Look at that Renee Stager in Charleston, South Carolina, getting her streaming place in, her location, but not too accurate, in immediately, the very first. Someone said, hi, Tim Malone. Tim, are you in the comments? Good morning, everybody. Welcome to Hot Topics at 10 o'clock, the Don Lemon Show. So glad that you're here. So can I just let you in? We were just talking about, as we were getting ready, got a little carried away. I'm like, hey, we got to go on. We're talking about this. Maybe we should talk about it. Where's my 10? Maybe we should talk about it as we are doing our thing. And here we are talking about it. So there was something where I said I had to grab... I had to grab not grab them by the you know what I had to grab something, I think the copy or something from downstairs.
And I said, I got to grab the printer on the printer. Pardon me. Lemonade instead of tea. Fresh. So it has a little lemon, you know, meat in it. So good. Lemon.
Anyways, whatever.

Anybody else remember that? Nikki, who'd you say it was? I forgot the name of the group, but it was like one of the first rap girl rap groups. Like it was L trim. L trim.

And then the DJ would mix, grab it, grab it.
Like anyways, where am I? That's what I'm doing. I hope you guys are doing okay. Somebody's laughing at lemon meat. I know Christy Patterson that I, as soon as it came out of my mouth, I was like, ah, By the way, I was on a sub stack yesterday with Michael Cohen and he actually said the Bukele thing that I was going to say yesterday where you guys were egging me on. And then some of you were saying, don't say it. And others were like, do it. And I was like, it's a devil. He actually said it and nobody cared. Nobody cared. He said it because, because he's not the only one and I'm not the only one. My gosh, the construction outside is crazy. Can you guys hear that? New York City is full of construction, whether it's outside or in your apartment or in the building.
It's crazy. So good morning. How are you guys feeling? Are you in good spirits? Did you get good rest? Have you stretched this morning? Did you do whatever it is that you needed to do? Will you interview Maya Wiley? She has a new book. Of course I will. Yeah, I would love to get Maya Wiley on. Lemon meat, pause. I'm reading your comments. Anyway, I did not have such a restful night, but I did get, like, maybe 30 minutes in this morning. It was so warm. I fell asleep on the couch. I had so much to do. Like, calls. I did the Substack thing with Jim Acosta last night. Jim Acosta, Michael Cohen. Officer, why can't I think of his name? The insurrection officer, Captain America, and not Michael Fanone, but the other one.
Why can't I think of his name? I can't believe it. Tara Setmayer, Olivia Troy. And, yeah, and so it was really, really, really great. It was live. We met with a group of New Yorkers who came and some folks from New Jersey and some folks from Connecticut who came.
