Haley fares best against Biden as Republican
contenders hold national leads
Posted By: Dreadnought, 1/14/2024 11:10:22 AM
While Republican primary voters think Donald Trump is their best shot in November, it's Nikki Haley who right now holds a bigger lead over Joe Biden than either Trump or Ron DeSantis in potential head-to-head match-ups. In fact, as the GOP presidential nomination kicks off, Trump, Haley and DeSantis all have at least a slight national edge on President Biden right now, were they to emerge as his challenger. (Haley and DeSantis have tougher roads to get that chance, of course, since they trail Trump substantially in the race for the nomination.) What's behind Haley's lead? Here's why Haley has such a lead over Biden:

Donald Trump earned a historic victory in the Iowa Caucuses Monday night, trouncing his competition so severely that the Associated Press called the race only 31 minutes after the caucus officially began.
“I really think this is time now for everybody — our country — to come together,” Trump said in a gracious victory speech. “We want to come together.
“Whether it’s Republican or Democrat or liberal or conservative, it would be so nice if we could come together and straighten out the world and straighten out the problems and straighten out all of the death and destruction that we’re witnessing.”
With the results of some precincts still outstanding,
Iran is in a proxy war with the United States, and inching ever closer to directly attacking the US.
The proxy war is not new, but it has escalated dramatically since the October 7th Hamas massacre in Israel. There have been over 100 attacks on Americans and American assets, and as John wrote earlier, the Houthis attacked and hit a US ship in the Red Sea, and Iran fired missiles into Iraq either at or near the US Consulate there.
Those missiles were fired from Iranian soil, and Iran took responsibility. Both the attack on an American ship in the Red Sea and the missiles fired from Iran towards the US Consulate
DES MOINES, Iowa — Former President Trump struck conciliatory notes in his Iowa-caucuses victory speech Monday night, praising his vanquished GOP opponents and promised to unite the country and turn it around.
Following his decisive win in the Iowa caucus, Mr. Trump put aside his criticisms of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who late Monday were both trailing Mr. Trump by around 30 points in the Hawkeye State.
“They said you’ll never get over 50,” Mr. Trump told the crowd, promoting a historic win that was projected just a half an hour after the caucus opened. With 95% of the votes counted, Mr. Trump had 51%
Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is dropping out of the 2024 race after disappointing results in the Iowa caucuses.
DailyMail.com confirmed the entrepreneur's exit from the race. The 38-year-old came in a distant fourth in the caucuses, the first 2024 contest in the nation, behind former President Donald Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former U.N. Amb. Nikki Haley. 'I think it is true that we did not achieve the surprise that we wanted to deliver tonight,' he told supporters in Des Moines. 'As of this moment we are going to suspend this presidential campaign ... there is no path for me to be the next president absent
DES MOINES, Iowa - Donald Trump muscled past his rivals to capture the first 2024 Republican presidential contest in Iowa on Monday, according to Edison Research projections, once more asserting his dominance over the party as he seeks a third consecutive nomination.
With Trump's victory seemingly a foregone conclusion before Monday given his sizable lead in opinion polls, the intrigue centered on the race for second place between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The two candidates have waged an increasingly bitter battle to emerge as the chief alternative to Trump.
It’s all a con, continued:
Bernie Madoff, the Guinness Book of Records Ponzi operator, had a rule that, for subscribers to the too-good-to-be-true dictum, served as a red flag: The rule: You’re not allowed to ask questions. Just give him as much cash as you can gather, then sit back and reap the totally unqualified and beyond-belief interest on your investment as per an earnings report provided by the accounting firm of Null & Void.

The Iran-backed Houthis struck a cargo ship in the Gulf of Aden on Monday, U.S. Central Command announced, in what appears to be the terror group’s first successful attack on a U.S.-owned or operated vessel since it began targeting ships in the Red Sea in mid November.
Houthi militants based in Yemen launched an anti-ship ballistic missile at Eagle Bulk Shipping’s Gibraltar Eagle around 4 p.m. local time Monday, CENTCOM said in a statement. No injuries or significant damage were reported.
Eagle Bulk also confirmed that the “unidentified projectile” hit the Gibraltar Eagle about 100 miles offshore southeast of Aden, Yemen.
A 70-year-old woman has been killed and 17 other people injured in what police say was a terrorist attack in Israel.
Two Palestinians from the occupied West Bank have been arrested over the incident in Raanana, about 20km (12.5 miles) north of Tel Aviv.
The suspects allegedly switched between three stolen vehicles and ran over pedestrians in different places.
The attack came as the war between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas in Gaza passed the 100-day mark. Israeli media reports say the woman who died was stabbed by one of the suspects before he and an accomplice took her car and used it to ram into people.
Donald Trump would be a strong candidate in the 2024 election because he got the big issues right in 2016, says a startling article by a New York Times‘ foremost Never Trumper, Bret Stephens.
The January 11 article was posted under the headline: “The case for Trump … by someone who wants him to lose.”
Stephens wrote that “you can’t defeat an opponent if you refuse to understand what makes him formidable [and] too many people, especially progressives, fail to think deeply about the enduring sources of his appeal.”
On immigration, Stephens wrote:
Arguably the single most important geopolitical fact of the century is the mass migration of people from south to north and
Former NCAA swimmer and activist Riley Gaines was reportedly denied entry at the NCAA annual convention despite having previously been nominated Woman of the Year.
Speaking with Outkick, Riley Gaines said that people in charge of entry would not let her into the convention even after she showed the proper credentials.
“I said, ‘Hold on, what do you mean I’m not allowed in there?’” Riley told the outlet. “I pulled up the email and showed them everything was in place to where I most certainly was allowed in there. And they said, ‘No, we know you have your credentials. But that’s not what we’re talking about. You’re just not allowed in there.’”
Ukraine reportedly shot down two of Russia’s top-tier aircraft over the Azov Sea. One of the planes, a Beriev A-50 is similar to an American AWACS, with a large radar dish mounted above the fuselage of the plane. The price tag of this plane is reportedly over $300 million dollars and Russia may have as few as 9 or 10 of these planes in service.
Ukrainian media reported an A-50 early warning and control aircraft was shot down on Sunday evening shortly after take-off over the Sea of Azov in the Kyrylivka area of Zaporizhzhia in southern Ukraine…
It’s reported cost per aircraft is a massive $330m.
These AEW&C aircraft are vital
Warning: Disturbing images and graphic language in this article.
My colleague Brandon Morse wrote an article Friday titled, "Evil Is Real and It Needs to Be Dealt With." In my mind, the terror group/political operation Hamas should be considered one of the worst examples of evil in our world, and they proved it once again by releasing a propaganda video Sunday showing three hostages they took during their Oct. 7 terror attacks. One of the hostages is Noa Argamani, who was brutally hauled away on a motorcycle from the Supernova music festival in heartbreaking footage seen around the world. "Don't kill me!" she was heard

