CNN’s Don Lemon prompted millions of Americans to wonder if the end of the world was nigh after he gave an uncharacteristically rational analysis of the police shooting of Ma’Khia Bryant in Columbus, Ohio. In fact, his exchange with fellow media activist Chris Cuomo was so out of character that it likely caused many to reflect on the accuracy of malfunctioning timepieces.
Don Lemon Chimes in on Police Shooting
On a recent airing of CNN Tonight, Lemon made remarks that went against the typical leftist demonization of police officers during a short exchange with Cuomo. He urged viewers to use “common sense” when looking at stories involving police shootings of black Americans.
“When I look at this video, I see police responding to a dangerous incident where someone is armed with a knife,” Lemon said. “Police have walked up on a situation they need to figure out what’s happening. Other lives are in danger.” He continued: “If we’re going to discuss this case, we need to be honest and use our common sense, we cannot have a double standard. We have to acknowledge that police have jobs to do.”
Outrage erupted shortly after the announcing of the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial when bodycam footage emerged showing an officer shooting Bryant as she seemed to be preparing to stab another female, who is also black. Many on the hard left attempted to promote the usual “racist cop shoots black person because everything is racist” trope despite the fact that the other girl’s life was in danger. As can be imagined, some were not too happy about Lemon’s newfound and likely short-lived common sense. The ladies of The View took umbrage at the notion that a police officer should use force to save a black girl’s life.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
