Former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley blasted former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, recalling a private conversation where they defended resisting President Trump, telling her they did so out of necessity. [ ]
Haley said that the two men confided in me that when they resisted the president, they werent being insubordinate, they were trying to save the country and how Tillerson went on to tell me the reason he resisted the presidents decisions was because, if he didnt, people would die .
Haley, however, was not impressed.
It shouldve been, Go tell the president what your differences are, and quit if you dont like what hes doing, Haley told ODonnell. But to undermine a president is really a very dangerous thing. And it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. And it was offensive.

Yeah, I have reserved cautious view on Nikki Haley, she’s not a friend of the conservatives.
Not that her claim on Tillerson and Kelly not true, but Haley’s out trying to sell her new book and pad her own resume.
Here in SC, most people I know despise her for the flag issue. She is Romney in a skirt. How the heck can she afford to buy this house?

Why are you bringing this out now Nikki? Curious minds want to know. Not enough attention?
Tillerson is responsible for opening up the Boy Scouts to OFFICIALLY ACCEPT OPENLY HOMOSEXUALS!! Disgusting!
Slick GOPe deception by Haley. Throw the dead under the bus, confuse Trump supporters with your book and wait out the coup.
She’s with them.
She has a new book coming out, probably got an advance.
As a former state governor and UN Ambassador, she also sits a few corporate boards and/or makes some paid speeches. More than enough to cover a large mortgage on the property.
I’m pleasantly surprised as I have never had much use for Nicki Haley. Good for her.
Yes but, how long has she had this information? By sitting on it and only saying something now that she has a book to sell sounds problematic to me. Is she just trying to sell books at the expense of the Nation? By just coming out now wasn’t she withholding important information that the President could have used?
What she says about what Tillerson and Kelly should have done, applies to all who work at U.S. federal executive branch agencies and departments.
To all of them it must be said: You are not the elected government, you are just employees. The only elected government is those elected by the people. They are the only ones to whom authority to make policies belong, not you. If you are not comfortable carrying out a policy given by your superior, and your conscience says you should oppose it, then you have an ethical and professional OBLIGATION to quit your job. To stay on the job and seek to undermine the elected government from within is tantamount to treason.
You may think your view is superior and more “right” than the view of those who make a policy you object to. You have a right to hold that opinion, but as long as you are in the government you do not have a right to act as if your opinion will be made the government’s by you undermining a policy you object to.
These words apply to top military commanders especially, but no less to anyone else in government.
Yeah, 'save the country'... that's the ticket.... also called treason.
The total lack of integrity in the media and most Dems is the ongoing issue and we need fighters to fight back against the blatant lying and disinformation and potential lawbreaking by the Dem sycophants..
Who to believe?
Morning,
Her new book is supposed to be out tomorrow.
Of course, but she didn’t have to save this news for that — oh wait!
Rush had the same lament today.
No what they are asking is whether she told the President or held it for the book.
Good think Donaldus Magnus twigged onto them and sacked them.
I remember all of the reportage on the ammo sales. I figured that it was in part to keep it away from us, and then transfer it to ISIL. The IRS has always had armed investigators, just maybe not that many.
CID is more SWAT team like now by necessity.
Times are changing.
Believe her or not what she stated is how these things should go. We have seen the Bush/Romney/McCain/Neocon wing of the GOP try to destroy the MAGA agenda from the inside.
That is why the Democrats were using Russiagate and Ukrainegate to get at Trump rather than some left wing excuse because they hope to ally with Never Trump Republicans around a Deep State agenda issue they can rally behind.
