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 $3360 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 finally spoke to the press this morning, and proceeded to spin conspiracy theories about how drones are spying on him at his Bedminster home, seemed to imply that the drones are UFOs, and apparently no longer knows how to pronounce “Bedminster.” This guy is a complete goner. Trump’s babysitters still can’t seem to figure out whether to put him out there and let him embarrass himself like this, or keep him hidden and have his presidency fall apart passively. It continues to be a no-win situation for them.
– Yet another deadly school shooting today, and Americans still don’t want to do anything about gun control reform. I wish I knew how to make people care. All you need to know about the American electorate is that they voted for an anti-vaccine administration right after a vaccine saved them from dying in a plague. It’s just sad.
– Whenever I open Twitter these days, there’s a 70% chance an Elon Musk tweet will be the first thing I see. Imagine being so insecure about the value of what you have to say, you have to buy and rig an entire platform just so your words come up first. It’s why I’m spending more time on BlueSky.
