If it wasn’t already the most anticipated election debate in modern American political history, but now there’s some interesting twists: the ground rules for the debate, which include ear inspections and break requests.

Team Trump wants the debate to be fair and square between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden. There’s been some speculation among the public that Biden may have an electronic device in his ear with someone helping him with the questions. That would be a big, no, no!

There is no information or evidence suggesting that he has other than the clarity he’s shown during several speeches that didn’t quite appear to be his normal past behavior.

Benny Johnson, with Turning Point USA posted on Twitter that “Team Trump requested that each candidate have their ears inspected for electronic devices before the debate, Team Biden has not consented.”

“Team Biden has also requested a break every 30 minutes during tonight’s Debate,” added Johnson, who along with others began posting the new ground rules on Tuesday afternoon.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced Tuesday that attorney and tech entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan will be his vice presidential running mate in the upcoming election. The Independent candidate announced his choice for the 38-year-old Oakland, California native by praising her insight into “how Big Tech uses AI to manipulate the public,” her athletic ability, and willingness to be a “partner” in a number of policy areas, including on securing the border.

Fox News writes that Shanahan is a philanthropist with a long history of donating to Democrat and left-leaning causes, including supporting President Biden in his 2020 election bid before switching to Kennedy when he launched his own run for the Democrat nomination last year.

She is the founder and president of Bia-Echo Foundation, a private firm that describes its mission as focused on “new frontiers in reproductive longevity & equality, criminal justice reform and a healthy & livable planet.”

Fox News reports Shanahan initially dropped her support for Kennedy after he decided to run as an independent, but later got behind him again by giving $4 million to the super PAC that boosted his candidacy with a John F. Kennedy-themed campaign ad that ran during the Super Bowl in February.

Shanahan also previously donated to Democrat presidential candidates Marianne Williamson and Pete Buttigieg during the 2020 presidential race, and threw more than $150,000 behind progressive Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon’s 2020 election bid.

Shanahan, a life-long Democrat, told the crowd that she was leaving the party.

“The Democratic Party is supposed to be the party of compassion. It is supposed to be the party of free speech, and most importantly, the party of the middle class and the American dream,” Shanahan said.

“While I know many Democrats still abide by those values…I do believe they’ve lost their way in their leadership,” she continued.

And she urged “disillusioned” Democrats and Republicans to support Kennedy’s independent White House bid.
