Target, the popular retail giant, is facing backlash for their links to anti-American groups that want to destroy one of America’s iconic symbols – Mount Rushmore. Governor Kristi Noem of South Dakota, which takes pride in its historical monument, publicly criticized Target for supporting an extremist group that seeks to dismantle America’s foundation of freedom and democracy. The group is known for their extremist views, including wanting to demilitarize the military and promoting anti-cop and anti-veteran rhetoric, as well as opposing Israel. Target’s stock value has dramatically decreased, with over $9 billion lost. It’s a crucial moment for American corporations to operate based on democratic principles to avoid losing the values that make America great.
