Proud Americans once hosted cases of Bud Light at their Fourth of July celebrations every year. It was a staple of American culture, the nation’s favorite beer. No one will touch the product now after Anheuser-Busch alienated their customer base by using cheap beer to promote the transexual agenda. Modelo, a Mexican beer, is now the top beer in America. Modelo is owned by the same parent company of Bud Light, but most people don’t look into these details. Anheuser-Busch executive Anson Frericks said that the Fourth of July would make or break the beer, but he believes the fight “has already been lost.”
Frericks told reporters Bud Light lost $20 million in marketing due to the Dylan Mulvaney disaster, and he believes the CEO should step down. “‘As we move forward, we will focus on what we do best—brewing great beer for everyone and earning our place in moments that matter to our consumers.”
The situation is so dire that Ardagh Group, one of the world’s largest glass producers, has shut down its factory in Wilson North Carolina. The company said it was due to a lack of demand and “part of a “multi-year performance optimization program.” Over 650 employees at that factory are out of a job. A private investigation revealed that the factory closed as a direct result of Bud Light failing.
The company learned absolutely nothing from their scandal. Bud Light sponsored a Toronto pride event where NAKED MEN roamed the streets in front of children. Trudeau locked up truckers for protesting but permits and supports this filth. The event was much more than simply the right for same-sex couples to marry as it featured disturbing fetishes, public nudity, and promoted transition surgery. There is a shift amid this extreme woke agenda where the people are refusing to cave into this mass psyop degenerative world. Bud Light no longer represents American values and will never reclaim the title of America’s top beer.
I previously wrote that WOKE is by no means establishing EQUALITY – it is creating racism which is unconstitutional. This entire agenda is total nonsense. Gays are now being discriminated against as part of this propaganda movement behind Transgenderism. When companies make targeted racial composition goals for their employees, they have to engage in discrimination to achieve those goals. That is discrimination not to hire a white person who is more qualified because, like the White House, which wants a black girl – not even a black man as its spokesperson to appear WOKE.
Biden promised to appoint a black woman to the Supreme Court regardless of her qualification. Even if a black man would be better, it did not matter – do not apply. I watched the prosecutions in New York with amazement. They would put a black kid on trial, and he would magically get a black judge and a nearly full black jury where they would select the older blacks who were prejudiced against the young blacks shooting up the neighborhood. The judge would hand out a harsh sentence for these young blacks he would view as ruining his reputation.
There was a Chinese slave ship that ran aground on Long Island. The Chinese defendant magically got the only Chinese Judge Chin. I saw a Jewish guy get the maximum sentence because the judge was Jewish and he even said that he had disgraced his school that the judge also went to.
This nonsense that appointing a black woman would somehow rule in favor of blacks is such propaganda it is amazing. One lawyer accused a prosecutor of selecting a racially charged jury and the prosecutor then said he would make sure that lawyer was stripped of his license to practice in NY city.
The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that race-conscious admission policies of Harvard College and the University of North Carolina violate the Constitution, bringing an end to affirmative action in higher education in a decision that will reverberate across campuses nationwide and corporate boardrooms. This is a wake-up call that WOKE is flat outright racial and unconstitutional. People who work hard and graduate at the top of their class find this insufficient. They will not be hired if they do not fit a racial quota for the company’s WOKE score. I am getting a lot of emails about this taking place already. This decision today will establish a critical precedent and unleash lawsuits against these WOKE companies who are engaging in racism to file some arbitrary score.
The court ruled 6-3 along ideological lines in the University of North Carolina case and 6-2 in the Harvard dispute. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recused herself. Chief Justice John Roberts authored the majority opinion, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett. Thomas read a concurring opinion from the bench. Justice Sonia Sotomayor also read her dissent aloud, the first time a dissenting justice has done so this term.
“The Harvard and UNC admissions programs cannot be reconciled with the guarantees of the Equal Protection Clause.” Satomayor’s dissent argued:
The Court concludes that Harvard’s and UNC’s policies are unconstitutional because they serve objectives that are insufficiently measurable, employ racial categories that are imprecise and overbroad, rely on racial stereotypes and disadvantage nonminority groups, and do not have an end point.

In a landmark court ruling released today, the U.S. Supreme Court effectively ended the use of affirmative action in college admissions. {237-page ruling here}
By a vote of 6-3 (UNC) and 6-2 (Harvard) the court ruled the admissions programs used by the University of North Carolina and Harvard College violate the Constitution’s equal protection clause barring racial discrimination by government entities.
Chief Justice John Roberts writing the opinion of the majority said that for too long universities have “concluded, wrongly, that the touchstone of an individual’s identity is not challenges bested, skills built, or lessons learned but the color of their skin. Our constitutional history does not tolerate that choice.”
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a woman of notoriously activist disposition defined by her self-image and race, sat out the Harvard case because she had been a member of an advisory governing board who constructed the rules the Supreme Court now determined were unlawful.
Amy Howe – […] Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts explained that college admissions programs can consider race merely to allow an applicant to explain how their race influenced their character in a way that would have a concrete effect on the university. But a student “must be treated based on his or her experiences as an individual — not on the basis of race,” Roberts wrote. The majority effectively, though not explicitly, overruled its 2003 decision in Grutter v. Bollinger, in which the court upheld the University of Michigan Law School’s consideration of race “as one factor among many, in an effort to assemble a student body that is diverse in ways broader than race.”
