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.

Don’t get too excited yet about that FBI probe into how Susan Collins’ 2020 campaign was illegally funded. There’s no indication yet that they can tie it directly back to her. And it’s not going to somehow magically invalidate her 2020 election victory, unless it turns out to be a much bigger and broader scandal than is being reported. But it’s funny how these types of scandals always happen with Trump-complicit Republicans like Collins.

– Lauren Boebert just said she’s going to become Speaker of the House. That’s hilarious. She and I have the same odds of becoming Speaker of the House, and I’m not running.

– Democrat Val Demings is apparently running for Senator against Marco Rubio in 2022. Democrat Nikki Fried is apparently running for Governor against Ron DeSantis in 2022. Palmer Report is all-in to help flip Florida for the Democrats. Who’s with us?
