Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 3/6/2024 9:53:07 AM

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley is to end her 2024 bid, two sources have confirmed to The Epoch Times. Ms. Haley will make the announcement in a speech around 10 a.m. this morning in Charleston, South Carolina. Ms. Haley’s announcement will come a day after Super Tuesday—the day consisting of the most primaries in the presidential election cycle—in which former President Donald Trump swept all but one of the races. Ms. Haley currently has 89 delegates and President Trump has 995.

Good riddance. You will have to tune into CNN if you ever want to see her again.

The article exposes the problem with Haley. She claims to have principles but she is too eager to bargain them away to find "compromise". Sometimes that is possible and some issues are not controversial, but against the modern dem party, such compromise on important things simply turns the dial down from a "horrible" solution to a "really bad solution". Further, dems know this. They have pushed their positions to the extreme so that any compromise is still toxic. Then they try to sell us on the idea that compromise or bipartisanship is the Holt Grail of legislative action. Serving someone a bowl of sewage to eat is not improved by making it half a bowl of sewage and half corn flakes, i.e. the compromise solution. Haley's problem is the same as other RINOs. They are trying to talk the voters into accepting bad solutions rather than battling the dems to win the RIGHT solution. The reality is, once you have accepted a bad solution, you will NEVER get dems to dial it back. It will only get worse. Further, you lose the moral high ground. If you accept a compromise solution that violates moral principles, those principles are DEAD to your use. It's good that Haley is bowing out. Unfortunately, we have seen a lot of Haley's core beliefs as she was running and what we have seen doesn't look good as part of a strong Republican party going forward.

Suspend her campaign but not support the GOP nominee? Shame on her and shame on those who thought this woman represented GOP values.

Seems to me Haley has pretty much burned her Republican bridges so her best shot is to become a useful-idiot commentator on CNN or MSNBC. Maybe I'm wrong.

One of the stranger aspects of the long-running American affirmative action debate is that both supporters and critics of racial quotas seldom admit in public how scarce blacks would be in cognitively elite institutions without the now traditional massive thumb on the scale in their favor. Liberal racial preference advocates tend to argue as if black representation in prestige positions in percentages close to their share of the population (12 percent or 14 percent, depending on whether or not you count individuals who identify as black and another race) merely requires tie-breakers favoring African-Americans among extremely equal applicants

Those who understand the long history of Mitch McConnell as a Machiavellian-minded Senate Leader well understand how this is playing out. John Thunes prior endorsement of Donald Trump sets the stage. Nikki Haley withdrawing from opposition to Donald Trump, on behalf of the financial and professional political class who underwrote her effort, was a transparent predicate. Now comes the Machiavellian leverage move by Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, who falsely positions his support without conditions as a lull toward a duplicitous intent.

Nikki Haley now has the option to run as presidential replacement for Volodymyr Zelensky. Thus, the final chapter in the billionaire Sea Island donor effort to eliminate Donald Trump comes to an end. As traditional amid the character trait of the professional liars and manipulators, Haley refused to endorse Trump and indicated she never intended to adhere to the endorsement pledge of the republican party. Thus, the way of the DeceptiCon RAT’s continues. The exit theme she read from the provided script of her departure remarks was the same as her intro theme.

Recently approved vaccines for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) for older adults may be linked to a rare nervous system disorder that causes the body’s immune system to attack its own nerves. In a Feb. 29 meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, health officials presented data that appears to show a slightly elevated rate of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) among people who received RSV vaccines by Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). A data mining alert on Jan. 19 for disproportional reporting was detected by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Pfizer’s Abrysvo RSV vaccine and GBS but has not been reported to date for GSK’s RSV vaccine Arexvy,

David French — Harvard-trained lawyer, former Army JAG officer, writer and New York Times columnist — is a principled man, just ask him. He has many principles, just ask him. Principally, he sticks to his principles until a pretty new principle comes along. His longest lasting principle is his devotion and dedication to destroying Donald Trump, a position French has held a record eight years for him. When he said Never Trump, he meant it. He’s a man of his word — until a new word pops up.

During his 2021 campaign, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin committed to gutting neo-Marxist ideologies from state institutions. So, why won’t he commit to vetoing a bill that would require medical practitioners in the state to undergo “unconscious bias” training to keep their medical licenses? Passed by the Democrat-controlled General Assembly last month, Senate Bill 35 aims to force the Virginia Board of Medicine to require health practitioners to complete “unconscious bias” and “cultural competency” training to renew their medical licenses. The bill would also require the board to select certain organizations “that identify and facilitate an evidence-based curriculum to comply with this legislation.”

