    As we part ways with Don, we wish him well in his future endeavors. Don't let that shirt tail get caught in the door on the way out, Don.

    As always, the most trusted name in news.. CNN

    So I say to Don Lemon, I say, let’s do it, Don Lemon, let’s have dessert. We’ve been here awhile, eating lunch, and we’re having a good time, so likable is Don Lemon, so open is he to my questions, so warm is his smile. And maybe he can be coaxed into it. We are at the restaurant at the Museum of Modern Art, and the portions are modern-art-sized, and he just had his photo shoot yesterday—he’d suspended all manner of salt and other bloateries in the days leading up to it and would love to cut loose a little. But he still needs persuading, since it is a known thing that dessert is one of the principal sacrifices of people who regularly appear on TV. But he relents, because Don Lemon is not the kind of guy who will make you eat dessert alone. The negotiation: He’ll do it, but it’ll have to be light. I look up and down the menu and suggest that the sorbet looks promising, given his totally understandable criteria.

    He leans in, big warm smile, not wanting to correct me, but needing to: "Sorbette," he says, like a news anchor. "It’s pronounced sorbette."

    "Sorbette," I repeat, shaky. I smile, not quite understanding the joke.

    "Sorbette," he says with the confidence of a man who informs hundreds of thousands of Americans each night about what is happening across this land as well as many others. "It’s pronounced sorbette." Sorbette! Could he be right? I’ve been saying it like a French word for years, like a complete asshole. Have I, a native English speaker, a graduate of a four-year college, a frequent eater of frozen desserts, been mispronouncing it all this time?...

    ...But now here comes the waiter, and he asks if we’ve decided, and Don Lemon asks for the sorbette, and the waiter looks at Lemon like, Are you joking? I give the waiter the silent, wide-eyed micro head shake—No, he’s serious, proceed with caution—but the waiter has guts that I don’t, and so he says, "It’s sor-bay, sir."

    He seems to think in terms of race/sex/gender. This is the very essence of iden y politics and is a precursor to racism and bigotry.

    He should check his own peeps, Tucker Carlson is out as well

    Is the irony lost on you that your Party openly believes in "systematic racism" and CRT for starters?

    I don't disagree that democrats believe it exists. I don't equate that to believing in it. As for CRT, judge it on the merits instead of the false talking points.

    Identifying racism isn't the same as iden y politics.

    To quote Chapelle, "Tough break, . There's always B.E.T."



    He's going to end up on Fox and Carlson will end up back on CNN.

    Lemon is not indicted as a journalist. He is indicted for his participation in the conspiracy to deprive the Cities Church worshipers of their First Amendment rights (Count I) and for violation of the FACE Act (Count II). The conspiracy count is supported by 24 overt acts, more than half of which name him specifically or include him among “all” defendants. The indictment alleges overt acts that go beyond mere reporting. Is the First Amendment a shield in this case? We shall see.

    If only there weren't 23 other overt acts - taken in combination with this one - you might have a point.

    That's yoni's secret police.

    Two judges looked at the same information and said there was no probable cause

    DOJ took it to a grand jury with zero line AUSAs being willing to sign it, only political appointees

    Y'all are gonna lose
