Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley suffered an embarrassing mishap in New Hampshire Monday that some are comparing to Jeb Bush’s infamous “please clap” moment.
Haley was campaigning in the small town of Hooksett where she was joined by RINO Governor Chris Sununu. She bragged about the crowd that came to see her speak and vowed to win the state two months from now.
Voters lined up early in Hooksett for our town hall today. Thank you for coming out and special thanks to Gov. @ChrisSununu for joining us on the trail!
New Hampshire, we’re working hard to earn every vote. 64 days until we make history together—let’s win this! pic.twitter.com/rhZMQvoAdC

While she was delivering her talking points, her attempt to compliment a nine-year-old girl on her hat backfired when the child exposed the brutal truth before hundreds of people.
Haley: I love your hat.
Girl: Thanks. One of your guys gave it to me for free.
The crowd erupted in laughter after the little one gave away Team Haley’s little stunt. An embarrassed Haley could only chuckle uncomfortably as well.
Yes, her team gave the little girl a hat and asked her to keep it a secret. But the child was not going to live down a lie!

Haley learned the hard way that kids say the darndest things and they are terrible at keeping secrets. The fact that this small child completely humiliated Haley should be a huge hint that it’s time to give up the ghost and drop out of the presidential race.
If a nine-year-old can walk all over, just imagine what Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin would be able to do.

Guest Post by Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life
In their recently concluded semi-annual meeting, the United States Catholic bishops, by a vote of 225-11, reaffirmed the “pre-eminent” nature of the abortion issue for American voters.
The assertion was part of the guidance they have prepared for Catholics as the 2024 election cycle continues to intensify. The exact wording they adopted is,
“The threat of abortion remains our pre-eminent priority because it directly attacks our most vulnerable and voiceless brothers and sisters and destroys more than a million lives per year in our country alone.”
The first thing to note about this assertion is that it is by no means a new one for the Catholic hierarchy. In 1974, the year following the Roe v. Wade decision, the Vatican’s “Declaration on Procured Abortion” pointed out, “The first right of the human person is his life. He has other goods and some are more precious, but this one is fundamental – the condition of all the others.”
Such assertions continued in subsequent years, both from the Vatican and from the US Bishops.
For instance, in 1989 the US Bishops declared in their Resolution on Abortion that “At this particular time, abortion has become the fundamental human rights issue for all men and women of good will.”
This stance culminated in St. John Paul II’s 1995 encyclical The Gospel of Life, in which he pointed out that abortion has a particular gravity among actions taken against human life because:
The right to life is the condition for all other rights
The unborn are the most frail and defenseless human beings
The evil of abortion is compounded by the fact that many governments consider this act of violence to be a legally protected “right;” and
This violence occurs within the family, which is the “sanctuary of life.”
Along with these reasons, of course, as pointed out by the US bishops, nothing destroys more life than abortion. It’s numbers far surpass the leading causes of death, namely, heart disease (over 695,000 annually) and cancer (over 605,000 annually). Abortion destroys more than a million children each year in the United States.
The pre-eminence of abortion has been repeatedly stated in many Church documents to this day, including in the US Bishops’ official “Pastoral Plan for Pro-life Activities”, and in their recent plenary gatherings.
Even Pope Francis pointed out in his first Apostolic Exhortation, “The Joy of the Gospel,” “Among the vulnerable for whom the Church wishes to care with particular love and concern are unborn children, the most defenceless and innocent among us” (n. 213).
Now some will try to contrast this pre-eminence of abortion with other declarations of Pope Francis, such as his 2018 Apostolic Exhortation (“Gaudete et Exsultate”) in which he points out that the lives of those who are already born are “equally sacred.”
Well of course they are. Every human life is equal.
But not every attack on human life is equal. Some are more direct, some are more violent, and some claim more victims.
In the case of abortion, we have, as the Catholic bishops explained in their document “Living the Gospel of Life,” a situation analogous to attacking the very foundation of a house, and not just any individual part of it.
Nobody would say that the foundation is the only part of the house. At the same time, nobody would deny that absent a foundation, all the rest of the house collapses.
Similarly, nobody would say that abortion is the only issue. But abortion denies and attacks the heart and core of every issue, namely, the right to life.
That right is what makes any issue an issue to begin with. We care about poverty, for instance, because the poor have a right to live. So do the unemployed. So do those who lack health care. And so do those threatened by war or terrorism.
Remove the right to life, and you remove the reason to care about any issue.
Abortion directly denies and attacks that human right to life. The unborn are being destroyed not primarily because of any characteristic they have, and certainly not because of anything they have said or done (they have not yet exercised a single free act or spoken a single word), but simply because they exist. Their very lives – and nothing more – are the obstacle that somebody else wants to remove.
Now we have both understanding and compassion for all who feel they must have an abortion, and we help them to find life-giving alternatives. On that we must never waver.
But none of that changes the compelling consideration, the “self-evident truth” as our Declaration states, that the right to life is inalienable. In other words, we cannot dispense with it by our own choice, and nobody else’s choice – whether an individual or a government – can deprive us of it.
A human right is a right we possess precisely because we are human, not because a Court grants it or a law recognizes it. Nobody can make us non-human, and therefore nobody can deprive us of a human right.
This is why, going back to Church pronouncements, the US Bishops made this stunning assertion, worthy of the consideration of every voter:
“The failure to protect and defend life in its most vulnerable stages renders suspect any claims to the ‘rightness’ of positions in other matters affecting the poorest and least powerful of the human community” (Living the Gospel of Life, n.23).
Why does it “render suspect” the claim, for instance, that one supports the right to education or health care?
Simple… Because saying you can kill a child before birth means that those other “rights” belong to some people but not to all… and hence they cannot be human rights.
And that opens up the Pandora’s box question which the other side seems to think is the answer: Who decides which people get that right?
The pro-life position, and the reason abortion is the pre-eminent issue, is that Nobody decides. It is beyond human authority to grant or deny someone’s right to life. Our only option – always – is to protect it.

