Thanks for responding! It is really important context to omit, regardless of Target reporting it as why sales are down. To quote the piece βShoppers made fewer trips to Target in the most recent quarter, with traffic down 2.9%.β This happened with nationwide protests of Target. Seems relevant.
Hey @startribune.com and @carzharts.bsky.social - why arenβt the boycotts of Target mentioned? Being boycotted for abandoning DEI AND compliance with ICE is absolutely one of the reasons behind their lost revenue. Shocking itβs left out here???
@carzharts.bsky.social middle income wine mom here, and me and all of my friends stopped shopping at Target, for none of the reasons you cover in this article.
@carzharts.bsky.social it is wild that you retweeted this, but neglected to mention targetβs compliance with ICE, ditching of DEI, and the public backlash in this article: www.startribune.com/target-best-...
I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out.
If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72
@lauragmitchell.com do you have insight into this?
For the wine mom patrol! π· ππ»

For what itβs worth, as a union leader, I definitely associate the fist with the struggle of the people, and have used it so much in the past two months to show solidarity with neighbors in THIS fight.
Are you stressed about paying mortgage/rent tomorrow? No? Fantastic ππ». I invite you to lend a hand to families that are quite stressed about March 1.
My heavily impacted neighborhood only has funds for half the rent requests right now π

Well at least domestically, my neighbors are still in hiding.
Please support our Central Neighborhood neighbors. They've been so hard hit by ICE! www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-ren...

Ahem @notalawyer.bsky.social
Oh no just rereading what I wrote and apparently the βstopβ didnβt make it into the sentenceβ¦ weβre STOPPING evictions π€¦π»ββοΈ
The flashy Minneapolis headlines have stopped, but the economic devastation hasnβt. Please helps impacted families be evicted - on top of all the other traumas theyβve endured.
This is for the heavily Latine neighborhood in Minneapolis where I live.

From talking to Maryland friends, I donβt think the general population is on board with no whistles. Canβt hurt to prep those willing.
Orange woodcut print with text and a circular floral design in the center. Text reads, March rent. Central Neighbor & Resist. Goal: $500,000
Central is still at only 10% of the amount they think they need for Match rent relief. But they have cute new images to send around! www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-ren...
Ohhh this is a habit I am going to adopt.

Crying in the office today in solidarity with MN legislators, who are opening session without the leadership of Melissa Hortman.
What a devastating loss for our state.

A local student recently lost her mother to cancer, and just weeks later, her father was detained horrifically at her bus stop and abruptly deported. She is now navigating life without both parents.
Funds will go to for her care and legal needs.

Do I trust Tom Homan, no.
But what I am hearing is: the occupation is moving elsewhere.
Until they do, we need to keep caring for our neighbors.
After they do, we need to keep caring for our neighbors.
And we need to stand ready to support wherever is next.
Abolish ICE.
