This is vile, but unsurprising from Nikki Haley. The same person who refused to take down the Confederate Flag until the tragedy in Charleston, and tried to justify a Confederate History Month. She’s just as MAGA as Trump.
Stunning moment: At a town hall in Berlin, N.H., Nikki Haley was asked by a voter what was the cause of the Civil War. She said the war was about government interfering in people’s freedoms. The voter then called her out for not mentioning slavery.

The majority of the Dem electorate in SC is Black and our governor is saying out loud he can’t wait to hunt us down with dogs. This is absolutely chilling to hear from a Southern Gov who knows our history.
@NikkiHaley @votetimscott - Will you condemn this blatant dog whistle?
McMaster repeating one of his favorite GOP lines: "I look forward to the day that democrats are so rare, we have to hunt them with dogs."

Labor & delivery is and has always been a major medical process. It was a dangerous undertaking 80 years ago when my grandmother was having babies and it’s still just as dangerous today, especially for Black Women. My birthing horror story reminds me that we have to be strong medical advocates for each other.
For Black Maternal Health Week, I am proud to have brought Chair @LavoraBarnes from @MichiganDems & Chair @ChristaleSpain from @scdp together to have a serious conversation about the Black maternal health crisis and our experiences with pregnancy and motherhood.