McDonough, GA – A lawsuit, along with a leaked video, has revealed that an innocent Georgia girl was stabbed at several times by a vicious youth during gym class this past spring. Now the parents want the school to pay for failing to protect their daughter after she suffered life-altering injuries resulting from the evil attack.
Law and Crime reported Friday that back on March 15, a student at Ola Middle School was being harassed by a female bully while she was walking to gym class. They began fighting once they entered the gym.
Unfortunately for the innocent girl, her tormentor had a knife and proceeded to stab her 14 times across her face, head, neck, shoulder, back and chest. As one can see in video, several students stare and seemingly cheer on the assault.
WATCH (video of the stabbing starts at 1:28 and ends at 1:40):
Watch the latest video at foxnews.com
The fight reportedly started over a beef on social media with someone who was not involved in the attack. The girl desperately tried to avoid her bully and asked the suspect to “leave her alone” multiple times.
The victim’s mother, Ashley Wilson of Henry County, is now suing school administrators, specifically naming the principal and three vice principals in the lawsuit, for a whopping $3 million for failing to protect their daughter. Her lawsuit alleges school police had previously informed school administrators that the attacker had a knife on campus and threatened other students the day before and the day of the assault. Administrators then violated district policy by failing to investigate the weapon and ignoring the bullying.
“It’s not a choice. It’s required that the administrators conduct an investigation. And it’s required that a student who brings a dangerous weapon onto campus be expelled. These things were not done, so even the most basic initial step — an investigation — would have prevented the attack from occurring,” Wilson family attorney Andrew Gould, a founding member of Princenthal, May & Wilson law firm in Sandy Springs, Georgia told Fox News.
The complaint also alleges teachers who saw the bullying failed to defuse the situation and protect the victim.
Teachers who witnessed the harassment did not defuse the situation. The teachers who witnessed the bullying failed to keep the victim safe while on school property.
Adam Princenthal, another Wilson family attorney, told Fox News on Sunday that Wilson’s daughter is still recovering “both physically and emotionally.”
The attack resulted in 14 stab wounds and lacerations across Ashley’s daughter’s body — everything from her face to her neck to her back to her breasts. And she is, to this day, still recovering both physically and emotionally.

Princenthal went on to tell the network the girl has “scars everywhere” including one on her face. This one is “the primary concern of the young lady” because it “remains noticeable to this day.”
Wilson lawyers say the suspect was arrested following the brutal assault but no other information is available regarding the specific charges according to Fox News.

