IFF: Connecting disturbing dots

| February 18, 2024 1:00 AM

In showing the Idaho Freedom Foundation’s position on fentanyl pushers, it exposes the IFF as the fake conservative entity it is, in my opinion.

Why the IFF antagonism to punishing drug dealers?

Follow the money.

The Idaho Freedom Foundation is the Idaho affiliate of the State Policy Network (SPN).

The SPN is a national Libertarian-based organization that is financed by Big Pharma, Big Tech and other large multinational corporations and wealthy foundations. Look them up.

Big Pharma, if one doesn’t know, makes billions out of the fentanyl crisis. No crisis, no profit. For example, see the latest drug to help fentanyl overdoses at 50 bucks a pop: Narcan.

By the way, the SPN also pushes for the reduction of public services and for privatizing schools. Looking at the NIC and CLN debacles happening, one can make the logical inference that there is a move to destroy NIC as a public school and privatize it.

Regarding the Community Library Network, the project there is to reduce CLN’s ability to inexpensively acquire books in print or electronic form for the public.

Amazon and other large multinational book publishers do not want public libraries affecting their enormous profits in e-books.

See the initiative being championed by the American Library Association to keep access available to public libraries to these materials. But the troika of CLN trustees want to end CLN’s association with the ALA. Gee, I wonder why.
