WALTHAM, MA — A somber mood fell over one of the nation's foremost defense contractors this morning, as Raytheon lowered its flags to half-staff after Nikki Haley announced she was dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.
The aerospace technology corporation, which had been holding out hope that the world would enter a new era of highly profitable war, destruction, and death with the onset of World War III, was devastated by this morning's news that Haley had suspended her campaign.
"This is a major blow," said a Raytheon spokesperson. "We are deeply saddened by the news of Nikki Haley dropping out of the race. It is a dark day for us and for anyone who was hoping for a much darker future for the human race, and indeed the entire world. We have lowered our flags to half-staff in solemn memory of the dream we shared with Nikki Haley of endless wars and vast rivers of defense contract money."
In a brief statement, Haley also acknowledged disappointment that she would be unable to lead the country into a global conflict that would wreak havoc on human civilization. "It is indeed a sad day," she said. "While Donald Trump continues his quest to return the world to a state of peace and stability, we hoped to plunge the globe further into very lucrative chaos. I thank my dear friends at Raytheon for their support, the millions and millions of dollars they have given me over the years, and their ongoing desire to see the world burn."
At publishing time, Raytheon's parent company had already offered Haley a seat on its board of directors.
The Bee is so good, I had to double check to be sure this wasn’t real.
That is hilarious.
Their writers for the last several years are just consistently EN FUEGO! as here.
🔥🔥🔥
Having once worked there, not far from the truth ...
Add Boeing....
The picture shows the American Flag but Raytheon would lower the Ukrainian Flag to half-staff as well.
Almost fell for it.
LOL
Nikki’s Other Statement
After losing to Trump I got bored
I expect my seat on the Raytheon board.
I’ll keep laundered campaign cash —a hoard
But root for Biden so Trump will get gored.
Don’t forget Lockheed—they are the largest military and non military contractor.
They are the big pig at the federal trough.
I bought some general dynamics stock 6-12 months ago when they really started pushing this fund Ukraine stuff - a good hedge as it turns out.
Yep....worked for em for 32 yrs....
Cool—so I take it you can tell us where to find the alien crafts and bodies....
Lol.
I work for Raytheon and can confirm this! The flag is right next to the LGBTQI Supremacy flag
I left those behind when I retired…..😉
