Nikki Haley

In an interview with the "Today Show" Nikki Haley, Donald Trump's former ambassador to the United Nations, asserted her principles and said she would never help or support any Republican candidates who denied the 2020 election results. Election deniers have taken over the Republican Party after primary elections where supporters of the former president's dominated the polls with election denial as the litmus test.

Haley, like many of the few Republicans, left willing to speak out against the attempt to overthrow the government, but she quickly failed to keep the promise, the Washington Post reported Wednesday.

Right-wing political consultant Ralph Reed’s Faith & Freedom Coalition, which is widely credited for keeping white evangelical support for Trump after the leak of his infamous "Access Hollywood" video, will spend $42 million on midterms.

Reed was a key founder of the Religious Right movement in the United States and now he's vowing to recruit Black and Latino evangelicals by appealing to anti-LGBTQ and anti-abortion sentiments within those demographics.

Speaking to MSNBC on Tuesday, reporters Peter Baker and Susan Glasser spoke about their new book The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021, which talks about the "self-abasement" of Republicans who have dedicated themselves to holding his hand for six years.

Showing videos of Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC), the authors talked about the Republican senator's former opposition to Donald Trump, but now he has become a Trump loyalist. Glasser explained that it has gone further than that.

WASHINGTON — Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX) was aghast Tuesday after seeing the security videos that showed Donald Trump's allies and paid contractors handling voting equipment in one Georgia county just a few weeks after the 2020 election.

Escobar called it "shocking."

During a panel discussion on The View this Tuesday, host Alyssa Farah Griffin brought up a topic that was mentioned by fellow host Sunny Hostin earlier in the segment, where Hostin accused former South Carolina GOP Gov. Nikki Haley of being a "chameleon" who changed her name to hide her ethnicity.

"So Nikki Haley has gone by 'Nikki' since she was a child, it's documented when she was in high school," Griffin said. "I wouldn't be shocked that an Indian women growing up in South Carolina at that time -- she actually did [it] to avoid prejudice, so I just want to be careful about critiquing her about going by a name she's always gone by."

No top politicians have officially announced plans to run for president in 2024. President Joe Biden has indicated he plans to run for re-election, but has not launched a campaign. Former President Donald Trump, who Biden defeated in the 2020 election, has also not said if he’s running again.

Still, Iowa Republican candidates in the upcoming midterm elections have been joined on the campaign trail by a flurry of national politicians, some of who may be looking at the 2024 caucuses. Iowa Democrats, in contrast, have seen far fewer high-ranking visitors.

The last U.S. president to serve more than two terms was Democrat Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was elected to a fourth consecutive term in 1944 but died in office the following year. But thanks to the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution — which was passed by Congress in 1947, submitted to state legislatures for ratification and ratified in 1951 — all of the presidents who followed FDR could only be elected to two terms.

Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Dwight D. Eisenhower and George W. Bush served two consecutive terms, while Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush were voted out of office and went down in history as one-term presidents. In 2020, Donald Trump was voted out of office as well. But if Trump were to run for president in 2024 and win, he would become a rare example of a two-term U.S. president serving non-consecutive terms.

As if Republicans don't already have enough problems with the midterm elections nearing, the Daily Beast is reporting that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) have opposing ideas who should be the Republican nominee for a House seat representing New Hampshire as they back opposing candidates.

As the Beast's Jake Lahut wrote, McCarthy has put his money and name behind former Donald Trump adviser Matt Mowers for the seat currently held by Rep. Chris Pappas (D), while Stefanik, who is third in line in the GOP leadership has thrown her weight behind her former press secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

Politico has obtained a list showing the GOP mega-donors who "funneled anonymous contributions to former U.N ambassador Nikki Haley’s nonprofit as she lays the groundwork for a prospective 2024 presidential bid."

The publication says the Internal Revenue Service filing for Haley's Stand For America, Inc. shows contributions from billionaire hedge fund executives Paul Singer and Stanley Druckenmiller. Billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson donated before he passed away. His wife, Miriam Adelson, also donated.

There weren’t many Iowans on the concourse as former Vice President Mike Pence made his way around the Iowa State Fair Friday.

Most visitors were staying indoors during an afternoon downpour that hit Des Moines, but Pence and U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley braved the weather. They stopped at favorite fair locations for politicians, including the Iowa GOP booth in the Varied Industries building and the Iowa Pork Producers Tent, taking pictures with fairgoers and answering questions.

Former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) hinted on Sunday that her run for president will focus on stripping rights from transgender people.

During an interview on Fox News Sunday, Haley was asked about her presidential ambitions.

Multiple potential candidates for the GOP's 2024 presidential primary race support former President Donald Trump's plot to make it easier to purge civil servants deemed disloyal to their prospective administrations, Axios revealed Wednesday.

"These impartial civil servants... deserve protection from political interference from a president who would place preserving his power above following the law."
