Would Biden grant her SS protection while not giving it to RFK Jr?
Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley has recently requested Secret Service protection, citing increased security threats in her role as a 2024 presidential candidate. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Haley expressed determination in the face of adversity, stating, “We’ve had multiple issues … It’s not going to stop me from doing what I need to do.” While her campaign did not disclose specific details about the threats prompting the request, recent incidents have raised concerns about her safety. Sean Davis said ‘This poll right here is exactly why the corrupt Biden administration refuses to give Secret Service protection to RFK, Jr., whose father *and* uncle were both killed by the CIA. see below

Protestors opposing Haley’s stance on Ukraine funding disrupted some of her events in North Carolina, highlighting the contentious nature of her candidacy. Additionally, it was revealed last month that Haley was the target of a swatting incident in December. Swatting involves falsely reporting incidents to the police to prompt a response, posing serious risks as law enforcement may respond forcefully without knowing it is a hoax.

In the December swatting incident, an unknown individual called 911, falsely claiming to have shot his girlfriend and threatened self-harm at Nikki Haley’s residence. Fortunately, it was determined to be a hoax, as Haley was not on the island at the time, and her son was with her. Reflecting on the incident, Haley expressed the distress caused to her elderly parents, who were at home during the false alarm.

In a subsequent incident on New Year’s Day, another swatting attempt occurred, falsely reporting that Haley’s daughter was in danger, and the GOP candidate was threatening self-harm. These incidents have undoubtedly heightened concerns for Haley’s safety, prompting her campaign to assess the impact on travel plans and campaign schedules.
To address the escalating security concerns, Haley has applied for Secret Service protection. However, it’s crucial to note that the decision to grant protection is not within the Secret Service’s purview. The Secretary of Homeland Security holds the authority, consulting a Congressional Advisory Committee, including key political figures, before making a determination.

The guidelines stipulate that protection is generally granted within one year of the general election, with exceptions based on threat assessments and other factors for cases more than a year before the election. Spouses of major presidential and vice-presidential candidates are also eligible for protection. The tradition of providing such protection began after the assassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968.
Notably, the timing of Secret Service protection has been a subject of scrutiny in the past. President Joe Biden received protection 221 days before the 2020 election during the Trump administration. Similarly, Barack Obama received protection in May 2007, almost two years before the election. Last year, an independent presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., accused the Biden administration of denying him protection despite perceived threats. The CIA has been accused of killing his father as well as his uncle, the President of the United States. Surely this man is deserving of such protection long before Haley ever would qualify.

Haley’s request for Secret Service protection aligns with her position as the sole remaining GOP challenger against former President Donald Trump in the Republican primaries. Having faced defeat in the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary, Haley now gears up for the South Carolina primary on Feb. 24, a critical contest in her home state.
Despite the challenges, recent polling indicates President Trump securing 58 percent support from likely Republican primary voters, with Haley trailing at 32 percent. The Leftist Monmouth University-Washington Post Poll suggests that Haley’s chances may hinge on attracting Democratic-leaning voters opposed to Trump but acknowledges the formidable task ahead. Haly has no hope to defeat Trump among actual Republican voters.

In the larger political landscape, Haley’s security concerns underscore the broader issue of balancing the safety of political figures with the need for fair and equal protection. The controversy surrounding Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s claims adds complexity to the debate, emphasizing the delicate nature of providing security amid political rivalries. As Haley navigates the evolving dynamics of the 2024 race, her plea for protection highlights the challenges faced by candidates in an increasingly polarized political environment. If Biden grants her SS protection, then Kenndy should also get the protection as his family has a history of political assassinations.
