Looks like Donald Trump has taken Mark Meadows down with him

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.

Mark Meadows has been caught on tape committing felony election tampering, alongside Donald Trump. Will Trump try to pardon him for it? Will such a pardon hold up in court? Will Meadows cut a plea deal against Trump? Will Georgia hit Meadows with state charges? Either way, Meadows is now facing a terrible, ruined life from here on out.

Meadows deserves it, of course. He volunteered to become the White House Chief of Staff for Trump, at a time when it was already clear to all involved that Trump was in the midst of a prolonged crime spree. Meadows helped Trump commit those crimes.

Meadows will argue at his trial that he only did it because he was trying to keep Trump from getting even further out of line. But that’s not a valid defense. If you go along with your pals on what you know is going to bank robbery, you can’t argue in court that you only did it to keep them from killing the hostages. That argument might get Meadows a shorter sentence, but not an acquittal. Meadows is a criminal, and now he’ll pay for it.
