Target backs org pushing US demilitarization, Mt. Rushmore shutdown for being a 'symbol of White supremacy'

FOX NEWS INVESTIGATES – Since the George Floyd protests and riots of 2020, Target Corporation said it ramped up its diversity, equity and inclusion work. This agenda extended far beyond enhancing representation and support of historically marginalized groups externally and in its stores, and dipped into funding organizations with far-left and blatantly political agendas.

Target's "accelerated" its DEI program in response to Black Lives Matter activism under the leadership of its diversity chief – Kiera Fernandez. The chief has demanded that "White women" get to work to combat the proclaimed systemic racism in America.

Fox News Digital found that Target, via its nonprofit foundation, which has been directed by the retail giant's senior corporate treasurers, funded a grantee pushing to shut down and give away U.S. sovereign land such as Mount Rushmore – believing it to be an "international symbol of White supremacy" and to demilitarize the "violent" U.S. military. The same grantee also supports the destruction of Israel's Jewish character through what is called the Palestinian "Law of Return" and implementing economic warfare tactics against the Jewish State, such as boycotts and sanctions, to "Free Palestine."

Boy is Target ever done. And so is Kohls. They sell infant clothing with Homo pride themes pasted on them.

I have not been in a Target in probably 10 years. There is a Target “superstore” near me but there is nothing in it that I can’t find somewhere else.

Target partnered with GLSEN, a K-12 education group that focuses on getting districts to adopt policies that will keep parents in the dark about their child's in-school gender transition, providing sexually explicit books and integrating gender ideology at all levels of curricula in public schools.

Another Target Foundation grantee said parents must teach specifically "White children" about systemic racism and to "see color." It also claimed that capitalism maintained a role in perpetuating racism.

Even more than this in the full article.

Kind of ironic that all of these so-called "social justice" initiatives as well as these alternative lifestyles these woke virtue signalers are supporting are created and driven by corporate billionaires. They did not occur organically. Creating confusion and a victim mentality to control the masses and keep them beat down.

“In America today, you can’t just be a big corporation, you either must be aligned with the elites/ruling party, or you are crushed”.

Because that is a big component of Fascism.

Agree. These companies have been infiltrated by Marxists who want to destroy capitalism. They want the boycotts to take down these companies. That is my theory, but others have said the same. I could be wrong, but there is something seriously insidious here. It’s too obvious. Why would a company willing self-destruct?

Yep, while we were all “Capitalism Uber Alles”, the Left was infiltrating the companies.

It’s worth the trip. We had to drive from Maryland to Minneapolis for a wedding so decided to check a few more states off the list. (I’m at 46)

10 days, 11 states, 4350 miles.

We didn’t have any significant plans. No hotel reservations, nothing. It was almost a pure road trip. “Hey, I just saw a sign for a Lewis and Clark Museum.” It’s only 30 miles out of our way. Let’s go.”

The SPAM Museum in Minnesota was remarkably cool too.

Plan a trip to the Badlands while you’re there. We didn’t go but I heard Custer State park is also incredible.

“The chief has demanded that “White women” get to work to combat the proclaimed systemic racism in America.”

Notice how the left ALWAYS targets women. It’s because they know that women are the weak link. Back in the 1950s and 1960s, the left tried to ram through integration and it was defeated every time because white men and WOMEN voted against it. It was then that the left created “feminism” in order to break the bonds between white men and women. Make women identify with “oppressed minorities”, and turn them against their brothers, fathers, uncles, cousins, etc. If you don’t believe that this was all aimed at white women, notice how they NEVER try to separate black women from black men, or Hispanic women from Hispanic men, it is ALWAYS to separate white women from white men.
