Joe Biden and Donald Trump are set to meet for a televised debate on June 27 unlike any other.

It's time to play presidential debate bingo! The game where you play along as President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump face off in the first of two debates as they compete to win the White House this November. The debate is set to begin Thursday at 9 p.m. EDT.

The debate will air on CNN and CNN International and will be streamed live on CNN.com. It will be carried by Fox News and NewsNation. ABC News, who will host the second presidential debate in September, announced it would air the first debate with a pre-show and post-debate analysis. The network's coverage will be available to stream on Hulu Thursday from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m.

CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash are moderating the event, and both presidential candidates had to agree to a set of rules to participate. The 90-minute debate will have two commercial breaks, but campaign staff will not be allowed to interact with the candidates during that time. The debate won't feature a live studio audience, and candidates' microphones will be muted throughout the debate except when it is their turn to speak.

USA TODAY will also stream the debate on its YouTube channel.

Trump immunity ruling hands big decisions to Judge Tanya Chutkan
The U.S. Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling on Monday sends the federal case accusing Donald Trump of attempting to overturn his 2020 defeat back to Judge Tanya Chutkan for critical decisions that will shape the future of the historic prosecution. Chutkan, a judge on the U.S. District Court in Washington, will have to decide whether a pair of Supreme Court rulings requires some of the allegations against the Republican presidential candidate be tossed out. She will also decide on the timing of the trial, which will determine whether a jury hears evidence that Trump sought to subvert the last election before his Nov. 5 election rematch with Democratic President Joe Biden.
