• Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley got some news buzz from the launch of her 2024 presidential campaign earlier this month — plus the chatter about some controversial attacks on her — and her time in the spotlight has indeed led her to surge in the polls, doubling her support…from 3 percent to 6 percent.
• Haley officially announced she was running on Feb. 15, with a campaign video released the day before. Her campaign launch was swiftly met with attacks from both the left and right, many of which focused on her Indian immigrant parents’ heritage, including Ann Coulter (told the South Carolina-born Haley to “go back to your country“), Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) (called her “Bush in Heels“), and Daily Beast contributor Wajahat Ali (accused Haley of being a “Manchurian candidate” who was using her “brown skin to launder” White supremacy).
