Kristi Noem Rejects Bill to Save Girls' Sports for Biological Girls After Intense Lobbying By... You Guessed It, Corporate Interests
The staunch conservative took issue with the wording of the legislation, alleging it left schools and team players vulnerable to lawsuits, and created "unworkable administrative burden[s] on schools" by forcing them to require yearly forms proving sex, age and lack of "performance-enhancing drugs." But most notably, she rejected their calls for bans at the collegiate level, telling lawmakers it could mean South Dakota athletes lose out in national tournaments, as the NCAA has inclusion policies for transgender student athletes. "While I certainly do not always agree with the actions these sanctioning bodies take, I understand that collegiate athletics requires such a system -- a fifty-state patchwork is not workable," she said. ... The state's House passed the bill in February with strong support in a 50-17 vote. But the Senate proved more divided with a 20-15 vote, falling short of the needed two-thirds majority to bypass the governor.
Apparently she's running for president of the socially-leftwing Chamber of Commerce, which is an absolute cancer on the conservative movement that must be excised and then burned to charcoal in a kiln.

@InezFeltscher What's happening in SD right now is that Gov Noem is allowing private interests to dictate the cultural & legal policy of the state, over strong majorities of actual voters. We need to stand up to woke corporate pressure & do it now,or girls' sports will not be the last casualty.
If Gov Noem is not a standard bearer who will do this, I guess it's better that we know now. Because the battle with woke capital will be a critical part of the political future -- if we have one. Trump was the first R since Reagan to push back against the cultural left. No one who doesn’t understand that should be in consideration for national office.
Jesse KellyExplanation?
@JesseKellyDC What happened with Kristi Noem is a great example of why you NEVER fall in love with a potential presidential candidate too early. In politics, there are a million ways you can take your candidacy out back and shoot it in the back of the head. As she just did.

67 SD is like Delaware. A state with about 18 residents people that has a bunch of global corps HQed there for tax purposes. In the case of SD its banking. SD has more banking assets than any other state. Or at least it did recently. What did you expect the governor would do when Corps said jump, other than ask how high?Break up the big banks. I have a simple way to do it: The government can reduce its guaranteed protection of customers' money if a bank gets larger than $X total dollars controlled. Right now a bank will cover $100,000 of your money if the bank loses it. But if a bank gets bigger than x dollars under management, the government says, we're scaling back the protection. Only up to $50,000 per customer if the bank is at Y size, only $25,000 per customer if the bank is at Z size. Etc. Customers will naturally want to move money out of these overly large banks. It doesn't involve any additional government entanglement, just a modification of a current entanglement that is never going away so stuff the "In an ideal world, the government wouldn't guarantee anyone's accounts..." I'm so tired of that dodge. WE DO NOT LIVE IN THIS "IDEAL WORLD" THAT CRANKS ARE ALWAYS NUTTERING ON ABOUT. WHEN WE ALL COLLECTIVELY MIGRATE TO THIS "IDEAL WORLD" ALTERNATE DIMENSION, THEN WE CAN TALK MORE ABOUT YOUR "IDEAL WORLD" PLANS AND SCHEMES.

106 >>>44 So she thinks that the bill is poorly written and wants it changed, and is exercising her primary option to try and force the legislature to do so, and this now makes her a traitor? The bill as-drafted has four (section), all not very long ones. Her "correction" entirely cuts 2 of 4 sections and edits the other two to exclude higher education. These changes are not just correcting grammar or clearing ambiguities.

Were the objections - to the administrative aspects, or the collegiate level - expressed as the bill moved through the legislature? Did the lower house version get changed in the senate?
If not, it looks very bad.
And it may be worse than just Noem under-performing.
It may be a substantial part of the state, enough to keep the senate approval margin down, who actually are afraid of the NCAA part. Do not underestimate how far the country has degraded.

I'm on the fence about this whole mess. If the legislature makes the requested changes and sends it back, then we'll see if she signs it. Honestly, I'm not as concerned about the college level stuff, since I think college sports is a corrupt cesspool anyways. Focus on getting something through that protects high schoolers.

Step 2) year one. File copy of birth certificate.

