Target continues to circle the bowl as more stuff about them floats to the top

The "Twig and Berries" model by Target

So now it isn't just about plunging stock values as Target has already lost $13 billion in market value. As of Friday morning, they were at 131.23 and were losing faster than Lia Thomas finished ahead of the women in the pool.  Now they're at around 130.20 and they deserve it.

But even more deserved by them is that they received another downgrade.

KeyBanc Capital Markets, yesterday [Monday], cut the retailer’s shares to “sector weight” from “overweight” as the resumption of student loan payments stipulated by Congress’ debt ceiling agreement poses a sizable headwind for discretionary spending for shoppers.

Add that to the downgrade Target got from JP Morgan, which may cause the share loss to worsen, and you know they’re circling the bowl.

In this new climate of politicalization of everything from beer to nuts, where companies feel obligated to throw in their woke two cents, it has made consumers cognizant of everything they buy, every sport they support, and everything they do. 

The country is divided and there's no doubt about it. The Biden administration claimed to be uniting the country while covertly dividing us. 

This guy has a lot of, you know, the thing

The morons at Target, for example, have funded the NDN Collective, an anti-America, communist organization fighting against Mount Rushmore, which they term "white supremacy." They have a campaign “LANDBACK” that calls for America to give up its public land.

“The closure of Mount Rushmore, return of that land and all public lands in the Black Hills, South Dakota is our cornerstone battle,” the cretins of NDN said. “Not only does Mount Rushmore sit in the heart of the sacred Black Hills, but it is an international symbol of White supremacy and colonization. To truly dismantle white supremacy and systems of oppression, we have to go back to the roots. Which, for us, is putting Indigenous Lands back in Indigenous hands.”

NDN also hates the U.S. military and falsely claim that "[T]he U.S. military is in the explicit business of taking land away from communities all around the world and using their presence on their land to carry out their own agenda for the inhabitants of that area. Violence is fundamental for the U.S. to maintain its presence, and the military is how they establish dominance domestically and internationally, wherever they may be."

Did the U.S. military take any lands away from Germany or Japan after WWII? We are not perfect and we are not angels, but in all the world's history, nations have conquered other nations and the spoils of war have been a fact for millennia. 

They also hold a warped view of American history, which they used to taint the military now.

“The origin of the U.S. military and police is rooted in the establishment of informal militias composed of newly arrived settlers looking to make money and own land,” NDN said “The purpose of these informal militias however was not to keep the police or protect citizens, but to clear the land of as many Natives as possible by killing indiscriminately, and catching runaway enslaved Africans,” [who were made slaves by their black African brethren, and used by the Dixiecrat South].

Fox News asked Target officials why it supports an organization like this while also claiming to support veterans in its corporate announcements. Neither Target nor NDN responded to Fox’s inquiries immediately, nor did other media carry the story in order to protect their agenda with the LGBTQ+1 community of fascists.

Target didn't take a deeper market dive on Monday when the market opened, but stay tuned as more loss is likely to come.

Meanwhile, Bud Light is falling faster than Joe Biden on a staircase.

Biden-Harris administration denies Mount Rushmore 4th of July fireworks in "partisan and political" move:Gov Noem

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem took the Biden administration to task for denying permits that would permit the state to host 4th of July fireworks at Mount Rushmore. She described the move as a "very partisan and political" move on "Your World."

[H/T Fox News]

KRISTI NOEM: 

[The Biden administration] told me they would circle back, but they have denied giving us our permits that we need to host this event. And for me, I’m incredibly disappointed. Because it wasn’t based on anything significant. We had met all the environmental checklists, we had the go/no go checklist prepared and agreed to. We had consulted with our tribes. It appears to be a very partisan and political denial of our right to host this forewords event.

[Last year] we had 7.500 people there celebrating America, our founding fathers, that wonderful monument, and our nation’s independence. We want to do that again this year, we think our country could use it, we could use a celebration and bring some unity to this country in a time that we need it so desperately, and we think it’d be a fantastic event. We’re very disappointed that this White House won’t let us do it.

If the Biden-Harris administration has taught us anything in the first 100 days, it's that no matter what they say, they are doing all they can to demonize conservatives and the Republican Party and use their default position of racism to castigate the right.

America haters block road leading to Mount Rushmore ahead of Trump's event

You really have to hate America to fall in line with most of the protesters, especially the anarchists who tear down statues regardless of the person's full history it represents. Clearly, if any of these people had even half the scrutiny our founders and other leaders had, they would be cancelled faster than an Israeli olympic sprinter in an ISIS camp. But as long as protests are peaceful, they are fully sanctioned under the Bill of Rights, and rightly should be.

But what does peaceful mean? Does it give one license to prevent those who aren't protesting from their freedom of movement to wherever they're going?

Protesters blocked an access road to Mount Rushmore Friday, merely hours before "bad orange man" Trump was set to give a speech to kick off Independence Day weekend.

According to the Associated Press, the protest group was mostly Native Americans protesting that South Dakota’s Black Hills were taken from the Lakota people against treaty agreements.

But if you check history, the Lakota [aka Sioux] took that land from the Cheyanne, and they had taken the land from the Kiowa. But typical of all the plains Indians, even the Kiowa were a warrior people who frequently battled both with their neighbors and tribes well beyond their territory. They were quite famous for their long-distance raids, and even went as far south as Mexico and up to the northern plains.

Then we have the Tonkawa tribe originally thought to have originated in Central Texas, but recent findings has shown the tribe inhabited northwestern Oklahoma as late as 1601, but by 1700, the more aggressive Apache tribe pushed them south to the Red River.

And so on.

War and conquest has been a part of human history since the first stone was thrown. The spoils of war have always gone to the victor. If you don't believe me, just look at the history of Muhammad and his band of roving conquerors and plunderers. And they didn't just get land, they got booty and slaves. Yet somehow, we're supposed to hate the imperfect people who founded this great nation.

It's ridiculous and self-aggrandizing.

Anyway, back to the protesters.

One group parked three vans across the road and took the tires from two of them to make it more difficult to remove them. Several demonstrators climbed on top of the vans chanting “Land back!” Police warned the protesters to disperse but twiddled their police officer thumbs, doing nothing but talk.

The sheriff’s office said attendees had been told to arrive early so should have been past the roadblock. However, the Rapid City Journal reported that some motorists who had tickets for Friday evening’s fireworks show were unable to get through the protests and were standing by their cars watching the standoff.

The Journal reported that law enforcement in riot gear as well as members of the National Guard had arrived on the scene and declared it an unlawful assembly. Thumbs continued twiddling, and voices hummed as crickets were heard laughing at the scene.

The news outlet reported that the lower bowl of the amphitheater where the President was scheduled to speak at approximately 8:50 p.m. local time was full, but there were many empty seats in the upper level.

Protesters do not want to allow conservatives to hear conservative speech. That's why they block roads, infiltrate conservative speaker engagements to create havoc. They don't believe any opposing opinion versus theirs, has any value. And yet they call conservatives science deniers.

Trump's speech was very good. The only problem I noticed with it was when he referred to Stonewall Jackson as "the great Stonewall Jackson." Let us not pretend Jackson didn't have problems with race relations. But perhaps CNN and the other cretin networks will go after him for something else.

Have a wonderful, safe, patriotic Fourth of July everyone!
