Target shoppers fuming over the retailer’s LGBTQ merchandise — including “tuck-friendly” swimwear — have stormed some stores to tear down Pride signs, badger workers and even leave a case of Bud Light alongside the offending items.
Oh No! Pride Toronto considering cuts to festival amid soaring policing, insurance costs: organizers
When it comes to the culture war, the Left is playing a different ball game.
In recent weeks, the Los Angeles Dodgers made headlines by flip-flopping on whether or not to honor a group of anti-Catholic drag queens at their annual Pride Night. First pressured by Christians and then pressured by LGBTQ activists, the Dodgers have changed their minds several times, eventually landing right back where they started.
Target has lost $9 billion in market value since angry social media users called for a boycott of the Minneapolis-based retailer over its rollout of the “PRIDE” collection featuring LGBTQ-friendly clothing for children.
A week ago Wednesday before the controversy erupted, Target’s stock closed at $160.96 a share, giving the big-box chain a market capitalization of $74.3 billion.
Budweiser is giving away its beer for free with new promotions after the Dylan Mulvaney backlash wiped almost $16 billion off parent company Anheuser-Busch’s market value.
Anheuser-Busch has seen its market value plunge $15.7billion since the disastrous campaign with Mulvaney began on April 1.
In the latest scramble to return to the good graces of customers, Bud Light revealed a new promotion called the US Budweiser Family Memorial Day Rebate online.
The Los Angeles Dodgers announced that the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a well-known San Francisco order of queer and trans “nuns” that has existed since the 1970s, are once again welcome at the team’s annual Pride Night.
Last week, the baseball team rescinded the group’s invitation after a Republican senator from Florida wrote a letter accusing the sisters, a group which came to prominence during the Aids crisis, of being anti-Christian activists. The group, which does charitable and protest work in addition to its street drag show performances, was set to receive an award during a ceremony before a 16 June game against the San Francisco Giants.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have nixed plans to honor a radical group of “queer and trans nuns” at their upcoming Pride Night — following uproar over the allegedly “blatantly perverted, sexual and disgusting anti-Catholic hate group.”
The baseball team announced earlier this month that it was honoring the local chapter of The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence with its annual Community Hero Award next month.
The “nuns” — who have names like Sister T’aint A Virgin, Sister Porn Again and Sister Holly Lewya — were being awarded for supposedly “promoting human rights and respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment.”
“We are sick of it. These bans are not just about trans people or drag performers,” PEG co-founder Jacob Slane told Entertainment Weekly. “It is a systematic subjugation of LGBTQ people. Through the Drag Isn’t Dangerous campaign, we want to show that drag performers are not dangerous groomers, sexual deviants, criminals or whatever is the latest evangelical slur du jour.
Hollywood is dying. I’m not sorry.
An LGBTQ rights group asked the CRTC to ban Fox News over ‘false and horrifying claims’ made by host Tucker Carlson regarding transgender individuals

A transgender female pedophile who filmed her seven year-old daughter being sexually abused for horrific porn videos is being housed in a New Jersey women’s prison despite still having a penis, it is claimed.
Marina Volz, 34, is serving her 25 year sentence at the notorious Edna Mahan Correctional Facility alongside her accomplice Ashley Romero, 30, who joined in the abuse of the girl.
Volz, born a man named Matthew, is now recorded as ‘female’ in official prison records, with her presence at Edna Mahan said to be causing terror among biological women housed there.
I find it hard to believe there’s a bullet shortage in New Jersey.
Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton faced accusations of pushing “pornography” for schoolchildren after she came out against “bans” of sexually explicit pro-LGBTQ materials in schools nationwide.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, Clinton declared “over 50% of the attempted book bans last year involved books with LGBTQ+ characters & themes,” though she made no note of the explicit nature of such publications.
Bud Light’s partnership with TikTok celebrity influencer Dylan Mulvaney may go down in history as the most devastating own goal in marketing history.
Partnering with celebrity influencers was nothing new for Budweiser. So their VP of Marketing, Alissa Heinerscheid reckoned it could work for a beer with declining sales that, in her view, required a less “fratty” image. Since Bud Light had already proven itself supportive of LGBT causes, Heinerscheid had no reason to believe that the choice to partner with the “365 days of becoming a girl” celebrity would backfire. But, on April 1, when Mulvaney posted a photo of a custom-designed gift from Heinerscheid: a can of Bud Light with Mulvaney’s face on it, Budweiser’s troubles began. Heinerscheid is now on indefinite leave, a second other senior executive would soon follow.
“I’m not quite sure whether the bill is totally dead or not, because nothing is until the legislature adjourns. We do know that the GOP managed to get the language normalizing pedophilia stripped out of the bill in a vote yesterday.”

Pflag warns it could designate Catholic school board ‘Unsafe for the LGBTQ2IA+ Community of York Region’
York Regional Police were once again called to a York Catholic District School Board meeting as part of an ongoing dispute involving members of the LGBTQ2IA+ community and its allies, who are pushing the board to raise the Pride flag.
Police received a call about a “disturbance” on the evening of April 25 at the board’s Aurora headquarters, Duty Insp. Marc Hilliker said.
“We were called to a disturbance there and by the time we got there, most had left,” he said.
I suspect that the real issue concerns efforts to influence the board by supporters of the perverted adult fetish that finds cruel delight in the sexual mutilation of mentally ill children but the Star has left that out.
Norwich, Ont., votes to exclude Pride flags on township property
The township of Norwich, Ont., has voted to exclude Pride flags from being flown on its property. Instead, the municipality has moved to only fly flags representing municipal, provincial and federal governments.
The bylaw was proposed by Coun. John Scholten at a Tuesday night council meeting. Scholten says he believes civic flags best represent all groups of people, and allow everyone to coexist in harmony, regardless of their identity or beliefs.
Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney decision follows a corporate pattern.
I swore I’d never write a column about Dylan Mulvaney.
However, after noticing the recent battle around my third-favorite whiskey (Jack Daniel’s) being heavily advertised in my market by drag queens, I can’t help seeing him as part of a broader phenomenon. Many large American companies, especially the “manly” ones, currently seem almost intent on alienating their primary consumer bases.
Link fixed.
The Fort Worth Police Department released surveillance and body camera videos of Antifa members attacking people who were protesting a drag event and then resisting arrest from officers after they attempted to bring them in custody for the initial assault.
The third violent Antifa member arrested today at our "family-friendly" drag protest. This person sprayed members of @NCMvmt with pepper spray while they were praying.
