Target Under Fire for Selling Clothing Made By Creepy Satanic Transgender Designer That Promotes Drugs and Violence

 

 

 

Target was already facing calls for a boycott over “tuck-friendly” bathing suits and chest binders for “transgender” children, and now it has been revealed that they are selling clothing items from a creepy satanic transgender designer that promotes drugs and violence.

The brand in question, Abprallen, was created by a biological woman who identifies as a man and uses the name “Erik Callen.”

 

 

Target is selling Abprallen “We Belong Everywhere” messenger bags, “Too Queer For Here” messenger bags, and “Cure Transphobia, Not Trans People” sweatshirts.

“All items were designed for all bodies, regardless of gender identity and presentation,” Target said in the description for the items. “We added design features to help make the fit customizable for you. Our hope is for all guests to find clothing that makes them feel comfortable and affirmed in their identity. We understand that fit is incredibly important and will continue to evolve and improve on fit needs for the LGBTQIA+ Community.”

Target credits the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network for helping place these items on their shelves.


“GLSEN leads the movement in creating affirming, accessible and anti-racist spaces for LGBTQIA+ students,” Target’s descriptions on the Abprallen items reads. “We are proud of 10+ years of collaboration with GLSEN and continue to support their mission.”

 

Callen wrote of the partnership, “Available in Target stores and on their website. When they approached me to design a range for Pride I realised that I had an opportunity to create something huge, I was given a chance to make work that would be seen by countless people and I wanted to ensure that any young people who saw Abprallen in Target would know that who they are is beautiful, purposeful, and worth expressing.”

The artist made it clear that her designs are aimed at youth.

 

“I imagined what it would be like for a younger version of myself to see something more specific, more tailor made than a lacklustre rainbow flag. I wanted to create a range that would embrace younger me and tell him that who he is is more than OK, that being trans is special and wonderful and that the closet is not made for him to thrive in.”

 

This has been so hard to keep quiet but I can now proudly announce that you can buy Abprallen in US Targets! Part one of the range includes a messenger bag, a tote, and a sweatshirt!

I am truly excited about this, and having to keep quiet about it for nearly a year has been incredibly hard! So I’m stoked to finally be able to talk about it! Please tag me if you buy anything or when you see my stuff in stores, I’d be so honoured and excited to see! (And I’ll give you a discount code as thanks!)

These have already got the transphobes infuriated with me and I feel like quite the celebrity to think that they believe this is all some big conspiracy and I have any power to brainwash anyone when I’m just some guy drawing pictures!

“These have already got the transphobes infuriated with me and I feel like quite the celebrity to think that they believe this is all some big conspiracy and I have any power to brainwash anyone when I’m just some guy drawing pictures!” Callen wrote.

The artist was correct.

As if the items stocked by Target weren’t odd enough, looking at the Abprallen Instagram page shocked and disgusted many conservatives who had begun looking into the company’s partnership with the retail giant.

Abprallen sells a pin with a weapon that says, “We Bash Back.” A guillotine design says “Homophobic headrest.”

 

In the description for an item that says “Burn down the cis-tem” over a lit lighter, Callen wrote, “We don’t need to restructure it, we need to burn it down and start up again in a system that doesn’t police gender or expression – a world that allows exploration, changing our minds, dressing how we want to, taking up the space we need, being treated as we deserve. We need to burn down the cis-tem and create a world where trans people don’t get to just live, but get to absolutely thrive.”


The Blaze notes that other designs include “Join My Gay Cult,” “Transitioning Saves lives,” “Heteronormativity is a Plague,” “Binding Doesn’t Make You Less of a Man,” and “Trans Witches for Abortion.”

One shirt reads “Satan respects pronouns.”

 

Most items are modeled by Callen who does not appear to own any pants.


Other designs promote the use of Poppers, a drug often used during gay sex.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle in NYC: timeline of alleged 'near catastrophic' incident Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claimed paparazzi followed them for 'over two hours' in a 'relentless' chase after an awards ceremony on Tuesday

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle in NYC: timeline of alleged 'near catastrophic' incident

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claimed paparazzi followed them for 'over two hours' in a 'relentless' chase after an awards ceremony on Tuesday

 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended the Ms. Foundation Woman of Vision Awards in New York City on Tuesday evening, and claim they were involved in a "near catastrophic car chase" after the ceremony.

Following the event — where the Duchess of Sussex received the 2023 Woman of Vision Award from Gloria Steinem — Markle, her husband and her mother, Doria Ragland, were pursued by swarms of photographers for "over two hours," which resulted in "multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road," according to a spokesperson for the royal couple.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams criticized the "reckless and irresponsible" incident during a press conference, but also said he found it "hard to believe" a "two-hour, high-speed chase" happened in the densely-populated city wrought with traffic, pedestrians and ongoing construction projects. 


"The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at their destination and there were no reported collisions, summonses, injuries, or arrests in regard."

