Is this true?? I really find it hard to believe that the Commission would allow this. Also, the Commission would know that it would become public.

Why is there a “Commission on Presidential Debates”?

Who has the authority to create such a thing?

Our GOP candidate will need to tell the commission that there won’t be a debate without a balance of moderators. Their is no reason to attend if all the moderators are confirmed RAT operatives.

The Commission was probably told what to do.

They no longer care what comes out because nothing is ever done about anything.

Well, the Commission can NOT be allowed to get by with this. Cruz or Trump should say something. Trump esp could say something on national TV.

...but didn’t extend that courtesy to either George W. Bush or his father

Because they don't need a UNIPARTY/NWO representative because Clinton is handling that just fine? How about a CONSERVATIVE representative?

Nevermind.....

Great questions, Jim Noble. BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM - layers and layers and layers of it.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

"Who has the authority to create a 'Commission on Presidential Debates? ' "

You asked the pertinent question on this thread.

The very word "Commission" usually will bring to mind some kind of government connection. Are the feds in any way funding this "Commission" out of taxpayers' monies?

If not, there's always expenses connected with big-league "commissions" or "committees". If so, who's payin' the freight? Voluntary donors, the commission members themselves...or we suckers?

Let's have a little transparency here, particularly since two fraudsters, Hill and Bill, may eventually have their fingers into this pie. This pie reeks already.

If anyone knows from whence this cozy commission sprang or springs, please ping me. I tried some researching myself and came up empty-handed.

During my time observing political/societal shenanigans, I learned there need not be any authorized by law organization to just step up and create an official front for any desired political objective. If such served the powers that be so be it.
