Never Nikki

Neocon Nikki Halley can't beat a ghost at the election polls. Nikki took 2nd place behind NONE OF THE ABOVE.


Nikki Haley is trounced by the ‘none of these candidates’ option in Nevada’s Republican primary

Nikki Haley was swamped in Nevada’s symbolic Republican presidential primary as GOP voters resoundingly picked the “none of these candidates” option on the ballot in a repudiation of the former U.N. ambassador who is the last remaining major rival to front-runner Donald Trump.


Why AP called the Nevada GOP primary for ‘None of these candidates’

The Associated Press declared “None of these candidates” the winner at 12:01 a.m. based on initial vote results that showed it with a significant lead over Haley in seven counties across the state, including in the two most populous counties. At the time the race was called, “None of these candidates” led with about 60% of the vote. Haley trailed with 33%.

Natural Disasters now have human responsibility

The United Nations is expanding it's scope by opining that humans are now responsible for natural disasters. Probably worthwhile to spend money preparing for natural disaster response, rather than funding the fat bureaucracy of the United Nations. 


Why are disasters not natural?

The truth is, there is no such thing as a natural disaster.  
... 
A natural hazard, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or flood, only becomes a disaster when it impacts a community that is not adequately protected, and whose population is vulnerable as a result of poverty, exclusion or socially-disadvantage.



United Nations has largest donor being the taxpayers of USA. Council on Foreign Relations says USA owes more money to United Nations and being the number one donor is not enough!

In 2023, the United Nations assessed the United States’ share of the regular budget at 22 percent and its share of the peacekeeping budget at 27 percent; however, the U.S. Congress caps contributions to the peacekeeping budget at 25 percent, leaving the United States in arrears

Financial Wordsmiths At New York Times

New York Times prints word drivel possibly wrote by an intern with named Jeanna Smialek.


US Inflation Kept Slowing At End of '23

Consumer price data released Thursday showed Federal Reserve officials, the White House and American households that inflation continued to slow at the end of 2023, capping a year in which the price increases bedeviling families and policymakers cooled in earnest.

Prices overall climbed more quickly in December than November on a yearly basis: 3.4 percent versus 3.1 percent previously ...


Inflation "continued to slow" and also "climbed more quickly". New York Times and Ms. Smialek are shameless mouthpieces for big-government and socialism. While this newspaper prints confusing pablum, the politicians know that lower gas prices and higher stock index prices make consumers feel good. Let's see if stock market number go up with gas price number go down can be maintained into the elections theis Fall.

Neocons Run Congress

Democrats and Republican neocon Marco Rubio have teamed up to attempt to prevent the USA's commander in chief from withdrawing from the European military alliance. In past years people thought "neocon" meant Republican, and now we know the neocons run both of the big parties in Washington D.C.


...
Under the measure, advocated by Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), the president would be prohibited from withdrawing from NATO without the approval of two-thirds of the Senate or separate legislation passed by Congress.
Kaine and Rubio had tried to advance similar measures since 2021. Passage of the defense policy bill this week marked the first time the House had embraced the tactic.
The Republican-led House Armed Services Committee did not respond to questions about why the chamber accepted the provision.
