Steve Preston is the CEO of Goodwill Industries. Though Goodwill is known for big stores where people can donate clothes and buy them secondhand, those stores are just the first level of what Goodwill Industries are about. Those stores fund an international organization that provides job training, employment placement services and other community-based programs for people who face barriers in their employment. Steve joins Jay to discuss the ways Goodwill Industries support veterans and individuals who lack job experience, an education, or face employment challenges, such as those people who are formerly incarcerated.

The stock market is officially on a rollercoaster—and Trump’s tariff announcement is the one yanking the lever. Since his so-called Liberation Day, we’ve seen wild swings, investor panic, and enough volatility to make even Wall Street queasy.

Don breaks down what’s happening, why the markets are reacting this way, and how Trump’s trade war 2.0 is creating chaos not just at home, but around the globe.

It’s unpredictable. It’s ugly. And somehow, it’s exactly what he wanted. Buckle up, Lemon Nation.

1:08:04

Last night, Israel launched strikes on Iran, an unprecedented escalation that has global leaders on edge and many wondering: are we staring down the barrel of World War III? Meanwhile, back home, things aren’t looking any more stable. In Los Angeles, the Trump administration continues to back its unconstitutional deployment of the National Guard to silence protesters. And just when we thought the authoritarianism couldn’t get any more blatant, Senator Alex Padilla was detained and dragged out of a Kristi Noem press event for asking questions. Yes, really. Trump once claimed he’d “end the wars.” Instead, it looks like he’s starting new ones, both abroad and at home. Let's unpack the chaos, connect the dots, and ask the question on everyone’s mind: what the hell is happening? WE HAVE MERCH!!

1:48:10

In a shocking and brutal display of authoritarian overreach, Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed from a Kristi Noem press event in Los Angeles. And by “forcibly,” we mean tackled and dragged to the ground by Noem’s security detail because apparently asking questions is now a punishable offense. So… this is where we are now? Elected officials being physically assaulted for showing up in their own state? Is this Kristi Noem’s version of “law and order”? Or just more of the GOP’s ongoing war on decency, democracy, and basic human rights?

The tide is turning, and people are done staying quiet. Let's take a look at the growing chorus of voices speaking out against Donald Trump and his inhumane policies. From celebrities to lawmakers, folks are using their platforms to say what needs to be said. Kim Kardashian called the ICE raids what they are: inhumane. Tyler Perry and Doechii used their time at the BET Awards to call out Trump directly. And Eva Longoria took to social media to slam the cruelty of ICE detention practices. The message is loud and clear... enough is enough. While Trump tries to rule by fear, intimidation, and bad faith birthday parades, people are standing up and calling him out. Let’s talk about who’s speaking up, why it matters, and what happens next. WE HAVE MERCH!!

Elon Musk is backpedaling again. After throwing some spicy shots at Donald Trump, he’s now walking them back, saying he regrets his posts. Awww. Is this the end of their billionaire bromance feud? Or just a pause in the circus? Meanwhile, new reports reveal that the Fort Bragg soldiers at Trump’s speech were handpicked for optics, carefully curated to look the part and hold the "right" political views. Sound familiar? It's all part of the lead-up to Trump’s upcoming birthday parade: a pageant of loyalty and empty spectacle designed to distract from his mounting failures. Join us as we unpack the performative politics, the carefully staged military photo ops, and the Musk-Trump melodrama. It’s not leadership, it’s just propaganda in a red tie. WE HAVE MERCH!!

22:30

In this powerful sit-down, Don Lemon is joined by political commentator and journalist Ahmed Baba to break down the latest chaos from the Trump administration. From targeting immigrants who are following the rules to deploying the military to American cities (against the will of state leaders) this presidency is veering deeper into authoritarian territory by the day. California said “no thanks,” but Trump sent the troops anyway. Immigrant families doing everything right? Still under attack. So what do we do now? Don and Ahmed cut through the noise, expose the dangerous overreach, and make one thing clear: it’s time to stand up. WE HAVE MERCH!!

The Trump administration keeps turning up the heat. First the National Guard, now the Marines. But is this military escalation really about maintaining peace, or manufacturing chaos? The media’s showing burning cars and chaos in the streets, but folks on the ground in LA are telling a very different story. Let's cut through the smoke (literally and figuratively) to ask: what’s actually happening in Los Angeles? Is this response about safety or about optics and control? And how much is too much when it comes to sending in troops against American citizens? Join us as we separate fact from fear-mongering and expose the reality behind the headlines.

