Nikki Haley asks for Secret Service protection after increase in threats on campaign trail
NY Post ^ | 5 February A,.D. 2024 | Paul Steinhauser

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley has applied for Secret Service protection because of increasing threats she has received on the campaign trail, Haley’s team confirmed to Fox News on Monday.

The former two-term South Carolina governor who later served as U.N. ambassador in former President Donald Trump’s administration is Trump’s last remaining major rival for the 2024 GOP nomination.

Haley discussed the request for protection in an interview Monday afternoon with The Wall Street Journal.

“We’ve had multiple issues,” the former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador said after a campaign event in Aiken, South Carolina. “It’s not going to stop me from doing what I need to do.”

Haley was asked at a news conference in Columbia, S.C. late last week about increased levels of security at her events.

“When you do something like this, you get threats,” she told reporters. “It’s just the reality.”

Maybe they will give her the same Secret Service protection they want to give Trump...

The level of SS protection will reveal who is the anointed one.

Threats against Neo-Con Nikki?

Sounds like an FBI-Whitmer Kidnap operation.

She wouldn’t need it if she would do the right thing by bowing out gracefully and supporting Trump.

She won’t do that because she’s a plant. The chosen globalist sock puppet.

She looks haggard and awful. Like she lost way too much weight and aged ten years.

Well the liberals and dems should keep her safe.
Drama Queen Haley needs attention because nobody cares!
She’s not a threat but just annoying!

I just wish they’d find her a cage to effectively stop her ridiculous campaign and keep her off the trail.

Lying, and taking money from RATS and anti-Trumpers will do that to you.

Pretty sure it’s up to Mayorkas who gets SS protection or not

You can bet that Nikki will get it

Bird brain was so low in the polls, she hoped calling in her own "swatting" would change the trajectory of her campaign.
