement. And so they were checking people. So we're a little bit late. And I said, you guys, you know, I hate starting late. I'm always on time. And the whole crowd went, what?
I don't know about that. Hilarious. You guys know me far too well. So let me know where you're streaming from. Hit the like hit the thumbs up. I'm glad you liked the little Richard little Richard is one of my favorite people just because he's like I am the originator and he does not take any well he didn't he's gone. Mr. Richard Pennington is gone but I love this. It's one of my favorite things that I own in life. So thank you for joining. Let me know where you are. Good morning. So wait someone is Are you seriously from the Ivory Coast? Ivory Coast person. Can you put that one up and see who that is, guys? There's someone on here from the Ivory Coast. That's crazy. Someone's on from Houston. Wow. Yeah, Kathy is from the Ivory Coast.
It's crazy. Hi, Baton Rouge, Michelle. Good to see you. Hollywood, Los Angeles. Hello, Don, no tariffs. Good morning, Don, no tariffs. The president just got a big blow, by the way, regarding his tariffs. I sent you the guys that there it is. Supreme Court strikes down most of Trump's tariffs in a major blow to the president. You see that the decision does not affect all tariffs, Trump's tariffs, but invalidates those implemented using an emergency law. So that's some stuff. So when I said there, are they on the thing? Are they trying to end us? Meaning, are they trying to end democracy? And some folks believe in the health care industry and people who are suffering with medical conditions that they may be trying to end us.
Or as we will talk to a doctor, we'll discuss that. And we're going to talk to also a legal mind attorney to talk about democracy. Other things here in the United States. Well, Temecula Wine Country. Hello. St. Louis is here as well. H-Town, which is Houston. Welcome, welcome, welcome, one and all. Currently in Qatar. What? Dr. Peppermint Patties in Qatar? Well, amazing. Wichita Falls, I see. Ewing. Anyway, how was your week? How was your Friday going? Harlem, my old home. I shouldn't say town because it's New York, my old home neighborhood. Harlem. I miss Harlem. I want to move back. I think I will. Brunswick, Georgia. Thank you. Hello, Juanita. Okay, so let's talk about what happened, because we got a lot to get to here.
We got a long way to go and a short time to get there, as it was Smoking the Bandit. Do you remember that song? We got a long way to go and a short time to get there. Down the line, he's bounding down, going down that shelf. I don't know. That's what I remember from that in the red. Was it a Camaro or a Firebird or what was it, guys? So the White House insisted that President Donald Trump was visiting Georgia to promote the economy. But in the opening minutes of his rally last night, the president ranted about debunked claims of voter fraud. He screamed about transgender people. He spotted incomprehensible math related to lowering drug prices. The White House has long said that Trump plans to focus more on the economy ahead of the midterms.
Aha, we'll talk about that. But recent months have been dominated by other issues, including deadly clashes during deportation efforts in Minneapolis, potential military action in Iran, racist videos and his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. OK, let's talk about that, because. if you don't pay close attention or even if you don't have to not even close attention and you will realize that donald trump always gives the game away he is so transparent about what he's doing and he's just like this is what i'm doing it doesn't hide it just like project 2025 you guys didn't believe it the moment that he says i don't know anything about anything that means he knows everything about it so but what he's doing all of these things where they're saying we're not talking about epstein anymore
