Palmer Report is an American liberal political blog, based in Los Angeles, California. It is written by Bill Palmer, who describes himself on his website as a political journalist who covered the 2016 election cycle from start to finish, along with more than fifty additional writers. Palmer previously ran a site called Daily News Bin, described by Snopes editor Brooke Binkowski as "basically a pro-Hillary Clinton 'news site.'" The site has built a following based on speculative theories about Donald Trump going to prison.

Reception

Palmer Report has been quoted by both the Washington Post and USA today as a political blogger and analyst. Unlike other political analysts he often uses logic to backup his position, for example he expected Biden to win the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination even after losing Iowa and New Hampshire as the third primary, South Carolina, matched the demographics of the overall Democratic primary electorate more closely. Palmer Report has also been speculating since at least August 2018 that Trump will go to prison which has since been backed up by other sources.


In 2017 Zack Beauchamp of Vox Media said Palmer Report was, "mirror image of Breitbart and InfoWars on the right" due to Palmer’s comments linking Mitch McConnell and Russia however in 2019 other sources made those same connections.

Criticism

The Atlantic's McKay Coppins called the Palmer Report "the publication of record for anti-Trump conspiracy nuts who don’t care about the credibility of the record." The New Republic's Colin Dickey claims that Palmer "routinely blasts out stories that sound serious but are actually based on a single, unverified source." On another episode of purportedly overzealous editorialization, he reported Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts had ordered Trump appointee Neil Gorsuch to recuse himself from all Trump-related Russia hearings, with his only sourcing coming from a "single tweet from an anonymous Twitter account under the name 'Puesto Loco.'"
