Summary

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Fox News anchor Bret Baier for easily blowing up the Democrats' ridiculous narrative about debates, enjoy watching a studio audience laugh at the idea of CNN being objective but highlight the disturbing truth beneath it, and they document the ongoing hall-of-fame level grift perpetrated by the Lincoln Project.

First, they react to Bret Baier immediately shredding the weak argument from New York Rep, Dan Goldman that Donald Trump is afraid to debate Kamala Harris - and pointing out that Harris is the one refusing to commit to debates right now.

Next, they get a kick out of the audience at "The Late Show" getting a good laugh out Stephen Colbert suggesting that CNN is "objective" and just "report the news as it is" - in front of a CNN anchor. Jim and Greg break down how just the few weeks are ample proof of how most media are purely activists these days, how politics have ruined late night TV and more.

Finally, they reflect on the latest financial statement from the #NeverConservatives at The Lincoln Project, showing it spends more than 90 percent of its money on "overhead" and a lot of that money just ends up in separate "media" entities run by current Lincoln project figures and their allies. And all donors ever get for their money is amateurish videos that have no impact on any elections.
