HOT TOPICS | DHS Considers Citizenship Reality Show! - May 16th, 2025
from The Don Lemon Show · host Lemon Media Network
Just when you thought we’d hit peak dystopia, DHS and “ICE Barbie” Kristi Noem are reportedly considering a new reality show where immigrants compete for U.S. citizenship. Yes, seriously. The working title? “The American.” Because apparently, we’re now turning human rights into primetime entertainment. How would it work? Who decides who’s “American enough”? And how did we go from give us your tired, your poor to give us a good camera angle and a sob story? Don breaks down the terrifyingly real details of this immigration-as-reality-TV nightmare and what it says about the current administration’s obsession with cruelty as content. Because apparently deportation wasn’t humiliating enough without a ratings bump. This episode is brought to you by the Freedom From Religion Foundation.
