The Don Lemon Show

Donald Trump's political troubles are mounting following a devastating midterm election defeat, and now questions are swirling about divisions inside his own White House.

Vice President JD Vance is reportedly courting disillusioned Trump supporters while publicly pointing to the administration's war in Iran as a factor in Republican losses. Meanwhile, explosive reporting reveals First Lady Melania Trump privately raised concerns about the administration's aggressive deportation crackdown.

And the knives are out for White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, who is facing calls to resign as furious MAGA supporters demand answers. With Democrats preparing congressional investigations into the Trump family's financial dealings, the political pressure is only intensifying.

Don breaks down the growing tensions inside Trump's inner circle, Stephen Miller's controversial immigration agenda, and the questions now facing a Republican Party struggling to explain its election losses.

Donald Trump's lawyers are back in a New York courtroom trying to overturn his 34-count felony conviction in the Stormy Daniels hush money case. But 12 jurors found him guilty unanimously, and as Don reminds everyone, the president is still a convicted felon.

Rick Wilson joins Don to break down why the "witch hunt" line has lost its juice, why Democrats can't fall back on the Merrick Garland "move on" strategy, and his theory that Trump's preemptive pardons could come back to bite the people who take them. Plus, how Florida moved blue in this week's midterms, even with zero help from the national party.

Following a dramatic night in the 2026 midterm elections, Democrats are celebrating major victories, and Washington is facing a political shake-up.

But the biggest question now is: Will Hakeem Jeffries become the next Speaker of the House?

In this exclusive interview, Don speaks with House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries to discuss the election results, Donald Trump's political future, and what Democrats plan to do with their newfound power.

From Democratic victories in traditionally Republican territory to the possibility of a new era of congressional leadership, Jeffries faces some tough questions.

Was this election a vote of confidence in Democrats - or simply a rejection of Donald Trump?

And if Jeffries becomes Speaker, will he use Congress's power to hold the Trump administration accountable?

Political chaos has erupted in Michigan after Democratic Congresswoman Haley Stevens stunned her own party by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers over Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, just days before the midterm elections.

Now, Michigan Democratic Party Chairman Curtis Hertel Jr. joined Don to discuss the extraordinary fallout.

Hertel has declared Stevens is no longer part of the Michigan Democratic Party following her controversial endorsement, which sparked outrage among fellow Democrats, resignations within her own staff and praise from President Donald Trump.

Don presses Hertel on the stunning political rupture, Stevens' decision to announce her endorsement at a Black church on Souls to the Polls Sunday, and the consequences for one of the country's closely watched Senate races.

Donald Trump has delivered one of the most unusual presidential appearances on the eve of the midterm elections - spending much of his speech boasting about renovations to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool as voters prepare to decide who controls Congress.

Don reacts to the extraordinary spectacle and is joined by former U.S. Pardon Attorney Liz Oyer to discuss Trump's controversial use of presidential pardons, including clemency granted to political allies and members of his inner circle.

Are presidential pardons being used to serve justice or reward political loyalty? What safeguards exist against potential abuses of presidential power? And what does Trump's latest appearance tell us about his priorities ahead of Election Day?

Once a vocal critic of Donald Trump's rhetoric on race, South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, has transformed into one of the president's most loyal defenders. And his latest appearances are raising eyebrows.

From entertaining talk of Trump serving beyond the constitutional two-term limit to repeating an offensive anti-transgender slur targeting Democratic Senate candidate Dr. Annie Andrews, Scott's political transformation is back in the spotlight.

Don delivers a blistering takedown of Scott's MAGA makeover, revisiting his past criticism of Trump, his failed 2024 presidential campaign and his increasingly vocal support for the president.

His guests are historian and political commentator Ruth Ben-Ghiat, and Danielle Belton, former editor-in-chief of The Root and HuffPost.

Republicans have spent more than $280 MILLION on anti-transgender attack ads ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. But is their strategy actually working?

Don sits down with Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign, to discuss the GOP's relentless focus on transgender rights, new polling suggesting these issues rank near the bottom of voters' priorities, and whether the attacks could backfire on Election Day.

And it's not just Republicans. Some Democrats are adopting similar positions, raising serious questions about the party's commitment to protecting LGBTQ+ Americans. With Election Day just days away, Robinson weighs in on Trump's campaign rhetoric, divisions within the Democratic Party, and the growing political influence of LGBTQ+ voters.

