Republican debate

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson said he'd be willing to co-host—along with Elon Musk and Joe Rogan—a GOP presidential primary debate.

From means testing to ending foreign wars, Republican candidates presented plans to save Social Security.

Higher requirements to take part in the next debate mean that some former participants have not made the cut.

On Wednesday night, the country had the opportunity to hear from all of the major Republican candidates running for president. On Fox News, you had the Republican debate, featuring eight candidates. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump skipped the debate and instead aired a pre-recorded interview that he did with Tucker Carlson on Twitter.

The second day of the 11-day Iowa State Fair was for lesser Republican underdogs. Day Three will see at least seven presidential candidates, including former President and far-ahead GOP frontrunner Donald Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, and Democrat Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., make pitches.

Donald Trump declared Tuesday he would boycott the last Republican debate before the Iowa caucuses, leading Texas Sen. Ted Cruz to challenge him to a one-on-one debate
