    They call her "The Hammer".

    VP?

    She might be the next president.

    During the primaries there was a lot of talk about her being selected as a running mate. I would like to see her become the first female president.

    Nikki Haley Goes Off On UN Over Jerusalem Vote: We’ll Remember This When You Come Begging For Money Next Time.

    In case there was any ambiguity to that, she sent around an email to her fellow ambassadors a few days ago:

    “As you consider your vote, I want you to know that the President and U.S. take this vote personally,” Haley wrote in an email that was obtained by Foreign Policy. “The President will be watching this vote carefully and has requested I report back on those countries who voted against us. We will take note of each and every vote on this issue.”

    https://hotair.com/archives/2017/12...e-well-remember-come-begging-money-next-time/

    The Security Council voted 14-1 on Monday to demand that the U.S. rescind its decisions to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and to move the U.S. embassy there (eventually). The lone no vote came, of course, from Haley, and since the U.S. is a permanent member of the UNSC, that meant the motion didn’t pass. So Israel’s critics moved to Plan B, holding a vote of the entire General Assembly to declare the White House’s decision “null and void,” whatever the hell that means. That vote would carry no official weight but it would operate as a rebuke of the U.S. and its president. So Haley warned them, three times — first in the email, then in last night’s tweet, and again today in the speech below — that America would be treating this as a test of who its real friends are.

    This is damned good domestic politics by her and Trump, taking a stand for American sovereignty and putting the General Assembly on notice that the days of the U.S. bankrolling the biggest international platform for anti-Israel bloodsuckers are numbered *if* it remains anti-Israel. Haley’s speech here is quintessentially “America First.” Whereas Obamaites might view the UN as a sort of charity which, in theory, serves the common good by keeping the peace internationally, Trumpists view it as an investment. If your investment isn’t delivering returns for you then you’re going to divest. Strictly business.

    Haley “has made it clear that the U.N. needs America more than America needs the U.N.,” wrote Eli Lake early this morning. “This is not just because the U.S. hosts the body’s headquarters. It’s because the U.S. remains the indispensable member of the organization.”

    The U.S. does need partners, especially in handling North Korea, but its own alliances with South Korea and Japan provide those partnerships irrespective of whether they operate under the auspices of the UN. As for other countries they may think that American money and international cooperation will likely keep flowing in in the face of the occasional “Death to the Jews” floor vote.

    Well, she's right. No nation (except the one where we're placing an embassy) should have any power to dictate where we place an embassy.

    No nation on earth has the power to dictate where the US places it's embassies is a lie.

    Israel has that power.

    In fact, every foreign nation has the power to dictate where US places it's embassy in that nation.

    Did we tell you where you could put your embassies? What makes you think we'll let you tell us where we can put ours?

    Who’s bullying? Don’t cunfuse strenth in our own causes for bullying. No one can tell us where to put our embassy, and if they want to talk smack and have whack job votes that don’t matter to try to embarrass us, then let’s cut our funding to the UN down to the average % that pther first world countries pay and cut off any additional or aid resources to the 128 countries that tried to give us a black eye. Let them stew on that for a while.

    WRONG
    All the bullying was attempted by America's, or should I say Israel's prostitute talking head
    .....................
    . & by their vote, the UN have just told the USA & Isreal to "Go To Hell"
    ...........................................................................................................................with your GD'd threats

    The UN members would have none of it - America now stands totally isolated,
    &
    exposed, a cheap arrogant Shill manipulated by its Zionist Puppetmasters
    POTUS, Congress, Senate & Judiciary - all bought & paid for
    ..........................................................................................................[​IMG]

    UN Votes Resoundingly To Reject
    Trump's Recognition Of Jerusalem As Capital
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/dec/21/united-nations-un-vote-donald-trump-jerusalem-israel

    From the Article:

    The vote came after a redoubling of threats by Nikki Haley, the US ambassador to the UN, who said
    that Washington would remember which countries “disrespected” America by voting against it.

    We put our embassies where the countries capital is. Israel says Jerusalem is their capital. By law we are required to build our embassies there.

    No country has the right to tell the US or Israel where we can or will put our embassies.

    They can not like it all they want.