With Republicans bracing for potentially devastating losses, Trump is facing mounting political pressure, renewed questions about his health and growing scrutiny over his decision to scale back in-person campaign appearances. And when a reporter dared to ask whether he was growing tired of traveling, the president erupted in a furious personal attack.

As Democrats look to make gains in traditionally Republican strongholds and Trump's approval ratings remain underwater, could November 3 deliver a political nightmare for the president? Don unpacks the latest developments with election forecasting expert and American University historian Allan Lichtman, who shares his predictions for the midterms.

He's also joined by historian and political commentator Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Danielle Belton, former editor-in-chief of The Root and HuffPost, to examine Trump's increasingly combative rhetoric, the political mood across America and what's at stake as voters prepare to head to the polls.

Rob Potylo, the musical comedian and activist known as "Robby Roadsteamer," heckled Donald Trump at his Chillicothe, Ohio rally Wednesday night, yelling, "Trump went on the Jeffrey Epstein plane!" He sang a song about Trump and Epstein's plane while the crowd booed, and security escorted him out. As he left, he told the crowd, "No political violence! We're all buddies!"

Trump responded on stage, saying he threw Jeffrey Epstein out of his club "like 20 years ago" and claiming Epstein "was a Democrat." He also called a protester "paid" and said he was "not a young guy." Trump has repeatedly denied any involvement in Epstein's crimes, and he has said he and Epstein had a falling out.

Trump launched into an Epstein rant after a protester derailed his rally.

At a campaign rally in Chillicothe, Ohio, on Wednesday night, a man in the crowd yelled, "Trump went on the Jeffrey Epstein plane!" Security removed him as the crowd booed. Trump then spent time on Epstein, saying he "threw Jeffrey Epstein out of the club like 20 years ago" and claiming Epstein "was a Democrat." Trump was also heckled again later in the speech.

Now the protester, Rob Potylo, a musical comedian and activist known as "Robby Roadsteamer," joins Don live to explain why he did it and what happened next.

The View's Ana Navarro also joins to react and discuss Trump's standing five days before the midterms. This comes days after House Judiciary Democrats released a 50-page report alleging that Trump was an "active participant" in Epstein's abuse of young women and calling for a special counsel. Those are allegations, and Trump has repeatedly denied any involvement.

With just six days until the midterm elections, Republicans are turning up the heat and the rhetoric is getting uglier.

Senator Ted Cruz has called Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed a "jihadist leprechaun," sparking fresh outrage over the GOP's attacks on Muslim candidates and raising serious questions about MAGA's closing message to voters.

As Donald Trump and his allies double down on inflammatory rhetoric, are they driving away the very voters they need to win?

Don Lemon discusses Trump's rhetoric about race and immigration, why some Latino voters are turning their backs on MAGA, and whether the Republican Party's strategy could backfire at the ballot box.

With control of Congress on the line, could MAGA's culture wars cost Republicans the midterms?

A new report from House Judiciary Committee Democrats is raising serious questions about President Donald Trump's relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Released just eight days before the midterm elections, the report examines accounts involving 11 women, including five who have accused Trump of rape or sexual assault in Epstein's company or presence. The report also highlights discrepancies between Trump's public statements about Epstein and records reviewed by congressional investigators, while accusing the Justice Department of withholding potentially significant evidence.

Congressman Jamie Raskin and fellow Democrats are now calling for an independent special counsel investigation.

Trump has repeatedly denied involvement in or knowledge of Epstein's sex-trafficking operation. The allegations against him remain unproven.

Don breaks down the report, the accusations, and the questions surrounding what Trump knew about Epstein's activities.

Eight days to go, and Donald Trump looks like a man who knows it's slipping.

Overnight he sat down and wrote a Truth Social rant about Bill Maher, a guy he invited into the Oval Office. He spent the weekend at rallies bringing Nicki Minaj out on stage and going after Abdul El-Sayed. And on the same weekend, Barack Obama was in Detroit taking his whole presidency apart, one line at a time.

Today on the show: Trump's meltdown, what Obama said in Michigan, and where the Senate race actually stands. Then Nicki Minaj and Trump on one stage. We've got guests on what that moment means, and I've got a few things to say about it.