It’s rare, but every now and then you come across someone who seems to fully understand the anti-human nature of the globalist agenda being pushed on society today by the United Nations, World Health Organization, World Economic Forum, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, et al.
It’s an agenda which I believe is a form of global techno-fascism. Imagine the Nazi Third Reich with the power of today’s artificial intelligence run by super-computers. If that same ideology were alive today, and I believe it is, what you would ultimately end up with is a rising Fourth Reich positioning itself for total domination of all tribes and tongues. We’ve seen the antisemitism that is inherent in this system in recent weeks. We’ve seen it on college campuses, where the whole “trans” movement has been fueled. We’ve seen the ugly chants being spouted on our city streets. We see it in the world’s fastest-growing religion, Islam. All of these various factions share one thing in common, they demand our submission.
We also saw during the pandemic how the globalists positioned their minions to exert almost full control over human activity, clamping down on our freedom of movement, telling us where we could and could not meet, with how many and for how long. They told us which businesses were “essential” and which were not. They exerted control over our gathering together to worship. They tried to control our economic activity (only shop at big-box stores not those dirty independent shops). They discouraged the use of cash, and controlled our healthcare decisions (you must get a never-ending schedule of injections of a mystery substance with secret ingredients). Talk about submission, they wanted us to all have an app on our phones that would identify us as one of their slaves, who is perpetually up to date on our shots and approved for travel and entry into various public venues. The mantra of UN Agenda 2030 is “No person will be left behind” by this system.
Few people see the whole ugly picture of what’s happening. They cannot connect the dots. They’re confused by all the players and their many demands.
Laura Aboli is a citizen of the UK with a background in entrepreneurial business and intelligence gathering.
In response to this emerging spirit of global control demanding mass submission, Aboli founded the United Democratic International Movement for Awareness and Freedom in 2020. She said something was needed to counteract the fear and the mind control that was leading people to willingly accept the unacceptable – the loss of their freedom, the restriction of civil rights and the imposition of a “new normal” based on separation, alienation, disconnection and total control by a group of elite globalist billionaires.
At the Better Way Conference in June 2023 in Bath, England, Aboli gave a speech on the transhumanist agenda that seeks to replace Christian civilization and biblical values with an antichrist, anti-human dystopia. If her speech resonates with you as much as it did with me, please share it with your friends and family.
Aboli says the transhumanist goal is to get us to question the most fundamental distinction of human identity: our gender.
In the 1980 book The Socialist Phenomenon, Russian author Egor Shafarevich, who was a contemporary and working partner of the great Alexander Solzhenitsyn, points out that the end goal of all socialist ideologies, since the beginning of time, has been a chronic death wish. Death of culture. Death of meaning. Death of beauty. Death of the family. Death of the human existence. Although it employs different methods, modern technocracy is, like socialism, a collectivist movement that claims to be working for “the greater good” of society while actually working to destroy it. That’s why abortion and the LGBTQ movement are the left’s two biggest obsessions right now — both lead to death of the human race.
Aboli recognizes this when she commented in the above video:
“If you don’t know who you are. If you already identify as a hybrid between a man and a woman, you will easily be convinced to become a hybrid between human and a machine. Gender ideology is the 2 plus 2 equals 5 from George Orwell’s 1984 dystopian novel. It’s the final test, to see whether we will follow the most absurd party line towards our own extinction. But 2 plus 2 equals 4, and no mater how you choose to dress, call yourself, or change your physique, you will not change that. The sad reality, though, is that in the gaslighting process to get us closer to a post-human future, they have mentally and physically harmed an increasing number of children and young people. And it’s only getting worse. This, must be stopped.”

