NIC: Threat was real

| February 17, 2023 1:00 AM

I agree with a recent column that you have to look at what people do, not what they say to see who they really are. It echoes an old adage “By their fruit will you know them.” It seems around election time last year there was some talk about the threat to NIC’s accreditation being “Fake News,” a “scare tactic.” That “None of that’s going to happen. That was never really an issue. That was a campaign threat.” Well, now we find out it was real, and the very people who were downplaying it are close to bringing it to fruition. They have shown themselves for who they are. Are they the ones you want to lead in Kootenai County?
