I am getting a date that comes in GMT format, Fri, 18 Oct 2013 11:38:23 GMT. The problem is that the time is messing up the timeline that I am using.
How can I strip out everything except for the actual date?

var d=new Date(); //your date object console. log(new Date(d. setHours(0,0,0,0))); -PS, you don't need a new Date object, it's just an example in case you want to log it to the console.
To remove the T and Z characters from an ISO date in JavaScript, we first need to have the date in ISO format. If you don't have it already, you can convert it to ISO using the toISOString function on a Date object. This will get rid of both T and Z, resulting in "2022-06-22 07:54:52.657".
GMT is a time zone officially used in some European and African countries. The time can be displayed using both the 24-hour format (0 - 24) or the 12-hour format (1 - 12 am/pm). UTC is not a time zone, but a time standard that is the basis for civil time and time zones worldwide.
If you want to keep using Date and not String you could do this:
var d=new Date(); //your date object console.log(new Date(d.setHours(0,0,0,0))); -PS, you don't need a new Date object, it's just an example in case you want to log it to the console.

Like this:
var dateString = 'Mon Jan 12 00:00:00 GMT 2015'; dateString = new Date(dateString).toUTCString(); dateString = dateString.split(' ').slice(0, 4).join(' '); console.log(dateString); I'm using this workaround :
// d being your current date with wrong times
new Date(d.getFullYear(), d.getMonth(), d.getDate())