On Monday, the US Supreme Court rejected former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin’s appeal to reconsider his conviction for second-degree murder in the killing of George Floyd.
The justices did not comment on their decision to leave in place state court rulings affirming Chauvin’s conviction and 22 1/2-year sentence, San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
In October, attorneys representing Chauvin appealed to the Supreme Court to review his case. This appeal was based on the refusal of a Minnesota trial court to change the venue of the trial and sequester the jury. Chauvin argued that holding the trial in Minneapolis violated his right to a fair trial. He argued this was due to extensive pretrial media coverage and the potential for violent protests and riots if he were found not guilty.
“Mr. Chauvin’s case shows the profound difficulties trial courts have to ensure a criminal defendant’s right to an impartial jury consistently when extreme cases arise,” his attorneys told the court, per USA Today. “This was particularly true here when the jurors themselves had a vested interest in finding Mr. Chauvin guilty in order to avoid further rioting in the community in which they lived and the possible threat of physical harm to them or their families.”
On May 25, 2020, George Floyd, a Black man, died while in police custody. Video footage showed Officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s neck for over nine minutes. This led to widespread protests across the United States under the “Black Lives Matter” banner, advocating against police brutality.
As a result, Chauvin was convicted of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.
Tucker Carlson addressed an issue that has been the subject of intense scrutiny and debate for more than three years: the circumstances surrounding the death of George Floyd. Carlson broke through the obfuscating cloud of mainstream media and challenged the narrative that George Floyd was murdered by a ‘racist’ white cop, Derek Chauvin.
During his recent show, Tucker Carlson revealed new court case information coming from Hennepin County, Minnesota. Although not directly related to Floyd or Chauvin, the case involves a deposition from Amy Sweasy, a prosecutor in the area.
Amy Sweasy, a top prosecutor in Hennepin County, filed a lawsuit against her former boss, Mike Freeman, alleging sex discrimination and retaliation. As a part of this legal endeavor, a treasure trove of documents and testimonies has come to light, providing an unfiltered view into the internal workings and pressures that shaped the high-profile case against Chauvin and his fellow officers. The state settled the sex discrimination claim, agreeing to pay $190,000 to Sweasy, who resigned in April 2021.
Patrick Lofton, Senior Assistant County Attorney who worked on police use-of-force cases with Sweasy, explicitly detailed the pressure prosecutors were under to file charges. “The city was burning down,” he stated, underlining the urgency of the moment, Alpha News reported.
Although Lofton expressed that he believed there was “probable cause to charge Mr. Chauvin with third-degree murder,” he felt that the external pressure was “insane.” Lofton, along with Sweasy, withdrew from the officers’ cases in June 2020, capturing his reservations in a letter to Freeman: “I wanted it in writing, and I wanted to make sure it was documented that I wasn’t going to let that situation, what was going on in the world, affect my judgment because I have to sleep at night no matter what.”
Among the documents and testimonies, Sweasy discussed a crucial conversation she had with Hennepin County Medical Examiner Dr. Andrew Baker the day after Floyd’s death.
Dr. Baker reportedly said that there were “no medical findings that showed any injury to the vital structures of Mr. Floyd’s neck. There were no medical indications of asphyxia or strangulation.”
“In other words, George Floyd, according to the official autopsy, was not murdered. He died instead of what we used to call natural causes, which in his case would include decades of drug use, as well as the fatal concentration of fentanyl that was in his system on his final day. So this was not a killing, it was yet another narcotics OD in a country that records more than 100,000 of them every year. The medical examiner clearly understood that and, in fact, articulated it,” Tucker Carlson said.
With this new development, Police officer Derek Chauvin filed papers in court last week, saying that the evidence proves that he did not commit murder in Floyd’s death, the Associated Press reported.
In his filing, the former cop said he would never have agreed to plead guilty if he had known about the theories of a Kansas pathologist who says that Floyd’s physical condition was the principal cause of death, not the actions of the police.
Chauvin is asking the judge to throw out his conviction and order a new trial, or at the very least open a new evidentiary hearing to look at the evidence.
The convicted Chauvin pleaded guilty to charges after a video showed him placing his knee on George Floyd’s neck during an arrest attempt on May 25, 2020. In the video, Floyd is heard saying “I can’t breathe,” before passing out. The man’s death sparked dangerous and costly riots nationwide and spurred the growth of the anti-cop “Defund the Police” movement.
Chauvin said that Topeka, Kansas, Dr. William Schaetzel has reviewed the autopsy records and feels that Floyd did not die of asphyxia caused by the cop’s knee cutting off his air flow, but instead died of a rare tumor called a paraganglioma, which can cause a fatal surge of adrenaline.
Schaetzel told The Associated Press that he felt his diagnosis was serious enough to alert authorities and Chauvin.
“I can’t go to my grave with what I know,” Schaetzel said. “I just want the truth,” he added.
Schaetzel also said he tried to alert officials during Chauvin’s trial in 2021, as well. He said he spoke to trial attorney Eric Nelson as well as Judge Peter Cahill, but nothing came of the attempt.
Chauvin claimed that Nelson was negligent for neglecting to tell him of Schaetzel’s claims. The convicted cop also said that Nelson failed to challenge the constitutionality of the federal charge.
The jailed cop also said that no jury would have convicted him if they had heard Schaetzel’s evidence.
Chauvin filed his motion without a lawyer.
