Dear Palmer Report readers,
We all understand what a dark era we're heading into. Journalists will be prosecuted. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. Advertising networks can't be counted on. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight, because someone has to.
In that regard we're looking to start funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens or how dark things get. We've launched a reader supported fund, and we've already raised $785 and counting. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can contribute here. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Bill Palmer

Donald Trump hasn’t even been sworn in yet, and he’s already plotting his first vacation. In fact he’ll be going on that vacation before he even does a lick of work. He’s announced that immediately after the inauguration, which is a Friday, he’ll be taking the rest of the day off. Then he’ll also be taking the entire weekend off for good measure.
“One of the first orders I’m gonna sign — day one — which I will consider to be Monday as opposed to Friday or Saturday,” Donald Trump has informed British newspaper The Times. “I mean my day one is gonna be Monday because I don’t want to be signing and get it mixed up with lots of celebration.” That’s right, Trump is admitting, to the foreign press no less, that he’s afraid to sign any legislation on his first (or second or third) day in office because he’s afraid he might get it “mixed up.”
What is he afraid of, that he’s going to accidentally sign the wrong executive order and unwittingly get us all nuked? Because for the record, that’s what most of us are currently afraid of. It turns out Trump wasn’t kidding about being a part timer. And they called Barack Obama the Vacation President?
