Haley spars with Republican rivals at 3rd primary debate as Trump still looms

Ramaswamy is being very pointed out of the gate, and it’s a bit of a risky strategy -- he could be seen as more of a bully and it could increase negative perceptions of him. That has already happened to him in one debate so far this year. He came off strong in the first debate, too, and his unfavorable rating increased from 13% to 32% after it, according to a poll by 538/Washington Post/Ipsos.

Trump ally Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., shared information in June she said she read in an FBI form about a bribery allegation involving Joe Biden, then vice president, his son Hunter and a Ukrainian energy executive.

The FBI filled out the form, known as an FD-1023, in June 2020 after hearing allegations from an informant. The FBI has said such forms contain unverified information. Multiple news outlets have reported that law enforcement have been unable to substantiate the allegations.

Haley punched back at Ramaswamy after he compared her to former Vice President Dick Cheney "in three-inch heels."

“We had Floridians that were over there after the attack,” DeSantis said. “He left them stranded they couldn't get flights out.”

That’s at odds with official State Department reports.

Reuters reported on Oct. 16 that the State Department had offered more than 4,000 seats on government-chartered transport to U.S. citizens and their immediate family. CNN put the figure higher, at nearly 5,000 seats. But both outlets reported that many of those transports left less than half full, the government said.
