The first 2024 debate is here: The GOP field's set to meet tonight (without Trump). But why do we do debates? Do they even matter? Sometimes, yes...a lot.

Here are 5 moments from recent primary debates that actually changed the trajectory of the nominating contest — and history. Image
2008: Hillary Clinton struggles to take a clear stance on giving driver's licenses to “illegal immigrants.”

Her attempt at nuance reinforced a central criticism of her candidacy — that she was overly cautious and poll-tested — helping fuel Barack Obama's ultimate victory.

The Fed has steadily raised interest rates since March 2022, playing catchup as inflation soared to 40-year highs. After its June pause, that campaign resumed today — with yet another rate hike. Image

THREAD: There was backlash to the backlash at a heated school board hearing in Florida’s deep-red Hernando County on Tuesday.

You should see what teachers, students, and parents said about right-wing culture wars and anti-LGBTQ policies that are driving some educators to quit.
“I have never seen such fear from my colleagues as I’ve seen in the last two months.”

— Social studies teacher Victoria Hunt says “the culture that has been created” in Hernando County, Florida, is driving teachers to leave “the county, the state, or the profession altogether.”
Parent at the Hernando County, Florida, school board hearing Tuesday: “I’m appalled by how many gay people are here.”

*Crowd cheers*