— Julian Phillips, NYPD deputy commissioner of public information

Alleged car chase

Around 10 p.m. - Prince Harry and Markle leave the event through an exit near the Hertz rental car location and are escorted by multiple security guards to a waiting black sports utility vehicle. As they left, they were followed by paparazzi, according to a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex:

"Last night, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Ms. Ragland were involved in a near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi."

"This relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers."

Police intervened and, assisting the couple’s private security detail, led them to a police station about 18 blocks from the ballroom, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. 

Yellow taxi

The couple spent several minutes at the police station, waiting for the situation to de-escalate. Once it was safe, they left in a taxi, the official, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter and did so on condition of anonymity, told the AP. 

The cab driver, Sukhcharn Singh, told the AP that he instantly recognized his passengers. "They were following us the whole time," he said of the paparazzi, though he said he wouldn’t call it a chase.

Singh was on 67th Street near an NYPD precinct when a security guard waved him down. Singh pulled the yellow taxi to the curb and in came Harry, Markle and her mom.

"They had this look on their faces," he said. "They were about to give their destination when a garbage truck blocked their path."

"All of a sudden paparazzi came out and started taking pictures,'' he said.

Body language expert Susan Constantine explained Markle gave the paparazzi the "nonverbal cold shoulder."

"Meghan is focused straight ahead with eyes wide open giving the paparazzi a nonverbal cold shoulder. When eyes are wide open and frozen straight ahead that can reveal fear or concern," Constantine, the president of The Human Behavior Academy, told Fox News Digital. "Her pressed lips are slightly turned upward at the corners shows a constrained or nervous smile. Concern is also seen with her folded hand in her lap arms together at her side. Her wrists also folded inward showing vulnerability."

Meanwhile, Harry can be seen holding up his phone — possibly recording or taking photos of the paparazzi.

"Harry is annoyed as seen with his left-hand concealing pinching the inner corners of his eyes," Constantine explained. "Photo blocking and documenting the paparazzi chasing or following them."

Back to police precinct 

Instead of going to their final destination, Singh says the royals told him to circle back to the precinct.

"They didn’t say much," Singh said. "They just asked my name and then after that Harry said thanks and have a good day."

They paid $17 in fare — and left a generous tip.

"It was pretty good man,'' Singh told the AP. "They gave me a $50. I mean, when I’m going around the block that’s more than enough."


Sussexes arrive ‘at their destination’ 

The NYPD, who assisted Prince Harry and Markle with transportation, shared their account with Fox News Digital. "There were numerous photographers that made their transport challenging," Julian Phillips, deputy commissioner of public information, said in a statement. 

"The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at their destination and there were no reported collisions, summonses, injuries, or arrests in regard," Phillips concluded. 

Harry's mother, the late Princess Diana, died in a car crash in 1997. At the time, she was being pursued by paparazzi in Paris.

Markle and Harry stepped back from their senior roles in 2020 and have since settled in California to raise their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Fox News Digital reached out to reps for Prince Harry and Markle, as well as the royal family, but have not heard back.

 

 

Conservatives Boycott Target Over Sales of Chest Binders and ‘Tuck-Friendly’ Bathing Suits for ‘Transgender’ Children

 

 

Conservatives Boycott Target Over Sales of Chest Binders and ‘Tuck-Friendly’ Bathing Suits for ‘Transgender’ Children

 

 

 

 

Conservatives have launched a boycott of Target after it was revealed that the retail giant is selling “tuck-friendly” bathing suits and chest binders for “transgender” children.

The items are part of a sizeable LGBTQ-themed selection of children’s apparel, books, and accessories aimed at gender-bending minors.

 

Items of children’s clothing sold by Target include a shirt that says “live laugh lesbian” and another that says “Queer Queer Queer Queer.”

 

Books being sold in the children’s section also include gender ideology materials.


“One book called ‘Bye Bye Binary’ centers on a ‘joyful baby’ who ‘refuses to conform to the gender binary and instead chooses toys, colors, and clothes that make them happy’ and is marketed as a ‘perfect tool to encourage children to love what they love and is also a great baby shower gift for all soon-to-be-parents,'” the Daily Wire reports. “Another volume entitled ‘The Pronoun Book’ exposes ‘readers both young and old’ to a ‘diverse cast of people and simple text that introduces their pronouns.'”

The shocking selection prompted swift backlash from conservative commentators who branded it far worse than Bud Light had done and called for a boycott.

“What @Target is doing is far worse than anything Bud Light did. They are selling chest binders & ‘tuck-friendly’ bathing suits for children,” Daily Wire host Matt Walsh said. “Target is calling our bluff. But just like any other company, they need our business. We did it with Bud Light. Now it’s Target’s turn.”

 

“I try to stay out of @Target as much as possible but this is the very first thing you see when you walk in the store right now,” conservative musician Five Times August tweeted. “It’s displayed there because they want kids to see it. It’s all programming. Everywhere you go. Stay out of Target. Friggin’ obnoxious.”

The singer’s tweet included photos of items for sale, one of which included imagery of nude adults.

