      Even in an era of political hardball, the NC GOP legislature using the absence of Democrats attending a 9/11 memorial to override a budget veto is outrageous.https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/shame-you-north-carolina-gop-votes-override-veto-while-democrats-n1052466 …

      Here is some pushback on that story (which I'd waited most of the day to see reported by a mainstream news org)https://twitter.com/RaleighReporter/status/1171893311537180672 …

      So much misinformation going around the #ncga today: -Only one Democratic House member has been confirmed as attending a 9/11 event during the override vote -Text message exchange included in a WRAL story (but reposted elsewhere without link) is between a reporter and Rep. Lewis

      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Sister Toldjah  😁

      Some useful context here, but for all the local & national outlets reporting on this story, not one has actually pinned down whether the one Democrat known to be absent at a 9/11 event was the only one:https://twitter.com/sistertoldjah/status/1172208146976321537 …

          Two things: 1. I'm not sure it's accurate to say that an afternoon WaPo report was what triggered a story a Slate writer was pushing all morning. 2. NC GOP doesn't know how to do communications. I saw zero pushback all day from typically sympathetic outlets.

          At this point, the confirmed reporting shows that @mjs_DC had the facts wrong about it being more than one legislator (one reason I didn't react to this story when it first circulated): https://hotair.com/archives/ed-morrissey/2019/09/12/wapo-clarification-second-thought-maybe-nc-gop-didnt-exploit-9-11-memorial-override-cooper-veto/ …pic.twitter.com/i6Lh5AYjeU

          Also this means @ChazBeasley flat-out lied about this, unless he's prepared to come forward with proof the News & Observer report was wrong.

          It does seem that the people on the left side of the aisle who were yelling from the rooftops about the NC GOP story yesterday have now gone....awfully quiet about it.

          Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Mark Joseph Stern

          I see Stern & Beazley are still at odds with the News & Observer report that only one NC Dem legislator was out at a 9/11 event.https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1171895279152455683 …

          I talked to @ChazBeasley about North Carolina Republicans' decision to hold a surprise vote overriding the governor's budget veto while the governor was speaking a a state ceremony commemorating 9/11. (The GOP's goal: blocking Medicaid expansion.) https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/09/north-carolina-republicans-chaz-beasley-interview.html … @Slate pic.twitter.com/R3t4gYzCjs
