Melania Trump’s chief of staff cuts and runs in wake of U.S. Capitol attack

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Donald Trump caused a domestic terrorist attack against the U.S. Capitol Building today, resulting in at least one death, and then he voiced support for the terrorists. After this debacle, Trump is now essentially finished in American life. We’ve been wondering how many people around him might run for the exits.

CNN is now reporting that Melania Trump’s Chief of Staff Stephanie Grisham has immediately resigned, in response to the terrorist debacle. This is notable because Grisham has been particularly close to the Trumps, and at one point served as Donald Trump’s White House Press Secretary. But now she’s suddenly bailing. We expect to see more of this as the night goes on.
