During the Republican presidential primary debate, candidate Vivek Ramaswamy accused NBC News debate moderator Kristen Welker of promoting the conspiracy that Donald Trump colluded with Russia in the 2016 election.
This claim is true, as Welker, during her time as a White House correspondent for NBC News, routinely promoted reports that falsely suggested Trump colluded with Russia.

“Kristen, I’m going to use this time because this is actually about you and the media and the corrupt media establishment,” Ramaswamy pressed.
“[I will] ask you: the Trump-Russia collusion hoax that you pushed on this network for years, was that real, or was that Hillary Clinton made-up disinformation? Answer the question, go.”
Welker ignored the question and the debate moderators swiftly moved on to another candidate.
This incident aligns with Ramaswamy’s assertion that Welker heavily reported on the Trump-Russia conspiracy.
