Kathy Barnette, Gregory Wrightstone & "Jimmy from Brooklyn"

Don Lemon is abruptly fired from CNN, the same day that Fox News announces it has parted ways with Tucker Carlson. Could Lemon's departure have anything with a recent exchange with Vivek Ramaswamy, in which Lemon told the presidential candidate his skin isn't dark enough to debate him on race? Rich welcomes advisor to the Ramaswamy campaign Kathy Barnette.

Later, we meet geologist Gregory Wrightstone, executive director of the CO2 Coalition and bestselling author of "Inconvenient Facts: The Science that Al Gore doesn't want you to know."

We also hear from "Jimmy from Brooklyn, " historian on communism, with thoughts on Earth Day and Stalin.
