Final CNN/UNH Poll Has Trump Leading Haley by 11 Points

  And then there were two – former President Donald Trump and former U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley will duke it out in the first-in-the-nation primary on Tuesday. Sunday's final polling before the primary by CNN/University of New Hampshire had Trump ahead 50%-39%. The sampling of 2,348 with margin of error +/-2.8% was taken Tuesday through Friday of last week, ahead of Sunday afternoon's announcement by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis he was dropping out and endorsing Trump. Trump was well ahead in registered Republicans; Haley commanded a lead among the independents. There are 22 delegates to the Republican National Convention up for grabs, and awarded proportionally. New Hampshire, which picks presidential winners about 80% of the time since the turn of the 20th century, had 10 candidate names on the 2016 primary and Trump bested them with more than 35% of the vote after having run second to Sen. Ted Cruz in the Iowa caucuses. In November, he was a loser to Democrat Hillary Clinton. Haley has invested heavily in New Hampshire, crisscrossing the state with Gov. Chris Sununu, who endorsed the former ambassador back in mid-December. During Sununu’s endorsement speech, he predicted the battle would ultimately come down to Trump and Haley. “This is a race between two people. Nikki Haley and Donald Trump. That’s it … with all due respect to the other candidates,” Sununu told the crowd at a time when the field was more than a half-dozen. Sununu has urged voters to support Haley, hoping the combined support could be enough to dethrone Trump. Haley's home state of South Carolina is next in the primary schedule, on the first Saturday in February. South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, who got engaged Saturday, gave an endorsement to Trump this weekend. In The Center Square Voters' Voice Poll taken Jan. 2-4, Trump's 61% easily beat challengers Haley (12%), DeSantis (11%) and Vivek Ramaswamy (7%). Ramaswamy dropped out after Iowa.

Wauwatosa Tells City Workers to Avoid Red & Green Christmas Decorations

Image
The City of Wauwatosa has instructed city workers that they should avoid using red and green in public spaces to celebrate Christmas. Instead, top city officials are urging them to decorate counters with purple and blue instead. The email went out this week from Deputy City Administrator Melissa Cantarero Weiss. It also notes that City Administrator James Archambo is on board with the instructions. In it, she urged city workers to embrace “inclusive decorating practices” and make Wauwatosa’s municipal buildings a “place that everyone can feel comfortable visiting throughout the holiday season.” City workers were urged to “opt for more neutral and inclusive decorations.” We received the email from multiple sources who questioned why Wauwatosa was making this a priority when the city has far more pressing issues. Even the White House doesn't go that far ; after all there is a National Christmas Tree. [caption id="attachment_155412" align="alignleft" wid...

The Coast Guard Academy’s Newest DEI Push

Image
By Michael R. Shevock DEI is a bad idea. It is divisive, racist, and anti-meritocratic. Coleman Hughes , Ayaan Hirsi Ali , Elon Musk , and a host of other first-rate minds have vigorously come out against it.  Yet, our Coast Guard leadership continues to promote it without discussion or debate. For an objective observer, that should be the first clue that something is very, very wrong. Supporters of this ideology are fond of the term ‘cultural competence,’ which they seem to believe is obtainable in a seminar or a classroom, but there are other paths to knowledge. For example, I enjoyed twenty-eight years in federal law enforcement, which, among other things, afforded me familiarity with the inside of a crack-house. Here are are some things I learned first-hand: (1) Underclass black America is indeed suffering unacceptable levels of violence and generational poverty; (2) Malcolm X was absolutely correct when he identified white liberals as an impediment to the progr...
