The North Carolina Legislature voted Wednesday to override Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper’s veto against three bills that would ban gender-affirming health care for transgender minors, prevent transgender women and girls from competing on female sports teams and limit classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity.

Cooper vetoed all three bills last month, writing in the veto message that “Republicans are serving up a triple threat of political culture wars.”

I dunno how anyone from the southeast US expects politics to be different at this point. Deception is kind of a prerequisite down there.

    Who said anything about expectations? Just because you don't care about injustice in the South doesn't mean the rest of us have to follow along with your cynicism.

    I never said I didn’t care.

    I said, corruption and deception in politics is common in the GOP down south.

    I said, I am surprised they didn’t see this coming.

    You’re arguing with the wrong person.
