Here comes the big baby lie

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.

Pro-baby. This is what the GOP would have you believe they are. They’re not. This is their “big baby lie.” This is the second of the “big lies.” Or maybe it’s the 100th. See, the GOP lies so much that I can no longer keep track. It is always important to judge by actions — not words.

Words are pretty and can come easily to one’s lips. But at the end of the day, they are just — words — words turned into sentences, but sometimes these sentences are deceptive.

So actions, not words, tell the story. And the bottom line is on Thursday, nearly EVERY House Republican voted no on a bill that would increase the baby formula supply. It would have seen $28 million sent to the FDA for this very thing — $28 million! Nah, said most House Republicans who, with a seeming lack of concern, cheerfully voted no.

See, your baby — the country’s babies — does not matter to these people. They’re pawns. Their FORMULA is a pawn. The bill passed anyway — with not much help from Republicans. I think we need to chip away at the stone. What I mean by that is we need to go hard at the foundation of the GOP’s imagined concerns.

Their baby concerns. This is a political non-party that doesn’t give a damn about the children — the babies — anything — except holding power over women, appointing conservative judges, banning books, and giving their buddies tax breaks.

That’s it. That is their plan — for America. It is ironic that after weeks of politicizing this issue, the GOP just GAVE this issue the middle finger. They couldn’t care less! And that’s what we saw. Remember, dear friends: actions always tell the story. Actions do not lie. And the actions of the GOP show they wanted NO action at all.
