  • Donald Trump just decided he cares more about keeping Roger Stone quiet than winning

    https://www.palmerreport.com/analysi...lection/30448/



    It will be nice to never have to listen to another Republican claim to support law and order, though. Thanks Trump!

    As the late Paul Harvey used to say, "And now, the rest of the story..."


    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

      Or honesty in a president, or fiscal responsibility, or national security, or the military, or public health / safety - or any number of things they used to lie about supporting in the past.

      ps. to be fair, Republicans don't exist any more, so it's unfair holding members of the so-called GOP to Republican standards.

        I too saw that not even conservative outhouse could find a good way to spin this.

          Earlier this evening, Roger Stone strongly hinted to NBC News that he had criminal dirt on Donald Trump, and that he wanted his prison sentence commuted in exchange for keeping quiet about it.
          So we now just post threads from a blog site I've never even heard of before about any wild assertion they want to make with nothing at all to back it up? It would have been nice for the author of that article to provide some quote... a video clip... maybe a transcript excerpt... something? I mean if you're going to troll, at least make it somewhat legit.

            Aw, come on, what's the fun in that?
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              Palmer Report is hardly a no name site. But to your question here's the Stone quote in question.

                  ...Palmer previously ran a site called Daily News Bin, described by Snopes editor Brooke Binkowski as "basically a pro-Hillary Clinton 'news site....

                  If the leftist SNOPES says that....

                  Oh, and THIS part.... "The site has been criticized for building a large following based on "wildly speculative theories about Donald Trump.

                  No wonder you like it!

                    You didn't link your source so I could investigate those claims. I read nearly every article they publish and from my memory they have been close to 100% correct (I can't think of anything substantive they got wrong but it's possible I'm mistaken). I only started reading Palmer Report a year ago so I can't speak to things from before that time.

                    I am very particular in which sources I put trust into and do my best to always follow up on significant claims that they make. Doubly so if they routinely report things which confirm my existing biases. So please, point me to any stories over the past 12 months which they significantly botched so I can adjust my trust in them accordingly.

                    Feel free to read Palmer's significant number of articles about the Democratic primary and how things would turn around for Biden after SC. Palmer put an awful lot on the line there when everyone else was already digging Biden's grave.

                      You could always ask! Here's another link showing the reliability and bias....



                      I could tell by the 'headline' this was a pinko commie liberal leftist trash site. Good job!

                        Palmer is the guy who went viral a couple weeks ago for saying that conservatives should be put into re-education camps before rejoining society.
                        "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                          It's Roger Stones own words. He could have told the truth about Trump, it would have eased his situation considerably, but he didn't.

                            Ain't it funny how the pinko commies think themselves to be American patriots?

                              This is going to sound bogus but I really have to wonder about the methodology that site uses. Hear me out please.

                              I don't have a problem with putting PR as far left. *I've* said that multiple times. My main questions about their reliability scoring (though putting Breitbart as less conservative than FNC (broadcast) is a head scratcher).

                              Here you can see their "overall" scoring for all the rated media sources. They have Huffington Post as "Most Reliable for News" and more reliable than CNN (broadcast), MSNBC, and Fox? OAN more reliable than Fox?

                              I'm actually curious about this site so I'm going to read the full white paper about their methodology. If you want to pick out one or two articles from that link which you think show PR's unreliability I'd be happy to do a deeper dive into them (though those articles all predate when I started to read PR ~end of June 2019).
