PIERRE, S.D. -- South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem on Monday killed a bill that would have banned transgender women and girls from female sports, then later issued weaker executive orders that include restrictions but which conservatives decried as political face-saving.
Lawmakers in more than 20 states have introduced similar bans this year, with Republican governors in three states -- Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi -- signing them into law. A federal court blocked a similar law in Idaho last year.
Noem's partial veto of the bill riled GOP lawmakers and tarnished the Republican governor's status among social conservatives. Shortly after the bill died, the governor, who has emerged as a prominent national figure in the GOP, issued two executive orders for a ban, but Republican lawmakers said the orders amounted to little more than an effort to salvage her reputation with conservatives.

Sorry bub, she’s very stupid to tell that awful story and you’re just as stupid to be ok with it.
You can not run the country with experience leading a couple hundred thousand people. She isn’t qualified when cities have more people. It’s too easy to run that state. Doesn’t matter. She’s done.
Caving to Corporate Donors on a transgender bill is a lot more important than shooting some stupid dog.
Train wreck
How many people did Trump “lead” as a politician before getting elected?
Your faction here doesn’t like her. We get it.
But, can you at least try to be SMART and/or logical about it?
Y’know, Hitler killed his dogs, too!
Just going to cut-n-paste this every time it shows up...
Politician writes several books.
Liberal media finds ONE paragraph to exploit. Repeats endlessly.
Mass of people who don’t really care repeat endlessly.
What actually happened and why no longer matters.
Dogs who turn aggressive and have a bite history will be rejected by most shelters and cannot be retrained or re-homed.
Of course, FR’s own “We hate Noem” club won’t care either. Any rumor or innuendo they can use again her, they will repeat like a bunch of dyspeptic harbor seals.
Does she have issues as a politician? Yes. Is this one of them? No.
“Same exact nonsense she did years ago with the NCAA“
This IS what she did years ago. This article is from 2021.
lol. Comparing trump to her? She can’t even run a lemonade stand. Please get over yourself. Yes she is hot. She looks good. You don’t need to tell us that’s your reason you fawn all over her. We know.
Not posted here at free Republic.
And totally relevant given she’s a possible VP candidate.
Not my type actually... I like leggy redheads.
Is there ANYTHING you get right? Like maybe on some other topic? Maybe Bridge or 500? Card collecting?
Because you SUCK at this... It’s almost like you deliberately make dumb statements just to be annoying.
It was not posted and she’s a VP candidate potential.
It’s totally relevant
You are asking these young girls to suspend their dreams en masse that they spent years training for. It sucks and unfortunately it is the only thing that is going to stop this BS.
I never forgot.
She never said it was a crap bill and those local SD yokels are being floated as a potential VP - she is, other than that I have no interests in SD politics.
Go watch her do her mental gymnastics explaining why she vetoed the bill.
It was posted. 3 years ago...
And a few times since then re-hashing the same links, lies, and BS over and over again...
No denying her history is relevant. But how many posters read the title and immediately think this is current events? Must be some better way to draw attention to old news.
Trying to salvage her SD career.
Imagine that.
