Nancy Pelosi just gave Mike Pence a deadline for pulling the plug

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.

No matter how your weekend is going, whether your football team is winning in the playoffs or not, the odds are that you’re having a better weekend than Donald Trump and Mike Pence are. Trump’s presidency and life are in ruins, and Pence is trying to figure out when or if to remove Trump from office via the 25th Amendment.

Now things just got even harder for Pence. It turns out Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has given Pence a deadline of Sunday evening to invoke the 25th Amendment, or else she’ll move forward with impeachment. Right around the time this news surfaced, Pence leaked that he only wants to invoke the 25th if Trump becomes “more unstable” than he already is. There’s no way that Pelosi will see that as a satisfactory answer, so Pence has about sixteen hours to step up.
