South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem says America 'just can't shop at Target anymore' because the store is 'fundamentally tearing down this country' after 'tuck-friendly' swimwear debacle knocked $14b off market value

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has hit out at Target for funding a woke organization that wants to close Mount Rushmore, which it sees as a 'symbol of white supremacy.'

In an interview with FOX News host Steve Doocy on Fox and Friends Wednesday, Noem said that while she and other Americans loved shopping at Target 'we just can't anymore' because the company is 'fundamentally tearing down this country.'

Target has come under fire in recent weeks for its Pride display featuring 'tuck-friendly' swimsuits for women.

It was later revealed that its nonprofit organization has donated millions to a pro-LGBTQ organization that promotes keeping a child's gender identity from their parents and another group that calls for the return of Mount Rushmore to the Lakota people.

Target's market value plummeted by $14billion in the wake of the scandal, but has since ticked back up slightly, recouping $1billion of its losses.

On Wednesday, Doocy spoke about Target's connection with the NDN Collective, an Indigenous-led organization dedicated to building Indigenous power, according to its website.

The FOX News host asked Noem what she thought of the connection, to which she replied: 'Well Steve it's crazy.

'They want to take away Mount Rushmore, shut it down, eliminate it. And it has long been an institution of what America stands for.'

Agree. She’s also got the easiest job in the country. Only 800K in the entire state.

Makes one wonder if someone was doing all this just to “modify” Target’s stock. I really have no idea what’s going on here. Don’t do stock market or buy much at Target. Can’t say if our local store was even affected.

Read about what Target supports.
It is sickening to read about the hatred they have for this country.
