Fox News stunner: Donald Trump “committed a felony”

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.

It’s being reported that Donald Trump is so overwhelmed by everything that’s going wrong for him, he refused to get out of bed today. That means he was probably watching Fox News, in the hope of hearing some small shard of real or imaginary good news for him. If he was watching Fox this afternoon, he ended hearing the precise opposite.

Fox News legal analyst “Judge Andrew Napolitano” – who used to be something of a Donald Trump apologist – shocked a lot of people last week when he predicted that Donald Trump Jr will be indicted and arrested on various criminal charges. Today, as the news was coming down about Michael Cohen’s three year prison sentence and David Pecker’s cooperation deal against Trump, Napolitano took things quite a bit further.

Judge Napolitano flat out stated on-air today that “the President of the United States committed a felony” by illegally instructing Michael Cohen to buy the silence of his mistresses during the election. While we would disagree with the notion that Donald Trump is the legitimate “President” of anything, Napolitano’s legal interpretation is spot-on. So what’s going on here?

There is a clear pattern developing at Fox News over the past week. Napolitano has pegged Donald Trump and his son as felons. Tucker Carlson, one of the biggest Trump cheerleaders over the past two years, now says Trump is a failure. Fox is a for-profit business, and its conservative propaganda is all about ratings, not ideology. If Fox execs have decided that even their gullible audience is figuring out that Trump is a criminal and he’s toast, their best business move is to tell their on-air personalities that they’re free to take Trump’s legs out.
