That ship has sailed

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.

Fun fact: tonight was the final episode of Saturday Night Live with Donald Trump still in office. It’s the latest reminder that, yes, we really are moving on from the Trump nightmare.

Trump doesn’t want to let go of the attention just yet, of course, so he’s saying anything he can to try to keep the focus on himself. Late on Saturday night, Trump tweeted “I’ve got plenty of other Bolton stupid stories.” No one has any idea what he’s talking about.

Tweet of the day, from Travis Akers: “I can’t believe I am having to say this. The U.S. military will not assist any president in overturning election results, nor will they enforce unconstitutionally declared martial law or execute unlawful orders to do so. An officer’s oath is to the Constitution, not a person.”
