Donald Trump suddenly has a huge $100 million problem

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.

When something shocking happens like the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the political fallout can be complex and unpredictable. But in general, the side that’s the most motivated by it tends to end up in the strongest position. By all accounts, RBG’s passing has motivated the Resistance in unprecedented fashion.

Democratic Party fundraising group ActBlue posted this tweet tonight: “Small-dollar donors have now given $100 million on ActBlue since 8 p.m. ET Friday, investing in candidates up and down the ballot and orgs on the front lines of the impending judicial confirmation fight. The grassroots is ready to fight to honor Justice Ginsburg’s legacy.”

This $100 million haul is in addition to the various other methods of donating to Democratic Party candidates. If this outpouring of donations is indicative of just how fiercely the Resistance is willing to continue fighting over these next six weeks, let’s just say that things are looking good.
