Good morning. Good morning. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Hot Topics with Don Lemon.

I'm a little bit late. I know I'm sorry. I have been working way too hard. I'm so glad that you guys are with me. Also, I was trying to find

another place because we're not in the studio today. And I'm doing the show from home. One of my

producers needed to be at home. And so you see there's,

I don't know if you guys can see that crane.

It looks like a window washing thing, you know,

from, it looks like a window washing thing from buildings.

Well, the window washers.

They're not window washers.

They're doing, they're like fixing the bricks on my buildings.

So I will show you they are right outside of the,

my place. Let's see. And then so you can see they're right

outside over there where they're right there. And they're outside and there's music and I'm up on,

you see them moving. You can see the movement. So I'm up. I'm not exactly on a low floor. So they're working right outside of my home studio. And you'll probably be able to hear them and some knocking and what have you. So that's it. How are you guys doing this morning? I was trying to decide between, well, by the way, welcome, you know, this is a show where we get you caught up, and it's a little bit lighter than the show that we have at night.

So I was trying to decide between my view mug, and I'll tell you why that, or Wendy, my Wendy Williams mug.

Who am I channeling this morning? I think it's Wendy. Um,

and you guys know, I know all of the ladies at the view and I know Wendy as well.

And you know Wendy is really missing. Daytime television is really missing something with Wendy.

Wendy is missed. Say what you want.

A lot of people loved her.

A lot of people love her.

A lot of people hate her.
