🎶 If they are holding them, make sure a habeas petition is filed as quickly as possible… 🎶 It’s a weird Kenny lyric, but it resonates now for sure
And then you certainly don’t go tell people all of that in the newspaper. This is worse than just a bad strategy. It’s another middle finger to those of us who used to be very loyal and excited Target shoppers.
Until you fix your values and actions, no rebranding or retooling will revive “Tarzhay”.
Flaunting your bad behavior and saying we don’t care like this is the equivalent of your horrible ex saying you they really in to Joe Rogan, started taking an Alex Jones supplement, and subscribed to RFK Jr.’s MAHA newsletter, and because they’ve changed, we should take you back.
And all of this plus donating to the Trump inauguration grift, why would any one want to go back when Costco will give me better deals and sell me a $1.50 hotdog and pop?
If you admit that you’ve done some messed up stuff and tell us how you’re going to be different, you might get some of us back.
This thinking also says to me that you are cool with how your low level employees were treated by ICE. Diversity and protections for management, every one else though? Not so much.
Forget remodeling your store or changing your offerings. We don’t, and won’t, go in the store to see.
…then the “we donate 5% of profits back”, seems like you’re saying because you return some of the surplus value you extract from consumers, that it’s totally fine that you do whatever else you want, no matter how much our values no longer align. Our commitment to our neighbors cannot be bought.
To then say Target doesn’t have a diversity problem, perhaps it is because, until very recently, you had a DEI program?
And even if Target is a diverse and friendly place towards some of its management, if you’re cool with ICE coming in and snatching your folks, and hell, all of the rest of us…
The Target rebrand is starting off with their very own “the stock market is over 50 thousand.”
When you list all of the objections people, including myself, have raised about shopping at Target, and then only answer the DEI piece badly, you’re not listening us.
The Warren Zevon track no one knew we needed - Lawyers, chuds, and money.
Turnout tonight in every caucus that I’ve been able to check in with people on so far has said that this was the largest attendance in recent memory. That was certainly my experience in 66 tonight. Yes, democratic institutions are important, but the real power of democracy will always be the people.
Why Shelley is a great candidate:
-former President of the board for the Prairie Island Indian Community, so she has experience making policy and working with the legislature
-She runs Owámniyomni Okhódayapi, which works to restore important Dakota sites
-is protecting neighbors in Woodbury from ICE
And to give you an idea of how unhinged this lady running against Shelley is, this is what she handed out at the convention. I think if you proudly voted for George W. Bush not once, but twice, that’s should probably be disqualifying on its own.
There is an independent candidate that after failing to collect enough signatures to get on the ballot as a third party decided to run for the DFL endorsement. She is running a write in campaign against Shelley, so it is really important that people go vote in 47A for reasons other than spite.
The Bondi-Miller Federal Correctional Facility just has a more satisfying ring to it than anything I can think of right now.
Counter offer: No. Y'all can just leave. Normally, I would not advocate building more prisons, but I am pretty sure we can build some pretty cut rate ones that have lots of room outside to experience our winters for when all y'all get prosecuted for this down the line. We can even name it for you.
A core city service should be preventing abductions rather than parking the cars of the abductees.
The insurrection act threat today is particularly chilling in Minnesota. One thing that almost no one has paid attention to is that there are two special elections in two weeks. If you were an authoritarian testing the waters, that might be your best opportunity for a low risk trial run.

I’m not throwing away my shot to Pokémon go to see this!
This is Bob Again Carney Jr. erasure.
Main Street > C suite. Any Ward would be lucky to have CM Cashman, and Ward 7 should vote to give her another term.
I am eagerly awaiting the analysis of slamming only in the back of his Dragula. As if Dragula can even be owned by one person.
Looking forward to all of the top notch Bee Movie content that CBS is going to provide from here on out.
I believe this federally protects the Spruce Tree as a bald eagle habitat.
Finally, a Joe Rogan for the Left… for the Center! Those guys are gonna get 10 million dollars from the DNC!
Also, I thought Starbucks was waging a war on Christmas. Why is that lady even there when she could be choking down whatever from Chik Fil A. And nothing like “I’m not causing a scene, you’re causing a scene!” When you’re the one who’s filming…
