On April 28th, Don Lemon is calling out what he sees as straight up false equivalents in the political blame game. He says it's not the same for Democrats to call Donald Trump bad for the country, as it is for Trump to rally a crowd on January 6th and tell them to. March to the Capitol and fight like hell. Lemon's fed up saying those things just aren't equal, especially after a recent shooting. The Trump team jumped on it hard right after Saturday's incident, pushing one clear message. Trump hit Democrats for their quote, dangerous hate speech in a 60-minute interview. House Speaker Mike Johnson backed it on Fox News, saying their words inside violence. White House press secretary Caroline Levin, enacting Attorney General Todd Blanche, piled on to. But data paints a different picture on political violence. A 2024 study from the National Institute of Justice showed far-right attacks outpacing all other types of terrorism and extremism. That report was on the Justice Department's site until they quietly pulled it in September.

Trump's no stranger to fiery talk himself. He's gone after journalists hard, called the Democratic Party America's biggest enemy after Iran on true social, and even labeled Lemon a sleaze bag. After his February arrest. Lemon got booked on federal civil rights charges tied to covering a protest at a church in St. Paul, Minnesota back in January. Lemon bounced back quick, vowing he won't quit reporting. With his career built on shining light on the truth and holding power accountable. This fight over words in whose really fanning the flames is far. From over. That's your entertainment and celebrity news today update. AI powered and always trending.
