The states are not slaves to the federal bureaucracy.
I agree. I guess this will be a test of the old saying: “You can’t beat city hall”.
The Feds will win as they always do. Unless the people take control.
Finally! Someone with a backbone! IF they stick to their guns, cite the 10th Amendment and don’t cave.
Whenever the federal government threatens to withhold federal aid to a state, that state’s governor should threaten to instruct the people and companies of that state to pay their federal income taxes to that state’s revenue department instead of the federal IRS.
The Governor is telling My N*gga I’ve also got a pen and a phone...
“The Republicans in NC wont act when the deadline passes, but left open the door to caving in later.”
As Benjamin Franklin said at the signing of the Declaration of Independence: “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”
Where are the other states with respect to standing with North Carolina against tyranny? Yes, Obama knows NC will likely cave if the other states don’t weigh in. The time to stand is now. So far 49 states are sitting.
Well we know where Alabama and the great Judge Roy Moore stand on this liberal nonsense. There will be no drag queens in female bathrooms in the state of Alabama.
AFAIK. The DOJ’s authority does not extend to changing the common dictionary and common definition of sex when used to mean male or female of a species. It would be up to the legislature to change Title VII to include gender identity. Plus these federal hypocrites are all on the bandwagon that sex and gender identity can be independent of each other. Now they use their bully clubs to insist the two words mean the same thing.
The DOJ is charged with implementing the law as it is written. Not as they wish it was written. That is the point NC and their supporters in congress need to make. For a law to be at the whim of potentates is a sure sign of tyranny. Why do so many let that pass?
The states _must_ defy DC. They are our only hope in the governmental realm. Although we continue to play the political party game, this is so surely at the end, especially since they allow SCOTUS to decide every issue of law between the three branches of USG. What a laugh that is.
The Obama administration contends that the law violates the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and its finding could push the federal government to withhold in federal aid.
Why don’t they do something useful, like CHARGE THEM CRIMINALLY for this Blatant, Admitted, Felonious Attempted EXTORTION> Issue a Warrant SIGNED by the Governor, and let a STATE JURY decide if these DOJ Personnel Violated any Laws in their quest for domination.
