Nikki Haley, fierce defender of American values and allies, resigns as UN ambassador
Jordan Schachtel · October 9, 2018 CONSERVATIVE REVIEW Nikki Haley has resigned as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Her replacement will have big shoes to fill. Haley fundamentally transformed the U.N. ambassador post while simultaneously securing major geopolitical victories for the United States. She was a widely renowned official in the Trump administration, achieving almost unanimous recognition from conservatives and moderates alike. read more POSTED ON OCTOBER 9, 2018 BY SCOTT JOHNSON POWERLINE
NIKKI HALEY RESIGNS Word comes this morning that Nikki Haley is resigning from her position as United States Ambassador to the United Nations. Axios broke the story here.

Among the qualities a truly great U.S. ambassador to the United Nations must exhibit is a healthy contempt for that institution, and Haley possessed it in spades. Haley was never shy about identifying the myriad ways in which the United Nations enabled illiberal despots to snipe at the world’s democracies. “Unlike in some U.N. member countries, the United States government is answerable to its people,” Haley said in December 2017, when President Donald Trump fulfilled a congressional mandate to relocate the U.S. embassy to Israel’s capital — a move that prompted the United Nations General Assembly to condemn America. “The United States will remember this day,” she added. “And we will remember it when so many countries come calling on us, as they so often do, to pay even more and to use our influence for their benefit.” read more |
