The jig is up on activists' fake claims

This was seen in a recent Facebook reaction to the WBCSD board’s decision to hire Branden Durst: “We need to ask for HELP! Idaho Moms and Bonner Dems”

If you didn’t already know who was running the West Bonner County school board before the new conservatives were elected, who was consistently failing the children while digging ever deeper into their parents’ pockets for pay raises, who was backing CRT-derived curriculum choices for the district’s youngest, now you know.

Just like when Ms. Scott ran for school board last year, we should be asking ourselves why some folks never publicly admit who is really backing their activism “for the kids.” The answer is obvious. West Bonner County is the very conservative half of a very conservative county and some don’t want us to know that they don’t actually share conservative values. Some have calculated that it’s better to keep silent about who backs whom and claim that the true conservatives are the “outsiders.” If you are unsure who is behind these groups and others like “Good Government Watchdogs” go to the state sunshine report site and see who they support and who supports them. The jig is up.