Concerned mothers also filmed themselves questioning target employees about where the “Straight section” for children is.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle moving from protected SUV to taxi amid chase makes 'zero sense': security expert

 

 (Didn't they say that they "wanted their privacy and wanted a normal life"? The lies keep coming)

Harry keeps making himself look silly... 

how many INTELLIGENT people will believe this crap?)

 

 

 



Prince Harry, Meghan Markle moving from protected SUV to taxi amid chase makes 'zero sense': security expert

A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex claimed they were chased through New York City by photographers for 'over two hours'

 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle switching from a chauffeured, protected SUV to a New York City taxicab during an alleged chase involving paparazzi photographers Tuesday night makes "zero sense," a security expert told Fox News Digital Wednesday. 

"It makes zero sense," AllSTAR Security President Mark Selden told Fox News Digital in a phone interview. "Completely zero sense. "You're in a protected environment. You're with your security." 

The Sussexes and Meghan's mother Doria Ragland were pursued in their car by photographers after a charity event in New York City Tuesday evening, briefly taking refuge at a police station before being whisked away in a yellow taxicab.

"They were at a police precinct, which is the safest environment they could be in," Selden added. "And that's where they should have stayed in a safe environment, never should have left." 

A spokesperson for the royal couple told Fox News Digital: "Last night, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Ms. Ragland were involved in a near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi.

"This relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD (New York Police Department) officers," the spokesperson said. 

The couple’s car stopped at a police precinct around 18 blocks from where they attended the Women of Vision Awards at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in Midtown Manhattan and eventually grabbed a yellow cab from there. 

Sukhcharn Singh, the cab driver, told The Associated Press it was one of Markle and Harry's private security guards who flagged him down as he drove on 67th Street near the police station. 

The couple spent several minutes at the station, waiting for the situation to de-escalate. Once it was safe, they left in a taxi, an official, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter and did so on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press.

Selden, who works in New York City, said he would have advised having at least two security guards as they reportedly only had one during the taxicab move, adding that the move to the taxicab put the Sussexes in "an unsafe position."

"If what I understand, they were with one security guard from what I've read, allegedly. And, you know, one security guard is obviously not enough for the former royals or the royals that they are."

 

The taxi driver said that the paparazzi "were following us the whole time," though he said he wouldn’t call it a chase. "They didn’t say much," Singh said. "They just asked my name and then after that Harry said thanks and have a good day."

"They gave me a $50" for a $17 fare, he told the AP. "I mean, when I’m going around the block that’s more than enough."

The taxi driver told The AP that Markle and Harry were about to give their destination when a garbage truck blocked their path, and instead, one of the royals told him to circle back to the precinct and gave him a generous tip.

Selden also said he thought the claim that the alleged chase lasted two hours in the city made "zero sense" to him. 

"It makes zero sense to someone who's a New Yorker," he said. "You could have gone to a police station in 15 minutes anywhere in New York City, could have gone to a firehouse, go to a governmental building. You could have gone to a hotel where [the paparazzi] could have been locked out. You could have gone anywhere. You could have been in a much more safe situation, let alone running around New York City in a car."


He said he’s familiar with paparazzi chases because of his work protecting dignitaries, celebrities and business people.

 When you are someone that's in the public eye, you're always going to be a bit aware that there's going to be paparazzi looking at you. That's part of your job," he explained, "but at the same time, if you put yourself in an unsafe situation, you have to know how to get yourself to safety and your security, that's their job to know that." 

Former Secret Service agent Dan Emmett told Fox News that the Sussexes would need "more police support" if they plan to stay in the U.S. 

"I believe if they’re going to stay in this country they’re going to continue to attract this type of attention from the media from the paparazzi," he told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto. "They’re going to have to get a little more police support. If you surround the vehicle with police you’re not going to have this type of situation." 

He added that in the three years he served in the New York Secret Service field office, "I don't believe there was ever any high-speed chase that lasted two hours. You can actually drive through all five boroughs of New York in two hours."

He said more video or other evidence would need to come to light to make that claim more credible. "I also find it very unlikely that this occurred for two hours and NYPD made no arrests. To me, that seems the most bizarre part of the story," Emmett added. 

Selden echoed Emmett's statement, saying: "I can't imagine running around New York City for two hours and not finding safety is beyond me. I mean, you can walk into a hotel, you can walk into a building, you can walk into a Fifth Avenue building, and they'll close the door behind them and lead you to safety … I mean, there are buildings you can walk into that will take you in for cover. I mean, all over New York."

The incident was also a reminder of Princess Diana’s deadly car crash following a high-speed paparazzi chase in Paris in 1997, though in this case, police said, no one was hurt. 


The NYPD told Fox News Digital that the photographers "made their transport challenging" but they arrived at their destination safely and no arrests were made. 

Authorities are also looking through traffic camera footage and security footage to "piece together what transpired," a law enforcement source told Fox News Digital.

Fox News Digital's Lauryn Overhultz and Haley-Chi-Sing as well as The Associated Press contributed to this report.
