I never expected this from local news, especially in Idaho, but it was a thoughtful, well done piece of reporting.

They could have got the school district's POV, but the district didn't want to speak.

They just want to ensure that kids don't feel welcome, apparently.

With the school district administration. Have them come to the school and indicate which children don't belong.

The administration has no intention of standing up for them. Those kids and teachers are on their own

that it's pure racism that is driving this stalemate. it's heartening to know how many people in the community are opposed to racism and extremely unfortunate that TCFSF has made racism the law of the land, and so many magats are all on board for that.

I noticed them last week. much like the ones in the picture. They were washed off in a couple of days.

Now I wonder if there was a connection.

I'd be tickled pink to find out there are liberal young activists in this little MAGA town.

We need to shame Republicans for their anti-Christian behavior.
