DeWine, a Republican, announced his veto at a news conference on Friday morning. He said he visited several children's hospitals and spoke with parents and transgender children to help inform his decision.
"Parents have looked me in the eye and have told me, that but for this treatment, their child would be dead," DeWine told reporters. "Ultimately I think this is about protecting human life."
Why did they pick that photo lol?
Chud media tried the "raised fist = literally Hitler" thing back when Biden did his speech with the red backdrop so they might be trying to subtly imply that sort of thing. Probably not though, maybe it was just the photographer's first assignment.
Conservatives love big black balls
Important context, Mike Dewine is actually the size of a lil' marionette doll. The photographer didn't have much to work with here, even though DeWine was probably standing on a stack of phone books.
