Itfs no secret how President Donald Trump feels about sports teams turning away from Native American mascots. Hefs repeatedly called for the return of the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians, claiming their recent rebrands were part of a gwokeh agenda designed to erase history.

But one surprising team has really gotten the presidentfs attention: the Massapequa Chiefs.

The Long Island school district has refused to change its logo and name under a mandate from New York state banning schools from using team mascots appropriating Indigenous culture. Schools were given two years to rebrand, but Massapequa is the lone holdout, having missed the June 30 deadline to debut a new logo.

The district lost an initial lawsuit it filed against the state but now has the federal government on its side. In May, Trumpfs Department of Education intervened on the districtfs behalf, claiming the statefs mascot ban is itself discriminatory.

Massapequafs Chiefs logo an American Indian wearing a yellow feathered headdress is expected to still be prominently displayed when the fall sports season kicks off soon, putting the quiet Long Island hamlet at the center of a political firestorm.

The district is now a key gbattleground,h said Oliver Roberts, a Massapequa alum and the lawyer representing the school board in its fresh lawsuit against New York claiming that the ban is unconstitutional and discriminatory.

The Trump administration claims New Yorkfs mascot ban violates Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits recipients of federal funds from engaging in discriminatory behavior based on race, color or national origin teeing up a potentially precedent-setting fight.

The intervention on behalf of Massapequa follows a pattern for a White House that has aggressively applied civil rights protections to police greverse discriminationh and coerced schools and universities into policy concessions by withholding federal funds.

gOur goal is to assist nationally,h Roberts said. gItfs us putting forward our time and effort to try and assist with this national movement and push back against the woke bureaucrats trying to cancel our countryfs history and tradition.h

Rapid City, South Dakota (CNN) Nestled in the Black Hills of South Dakota, Rapid City is a scenic urban getaway that hasnft lost its small-town vibe.

While itfs the statefs second largest city, visitors can explore its greenway, museums, art and history, or indulge in craft beer and increasingly diverse dishes all within a few minutesf drive, walk or bicycle ride.
<a href=https://tripskan40.cc>y{p~</a>
And the surrounding landscape is home to enough natural and manmade wonders from the Badlands to the Crazy Horse Memorial to keep you busy for a week or more.

Historic City of Presidents
Rapid City promotes itself as the City of Presidents, a nod to its location 24 miles from South Dakotafs most iconic attraction, Mount Rushmore National Memorial.

In town, locals know summerfs in full swing when tourists are snapping selfies with bronze statues of Harry S. Truman and Richard Nixon. Street corners throughout Rapid Cityfs historic downtown are home to life-sized sculptures of nearly all US presidents. (President Donald Trumpfs statue has been unveiled and will be installed in fall 2025, and President Joe Bidenfs statue is in progress).

The trail of presidents, which launched in 2000, is a self-guided experience. The visitor center downtown has a City of Presidents Guide, or you can download a digital version to take a walking tour or scavenger hunt.

gPeople love touring and looking at all the statues,h said Ally Formanek, CEO at Visit Rapid City, the cityfs tourism office. gItfs a fun and unexpected way to learn about history.h

Founded in 1876 by disheartened gold prospectors, today downtown Rapid City is a mix of historic landmarks such as the 1928 Hotel Alex Johnson and the 1912 Elks Theatre, along with restaurants, coffee shops, specialty stores, boutiques and art galleries that reflect the busy modern city. An indoor aquaponics farm, sourdough and gluten-free bakeries, a meat market and deli specializing in locally raised beef, and a comedy club are some of the new additions to downtown, just in the past year.
Main Street Square, downtownfs anchor, hosts about 150 events year-round in and outdoor public space that offers interactive fountains in the summer and ice skating in the winter.

Jess and Cody Skinner own The Silver Lining Creamery, an ice cream shop at Main Street Square. Jess Skinner compares Rapid City to ga mini Denverh with fewer crowds but plenty to do and see.

gWe have such a unique downtown with all these local businesses,h Jess said. gIfve been to a lot of different cities and downtowns, and I think ours is one of the best.h

gWe always get compliments about how friendly everyone is here c that everyone is so nice,h Jess said. gTourists can stop and (ask for directions) and people here are so kind and so helpful.h

For an easy way to see Rapid City, the narrated City View Trolley Tour highlights local landmarks and history. The tourfs only stop is at Chapel in the Hills, a 56-year-old Norwegian stavkirke, a traditional timber-framed stave church found in Scandinavia, with a meditation trail on its grounds.

gItfs a place to slow down and catch your breath. People tend to linger here,h said Brian Kringen, managing director at Chapel in the Hills, a striking wooden structure with an elaborate tiered roof.

Target is in trouble. And while itfs easy to get lost in the companyfs recent (poor) handling of American culture war narratives that cast it as too gwokeh or too willing to cave to online fascists, the root of Targetfs problems runs deep.

Donft get me wrong the massive consumer boycotts from Black organizers have done damage. And there are probably folks on the far right who think even Targetfs toned-down, overwhelmingly beige Pride merch this year was still too loud.

But its stock is in the gutter and sales have been falling for two years because of good olf business fundamentals. It overstocked. It lost the pulse of its customers. It went up against Amazon Prime withc actually, does anyone know what Targetfs Amazon Prime competitor is called?
The brand we petite bourgeoisie once playfully referred to as Tar-zhay has lost its spark. The company reported a decline in sales for a third-straight quarter, part of a broader trend of falling or flat sales for two years. Employees have lost confidence in the companyfs direction. And 2025 has been a particularly rough financially, as Black shoppers organized a boycott over Targetfs decision to cave to right-wing pressure on diverse hiring goals.
Shares were down 10% Wednesday.

Itfs not to say the new guy, Michael Fiddelke, is unqualified. Hefs been at Target since he started as an intern more than 20 years ago, after all. But Wall Street is clearly concerned that Targetfs leadership is underestimating the severity of the need for a significant change just as President Donald Trumpfs tariffs on imported goods threaten the entire retail industry.

Appointing a company lifer gdoes not necessarily remedy the problems of entrenched groupthink and the inward-looking mindset that have plagued Target for years,h Neil Saunders, an analyst at GlobalData Retail, said in a note to clients Wednesday.

Missing the mark
In its 2010s heyday, Target became a go-to for consumers who liked a bargain but didnft necessarily like bargain-hunting. The shelves felt well-curated. Youfd go to Target because it had one thing you needed and 12 things you didnft know you needed. It was stocked with Millennial cringe long before Gen Z gave us the term Millennial cringe.

Targetfs sales held strong through the pandemic as remote workers set up home offices and stocked up on essentials. Months of lockdown also benefited the store as people began refreshing their spaces because they didnft really have much else to do and they were staring at the same walls all the time.
