HOT TOPICS | The Trump Train Has Officially Derailed - May 9th, 2025
Just when you think it can’t get weirder, it does.
Today, Trump is meeting with Beijing officials and signaling he might lower China tariffs to 80% (because economic chaos is apparently a feature, not a bug). Meanwhile, he’s appointed Jeanine Pirro (yes, that Jeanine Pirro from Fox News) as the new U.S. Attorney for D.C., in case you were wondering if the justice system could get more politicized.
And if that weren’t enough whiplash, the country is still processing the news of a new American pope, which has sent MAGA world into a fresh meltdown over the Catholic Church not falling in line with their culture war agenda.
This morning, Reecie Colbert joins us to break it all down, from courtroom cosplay to tariff tap-dancing, and what it all means for a country that can barely catch its breath.

Lemon LIVE at 5 | A New Pope & MAGA Outrage - May 8th, 2025
The conclave has spoken and the world has a new Pope. He’s a centrist, aiming to balance tradition with modernity. But of course, that’s not sitting well with the MAGA crowd, who were apparently hoping for a pope that quoted Fox News and issued communion with a side of culture war.
Now, right-wing Twitter is in meltdown mode, accusing the Vatican of “going woke” (because what isn’t woke these days?) and demanding a pope who reflects their version of morality.
