Private Individuals Step Up...

to provide more than $70,000 to fund Minneapolis PRIDE celebrations, which replaces the $50,000 the Target corporation has been donating annually, that the PRIDE organization told them to keep after Target backed away from it's commitment to diversity. 

It's a shame, but if you can't or won't stand by people now, you can keep your money.  Good to see people with money stepping up to put it where their mouths are.  Either all of us matter, or it's just hypocritical to play consumers with your previous public stances.

In other news, the wealthy suburb of Lakeville is voting tonight at their school board meeting whether to continue putting up posters like, "We're All In This Together" and other inclusive diversity messages.

Voting for Donald John Trump has consequences. He wasn't unclear about this, was he? Did you really think the leopards would not eat your face?

Who bullied Target into that? Was it?

SATAN????

or was it the church ladies of the GOP cum MAGALagos under the direction, and I shit you not, of a fella named Robbie Starbuck who alleged that a member of the White House Press Corps "karate chopped" an intern when he held tight onto a shared mic she grasped at in order to appease her boss during the Trump admin. (Let's call this one the Heritage/Musk admin to differentiate)
Anyhoo, Robbie Starbuck is why Target can't have nice things. And why you feel unsafe. You voted for this, so enjoy?