Trump's sweeping voter-fraud crackdown faces a major legal challenge after a federal judge ruled that Homeland Security's door-to-door investigations likely violate the Voting Rights Act. Federal agents have been knocking on doors, questioning residents about their voting history and making arrests as the administration expands its investigations into alleged noncitizen voting ahead of the midterms.

The judge's order is temporarily paused until Friday at 5 p.m., giving the administration an opportunity to appeal.

Former senior DHS official Miles Taylor joins Don to unpack the court ruling, the federal investigations and whether the Trump administration will comply with the judge's order.

Minnesota State Senator and Assistant Majority Leader Mary Kunesh joins Don for a blunt conversation about Trump's attacks on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and the federal investigation Omar says is political retaliation.

After playing Trump's remarks, Don asks Kunesh what it means to hear a president talk about potentially jailing or deporting her friend and fellow Minnesota elected official. They examine the search of Omar's Washington home, the seizure of personal belongings, and the questions surrounding the investigation's timing and justification.

What separates a legitimate investigation from an effort to punish a political opponent? How is Omar responding to the pressure? And who ensures that presidential hostility does not override someone's constitutional rights?

Omar denies wrongdoing. This conversation examines the allegations, the political stakes, and why due process must apply regardless of whether you support her politics.

According to CNN, federal investigators are examining allegations involving immigration documents and Omar's citizenship history.

But a federal magistrate judge intervened, restricting how investigators could access certain materials because of constitutional protections afforded to members of Congress.

President Donald Trump yesterday responded to calls for a federal investigation into the mysterious death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells, telling reporters his administration is looking into the matter.

The president's remarks come as the FBI says it has found no evidence of foul play, and a Mississippi grand jury has declined to indict anyone. But Nolan's parents refuse to give up.

Three months after their son was found dead on Horn Island, Mississippi, his cause and manner of death remain undetermined. His family says critical questions remain unanswered.

Don brings you the latest developments with Daniel Grimes, including the family's continued fight for answers.

Political commentator Tezlyn Figaro also joins us to examine the background of the case, the investigation, the conflicting findings and why Nolan's family continues to demand further federal scrutiny.

What happened to Nolan Wells? Will Trump's comments lead to a new investigation? And will his family finally get the answers they're seeking?

A stunning twist in the case of Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez, the 28-year-old Venezuelan man shot by an ICE officer during a stop in Austin. Now, Garcés Pérez is the one facing federal charges and potentially up to 20 years in prison. In an EXCLUSIVE interview with Don, his attorney Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch says his legal team was effectively shut out as the charges unfolded and raises serious concerns about his treatment in federal custody. Garcés Pérez still has a bullet lodged in his body, according to his attorney, who says he has not received the medical care he needs. DHS says he is receiving appropriate treatment. Meanwhile, major questions remain about what happened during the encounter, including why the ICE officer who shot Garcés Pérez was not wearing a body camera.

Trump spent years calling President Biden "Sleepy Joe." Now the cameras keep catching him with his own eyes closed. He nodded off again during an Oval Office event, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, before facing questions over claims he made from the Resolute Desk. Don breaks down the footage, Trump's disputed claims, and the remarkable moment Marco Rubio insisted he had never seen the president fall asleep, only for Congressman Ted Lieu to confront him with video of Trump appearing to doze while Rubio himself was speaking. Don is joined by psychotherapist Elliott Connie to discuss sleep, exhaustion and what we can and cannot, responsibly conclude from watching someone appear drowsy on camera. PLUS: Lindsay Clancy returns to court for the first time since her murder trial ended in a mistrial. Prosecutors are weighing whether to retry the Massachusetts mother in the deaths of her three children, while Clancy's defense is fighting to prevent a second trial. The first jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict on whether Clancy should be convicted or found not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility.

A Republican nominee for statewide office in Texas is under fire after CNN's KFile uncovered since-deleted social media posts in which Bo French repeatedly called for the public execution of political opponents, including former President Barack Obama.

French, the Republican nominee for the Texas Railroad Commission, has also faced condemnation over inflammatory comments about race, immigration and religion.

