It's such a sh*tshow. People who could easily brief the president himself, went to Nunez, who then held a press conference and then Trump said Nunez had the goods.

Were you the one brave soul going to Breitbart after the whole AHCA debacle and reporting that their comment section blamed Ryan for this and supported the freedom caucus?

If so, it would be great to get an update on the comments section now that their daddy is railing against those "true patriots".

There were some bathroom provisions in HB2 that are in fact being repealed, no?

Trump has come out with attacks saying the Freedom Caucus better get on board. If RyanCare had passed,Trump would have been roasted by the American voters who had elected him That is because of their of less than 50% approval of the bill, It would have been a blessing to the democrats who would had exposed the new bill as even worse than Obamacare.and guaranteed that Trump would have been handicapped for the rest of his term and not even serious for a second term. This will be a definite deciding point in Trump's presidency.

Every one understands that but TRUMP and for some reason he will or does not want to see that. That is the result of having to many RINOGOPe around him and they keeping telling him the FC and Conservatives are against him. It is his choice and when or if he blows it all he has to do is look at himself and those around him. Hell, he still thinks RYAN is his friend?

I wouldn't go as far as calling him a demokrat, but it's pretty clear that Trump is backing the wrong horse in this race.

So Trump is now sucking face with Ryan, his sworn enemy, and telling the Freedom Caucus to go pound sand?

Wrong move Trump.

If we wanted "Obama part deux" we would have voted for Hillary or Jeb.

The bill does repeal HB2, but it just replaces it with prohibitions on local government entities (including cities, towns, schools) from extending legal protections to LGBT people until 2020 and bans on protections for transgender individuals in restrooms and other single-sex spaces forever. The bill makes it illegal to protect people from discrimination. And worse still, it does so under a claimed interest in protecting “bathroom safety and privacy.”

No matter how many times these lies are restated, they will never be true. Letting trans people use the restroom as we must and have always done harms no one. Our bodies do not make others unsafe. We do not infringe on the privacy rights of others by existing in the world.

Haven't seen more than a few clips of hearing today so far but have seen enough to know I can look forward to a nice Twitter rant later.

I doubt that there was actual collusion between Russia and Trump people because Russia didn't need them and because they would have been worried that the Americans would have exposed them in spite of their desire to elect Trump. And they would have been right since many Trump supporters would in fact have snitched, not because they were patriotic but because they wouldn't want to risk jail.

Given how much I've read about this from both angles, I think the text of the actual law would be helpful:

Quote:

11 State agencies, boards, offices, departments, institutions, branches of government, including
12 The University of North Carolina and the North Carolina Community College System, and
13 political subdivisions of the State, including local boards of education, are preempted from
14 regulation of access to multiple occupancy restrooms, showers, or changing facilities, except in
15 accordance with an act of the General Assembly.
16 SECTION 3. No local government in this State may enact or amend an ordinance
17 regulating private employment practices or regulating public accommodations.

Anyway, I wonder if the NCAA can step in and save us by saying "this doesn't make us happy" since I imagine they're the biggest reason why conservatives are willing to budge on this in the first place.

just a coincidence that Trump's people talked with the hackers and knew about the hacked material before it came out
