Nikki Haley: “If Russia had lived up to its commitment, there would be no chemical weapons in Syria, and we would not be here today.”

From Wikipedia: Nimrata "Nikki" Haley (nΓ©e Randhawa, born January 20, 1972 is the 29th and current United States Ambassador to the United Nations. She served as the 116th governor of South Carolina and is a former member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. Haley was the first female governor of South Carolina and the second Indian-American, after fellow Republican Bobby Jindal, to serve as a governor in the United States.

During the 2012 presidential campaign, Republican nominee Mitt Romney considered Haley as a potential vice presidential running mate, though Haley said that she would turn down any offer due to her position as governor. She delivered the official Republican response to President Barack Obama's 2016 State of the Union Address on January 12, 2016. On November 23, 2016, President-elect Donald Trump nominated Haley for the position of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, which Haley accepted. Haley was confirmed by the Senate in a 96–4 vote and was subsequently sworn in on January 25, 2017. In 2016, Haley was named among "The 100 Most Influential People" by Time magazine....

New UN Human Rights Council members have history of human rights violations



Doc Thompson lays out the new members of the UN’s Human Rights Council, and some of the names on the list are quite shocking given their poor human rights records.

For example, incoming member Burundi is in a the midst of a human rights crisis, according to Human Rights Watch. Furthermore, Saudia Arabia and Cuba, two of the other new council members, have been named by watchdog group Freedom House as among the 20 worst countries in the world in terms of human rights abuses.

“The worst 20, they said Cuba and Saudi Arabia. And they are on the Human Rights Council!” Doc exclaims. “They’re doing it wrong. They really are doing it wrong.”

Doc jokingly offers an explanation for this bizarre move: “Maybe if we put them on the council, then they’ll be like, ‘Oh, we’ve been doing it wrong. Oh, I’m really embarrassed that we haven’t been doing this. We’re going to change our act right away.'”