SD is like Delaware. A state with about 18 residents people that has a bunch of global corps HQed there for tax purposes. In the case of SD its banking. SD has more banking assets than any other state. Or at least it did recently.
What did you expect the governor would do when Corps said jump, other than ask how high?

You do know that was hotly disputed for several hundred years after Jesus' death, right? A bunch of religious scholars voting on the nature of God is about as doctrinally binding as the APA's vote on whether being transgender is crazy or not.

The NCAA only controls the sports of a college, not the college.
Akshually that's a pretty blurry line since the NCAA is made up of representatives of the kollidges. For example, Gene Smith, the athletic director of The Ohio State University who remarkably escaped penalty when the Sweater Vest was caught doing not legal things regarding how he ran his football program, gets dragged out on Final Four selection day to mutter something incomprehensible when it seems a school was unjustly included or excluded. But yes, it pretty much involves just athletics. Except Jerry Sandusky.

Too bad. She had the look and the presence. She just couldn't face standing up for what is right.
And she joins Nikki Haley on the female governors pile of failed Pres candidates.
Like Ace said: NEXT!
They will always reveal themselves. Which is why Trump is so loved. The left doesn't get it. Trump spoke and acted from the heart. Sure he was wrong sometimes or mistaken but he'd correct himself. The man could talk for hours without a teleprompter to remind him of what he was supposed to believe in.
That's comes from the heart!

bonhomme, Simple question.
Do you baptize "In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (or Ghost)?"
Any alteration invalidates it. It comes to us from the Apostles, who learned it from Jesus directly.
Having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

And it is all bullshit and the argument made when a sportsball team needs a new stadium. If we dont build it they will move and we lose all the economic activity.
Except guess what? You dont. Instead of spending money to attend sportsball games people will go to the movies or will play more golf or buy a new bike or whatever. And they will still go drink beer at bats. There is a finite amount of money people spend on entertainment. Take away ncaa options and they will spend it elsewhere. Its not like they all stay in the home all year long staring at the walls.

I am sure this is very true for some universities. But which ones, and why? It is like saying that if the donut shop did not give out handys and blowies with every dozen donuts, their business would drop off.
Maybe if those checks stopped, the schools would worry more about providing a useful education so that the graduates made a lot of money and felt grateful?

Not a Noem fan, not a critic.
But if the NCAA does not led SD teams compete against other teams across the board because of a few women's sports that are affected, that is a serious threat to those athletic programs.
Not saying this veto is right, it's just that there are more people's actual livelihoods in the balance than just the large corporate interests.
The Monolith is holding these people hostage, but no one will see it SD's way in the media. It will just be relentless demonizing of SD and exclusion from all necessary aspects of life.
These "woke" fuckers are goddamned mobsters.

It's worse than that-
If 2020 proved ANYTHING to the International Aristocratic Cabal, it's that you you do targeted things to get your desired outcome. What matters is crossing whatever numerical threshold is required to dictate or deny policy. Notice that in the five "swung" states, each strategy was different. They did their homework - first on how to do the steal itself, then how to cover up the steal to make away with their loot. This was a combination of intimidating (not necessarily bribing, though that happened to) the correct specific key lawyers, judges, and elected and appointed officials. You only have to go after the ones that matter.
And here, all they needed to do is pressure ONE governor and a couple of State Senators. And now that they know it's possible ONCE, now that they know it works, they will keep repeating what works (for them).

i disagree with her about the college side, but can understand how that's a different crutch considering i saw what the NCAA threat to NC was about the bathroom law a few years ago. but for minors, yeah, i think SD has the ability to really make a stand.
now, as someone else pointed out, idk how much input she had before this passed the house and senate, or how many changes got made between the proposal and passage, but we'll see IF the SD govt agrees to her changes and if she passes it then. that's the time to keep or cast off IMO.

now, as someone else pointed out, idk how much input she had before this passed the house and senate, or how many changes got made between the proposal and passage, but we'll see IF the SD govt agrees to her changes and if she passes it then. that's the time to keep or cast off IMO.

Sorry, the Fed Reserve and Sec Treasury under BUSH worked too hard to consolidate the banking industry.
They used the 2008 'economic crises' and the TARP bailouts to FORCE the sales of smaller banks, to larger institutions. It won't be undone.
Most don't understand that the Fed Res. CHAIRMAN is chosen by the Government, but the rest of the board is chosen by the stockholders, who by design, are the Banks. And that is IT just a Board, where the Chairman only has the same vote as anyone else sitting on the board.

