Republican presidential candidate former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley speaks

What’s new on the campaign trail

OK, that hurts! In a new ad airing in Iowa, Nikki Haley says “Congress is the most exclusive nursing home in America.” Tell that to the 26-year-old Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.), 34-year-old Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) or 39-year-old House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik.

The spot also says President Joe Biden is too old – he’s 81.

News: The Congressional Hispanic Caucus BOLD PAC is endorsing former Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.) in the special election to fill former Rep. George Santos’ (R-N.Y.) seat. Check out the full endorsement here.

Also: Vote Vets Action Fund has a new ad blaming Senate Republicans for holding up aid to Ukraine. The spot, which is running here in D.C., says Republicans are holding up cash for Kyiv “just to push Trump’s anti-immigrant wish list.” And the commercial also says that U.S. troops could end up fighting the war in Ukraine. Here’s the ad.