The state of Massachusetts is asking private homeowners to take in illegal aliens as the state runs out of room to house the thousands of border crossers who are still flooding into the Bay State.
Massachusetts is the only state that has a state-wide “right to housing” rule for homeless families. And with that rule in mind, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) has repeatedly asked legal residents to open up their homes to illegal immigrants for whom officials are having a hard time finding beds.Healey declared a “state of emergency” over the influx of illegal aliens in August, saying in her declaration, “There are currently nearly 5,600 families

The Iowa caucuses are upon us, and it appears former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has improved her position, according to the most recent poll.
But while the survey reveals favorable results for the candidate, what it says about her supporters in Iowa is also noteworthy. The poll revealed that most of her supporters would vote for President Joe Biden if former President Donald Trump became the Republican nominee. While the overwhelming percentage of Republican voters in Iowa would support Trump if he gets the GOP nod, Haley’s supporters have a different plan.

On the eve of the Iowa caucuses, Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida, a former ally of Donald J. Trump, delivered a blistering critique of the former President, implying that Trump prioritizes personal loyalty over the nation’s welfare.
In 2017, Donald Trump, who was then serving as President, threw his support behind Ron DeSantis in the race for Florida’s governorship. This endorsement from Trump was a significant boost for DeSantis, a tea-party conservative, enabling him to surpass the right-wing GOP candidate Adam Putnam, who was serving as Florida’s agriculture commissioner at the time, Politico reported.

An illegal alien, accused of causing St. Johns County, Florida, Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Michael Kunovich’s death, says his “constitutional rights” have been violated and he is the victim of police brutality as well as racial profiling.
As Breitbart News reported, 19-year-old illegal alien Virgilio Aguilar-Mendez of Guatemala was arrested in May 2023 and has been charged with resisting an officer with violence and manslaughter in connection with Kunovich’s death.
Aguilar-Mendez’s defense attorney, Phillip Arroyo, told First Coast News that has threatened to file a federal lawsuit if St. Johns County prosecutors do not drop their charges against his client.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on Sunday slammed Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene as being "filled with hate," after the Georgia Republican congresswoman called for the Georgia state attorney general to investigate allegations that Willis had an improper relationship with the special prosecutor hired to go after former President Donald Trump.
"Dear God, I don't want to be like those who attack me. I never want to be a Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has never met me but has allowed her spirit to be filled with hate," Willis told the congregation of Atlanta's Big Bethel AME church on Sunday.
President Joe Biden raised more than $97 million in the final three months of last year for his re-election campaign as he prepares to make his case to voters for a second term.
The amount was more money than the $68 million that former President Barack Obama raised during the same period of his reelection but it was dwarfed by the $154 million that former President Donald Trump raised for his.
Biden's war chest was boosted by a series of star-studded fundraising events, including one in Boston that featured singer-songwriter James Taylor, and three days in California for gatherings with Steven Spielberg, Barbra Streisand, Shonda Rhimes, Rob Reiner, and David Geffen.

A dangerous Arctic blast continued sweeping across the US Monday, bringing below-freezing temperatures to more than three-quarters of the country and leaving at least four people dead – including a woman in Oregon who was killed when a tree toppled onto her RV. The bone-chilling cold was expected to set record-low temperatures Monday and Tuesday from Oregon to Mississippi — about 79% of the country — and threaten an NFL playoff game and the Iowa caucuses. Lashing winds and a slushy-like mix of snow and ice brought down some 100 trees over the weekend in a community just south of Portland, Oregon
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the greatest champions of American democracy...Dr. King was assassinated in 1968 while supporting a strike by sanitation workers in Memphis because he represented a fundamental threat to the white racial order and American apartheid. Unfortunately, while pushed back by the civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s, these same forces were never defeated in American society. Instead, they adapted and evolved to maintain their power and influence.
With the Age of Trump, ascendant neofascism, and reinvigorated white supremacy the same social and political forces that martyred Dr. King are now reversing the gains of the civil rights movement.