Don Lemon sits down with friend of the show and retired D.C. police officer Michael Fanone to unpack the latest descent into chaos. From the military escalation in L.A. (where the only thing being protected is Trump’s ego), to MAGA’s ongoing war on accountability, to the bizarre plans for Trump’s upcoming birthday parade, they break it all down. Why is Trump acting like a dictator on tour? And why are so many people still cheering him on? Tune in for facts, fire, and zero tolerance for fascism. This episode is brought to you by Beam.

1:06:03

The showdown is heating up. In the wake of escalating protests in Los Angeles, Donald Trump has steamrolled past state authority, first sending in the National Guard, then Marines, and now more National Guard, all without California’s consent. Governor Gavin Newsom says his state didn’t ask for this and doesn’t want it. And now? Trump is openly endorsing Newsom’s arrest. Yes, you read that right. Newsom is turning to the courts, arguing this is a blatant violation of state sovereignty. And he’s not wrong. Because when a president starts deploying the military against the will of elected state leaders and punishing them for it, we’re well past law and order and deep into autocracy cosplay. Tonight, we’re breaking down how we got here, what this means for California (and every other state), and why this fight could shape the future of federal vs. state power in America. Strap in.

LEMON DROP | Why Are U.S. Prisoners Dying? 24:42

3 days ago24:42

24:42

Don Lemon sits down with journalist Josh Vaughn and elected official Lamont Jones to expose the horrifying reality inside Dauphin County Prison in Pennsylvania, infamous for having double the national average of inmate deaths. Josh has spent years reporting on the systemic abuse at the prison: from a 17-day solitary confinement blackout to inhumane conditions like freezing cells and medical neglect. Lamont, once incarcerated there himself, is now seeking justice after the suspicious death of his young cousin behind those same bars. Together, they created Death County, PA, a new podcast from Wondery that dives deep into the coverups, corruption, and devastating human cost of America’s broken prison system. In a country where the President is pushing for more incarceration, not less, this conversation couldn’t be more urgent. What does Dauphin County tell us about the future of American justice? And who’s really paying the price? This episode is brought to you by Beam. Visit https://shopbeam.com/LEMON and use code LEMON to get our exclusive discount of up to 40% off.

What started as protests against ICE raids has spiraled into something far more dangerous. Despite California officials saying they had things under control, Trump has now deployed not just the National Guard, but marines and even more National Guard to Los Angeles, all without the state’s consent. Governor Gavin Newsom is calling it what it is: federal overreach. So… is this a violation of states’ rights? Is Trump trying to provoke violence for political gain? And if this can happen in California, what’s stopping it from happening in your state next? Let's break it all down. The power grab, the escalation, the implications.

This conversation was too good to keep buried in the Substack archives. In this candid and wide-ranging sit-down, Don Lemon is joined by political analyst and writer Ahmed Baba to talk about the chaos of the current political moment and why independent media is more essential than ever. From the grift-filled mess that is Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” to the hilariously public meltdown of the Trump/Elon bromance, nothing is off-limits. Smart. Sharp. And very snarky.

For the second time today, we’re going live to break down the disturbing escalation in Los Angeles. Protests against ICE raids turned into a national crisis after Trump deployed the National Guard without California’s request, the first time a president has done that in decades. And now? The administration is reportedly preparing to deploy Marines. Yes, you read that right. Marines. Against civilians. For protesting. California officials are demanding they leave. Trump and his cabinet are doubling down. So we have to ask: Is this the American Gestapo? Has protest officially been reclassified as a threat to MAGA authority? Join us as we dig into the constitutional chaos, the growing authoritarian playbook, and what this all means for democracy, free speech, and your right to fight back.

Thousands of Los Angeles residents hit the streets to protest ICE’s increasingly aggressive raids, exercising their First Amendment rights, as Americans tend to do. But instead of listening or de-escalating, Donald Trump decided to call in the National Guard. That’s right: federal troops, deployed without the governor’s request for the first time in decades. California officials are demanding they stand down. Trump’s cabinet is doubling down. So the question is: Are we witnessing the rise of an American Gestapo? Is this just more MAGA authoritarian cosplay, or something far more dangerous? We’re digging into the legal, political, and moral chaos of the moment, because if the federal government is now targeting citizens for protesting injustice… that’s not law and order.
