Just a few days ago, Donald Trump announced via tweet that he was ousting his Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, and replacing him with GOP Congressman Mark Meadows. We’re not sure when Meadows was supposed to show up and start doing the job, but now it turns out he won’t be showing up for awhile.

As of this evening, CNN is reporting that Mark Meadows is under quarantine for coronavirus exposure. He’ll remain that way through at least Wednesday. What’s interesting here is that Meadows says he has no symptoms, and he’s been tested and it’s come back negative. But the CDC website says that if you’re tested while you have no symptoms, it can come back negative even if you have the coronavirus. So Meadows could still have the virus, and he won’t know for sure until he makes it past the fourteen day exposure period on Wednesday with no symptoms.

So now we have Donald Trump, his new White House Chief of Staff, and several of his Republican House and Senate allies all potentially exposed to the coronavirus. Most of them are doing the right thing by quarantining themselves. The exceptions thus far are Trump and Louis Gohmert, who are refusing to isolate themselves, and are thus potentially putting people’s lives at risk.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
