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.

When Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell called Marjorie Taylor Greene a “loony” and a “cancer” yesterday, it was clear that he was worried that her antics will cost the Republican Party any shot in the 2022 midterm elections.

Now Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is seizing on the moment, using Mitch McConnell’s words to call out not just Greene, but also Greene’s top enabler, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy:

When Mitch McConnell — who lives by Pres. Reagan’s rule on never speaking ill of another Republican — warns of a “cancer” in the ranks, Qevin McCarthy, Q-CA, would do well to heed the advice of another US President, Pres. Kennedy, on the dangers of embracing extremism. pic.twitter.com/rrPVo1vtsX

That’s right, Pelosi is now making a repeated and emphatic point of accusing Kevin McCarthy of being from the QAnon party instead of the Republican Party. At this point the Republicans are imploding, and all that Pelosi can do is to make sure that the implosion works out well for the Democrats – which is what she’s doing.
