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 news keeps getting worse for Donald Trump, literally by the hour, as the evening goes on. First came the news that the heads of the FBI, CIA and NSA jointly briefed him regarding personally compromising material that the Russians claimed to have on him. Then came the report of the alleged blackmail material itself, involving Trump and lewd acts and prostitutes. And now comes the accusation that Trump’s attorney secretly met with the Russians in Prague in August over the blackmail material in question.

The United States intelligence community has already confirmed that Vladimir Putin and Russia rigged the election in Donald Trump’s favor through a combination of hacking, strategic leaking, and disinformation. And now it’s becoming more clear why: Trump isn’t merely a patsy who favors Russia. It appears he’s being blackmailed by Russia and thus being forced to do its bidding.

If it turns out Trump’s attorney Cohen really did travel to Prague to meet with Russia regarding the matter, an accusation which ABC News is as of yet unproven then it puts Trump on a likely path to inevitable impeachment. And Cohen is denying it. But this looks more like Watergate by the minute, only much larger.
