Target, once a household name, is facing an unprecedented disaster. The company’s shares have plummeted in a record 8-day losing streak, evaporating a stunning $12.5 billion of market cap.

Amidst the backlash, Target is discreetly removing the contentious items from certain stores. Is this a desperate attempt to avoid further public uproar akin to Bud Light’s recent debacle? Or, is it too little too late? A deeply troubling video by podcaster Benny Johnson reveals that the controversial items still prevail in some stores.
