CNN anchor Don Lemon lost whatever patience he had left with White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany during his monologue Tuesday night.

Lemon took issue with McEnany's consistent media criticism and how she has continued to deny President-elect Joe Biden is the rightful winner of the 2020 election.

"Do you know she worked for - girl, bye," Lemon said, referencing McEnany's time as a CNN commentator. "Girl, bye. Buh-bye."

He said McEnany "is acting like the election didn't even happen, acting like she's not about to be out of a job."

"So much disinformation coming from the podium," Lemon added. "It's every day."

Lemon described McEnany's persistent suggestions on what the news media should be covering as hypocritical given her history at the network.

McEnany began appearing on CNN as a law student and was highly critical of Trump as a candidate in 2015, calling one of his comments "racist" and "not the American way."

Lemon also asked why White House officials like McEnany "act like they're living in an alternate reality and universe?"

"You used to sit here on the set with us. I think we got it," Lemon said. "When you sat here with us, you thought we had it. You were happy to be here. But now we don't know what we're doing? Girl, bye."
