#2 It’s been a while, Raj. I did a Name Link search in it — now added at the bottom of the post — and one of the articles that popped up said this:

UN Palmer Report on the 2010 Mavi Marmara incident, during which 9 Turkish 'activists' who tried to lynch Israeli commandoes who boarded the vessel in accordance with international maritime law, were killed.

#3 Palmer Report is so unhinged and godawfully stupid that even lefties call it out:

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".

Journalist Glenn Greenwald of The Intercept wrote that the Palmer Report is "a classic Fake News site created by [...] a crazed fanatical follower of Hillary Clinton who got caught purposely disseminating fake news during the election". In 2017, George Zornick, writing for The Nation, described the Palmer Report as "churn[ing] out Russia-related fake news by the pixel load".

The Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank identified the Palmer Report as "part of a larger phenomenon that has already taken root online, where in some quarters full-blown cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome have already broken out." Various journalists have publicly discouraged individuals from sharing Palmer Report articles.

Political scientist Alan Wolfe wrote in 2019 that Trump's connection with Russia "has created a wide-open field for leftist conspiracy theorists to make one wild claim after another; nearly all of them...can be conveniently found on a website called the Palmer Report."

In a 2019 report from the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights, the Palmer Report was described as a "left-leaning dubious-content site" where many of the articles "range from the unsubstantiated...to the sophomoric."[

#4 So they say the quiet part out loud, embarrassing the rest of the left who know better than to do that. Important point.

#5 Thank you Patriot. I didn’t realize there were two Palmer Reports. Please disregard my earlier comment as unhelpful.
