S.D. Gov. Kristi Noem accuses Target of
MINNEAPOLIS — South Dakota’s governor is calling for people to stop shopping at Target, calling the company “dangerous” and accusing it of “fundamentally tearing down this country.”
On Fox News Wednesday, Gov. Kristi Noem pushed back at the Minneapolis-based retailer for giving millions of dollars to an Indigenous rights group, known as NDN Collective. The group has previously called for the closure of Mount Rushmore saying it sits on stolen Lakota land.
Noem says boycotting Target is about protecting freedom.
“While the rest of the country is worried about, you know, having fun and going out and shopping and enjoying a store, that store is fundamentally tearing down this country. And we have to have real conversations about how serious we are about protecting our freedom,” Noem said.
Noem accused NDN Collective of being “anti-American, anti-military, anti-cop, anti-veteran … anti-Israel.”
WCCO has reached out to Target for comment, but are still waiting to hear back.
Target has been at the center of a number of recent campaigns from various right-wing entities, most recently drawing ire over a number of items the retailer had for sale during Pride Month. When Target then removed some of those items, they faced a counter-backlash from those supporting LGBTQ+ rights.

Montana State vs. South Dakota: 2024 FCS semifinal highlights
Dec. 21, 2024
Montana State defeated South Dakota 31-17 to advance the FCS finals, led by Walter Payton Award finalist Tommy Mellott. Watch the full game highlights here.
FARGO, N.D. — Bryce Lance caught three touchdown passes from Cam Miller, including a one-handed game winner, to give North Dakota State a 28-21 win over two-time defending national champion South Dakota State on Saturday and a berth in the FCS title game.
The second-seeded Bison (13-2) will take on the winner of top-seeded Montana State and No. 4 seed South Dakota, played later Saturday, for the championship on Jan. 6 in Frisco, Texas. NDSU, winner of nine FCS titles with its last coming in 2021, won its 20th straight home playoff game and beat the Jackrabbits for the second time this season. Those two teams and South Dakota tied for the Missouri Valley Football Conference title.
After the third-seeded Jackrabbits (12-3) tied the game at 21-all, the Bison drove 75 yards and scored with 4:18 remaining when Lance snagged a pass with his right hand and managed to get control and a foot down in the right corner of the end zone. The play was initially ruled as incomplete but overturned on review.
On South Dakota State’s final possession, Mark Gronowski was sacked on fourth-and-17 at the Jackrabbits’ 31.
The teams traded touchdowns in each of the first two quarters before both punting three times in the third quarter.
Miller found Lance deep for a 47-yard score early in the fourth and the Jackrabbits tied it midway through the period on Gronowski’s 14-yard pass to Grahm Goering.
Lance, brother of NFL quarterback Trey Lance, made six catches for 125 yards, his other TD coming on a 21-yarder. Miller was 13-of-19 for 179 yards and also rushed for 93 yards and a TD.
Gronowski was 14-of-25 passing for 204 yards and he also ran for a score. Amar Johnson rushed for 77 yards and a touchdown.
