Vladimir Putin is running out of allies by the minute

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.

The world is watching. The world is watching the miscalculation of Russian President Vladimir Putin. And a miscalculation it is. Putin, who was once known for his slick decision-making, is managing to alienate almost everybody on the world stage in just a few days.

Poland has now announced it will not play its world cup qualifier against Russia. Putin asked Kazakhstan for additional troops. Kazakhstan’s answer was a big and resounding NO.

This is important because Russia and Kazakhstan are allies. And yet Kazakhstan has repudiated Russia’s blood-lust. Over 100 Russian Sommeliers have signed a letter to Putin. In this letter, they demand an end to the fighting in Ukraine.

Many of his own people have turned against him. They have taken to city streets to protest. America, along with Canada, is dumping Russian vodka. Many are chucking this vodka down sink drains, sewers, and into city streets to show their contempt of Russia.

It’s becoming deeply apparent that Putin is isolated. His foes have always known of his insanity. But now, his people and even his allies are figuring it out. Most are repulsed. They want absolutely no part of his insane schemes, and they’re letting him know through their actions and through their words: NO. MORE. WAR.

As it stands now, Russia is quickly becoming friendless. And Putin, who always wanted to be seen as intelligent and calculating, is being seen as weak and evil — which he is.

Yet there are a few who still choose to stand with Russia. There aren’t many, but there are some. The biggest Putin allies? That would appear to be Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Donald Trump, and Fox itself.
