In one of the most powerful episodes yet, Don Lemon joins Jo for a call to action.
They confront the Republican Party’s moral collapse, the erosion of democratic norms, and the rising tide of fascism masquerading as patriotism.
Lemon opens up about what he witnessed on the ground in Chicago—ICE raids on innocent citizens, racial profiling, and law enforcement overreach and explains why Americans cannot afford to sit on the sidelines.
Jo and Don also discuss the upcoming “No Kings” protest, the importance of civil resistance, and what real patriotism looks like when democracy is under siege.
