Remarkably, a party that controls just the United States House of Representatives is able to drive the conversation in America today. I realize the GOP controls a lot of states too, but that control is anathema to the press and dismissed by so much of the political establishment that views Washington as the only relevant power center.
Re: "North Carolina Governor declares a state of emergency because Republicans passed school choice reforms": Don't believe for one second that people who clearly hate you want the best for your kids. They just want your kids, period.
We started to veer away from Target when they started introducing all the trans clothing and so many of the children's books were about same-sex relationships. It's insidious. It makes me angry, because I enjoyed shopping at Target far more than Walmart. I was also interested in the LA Dodgers' waffling back-and-forth on spotlighting The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, an LGBTQ+ group that claims to minister to "those on the fringes" and whose tag line is "Go Forth and Sin Some More!" The Dodgers have caved and re-issued the invitation to the group. I have to wonder why Catholics have not uniformly denounced the support of this organization, that blatantly mocks the institution of women who take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. It forces me to ask a question that seems to have no reasonable answer: WHY would an organization risk offending a very large base in order to cater to a loud and very small minority? It makes no sense. It's hard to take someone's "mission" seriously when they walk around with a name such as Sister Marquesa de Sade or Father Fellatio.
Eric - Does this mean that you were okay with Target before this even thought they will not back off of their policy of allowing males identifying as female into the female bathrooms and dressing rooms?
I do most of my shopping online and sometimes buy items from Target. This will no longer be happening because using a satanist for a pride collection is a bridge too far for me. As far as Roy Cooper, he has been loud and active--and frustrated--since the GOP gained the supermajority in the state. I think he is also possibly auditioning for his next job.
Note that the chief "priest" of this bunch proclaims, from his black-walled basement room, that these folks are not about challenging religion, merely speaking out for free speech. Yep.
We stopped shopping at Target when they caved to the "I'm a man but think I'm a woman so let me use the women's restrooms" crowd. In the last few days they debuted 'tuck friendly' swimwear for shemales to make it easier for them to hide their gentialia. Now this?
Admittedly we're still very early in the game, but McCarthy has proven a pleasant surprise. He's wrangled votes and shoved it up Biden's tailpipe a couple of times now, so I have to give well-deserved kudos to his leadership thus far. His gamesmanship is a far cry - the polar opposite, in fact - from that of John "We can't accomplish anything because we only control the House" Boehner during the first Obama administration. What a joke that DB was!
About DeSantis: He likely sees Trump unbeatable as the nominee and the Democrat machine as re-electing President Geezer. This gets rid of Trump. DeSantis is 44 years old and building a great reputation in Florida. He knows that Biden is strapped to the unelectable Harris. He has a choice: He can run now and risk a lot of the political capital he has built or he can bide his time, build an even better base and have a stronger chance of becoming president when he turns 50. Finally, his ultimate goal is to defeat the woke left. Given all this if you were him what would your decision be?
I used to enjoy shopping at Target when I lived in Midtown Atlanta. There was not a Walmart anywhere close to the city. Target was always very clean. The displays were appealing and organized. The Chinese goods they sold were a little bit better quality than the Walmart China goods. Now I live out in the country over 100 miles from the city. Walmart is the only big box store around. Given Target's embrace of wokism over the past decade or so.....I do not miss shopping there.
Conservatives are mobilizing the institutions they control to fight back in the culture war and having success. I don't think this is because we've rejected Reaganism for post-liberalism, but I think this reflects the old conflict in the GOP between the grass roots and an establishment backed by the Chamber of Commerce. Exhibit A is how other candidates in the primary react to DeSantis's feud with Disney. It's notable that the Trump team is allying with the Chamber of Commerce which is siding with Disney. Forgotten is that Disney's bone of contention with DeSantis is that the latter passed a bill keeping educators from teaching about LGBT sexuality to elementary schoolers. We can fight back and win but nothing will change if we follow the Trump/Chamber of Commerce playbook of just going along with corporate wokeness. Conservatives should boycott Target and any other corporation that embraces this ESG crap.
all gays are essentially satanists. They openly flaunt their sin and force you to accept it as normal. I get that everyone sins. But only those who are evil in their hearts or have it in their hearts blatantly defy the word of god and equally stomp on its very word.
Problem is allot of churches are turning to these satanic rituals. Allowing gay Marta and flaunting that they accept their ways.
But yet this was predicted.l that evil will gain favor and the righteous shall be condemned.
Every retailer buys from weirdos like this fella, you just happen to know about this one. Good luck with Target, your boycott is the advertising they need. Remember, ALL the big retailers were allowed to stay open as “essential” while small business retailers were forced to close. When did you ever stop shopping because of that? Satan has been on overtime and you just now want to complain?
You want to have an impact? Contact targets suppliers, tell THEM, you won’t buy their products because of target.
The owner is a “gay trans man” who celebrates Satan.
Sounds like the pitch for the next big Netflix show.
If you are gay and trans, what does that mean?
Bio-female > Tran male > Likes boys or girls?
Meanwhile in Canada, the federal government has started talking about "pride season". Basically all summer long. https://www.statcan.gc.ca/o1/en/plus/1205-welcome-pride-season

My family wrote off Target a couple of years ago.

In the Midwest (Michigan, Ohio, Indiana) we have Meijer. Not totally conservative, but much more so than Target. Nice stores, too.
I have heard comments that individual boycotts don’t work. Guess youd have to check with AB about that. As for Target, i am done shopping there.

I'm glad we were ahead of the curve.

“Target is working with a gay satan worshiper..”
