3:05pm- While appearing on CNN, National Press Secretary for the 2024 Trump Campaign Karoline Leavitt had her interview cut short by anchor Kasie Hunt. Hunt accused Leavitt of attacking her CNN colleagues Jake Tapper and Dana Bash by suggesting the two moderators of Thursday’s debate have regularly expressed disdain for Donald Trump and support for Joe Biden. A montage pieced together by Newsbusters proves Leavitt’s point—Tapper and Bash are not objective. One clip even shows Tapper referring to Trump’s presidency as a “national nightmare.”

4:45pm- Emma Colton of Fox News writes: “The Trump campaign says a recent fact-check report debunking the claim that then-President Trump spoke favorably of neo-Nazis in 2017 shows President Biden and his campaign had promoted a ‘lie’ and called on them to not promote the ‘hoax’ again. Left-leaning fact-checking website Snopes published a piece Saturday debunking claims promoted by President Biden and some members of the media that following the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, Trump called neo-Nazis ‘very fine people.’ Biden has repeatedly cited the false claim, even saying it was the impetus for his 2020 White House run against Trump.” You can read the full article here: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/snopes-debunking-charlottesville-hoax-shows-biden-lied-says-trump-campaign
