Donald Trump’s gag order has now been reinstated in his New York civil fraud trial. That’s no surprise. When the appeals court temporarily stayed the gag order to hear Trump’s appeal, it didn’t mean he’d won. This stuff is just procedure. Trump continues to lose on all fronts.
I think there’s still too much of a focus (from the media and on social media) on Trump’s gag orders. The lack of a gag order isn’t going to make Trump magically able to get away with it all. And the presence of a gag order, while welcome, isn’t going to take Trump down unless he’s stupid enough to keep escalating his rhetoric to the point that his bail is revoked.
During a lengthy and complex process such as a criminal trial, there’s a tendency by outside observers to latch onto one aspect (in this instance a gag order) simply because it keeps finding its way into headlines, and treat it as if it’s the whole story, when in fact it’s a mere sideshow. Trump’s trials and convictions, not his gag orders, continue to be the story.
It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help.
For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our
GoFundMe Page or our
PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