They can, and reasonable minds can disagree about the effects of a bill or if it's the right way to achieve a common goal.
Personally, I think that fighting the trans stuff at the high school level is a much bigger issue than the college-level. Push through a narrower bill that focuses on that and then go back and deal separately with the college stuff.

Bull's eye. What is the function of a university, after all?
Harvard does OK (to put it mildly) with alumni donations, and they're athletic teams are crap. Something to ponder.
Yeah, Moo U gets donations for its athletic teams. Maybe if Moo U stepped up academically it would get donations for its academic standing instead.
Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at March 22, 2021 05:20 PM (YqDXo)

The very, very next call that Pence should have made was to Larry Ellison at Oracle. They have a similar CRM - similar enough so that Ellison would have moved heaven and earth to snag the business from Salesforce. Because he didn't have the smarts to at least make the call, he had to cave on RFRA.

This is an issue conservatives need to pop their head up and engage on.
Trump completely ignored it.
I'm amazed so many Republican officeholders could advocate something like "no abortion even in rape" and ignore an issue like this that would actually resonate with the general public.
I will say, the Left has really co opted corporate america to do their bidding. Conservatives should remember that the next time they bleat about a corporate tax cut.

Agree 100%.
Now, universities should have some PE facilities -- there's nothing wrong with that (except when they turn into multimillion-dollar spas rather than a few basketball hoops on asphalt). Kids do need exercise, and being a scholar doesn't always make it easy to get such.
But there's no "exercise" involved with sitting on your ass in bleachers, and that's the closest 99% of the students will ever come to the football team.

Corporations write the laws your representatives vote for without reading. They get told what's in the bills by the corporations.
Cooperations fund politicians with PACs and under the table money. Not to mention insider trading on stocks, sweet book deals and massive paid speaking engagements.
Cooperations give zero work jobs to politicians on K street so they can then either go back to Washington in their pockets or go lobby their peers.
Corporations control Washington DC and are directly responsible for every stupid thing you've seen coming out of DC, from Obamacare to COVID.

The notion that you need 100k stadiums and shit like tht for colleges is idiotic. You want sports? Great that is what professional leagues are for.

Now, universities should have some PE facilities -- there's nothing wrong with that (except when they turn into multimillion-dollar spas rather than a few basketball hoops on asphalt). Kids do need exercise, and being a scholar doesn't always make it easy to get such.
But there's no "exercise" involved with sitting on your ass in bleachers, and that's the closest 99% of the students will ever come to the football team.

Absolutely. We're 100% on the same page. Of course you need PE facilities, and good ones. Healthy mind in a healthy body, and all that.

Vesey, Kerfoot, Killorn. They really have quite a hockey team most years.
Point being - there are maybe 30 schools that really exist as big providers of football and basketball players to the pros. The rest make little or no money off college sports, but still provide them as something that makes the university life complete.

"Right now a bank will cover $100,000 of your money if the bank loses it."
I'm thinkin' this is $250K protection now, if we are talking about the FDIC thing. Raised it ? along with TARP and the other crap, where BigBank was given even more power, after screwing things up. ... (it is thought the FDIC insurance ins way underfunded for a real emergency, but that BigGov would just print enough confetti dollars to cover all claims.) ... or maybe I'm thinkin wrong, idk.

You get the root of the problem. Unfortunately, too many people bought the lemonade about laissez faire economics without understanding the context where it came from which was a state run economy under the French king.
People have rarely read Adam Smith's earlier work on moral philosophy and usually fail to get his caveats based on his earlier work in The Wealth of Nations as well.

FDIC was raised to $250k in 2009 or 2010.
But that is per bank so if you have $500k split in 3 banks you are really covered for $500k. Then again with 0% interest you have to be a fool to keep anything more than $1k in a bank account these days.

Right now a bank will cover $100,000 of your money if the bank loses it.
++++
If you are talking about FDIC insurance, where the (government-backed) insurance covers the money if the bank goes under, it is up to $250,000 these days. And, if you got a million you want insured, you can break it up into 4 accounts in 4 different banks and have the whole million covered.
But, your overall point is good.

