Nikki Haley Heads Back To Washington, D.C.

S.C. GOVERNOR’S NATIONAL ITINERARY RAMPS UP AGAIN

S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley isn’t wasting any time getting back into the swing of promoting herself on the national stage.

The part-time Palmetto State chief executive – whose cross-country itinerary was delayed for a few weeks by a massive security breach at one of her cabinet agencies – has resumed her political travel with a vengeance.

As reported exclusively by FITS, Haley is at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Chicago, Illinois this week given the keynote address at a luncheon sponsored by the Heritage Foundation.  Later this week she will travel to Washington, D.C. to give a speech to the Republican Governors’ Association.

We know what these speeches will do for Haley … but what will they do for South Carolina?

That’s a good question …

In related news, it was revealed that a pair of international trips taken by Haley earlier this year – including one which took place during the recent S.C. Department of Revenue (SCDOR) security breach – cost taxpayers an estimated $134,000.  Haley traveled to England in July and Tokyo in September on “economic development” missions.

Haley’s September trip took place several weeks after hackers began infiltrating her agency’s computer network – making off with 3.8 Social Security numbers, 3.3 million bank account numbers, tax info for more than 650,000 businesses and nearly 400,000 credit and debit card numbers.
