This is some much needed good news to read. 💜

I know Terri's life has been completely uprooted because of all of this and so I wish her the best as she moves forward.

    That doesn't feel like a lot of money but public library directors aren't paid very well so that's likely more than 10 years of salary.

    $700k, hell even $700M won't bankrupt them. The worst parts of society are funded by the people with the most money.

    And the people with the money orchestrating this culture war won't be paying a dime of that. Campbell County taxpayers will.

    ETA: I'm not arguing against the settlement. I'm arguing against the billionaires that FA but never have to FO.
