How does Don Lemon open this Labor Day special and pay tribute to recent hostages and fallen service members?
You guys thought I was going to abandon you on Labor Day. Never will I abandon the Lemonheads. Hello, Lemon Nation. Hello, Lemonheads. I'm so happy that you're here. Thank you so much for joining us. I'd actually like to have the show on behind me. I see your comments, but I don't see the show. Anyways, so I hope that you all are doing really, really well. There we go. I hope you're doing really well and I hope you had a great holiday weekend and that you got to spend time with your families. You got to honor those who made sacrifices for our country, those who continue to make sacrifices for our country. And while I am glad that you're here, I'm going to start off with something that's a bit somber. I just want to pay tribute and homage to, since we're speaking about people who have made sacrifices in many ways and the ultimate sacrifices in many ways.
And so I just want to tell you about Hirsch Goldberg, Poland. who was one of six hostages. There was a military operation in Rafah. The Hamas ended up killing six Israeli hostages. And I don't know if you remember, both of his parents spoke at the convention two weeks ago. He was 23 years old. And so, you know, while we do this, we are thinking about the folks who are... I've been kept... Hang on one second. This president... There we go. I just turned the show on on my computer so I could see it. So we want to remember that there are still people in harm's way. There are still hostages who are still being held. And there are people who are upset that they have not come to an agreement about those hostages.
But I just want to play Hersh's mother. Her name is Rachel Goberg-Paulin, what she had to say about her son who died two days ago.
okay sweet boy go now on your journey i hope it's as good as the trips you dreamed about because finally my sweet boy finally finally finally finally you're free i will love you and i will miss you every single day for the rest of my life but you're right here i know you're right here i just have to teach myself how to feel you in a different way And Hirsch, there's one last thing I need you to do for us. Now I need you to help us stay strong. And I need you to help us survive.
So that was his mom speaking just this week. And I don't know how that woman has the strength to do that. Quite frankly, I don't know how his mom and his dad were able to speak at the convention just over a week ago. And there are people who are upset that they cannot come to an agreement on a ceasefire. There were thousands, thousands, I'm not sure how many people who took to the streets of Tel Aviv. this weekend in a massive protest. Many of them are upset that Bibi Netanyahu for not coming to a ceasefire agreement and finding a way to release the hostages. Here it is. Let's play it.
Let's play it.
We can see all of the thousands and thousands and thousands of people who took to the streets of Tel Aviv. And we hope that this comes to a resolution. So far, it has not been able to. But again, I just want to make sure that we get this news in because it's big. We should be covering it. It is awful. Our hearts go out to all of the people, all the six hostages who were murdered, massacred by Hamas and all of the people who were killed on October 7th and all of the Jewish people who have been hurt in all of this and lost loved ones and the Palestinians as well. We hate that any innocent lives are lost in this situation. We have to stop this. the killing of Israelis and Jews and Palestinians. And Hamas needs to be held accountable for this, okay?
So I just wanted to pay my tribute. That was the most moving moment for me. at the convention i was watching it in tears i actually cried i mean people were crying around me listening to that mom and dad and so keep them in your thoughts and prayers as well as all the folks over there in the meantime the folks who some folks who made the ultimate sacrifice are men and women in uniform here in the united states they made the sacrifice um the ultimate sacrifice all over the world And I don't know if you guys heard about this Arlington National Cemetery debacle drama that has happened with Donald Trump, staged a photo op.