People have rarely read Adam Smith's earlier work on moral philosophy and usually fail to get his caveats based on his earlier work in The Wealth of Nations as well.
Posted by: whig at March 22, 2021 05:38 PM (pO7gM)
Yup. Yup. Yup.
Now riddle me this. Are cooperations dictating morals to America or are they reflecting the morals of America? And if they are dictating those morals, is their moral code based on money to be made or saved or based on religion?
Let us determine from that why a cooperation would actively lobby to allow a man dressed like a woman force his way into women's sports and locker rooms when it has zero to do with economics.

In all these individual sports there needs to be one man, one who isn't even trying to show that he's pretending to be a woman, who goes and competes on the women's side, and either A)beats the tranny and then forfeits his subsequent matches, or just wins it all and then always walks over and places the gold medal around the neck of the 3rd place female.
He'll get a lot of shit and probably be vilified by national media, but he'll be the epitome of what a man should be, by stopping these men who want a government sanctioned way to abuse women.

BYU? One of my best friends was LDS. In the Summer of 1970, he was suggesting things. I was too dense and Catholic and heterosexual to "catch his drift."
No. I was more interested in the pretty girl that he had no interest in.
He did go the BYU. Never heard from him again. I found out later that he died early, about 40. His is on my prayer list. I have a big list. Faithful, apostates, heretics, Jews, and atheists.
I do want to see all of us together in Heaven one day.

Is there any strength to the concern about litigation though?
I'm not much in favor of using legislation to "send a message" if the law isn't going to be enforceable.
The state might be better off suing the feds over the stupid crap related to gender and sports that is getting stuck in federal laws.
Better to be the litigator than the litigatee.

Why do you think it is the schools responsibility to offer entertainment? There are plenty of outside options, and shouldn't students create their own clubs and organizations? This takes control out of the students, and gives it to the administrators to "program" it using professional recruited out of HS.
University life would be a lot more complete if IM sports were taken more seriously.

Been seeing a lot of money pouring into green ammonia processes.
This is in addition to all the other cercular and green processes.
What is the thermodynamic box of going all recyclable and all green, plus electric cars? It seems to me there is not enough Gibbs Free Energy to do all this stuff. It is thermodynamically impossible, IMHO.
But I am just a recovering organometallic chemist, so what do I know?

Second, I hold out CalTech and MIT as counter-examples. Some athletics, but not big time. That's even true of Berkeley. Yeah, Pac 12 and all that, but Berkeley is traditionally a doormat, and the students and alumni don't give a rat's ass about athletics.

Why can't they pass a Bill that simply says ' a person born a biological male cannot participate as a female in female designated sporting events. '
Because the law doesn't work that way. Often such "simple" language ends up with a bunch of unintended side-effects. It's somewhat like writing a program: you have to be very explicit in what you want the computer to do or else it will do exactly what you tell it and not what you intended.

No one will stop you from putting on a dress and calling yourself a woman.
But you have to compete in your own sports league. Nike can pay for it all they want.
And you have to use your own bathroom.
You cannot force your crazy on anyone else anymore than I can.

Do we have to proactively affirm that we're not breaking the law in other instances? Just say "can't do it" and let be until someone gets caught. They can't possibly be doing regular drug tests of high school students.

281 Alabama,
Corporations have the morals of the marketplace--e.g. if it is legal, then we can sell it, and if it is not legal, it should be legal so we can sell it.
In this case, chamber of commerce position is that Noem should veto the bill because it will make big corporate employees feel bad and might cause financial repercussions. But what they are really saying is that it is a new marketing opportunity to sell to a new market, polish our reps for the left, and for market segmentation.
Corporations have the morals of the marketplace--e.g. if it is legal, then we can sell it, and if it is not legal, it should be legal so we can sell it.

No one will stop you from putting on a dress and calling yourself a woman.

When I taught thermodynamics I used to use those letters as the basis for problems, viz., to identify the flaw in the argument. Almost all of the time, it's that the proposal isn't truly a cycle; they're starting their 100 yard dash on the 20 yard line.

