Nikki Haley's backpedaling/damage control is an epic fail.
The facts of history are clear – slavery was absolutely the cause of the US Civil War. Full Stop. She did not clearly state this fact – while diluting her reasoning/answer with 2023 Republican talking points.

Important to note:
These are the numbers we should be looking at now
Ignore the polls (too early)
Ignore the Trump bluster
Ignore cable drama
This👇is what really matters!

Trump blatantly threatened General Mark Milley *with death* yesterday on his social media post. Let's hope Milley is on one (or all) of the witness lists for Trump's upcoming felony trials. Trump must be jailed pending his trials.

A bail bond is a loan.
Trump paid $20,000 (plus possibly other fees). The bail bondsman pays the other $180,000 of Trump’s bail.
HE COULDN’T PAY HIS OWN BAIL — and relied on debt, like he always does.

Jade In NM @JadeinNMOn MSNBC, Jon Sale, fmr Watergste prosecutor, said he thinks Fani Willis is grandstanding.
