Dear Palmer Report readers,
We all understand what a dark era we're heading into. Journalists will be prosecuted. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. Advertising networks can't be counted on. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight, because someone has to.
In that regard we're looking to start funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens or how dark things get. We've launched a reader supported fund, and we've already raised $785 and counting. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can contribute here. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Bill Palmer

Donald Trump just can’t seem to avoid controversies this week that involve bodily functions. Even as he desperately tries to fend off the infamous “Russian pee pee tape” scandal, the organizers of his inauguration rolled in a bunch of port-a-potties which just happened to have been made by a very real company which had the fitting name of Don’s Johns. And after workers taped over the “Don’s Johns” logo on the portable toilets, one prankster decided to give them a new name instead.
One of our readers tipped us off to the handiwork of an unknown prankster, who apparently used a black magic marker to rebrand the port-a-potties as “Trump Tower”…
And so there we have it. During a week in which Donald Trump is fending off a scandal involving peeing, he gets stuck with “Don’s Johns” portable toilets which sounded like they were named after him – and then someone went and really did name them after him.