There is a new twist in the Fani Willis-Nathan Wade legal saga after a co-chief deputy district attorney for Cobb County claimed key witness Terrence Bradley lied about his knowledge of Willis and Wade's relationship. While there has been no ruling on Willis' disqualification, legal scholar Jonathan Turley questioned on "America's Newsroom" Tuesday why the pair has not "stepped aside" as their legal quagmire worsens "by the day." JONATHAN TURLEY: It was painful to watch. It had that look of a hostage tape, where he was just saying, 'I know nothing, I heard nothing. If I said anything, I didn't mean it.'

Each side in today’s often-angry political debate over the upcoming presidential election seems convinced that its candidate has a clear advantage. But, as of now, neither President Joe Biden nor former President Donald Trump has an obvious edge in the popular vote as we enter the final eight months of the 2024 election season, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. Despite being widely criticized for his lackluster campaign and showing continuing signs of age-related mental impairment, Biden holds a slender 43% to 42% lead over Trump.

Haley voters are up for grabs. Who wants them more - Donald Trump or Joe Biden? That's the question today. Nikki Haley suspended her campaign today. "I have no regrets," she said as she delivered a short speech to supporters. She did not endorse Donald Trump. I didn't anticipate that she would do that today. That may change down the road, we'll have to wait and see. She did offer her congratulations to Trump and wished him well. Haley liked to say that her campaign was not all about her, that it was not personal. She said she was running for the sake of America.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) and Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) are fighting back against crime in the New York City subway system by reinstating bag checks. Hochul announced Wednesday she is deploying 1,000 additional law enforcement officers to the subway, including 750 New York National Guard members and 250 members of law enforcement. Adams ordered an additional 1,000 law enforcement officials to patrol the subway in February after the city saw a 45% increase in crime in January compared to January of last year. “We know people feel unsafe,” Adams said. “We are reinstituting bag checks. There are several things we are reinstituting in the system.”

Here are the details, from an exclusive report at Daily Mail: Nearly half of all young voters are not willing to pay more than $10 a month to fight climate change, despite Joe Biden claiming it’s an ‘existential threat’ and making it the center of his re-election campaign.

If you jump in the time machine with me, we'll go back to the days of protests over mask mandates, business closures, social distancing, and lockdowns. In those days, many people were incensed that the government had disrupted so many lives with a list of restrictions and warnings that many credited with helping foment the social unrest in the months and years that followed. COVID-19 protests are making a comeback. But this time, the shoe is on the other foot. Or, more appropriately, the mask is on the other face. This time around, protestors are gathering later this month to express their ire

Joe Biden's administration has admitted transporting migrants on secret flights into the U.S. and lawyers for its immigration agencies claim revealing the locations could create national security 'vulnerabilities'. Customs and Border Protection has refused to disclose information about a program last year secretly arranging flights for thousands of undocumented immigrants from foreign airports directly to U.S. cities. It means that while record numbers of migrants were flowing over the southern border last year, the Biden White House was also directly transporting them into the country. Use of a cell phone app has allowed for the near undetected arrival by air of 320,000 aliens with no legal rights

Olena Zelenska, Ukraine's first lady, turned down an invitation from the White House to attend Thursday's State of the Union address, dashing President Joe Biden's dreams of seating her next to Alexi Navalvny's widow in a show of force against Russia. The White House intended to place Zelenska and Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of murdered Russian opposition leader, in Jill Biden's box on the night of the president's prime time address. The plan was to use the women as powerful image against Russian President Vladimir Putin, coming at a time when Biden wants Congress to approve more aid for the Ukraine.

As ATF head, Dettelbach, who was confirmed in 2022 with the help of Senate Democrats and two Republicans, is expected to understand to some degree the items his agency regulates and enforces. Unfortunately for Americans who have endured a slew of attacks on their Second Amendment rights at the hands of the Biden administration, Dettelbach is publicly ignorant about the guns and gun parts his agency wants to ban. During his appearance on CBS’s “Face The Nation” over the weekend, Dettelbach outlined for CBS News’s Margaret Brennan the ATF’s