The pull-quote risibly refers to Noem as a "staunch conservative" (one of Old Media's favorite idioms for right-of-center types, I guess because it's reminiscent of "stodgy" -- you never read of "staunch liberals").
Ace is right that things won't turn around until the GOP weens itself of its corporate-philia. It's time to stop supporting big (crony) business and go back to supporting free enterprise, which is often the opposite.
Any business with more than 50 employees should be just as suspect as a federal bureau. Small and local are beautiful and emotionally resonant with most Americans, big and global is butt-ugly (and loved by loveless leftists).

I think that girls should stop relying on the government to save them from these insane people who should be receiving medical treatment for their gender dysphoria. They just should not compete. They should walk out on the track and sit down. It is unfair competition. They are not little kids. They can make their voices and opinions heard. I think it is embarassing that they are just accepting this.

Bears repeating -- if you are out in public, know what is around you. Find exits. Don't always look for doors. Windows work too (a lot of people overlook that). If you have to fight, look for weapons. In a grocery store -- get behind the meat counter where there are knives. Look for fire extinguishers. Near the housegoods aisle? Get wasp spray. Stay in the fight.

The only way we're gonna get large-scale electric cars without any of that EEEEVIL CARBON DIOXIDE is by building fucktons of nukes.
Now, we could certainly do that (and in fact we probably SHOULD do that), but that's not something your typical greenie is ever going to accept.

Grudge Harbor, then they deserve what they get. Just wait til it starts with tennis and golf and basketball and swimming etc. This will be the end of women's sports. There will never be a record broken by a biologic woman. It is just ridiculous that feminists who were all about equality for women are silent on this.

Basically there are going to be two sports divisions from now on:
1) men's sports
2) tranny sports.
I expect a substantial portion of the second group won't be actual crazoid trannies, but just cynical and calculating men who aren't quite good enough to make the men's teams, but still want those sweet, sweet athletic scholarships.
I mean, "trans-lesbian" is a thing, right? So you can believe you're a woman trapped in a man's body, but you still want to have sex with women? Don't attempt to dictate my gender, haters!

I think it's just early in the cycle. One of the unfortunate consequences of postponing the Summer Olympics last year was that it would have taken this trans-issue front and center of people's attention. It's hard to ignore trans-folks winning Olympic medals on world TV. It could very well have gotten Trump re-elected. For now it's just a few isolated cases and, let's be honest, few care about woman's sports outside of the Olympics. When it becomes an international story too big to ignore, let's see what happens then.

Another person lying on the ground a few feet from another vehicle (looks like the running lights may be on). That vehicle is on the sidewalk at the bottom of a wheelchair ramp. Person is at the very base of the ramp next to the guardrail.

396: One advantage we will have with the Summer Olympics pushed to this year is that we will have roughly six months-1 year of intensive Olympic coverage, the way it used to be when both Olympics were held in the same year (as it was from 1924-1992). So such issues will be kept front and center for awhile.

Ace, although you didn't necessarily have to boldface all 5 lines of it to convey the point, you are correct. The libertoids have preached that the "government can't pick the winners." If they really believed that, they wouldn't support the same protections & kickbacks for the 2020s monopoly men. The fact is, Jeff Bezos got rich off taxpayer money (DOD's other divisions not involved in maternity jet flight). Arguably, Google and Apple ran the same scam on education spending.
Our policies are over time going to be on the side of one interest group or another, it is childish to pretend otherwise. Intelligent statecraft would prioritize policies in the interest of the largest number of citizens, not the fewest, cleverest, "most efficient" ones who are endowed with inalienable rights by Ayn Rand and Robert Heinlein. The child-mind libertoids can't get a grip on this, they are consumed with zombie laissez-faire cosplay from an age of industrial capitalism, as opposed to the financialized/rentier economy we have today.

I was keen to hear Gov. Noem's defense on Tucker Carlson this evening. I want(ed) to like her. Her explanation struck me as lame. I get that she wants to form a coalition to oppose the NCAA. But why must that precede the legislation? And how would the legislation make it harder for girls to compete? Gov. Noem's answer seemed to involve some handwaving about how the state would have to sue the NCAA, and would probably lose.
Maybe she has a good reason for her action. I couldn't make it out from what she said tonight. If I'm not alone, this was a major missed opportunity.
