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.

During today’s eclipse, Ivanka Trump was briefly seen on a White House balcony alongside her father Donald Trump. But as it turns out, that’s not the only place she decided to view the eclipse from today. Ivanka also visited the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum and, according to an eyewitness, she cut in line in front tourists in order to get the best view.

Political writer Jennifer Bendery shared the following this afternoon: “A friend at Natl Air and Space Museum says Ivanka Trump showed up, cut in front of 100s of ppl in line, got private view of eclipse there” (link). After someone on Twitter insisted that Ivanka could not have been at the museum because she was seen at the White House, Bendery posted a photo which proved Ivanka had also been at the museum (link). Further, Ivanka tweeted a photo of herself viewing the eclipse at the museum (link). According to Google Maps, the White House and the Air and Space Museum are less than two miles apart.

Once the mystery was solved of how Ivanka Trump could have visited two different nearby places within the roughly three hour span of the eclipse cycle, the real focus became clear: like her father, Ivanka appears to believe that she’s immune from having to earn anything in life. In fact this incident directly evokes memories of when Donald Trump physically pushed the Prime Minister of Montenegro out of the way so he could be up front during a group photo of world leaders.

Meanwhile Ivanka Trump’s father Donald Trump spent the eclipse looking directly into the sun without protection three times in a row, even as onlookers yelled at him not to do so (link). If Ivanka hadn’t been busy cutting in line at the Smithsonian, perhaps she could have helped her father avoid ruining his eyes.
