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.

In the wake of his Cancun debacle, Republican Senator Ted Cruz seems to have nothing left to do with himself but to play internet troll in the halls of Congress. Cruz led the way this week in blocking a bill that would have helped veterans with their health care.

Jon Stewart lambasted Cruz for the unpatriotic stunt, and Cruz weakly tried firing back at Stewart. That’s when DNC Chair Jaime Harrison stepped in and dropped the hammer on Ted Cruz:

“Dude stop lying! That pork you smelled was your bacon getting fried by the American people! Vets who dedicated their lives to the nation are dying every day & there you are fist bumping because you stopped a bill that helps them. That’s low … even for you.”
