LIMBAUGH WAS SPOT ON ABOUT THE DEBATE LASTNIGHT.

Editorial Note: Yesterday on the Rush Limbaugh show, Limbaugh said that debate would show Bidden would show contempt toward Trump, and that happened. The monitor, Chris Wallace of FOX  news became Biden's nurse maid. It was Wallace who said he wanted to be invisible, he ended up front and  center of the debate. 

Limbaugh also mention how the DNC press will cover it, he was right there too. Here is the transcript of yesterday's show.

The Debate Bar Couldn’t Be Lower for Biden (And I Still Think He Won’t Show)


Here is the video of the debate from CSPAN


Here are a view stories reflecting that:


With Cross Talk, Lies and Mockery, Trump Tramples Decorum in Debate With Biden

Interrupting Joe Biden nearly every time he spoke, President Trump made little attempt to reassure swing voters about his leadership. Mr. Biden hit back: “This is so unpresidential.”---NY TIMES


Biden says president has made U.S. more divided as Trump interrupts and slings insults

The bickering overwhelmed a debate that displayed substantive differences between President Trump and Joe Biden on the nation’s converging crises. The president’s interjections and jeers led moderator Chris Wallace to repeatedly plead with him to follow the agreed-upon rules.--Washington Post


Trump, allies hammer Wallace after tense debate--The Hill


Analysis: Trump needed the debate to change a race he’s losing; instead, he doubled down

Trump has tried for a year to find attack strategies that would throw Biden off stride. So far, none has done the job. At the debate, he just repeated them.---LA TIMES


Editorial note: That was just a few samples how the DNC press viewed last night's debate.

Here are a few stories from the right side media:


Here's How We Know Trump Won the First Debate--PJ MEDIA

President Trump didn’t always respond effectively or in a timely manner to Joe Biden’s false accusations. Biden’s insults and interjections were the polar opposite of presidential. Chris Wallace might as well have worn a Biden campaign button. But through all the noise of Tuesday night’s debate, complete with the usual partisan post-mortems featuring Biden supporters mostly assessing Biden as the winner of the debate and Trump supporters mostly assessing Trump as the winner, there seems to be a far better metric by which we can definitively determine last night’s winner.


Chris Wallace Just Gave The Most Embarrassing Moderator Performance In History

'Well, first of all, I guess I’m debating you, not him,' Trump said to Chris Wallace during Tuesday's 2020 presidential debate. Fact check: True.--The Federalist


The First Debate Showed Why Biden Will Win

Not being Hillary Clinton was enough for Trump to win in 2016. He doesn't have that virtue now.--National Review


Slow Joe’s So-So Show

Give him credit for surviving a 90-minute debate, but Biden’s mumbling, stuttering performance doesn’t inspire confidence.--American Spectator




TODAY'S TOP HEADLINE...


Poulos unanimously reappointed to head Statewide Reentry Council.

Washington State Commerce Dept.


OLYMPIA, WA — The Washington Statewide Reentry Council unanimously reappointed Christopher Poulos to serve a second three-year term as executive director. The decision by council members came after a successful first term of notable activities and accomplishments.


“I am incredibly honored that the council had the faith in my work and our progress to reappoint me for a second three-year term,” said Poulos. “Successful reentry and community reintegration occur when internal healing and growth is met with external opportunity. We remain committed to doing everything within our power to help facilitate both.”


Since Poulos’ appointment to this position in October 2017, he has worked with council members, legislators and advocacy groups to help secure the passage of 19 council-priority bills into law.


Additionally, he built strong interagency relationships, serving multiple state and national criminal justice-related task forces and working groups. He did this while also engaging with incarcerated people, community members and stakeholder organizations across Washington to promote successful post-incarceration reintegration.


Over this upcoming three-year term, which begins on Oct. 1, Poulos and the council have focused on six major categories of work: racial equity, housing, centering community, education, employment and improving communication. Currently, the council is working with multiple coalitions on legislation aimed at ending housing discrimination against individuals with criminal records and expanding voting rights to people living in our communities while remaining on community supervision.


As a response to COVID-19, the council provided direct funding to community organizations assisting with reentry efforts and held listening sessions to better connect resource providers throughout the state. The council has urged the Washington Legislature to continue expanding funding for community organizations to offer more support to these vital programs.


Additional council priorities include supporting efforts to reform community corrections, increasing “good time,” and expanding the Department of Corrections housing voucher program.


Poulos, who was formerly incarcerated, developed his expertise on addiction and criminal justice policy through life experience long before entering government work. As a teen, he experienced homelessness and substance use disorder, eventually resulting in a drug-related conviction and a three-year federal prison sentence. Following his release, Poulos graduated cum laude from the University of Maine School of Law.


During law school, he served as president of the American Constitution Society and represented youth facing criminal charges. He also served at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy under the Obama Administration and worked with The Sentencing Project. Poulos also advised Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) on addiction and justice policy and served on several local, state and federal task forces related to criminal justice policy.


Before his executive director role for the Statewide Reentry Council, he served as executive director of Life of Purpose Treatment at the University of North Texas, where he was also an adjunct professor of Criminal Justice. Poulos has also recently served as an adjunct professor of Political Science at Seattle Central Community College and an adjunct law professor at Seattle University. Currently, his work promotes equal access to the law and seeks to end mass incarceration and the associated consequences now facing the tens of millions of people in the U.S. with criminal convictions.


The work of the Washington Statewide Reentry Council has garnered significant local and national attention since it was established in 2016, including an article about voting rights in the Harvard Law and Policy Review and stories in the Seattle Times, New York Times, NBC News and elsewhere. Poulos himself has openly shared his personal story with the Washington Post, NBC, Inside Olympia and others, and in a 2015 TED Talk.
