About this episode

Jon Stewart dives into Harrison Butker’s controversial speech, the subsequent Fox News outrage that he's being canceled, and how the real purveyor of cancel culture is Donald Trump and the MAGA movement. Plus, co-founder and co-chair of the Commission on Presidential Debates, Frank J. Fahrenkopf Jr., talks about founding the commission with the goal of representing voters from a nonpartisan perspective, how the media has affected debates over the years, and Trump and Biden’s decision to go around the commission for their upcoming presidential debates.
