Fox News implodes after House Republicans cave on shutdown threat

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.

House Republicans spent a month insisting they were going to shut down the government no matter what. But they were always likely to cave and pass a continuing resolution, because their side simply doesn’t have the votes for a shutdown. They didn’t back in May, and nothing has changed since.

So that speaks for itself. This is such a catastrophic failure for the Republican Party, its mouthpieces on Fox News are literally talking about 300 pound pigs instead.
