Insiders have broken the news, Trump will be getting the endorsement from governor Mike Huckabee in Arkansas Shortly before the Arkansas Caucus.
This comes after Huck's daughter endorsed Trump
Donald Trump announced Thursday that Mike Huckabee's daughter, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is joining his campaign.
"I have great respect for Governor Mike Huckabee and we have a mutual admiration for our wonderful families. It is great to have his daughter, Sarah, join the campaign," Trump said in a statement.
"What makes Mr. Trump my choice for president is he will break the grip of the donor class on our government and make it accountable to working families again," said Sanders, who is joining Trump's team as a senior advisor.
Sanders' father, the former Arkansas Governor, was previously Trump's rival for the Republican nomination and dropped out of the raceimmediately after the Iowa caucus results rolled in. Huckabee, who ran for president in 2008 as well and won the Iowa caucus that year, has yet to endorse someone in the race. The announcement could be a hint that he'll throw his weight behind Trump.
ENTONVILLE (KFSM) -- The Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport outlined some guidelines ahead of Donald Trump's airport rally on Saturday (Feb. 27).
Airport officials are anticipating nearly 8,500 will be heading to hear the presidential hopeful speak at XNA. Although the event is free, people will still need tickets to attend the event, which can be found here.
With such a large crowd expected, airport officials said the rally will be held at the Regional Jet Center Hanger, instead of the terminal.
People will be standing on concrete outside, so XNA director Kelly Johnson is encouraging visitors to come prepared.
"There's not going to be any seating, so think about that when you dress to come out to the event," she said.
Everyone will need to pass through security before the event. Screening will begin at 9 a.m.
"There will be seven stations set up and you'll go through a metal detector," Johnson said. "Don't bring bottles of water, don't bring your pocket knife don't bring a lawn chair. That's not going to be allowed."
Limited parking will be available, so carpooling is encouraged. Parking will be directed to Lot 1 first, followed by Lot 2. After both of those are filled, drivers will be directed to Overflow Lot 3.
"We've got three fields set up there so you will be parking in the field," Johnson said. "It's not a great place to try to park thousands of people. Carpool if you can because once the parking is gone, it is gone."
All passengers with Saturday morning flights are encouraged to arrive two hours before their flights are scheduled to depart.
"There are only about 700 people traveling until noon, so we encourage those folks to please look at your travel plans and adjust your drive time in the event that we do have a back up," Johnson said. "We saw that happen the last time we did one of these, with Bush."
The rally is expected to last an hour.
The next commander in chief will face a stark reality: for eight years, President Obama systematically drained resources from our armed services. It will no longer matter why or how he did it. All that will matter is what happens next.
While President Obama may have been hoping that unilateral disarmament on the part of the United States would result in similar behavior from other major powers, the opposite has happened. Both China and Russia are engaged in significant military buildups and aggressive behavior from Ukraine to Syria to the South China Sea.
Iran, which had been restrained by one of the most punishing economic sanctions regimes in history, is now on a $100 billion military shopping spree primarily at the Russian arms industry checkout counter courtesy of the American president. ..."

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Russia's push into Ukraine has put many on edge. But less known is that Russia is also strengthening its military links south of the Rio Grande and re-establishing itself as a power in the region.
Vladimir Putin has been strengthening military links here, and Russia is now the largest arms dealer to governments in Latin America, surpassing the United States.
Russia has even floated the possibility of building new military bases in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua, and putting its warships permanently in the Caribbean.
In the midst of the Ukraine crisis, Russia's top diplomat Sergei Lavrov recently visited Cuba, Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, where he announced that Russia would also pour money into the new Central American canal project. ..."

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.
Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.
Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.

Those exercises included several simulated nuclear attacks against NATO allies and partner nations ..."
