Americans should be skeptical of a NBC News liberal moderating the final presidential debate after the network’s anti-Trump mud-slinging festival of a town hall it moderated last week. Donation records provide a glaring reason why. Earlier reporting showed that NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell personally gave at least $30,600 exclusively to Democrats this cycle while he was still Chairman of NBCU Film and Entertainment. FEC data showed that he had given the maximum FEC-allowed $2,800 to the failed presidential campaign of Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) — now Democratic nominee for president Joe Biden’s running mate. This means that the overseer of...

RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel appeared on CBS' "Face the Nation "on Sunday and called out the Presidential Debate Commission for their election interference.  "I think voters are very frustrated by the corrupt debate commission, that they would cancel a second debate," McDaniel told host Margaret Brennan. "I think it feeds in to the belief that this 47 years that Joe Biden has had in DC is again protecting him from facing the voters. And Americans are frustrated that this election commission interfered with our ability to see these two candidates debate."Brennan then repeated Democratic talking points, noting the existence of...

As President Trump recovers from the coronavirus, all Americans should wish him a speedy recovery and a quick return to the campaign trail. Hopefully, both campaigns can get back on track and focus on the policy differences which matter most to voters. The next debate between President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden is scheduled for October 15th. As a part of the town hall format, both candidates should be asked to answer questions about national defense policy and investments in future military technology. President Trump has established a solid record of supporting the military, but an honest campaign...

Don't fool yourself; the Democrats and the mainstream media don't want to cancel the next two presidential debates because they are worried about Americans' delicate sensibilities. Are you kidding me? They know that the ailing Joe Biden is hanging by a thread, and they're scared. Even if they believe Biden won the debate, as they claim, they know it was only by default -- because of a possible negative reaction to Donald Trump, as opposed to anything impressive coming from Biden. They'll do everything they can to avoid Biden taking the risk of being blown out of the water in...

Fox News’ Chris Wallace had his hands full during Tuesday night’s presidential debate, but many say the veteran anchor could’ve done a better job moderating the debate fairly. On Wednesday, the Daily Caller’s Greg Price posted several videos on Twitter highlighting the moments where Wallace appeared to press President Trump on several sensitive issues yet refused to apply the same standard when questioning Biden. One of those instances included Wallace refusing to press Biden on whether the Democrats intend to expand the number of justices on the Supreme Court. Wallace asked Biden if Democrats plan to eliminate the Senate filibuster...

Presidential debates are about many things. First and foremost, of course, is the result: which candidate performed better; which campaign will do better in the days and weeks to come? This is a difficult question. Unlike the debate programs of high schools and colleges, which have specific scoring rules so that victors can be objectively determined, a presidential debate is terribly subjective. One’s personal opinions of candidates and moderators, issues and parties, can’t help but factor into one’s evaluation. Nevertheless, they are always informative in some way, and the first presidential debate of 2020 did not fail to produce plenty...

LIVE at 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Sept. 29: President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden take part in the first presidential debate between the two candidates. The Cleveland, Ohio event is moderated by “Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Tuesday called President Trump "foolish" for his comments on the candidate's mental acuity and unfounded claims suggesting that Biden is taking performance-enhancing drugs, as some pundits are warning that Trump might be lowering expectations for his opponent in the first debate happening later this month. "I'm looking forward to the debate and he's a fool," Biden said in an interview with WFLA 8. "The comments are just foolish. Get ready, Mr. President, here I come." Biden laughed when the WFLA 8 reporter first started asking the question, referencing allegations Trump has made that Biden...

SHOCK FOOTAGE: Pro-Life Leader HANDCUFFED At Presidential Debates Created Equal brought the victims of abortion to Detroit, MI for the Presidential Debates. While there we were unlawfully harassed by police officers in the name of safety. Police enforced double standards and did not treat any of the other viewpoints as harshly as they treated the anti-abortion message and those who delivered it. The job of the police is to uphold the rule of law. Created Equal is grateful for many police officers who take up this mantle with integrity, but in this case they acted out unlawfully on more than...

President Trump threatened Wednesday not to participate in presidential debates sponsored by “fake news networks.” Riffing off a decision by the Democratic National Committee that Fox News is ineligible to host 2020 presidential primary debates because of pro-Republican bias, Mr. Trump said he’d reciprocate. “Democrats just blocked @FoxNews from holding a debate. Good, then I think I’ll do the same thing with the Fake News Networks and the Radical Left Democrats in the General Election debates!” he wrote.

Full title: Anti-Trump FOX NEWS Executive Investigated For Killing Stories on FBI Corruption & Obama Scandals; “He Hates Trump’s Guts” Excerpt: Shocking allegations coming from FOX News as officials probe a top executive who has reportedly allowed his anti-Trump politics to prevent the network from publishing breaking political and national security stories that would reflect positively on President Trump and his administration. FOX News’ Vice President of News & its D.C. bureau Managing Editor is under investigation for killing stories detailing FBI corruption as well as national security exposés uncovering corruption during the Barack Obama administration, according to well-placed sources...

By conventional wisdom, Donald Trump entered Sunday night’s debate with a nearly impossible task: trying to rehabilitate his bid for the White House after the worst two weeks a modern presidential candidate has had. The tape that surfaced Friday of Trump talking in 2005 in disgusting, coarse fashion about women — what he considers a seduction technique sounds like sexual assault — broke the Republican dam and triggered a flood of GOP lawmakers abandoning his candidacy. Trump not only seemed to slow the bleeding, he might have stopped it. His demeanor and delivery were far better than in the first...

The presidential debate moderators will not be allowed to wear earpieces, according to published reports. But what about the presidential candidates themselves? A voter in Maryland wrote Federal Elections Commissioner Matthew Petersen on Sept. 8 seeking a "clear response" to that question. "I read reports that during the televised event questioning each of the candidates on their qualifications to serve as Commander in Chief, that Secretary Clinton had a microphone in her ear to receive prompting and guidance from advisers off stage," wrote Laurence B of Columbia, MD. [A check of his name and address at the Maryland State Board...

Will Donald Trump be treated impartially in the debates moderated by Commission designated liberals, not likely. Can Donald Trump overcome the partiality, we will see? The debates between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are being organized organized by The Commission on Presidential Debates. The 2016 debates are already scheduled and the ‘moderators’ have been chosen. The commission is labeled as ‘non partisan’ but is it really? The mere fact that that three of the debates are ‘moderated’ by people from the three major news networks itself should be a clue as to the false ‘non partisan’ nature of the debates...

The Presidential Debate moderators have not yet been chosen. Therefore my question is who should NOT be a debate moderator? Not just somebody who has some bias but someone who under NO CONDITION should be allowed to moderate any of the debates. I'll lead off by naming two: 1. Shepard Smith---Not after what he said about Trump "trading in racism" this week. 2. John Harwood of CNBC---Not after he completely disgraced himself at the GOP debates last year.

Donald Trump says he will 'absolutely' attend all three general election debates - under certain conditions. 'I'll have to see who the moderators are. Yeah, I would say that certain moderators would be unacceptable, absolutely,' Trump told Time magazine in an interview today. 'I want to have fair moderators … I will demand fair moderators.'