Don is joined by former Ohio State Senator Nina Turner and anti-racism educator and author Tim Wise to examine French's rhetoric, the backlash from members of his own party, and what his candidacy says about the state of American politics.

The numbers are alarming: Black women in Harris County are dying from pregnancy-related causes at a dramatically higher rate - despite Houston being home to one of the largest medical centers in the world. So what is going wrong? Don speaks to Dr. Letitia Plummer, Democratic nominee for Harris County Judge and a practicing health professional, for a direct conversation about Black maternal mortality, racial disparities in healthcare and what she says needs to change. Then attorney and political commentator Monique Pressley joins the conversation to examine the broader picture: Black women seeking political power in 2026, the barriers they continue to face, and the historical significance of this election cycle. This is about more than making history. It's about whether political representation can translate into change for Black women.

Donald Trump stood before the United Nations - the institution created to prevent another world war - and threatened to "annihilate" Iran if it refused to make a deal. Former Trump national security adviser John Bolton joins Don Lemon to explain what that extraordinary warning could mean. Was this calculated deterrence, or dangerous rhetoric that could push an already volatile conflict toward catastrophe? Bolton also addresses Trump's claim that an agreement could come after the midterm elections, the risks facing American troops and allies, and whether the president has any coherent strategy for ending the war. Is Trump moving America closer to peace or dragging the country toward an even wider war?

A 28-year-old DoorDash driver was shot by an ICE officer in Austin, Texas and his attorney says the bullet is still lodged in his back. Wilber Rafael Garces Perez survived the shooting, was hospitalized twice and was then returned to immigration detention. His attorney says he later experienced loss of feeling on the left side of his body. And one major question remains: the ICE officer who shot him was reportedly not wearing a body camera. Don speaks with Wilber's attorney, Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, to ask what happened in the moments before the shooting, why there is no bodycam footage from the officer who fired, what evidence exists, why Wilber was returned to detention after being hospitalized, and what his family wants from the federal government. Plus, an exclusive conversation with Senator Mark Kelly about facing what he describes as intimidation from the Trump administration, Pete Hegseth, the future of AI and his warning about Donald Trump.

Don breaks down the growing panic inside MAGA world with Glenn Kirschner, attorney, former federal prosecutor and host of the Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner podcast.

Is Trump losing his grip on the Republican Party, or are candidates simply trying to save themselves?

President Trump's escalating attacks on journalists and news organizations are dangerous, desperate and completely unhinged. This isn't simply another political feud, it is a sustained campaign to intimidate the press.

Don is joined by our correspondent Daniel Grimes, Joy Reid, Jim Acosta and April Ryan, who know firsthand what it means to face Trump's fury, for a conversation about press freedom, political retaliation and the consequences for American democracy.

What really happened to Nolan Wells and who knows the truth? In a heartbreaking interview with Don Lemon, Nolan's parents, Christine and Elmore, speak through unimaginable grief about the loss of their son and the questions that continue to haunt them. Joined by attorney Ben Crump, they make an explosive allegation: someone knows what happened to Nolan, and the full truth is being hidden. Now, they are pleading for the release of his autopsy, demanding answers from Mississippi officials and calling for the Justice Department to investigate. They have already lost their son. They should not have to fight this hard for the truth.

Nolan Wells' parents say they were failed by the very people who were supposed to help them. Don sits down with the grieving family as they demand the release of their son's autopsy and call for the Justice Department to investigate his death. Too many questions remain and this family deserves the truth. Watch more from this exclusive interview tomorrow at 10 a.m. ET.

Don Lemon is LIVE with breaking reaction to the latest development in the death of Nolan Wells. After hearing from 43 witnesses, a grand jury has returned no indictments in connection with Nolan's death. But for his family, major questions remain. Don breaks down the grand jury decision, what investigators say the evidence shows, what remains unanswered, and where Nolan's family goes from here. What really happened to Nolan Wells and is this truly the end of the case?

Don reacts to the President's worsening treatment of the press. He then interrogates the problem with attorney and political advisor Moe Vela, and veteran reporter and White House correspondent April Ryan.🍋

We know that Donald Trump hates the free press. What he calls "fake news" is simply journalists doing their job. So it's really not a surprise when he lashes out like this, but we can't let it be normal. Join Don LIVE in DC to break down this absurd story. 🍋
