North Carolina is running up against a Monday deadline – set by the Obama administration – to either scrap the state's controversial transgender bathroom law or face legal action and risk losing federal funds.
Meanwhile... Sanctuary Cities in blatant violation of federal law continue to get all the money they want.
I'm getting off track here, hate to say this, but have you noticed how Democrats deliver for their constituents? The Obama administration is set to win yet another in NC. I guarantee it. The House and Senate is in our control. How did we benefit taking control of Congress? Name me one f**king thing of consequence these two bastards ever accomplished?
Did they stop funding for Sanctuary Cities like they said? Did they put a stop to Barry's deficit spending, the crushing national debt? They were outraged over the PP videos and threatened to defund them. What happened? They funded PP!
In fact, the guy who shot the video is being prosecuted!!!
Hey NC if you're relying upon Republicans for help let me introduce you to what's cumming to a commode near you... the one next to your daughter.
"She'll" probably sue because there's no urinal fixed to the wall in the ladies room. Loretta Lynch will liken it to a glaring violation of "her" civil rights.
Republican Gov. Pat McCrory, who told "Fox News Sunday" he will make a decision by the end of the day, said the issue goes well beyond North Carolina now that the Justice Department is getting involved.
But he would not say what his decision will be when repeatedly pressed for an answer, saying only that he's exploring "all legal options."
One option could be a court challenge.
The state law requires transgender people to use bathrooms that correspond with the sex on their birth certificate. McCrory says the North Carolina law applies only to government offices, universities, and road-side rest stops, not every bathroom in the state.
The Justice Department, though, sent McCrory a letter Wednesday stating the law violates federal civil rights laws.
The governor said he asked the department for an extension and was given only until the close of business Monday.
"I don't think that three working days is enough time for such a pretty big threat," he told Fox News. "It's the federal government being a bully, making law."
McCrory also said he doesn't have the legal authority to change laws and that the expectation that he can is "unrealistic."
McCrory, who signed the bill into law in March, said last week that the department seems to be breaking new ground in claiming the North Carolina law violates Civil Rights Act protections against discrimination in education and the workplace.
And he said the administration's warning means the issue is no longer confined to North Carolina.
"This is not just North Carolina," said McCrory, arguing that every university that accepts federal funding is now in the same situation as those in his state.
Meanwhile, the administration is expected to soon take the bathroom issue further, to ensure that transgender student rights are fully protected under federal law, according to Politico. The move reportedly would be related to a federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in federally funded education programs and activities, and multiple agencies are expected to be involved.
