“Speaker” Mike Johnson just stepped in 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.

While Donald Trump did his usual clowning around at a rally and said a bunch of idiotic things that should rightly fuel another news cycle, it’s a time as good as any to keep focus on the real issues of this election – and the former guy is hardly the only creepy Republican with power that we have to deal with.

Apart from the “little secret” or whatever nonsense Trump is claiming that he has with House Speaker Mike Johnson, the guy who even a whole lot of MAGA doesn’t like because he occasionally cuts deals with the Biden White House in order to keep the government funded, we’ve got Johnson on video talking about how repealing the Affordable Care Act will be the number one priority if Republicans win on Nov 5.

This is the story from now until the election – and it’s a major reason why Republicans lost as badly as they did back in 2018 and 2020. Republicans are coming for your healthcare and we’ve got them admitting it too – with coverage for pre-existing conditions immediately on the chopping block and the right to be sold healthcare plans that are largely worthless and far more expensive than what you have now.

It’s also an issue where we already have the voters on our side as well – but this should solve any looming doubts about voting – one of many reasons why the GOP cannot be trusted with power at any level. Let’s drive up our numbers and elect Kamala Harris on Nov 5 with a Democratic trifecta.
