About this episode

There’s new developments in the Herschel Walker scandal as The New York Times reports Walker’s accuser alleges he urged her to have a 2nd abortion. The panel discusses if the Republicans will continue to look past the GOP Senate candidate's alleged behavior, and the credibility of his colleagues in continuing to assert that he’s anti-abortion. Former police officer Michael Fanone defended the Capitol during the insurrection. Now a CNN Law Enforcement Analyst, he speaks with Don about his new book on January 6 and his taped conversation with GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy.

Former Obama Senior Adviser David Axelrod joins to discuss President Biden’s statement about the prospect of nuclear armageddon and how seriously the US is taking Putin’s nuclear threats. And, the end of an era – the final show closes with memorable moments from the past eight years of Don Lemon Tonight. Thanks for listening.
