We've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever.

Best friends go together like peas in a pod. Best friends are often the glue that holds one together; they can also act as healing balms to soothe, to encourage, and to love unconditionally. Best friends are for enjoying sunny times out and whispering confidences late at night. Best friends never judge you—they love you for who you are, and their adoration is evident in their daily actions and words.

And for a long time, that was exactly how it was between the United States and Canada. Their love for each other was evident—until Donald Trump snuffed out the light of love quicker than one could say, senile traitor. “Over.” A breakup has occurred, unraveling a friendship. Canada has announced that its friendship with us “is over.”

“It’s over.” A century and a half of love, friendship, and goodwill. The fault lies on the doorstep of a Putin-loving felon. Our friendship survived: The Great Depression. The Cold War. 9/11. But now — all goodwill has vanished. Prime Minister Mark Carney made this announcement, and I imagine he made it with sorrow: “We will need to ensure that Canada can succeed in a drastically different world.”

Yes, it IS different. Donald Trump has made it so. Can you blame Canada? Threats of annexation. Crippling tariffs. No wonder Canada is so upset. DONALD TRUMP CAUSED THIS BREAKUP. But there is cause for hope, I would like Canada to know that WE, the American people, still love them.

We think the world of them. And you know what, friends and readers? All breakups are not permanent. Sometimes, reconciliation can and does happen. That is what will happen here eventually. We will once again come together, a festival of lights and apologize—apologize to Canada—for the deranged senility and viral impudence of one man who tried to split us, but did not succeed.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
