Good evening, good evening. You saw the thumbnail. I know what you're thinking, like, racism never left. We know that. I think we should actually change it to Jim Crow because people don't understand, like, meaning it's back, it's fashionable out in the open now before people would at least try to hide it. Now they don't even try to hide it. They just do it right in your face. They're playing in your face right now. So that's what that thumbnail means. Don't get it twisted. We already know racism never left, okay? It is me. Anyway, welcome to Lemon Live at 5. Thank you very much. I decided to, tell me if it's too glary in the thing, to open the shades. Sometimes the shades being open, it gets too, it gets a little glared, all right?
Don Lemon 0:58
So I decided, because it's a nice evening here, and I wanted to have the shades up, bring a little light into the room. Hello, Lemon Nation. Thank you for joining. You guys know the routine. Like and thumbs up does affect the algorithm. More people become aware of our channel. I just want to show you some people we have today. They are legendary people, and they are part of the Lemon Nation, and there they are. Hello, Lemon Legends, the legendary lemons, and we'll talk to them in just a minute. They're going to tell me all about that. Racism, we know racism never went away. I don't know. Because, you know, they're very opinionated. Okay. So back with them in a moment. But let me just get to it. A couple things.
Don Lemon 1:41
This is one, this redistricting is crazy. Virginia now is at it. We saw what happened with Tennessee. Alabama is up next. Florida is going to, I mean, look, it's just going on and on and on and on. One reason we say racism is back, meaning in the open, perhaps we should change it to Jim Crow so people can understand. Okay. But the point is on those thumbnails to get your attention. So also happening, the cost of goods are up and we don't normally hear on Fox News the actual truth about it. We'll get to that. But I want to start with this report. about something that happened in New Jersey, and it has to do with the hantavirus, and we are in deep, deep, deep trouble because we have RFK Jr. in charge, doesn't really like vaccines, and we know what MAGA, Donald Trump, did during the pandemic, screwed up the economy, lots of people ended up dying, and now here we are in the beginning of hantavirus season.
News reader / Staff (Unknown) 2:41
Well, this just in. The New Jersey Department of Health is monitoring two residents over concerns about exposure to hantavirus. Officials say these two people were not on board the cruise ship linked to the recent deadly outbreak. The potential exposure happened while traveling abroad. The health department is not saying where in New Jersey those people live. Right now, they do not have symptoms, but still no confirmed cases have been reported in the state. Health officials say the threat of hantavirus remains low in New Jersey.
Don Lemon 3:15
And those people who are exposed to the hantavirus, also it happened on an airplane, so it means that they aren't the only ones. So I guess whoever was on that plane that was exposed to it, they're taking possibly hantavirus back to where they live or wherever they're going. Yeah. Look, it's not spread as easily as COVID, but still, I mean, they told us that in the beginning about COVID, remember? I don't know. I'm not happy about it. I'm concerned about it. Let's hope that they're okay, all right? But be careful out there. Be very careful. The other thing that I want to tell you about is when I said the cost of goods, this is where we are in this country right now. Not only are we dealing with, you know, the job numbers were not great.
Don Lemon 3:59
We're going to talk to Tiffany Crosses here. We're going to talk to Tiffany in just moments about that. The job number, she has a new book out, by the way. And, you know, Tiffany is brilliant. So it's going to the book is good. I already know it without even having read it yet. The cost of goods up jobs. You know, they said, oh, it was better than expected than predicted. But they were already down from Joe Biden.
