Don Lemon Rebukes Megyn Kelly Over Political Violence, Race Comments

Don Lemon strongly rebuked Megyn Kelly for her criticism of his comments blaming recent political violence on white men, pointing out the irony that his husband, Tim Malone, is a white man. Lemon accused Kelly and Glenn Greenwald of avoiding honest discussions about political violence, particularly the role of right-wing radicalized white men, and instead deflecting the conversation to broader crime issues to maintain their political base. He condemned Kelly for downplaying racism and accused her of recycling racist narratives that unfairly target Black men as the real problem. Lemon's response included a harsh rebuke telling Kelly to "get the f**k out of here," highlighting her history of minimizing racial issues, including controversies involving Blackface and comments about Black Santa. He emphasized his commitment to speaking the truth despite backlash and criticized Kelly and others for spreading misinformation. Lemon's remarks were delivered during his YouTube show following Kelly's public comments and her guest appearance with Greenwald.
