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.

Democratic Congresswoman Val Demings rose to prominence during the impeachment process against Donald Trump. She’s now considered a rising star within the party. This evening she reminded us all of why, when she lit up Trump for his latest idiocy:

America is in the middle of a health crisis. I don’t say this lightly, but the President’s reckless handling of this pandemic further demonstrates that he will not let the safety of the American people get in the way of his own selfish motives. The best way to protect yourselves is to listen to the health experts.

Val Demings has been among the names that have been widely mentioned as a potential 2020 running mate for Joe Biden, along with Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, and others.
