There appear to be the first signs of a bit of a kerfuffle going on in Republican circles. It has to do with the House — AND the Senate. Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson said over the weekend that, in his opinion, there is enough push-back on Trump’s “big beautiful bill” to “stop the process,” at…

JD Vance has poked the sleeping bear—that would be the extreme court that has been in a long, deep sleep when it comes to enforcing truth and justice the American way. Vance, apparently wanting to show Donald J. Trump how cool he really is, urged the extremes to “get in line.” Yes, that’s right. JD…

The following story makes me quite sad, and it is one that I wish were not happening. Only it is, and until Donald Trump leaves office, there doesn’t appear to be much to do about it. Tourism in the United States is down—by 61%. That is a significant number of people who have decided not…

Donald Trump’s insane move against Harvard has grossed out the country. You’ve likely heard that Trump, playing his sadistic games, banned Harvard from accepting international students. (Well– he tried to.) But a Judge has already blocked Trump’s latest insane move, which, of course, would never hold up in court. Harvard wasted no time in filing…

PLEASE, please, JD Vance, won’t you please shut up? It is not uncommon for Vice Presidents to single out a few issues of importance to them when they come into office. In Vance’s case, the issue that he refuses to let go of is women. Women and their love lives. So, let’s start at the…

Writers often write about what they know, offering occasional personal antidotes, so please allow me to offer one of mine. Back in my childhood, I had a hobby that I felt was — rather magical, a dream come to life, a living, breathing process of finding beauty in extraordinary places. I love the beach, as…

Now we, the sane, have always known that Donald Trump doesn’t care about ANYONE. It’s not just Democrats he adores hating — it’s the world. He does love his money and he does love power and he simply adores his chicken nuggets. But as far as any human? Not a chance. So it perhaps will…

Have you noticed that MAGA can’t win an argument? It doesn’t matter what the argument is about. MAGA never has any pushback beyond name-calling and whataboutism. Also, sometimes MAGA says foolish things. The king of MAGA, the leader of this group of sneering Carnevale characters who remain locked in their own house of ugly and…

“Love.” Such a sweet word with such ramifications. And “Love” is, among other things, prominently featured in many Subaru commercials. But there may soon be OTHER words linked to buying a Subaru. “Subaru to announce price hikes.” This is because of Donald Trump’s tariffs. And so it begins. This is just another chapter in America’s…

Several of Donald Trump’s more creepy sycophants, are suggesting that Trump ignore any extreme court rulings that do not favor him. MAGA is also chiming in, suggesting the same. For example, Matt Walsh suggested that the extremes do not have the power to tell Trump to do ANYTHING, that they are only weighing in with…

Under the cover of night was when it happened. Under the cover of darkness was when they did it. Under dark skies and a mad moon on Sunday night, the GOP House Caucus solemnly reviewed its troops. They had enough troops, enough to advance a bill that would slash funding for the most needy of…

The old orange beached whale fancies himself a rocker now. Donald Trump appears to have little to do except bitch, moan and mutter. The fact that the country’s falling apart around him doesn’t seem to matter to the freaky felon. People looking at the idiot’s truth social posts over the weekend, perhaps lost their appetites…

You may have heard about the fantastic new idea of the Trump administration to turn the pain of millions into their own reality show. I mean, we shouldn’t be surprised, should we? The Trumpers have shown that no low is too low for them to go to. So, Homeland Security is vetting a new reality…

Disapprove. Disapprove. Minus 32. Minus 17. Minus 15. Minus 16. These shiny new numbers represent the American people’s feelings on one Felon J. Trump, as seen in a brand new poll from Verasight. This new poll contains not even a smidgeon of good news for him. Let’s crunch the numbers, shall we? In this poll,…

Donald Trump is failing. Donald Trump has failed- over and over and over and over again. I can prove it. Since Mr. Trump took office, virtually everything that he wants to do, every cruel, inhumane act of evil, cowardice, and lawlessness, has been wiped away by stitching. A stitching of threads — that spell out…

The best defense against the unknown is to make it known, and that is exactly what I plan to do in this article. The GOP is in trouble. People are starting not only to dislike them but to hate them. One of the reasons for this hate is that the GOP wants to sink the…

Being the geography nerd that I am, I enjoy studying state characteristics. For example, did you know that the people of Maine are known to have the smoothest complexions in the country? Perhaps it’s all that sea air. Maine also has the rockiest coastline, and is considered the most tranquil state. Indeed, when I visit…

When Trump won in the 2024 election, he gained support from certain voting groups such as younger men, Latinos, and non-white voters with no college degree. That seems centuries ago, even though it’s only been, in reality, a few months. Still, that couple of months is long enough for Trump’s support among ALL of these…

1984 was a scorching, deeply disturbing piece of literature that is often required reading in schools, much to Republicans’ chagrin. In recent years, Republicans have begun taking on the characteristics of Big Brother to an unheard-of degree. I suppose these members of the GOP, if they ever bothered to read the book at all, came…

People in rural areas favor the GOP. That’s a fact, just like it’s a fact that people in densely populated urban areas favor the Democratic party. When Donald Trump won the 2024 election, we at Palmer Report said that Trump voters would feel his wrath the strongest. And so they have and they will. They…

This is not good – not good at all. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said on Thursday that it is discontinuing its database of ” billion-dollar weather and climate disasters.” This is likely because of the staff reductions. We can blame Elon Musk and DOGE for this. This database has been most useful because…

Poor MAGA — poor, poor little MAGA. For about five blissful seconds — five seconds — MAGA was starry-eyed over the new Pope. MAGA excitedly chattered that this was a win for Donald John Trump! An American Pope! Surely this was a nod of approval for Trump, right? Right? Not quite. It seems that MAGA’s…
