Rachel Maddow just nailed it

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 Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared on the Rachel Maddow show tonight, he confirmed that the Trump regime had “blocked” him from going on the show for months, because the Trump regime didn’t like Maddow’s show.

In response to this, Rachel Maddow urged the Biden administration to give Dr. Fauci clearance to go on any cable news show he wants – including Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson, whom she mentioned by name. This gave me pause for a minute. After all, why should dishonest hosts like Hannity and Carlson be given the opportunity to hit Fauci with loaded or dishonest questions?

But after thinking it through for a minute, Maddow is absolutely correct. If Dr. Fauci can spread some truth to the disinformed, anti-science, anti-vaxxer viewers on Fox News, he might get through to some of them and save lives. And if he can help convince some right wing audience members to get vaccinated, it’ll help keep us all safer.