Justice Sonia Sotomayor dissented, in an opinion that was joined by Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. Sotomayor emphasized that the majority’s decision had rolled “back decades of precedent and momentous progress” and “cement[ed] a superficial rule of colorblindness as a constitutional principle in an endemically segregated society.”
Thursday’s ruling was the latest in a series of challenges to the role of race in university admissions. In both the North Carolina and Harvard cases, the plaintiffs had asked the justices to overrule Grutter. In her opinion for the majority in that case, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor reaffirmed that “student body diversity is a compelling state interest that can justify the use of race in university admissions,” but she warned that race-conscious admissions policies should not last forever. In 25 years, she suggested, “the use of racial preferences will no longer be necessary to further the interest” in diversity. (read more)
Associated Press – “Former President Donald Trump, the current GOP presidential frontrunner, wrote on his social media network that the decision marked “a great day for America. People with extraordinary ability and everything else necessary for success, including future greatness for our Country, are finally being rewarded.”
Former President Barack Obama said in a statement that affirmative action “allowed generations of students like Michelle and me to prove we belonged. Now it’s up to all of us to give young people the opportunities they deserve — and help students everywhere benefit from new perspectives.” (more)
In the bigger picture, the need for control is a reaction to fear.
Think in terms or politics and society – the fear behind the leftist worldview is the fear that someone might withhold things (opportunities, money, whatever) from me. Fear that if you live your life in a way I dislike, it might affect my life. Fear that if you get that job, there will be nothing left for me.
A fear that if you make tons of money, it’s means there’s less money out there for me. So, people who believe in leftist ideologies seek control, manipulation and rules as a means of trying to create guarantees and safeguards against those circumstances they fear.
Conservatives believe in equal opportunity. Leftists believe in equal outcomes.
Modern “liberals”, ie leftists, try to control the world and people to enable their comfort and happiness. Which, as we know, is an endless quest. Trying to control others does nothing in the way of making oneself happy. By extension, voting in this mindset so that government can try to control others will also – shocking – not lead to a happier, more comfortable life.
The conservative (and moderate, independent, but for the sake of expediency, the conservative), on the other hand, relies on himself to meet his own needs. And the tradeoff of being free to live his life as he wishes is also understanding that he has to make peace with how you live yours. By extension, aware that he wants to be able to hold onto this liberty and freedom forever, the conservative votes accordingly, so that everyone can remain free and in charge of his or her own life.
But here’s the crucial difference, perhaps, particularly where misery on the left stems: The conservative does not worry, so to speak, about you.
The conservative person knows that you were born with the same access to self-love, self-empowerment, self-determination and self-reliance that we all were, no matter the circumstances into which you were born. (Think about the millions of people this country has allowed to crawl up from poverty into prosperity – the conservative KNOWS this is possible.) And the conservative believes that if you want prosperity, or a good job, or a good education, you can make it happen – but you have to work hard.
The conservative hopes and intends the free markets bring you all of the affordable and positive opportunities and resources that you need. The conservative also knows that on the other side of that hard work is great reward – material and, more importantly, emotional, spiritual and mental.
The conservative understands that not only is it a waste of time to try to control you, but it’s also actually impossible.
Humans were born to be free. And if we put a roadblock in front of you, you’ll find another way around it. So, we see attempts at control as a waste of resources, energy and time at best, and at worst, creating detrimental results that serve to hinder people’s upward mobility or teach dependence. We see much more efficiency, as well as endless opportunity, in leaving you to your own devices. And we want the same in return.
This is where modern democrats’ mis-view conservatives as heartless. But really, the conservative believes that there is one and one path only to sustainable success and independence – and that is self-empowerment. All other avenues – welfare, affirmative action, housing loans you can’t actually afford – ultimately risk doing a disservice to people as they teach dependence on special circumstances, the govt, or arbitrary assistance (that can disappear tomorrow). And the real danger – they will ALWAYS backfire and leave the recipient in equally or more dire circumstances. Any false improvement will always expire.
The conservative believes in abundance. The liberal believes in scarcity.
The conservative believes man is born free and will be who he is, no matter what arbitrary limitations or rules are put on him. The leftist believes man is perfectible, and by extension, believes a society at large is perfectible, and command and control is justified in the quest to a “perfect” utopian society. (Sounds familiar!)
The conservative tends to be more faithful – and not necessarily in God, but in the ability of the individual to find great strength in himself (or from his God) to get what he needs and to be successful. Therefore, the conservative has an outlet for his fear and disappointment – trust and faith in something bigger.
The leftist believes the system must be perfected in order to enable success. Therefore, disappointment is channeled as anger and blame at the system. Voids are left to be filled by faith in the govt, which they surely then want to come in and “fix” things.
And therein lies the roots of love and fear respectively. For the conservative, when life presents great struggles, he knows he has the power to surmount them. Happiness stems from internal strength and perseverance. For the modern leftist, when life presents great struggles, the system failed, therefore they were at the mercy of a faulty system, and they believe that only when the system is fixed can their life improve. Happiness is built on systemic contingencies, which they will then seek to control or expect someone else to.
One blames himself. The other blames anyone and everyone but himself.
And there it is….. There’s where the meanness comes from. The leftist ideology causes that person to cast anger at the world when things go wrong or appear “unfair.” He constantly chooses only to see the “injustices” – and that makes for a very miserable, mean, blame-casting existence.

The bodycam video is intense and will make you hold your breath. It shows the Allen PD police officer talking to kids about wearing seatbelts just as the mall shooter begins his rampage in the distance.
Without hesitation the cop assesses the scene, grabs his rifle and charges on foot toward the suspect. The officer tracks and engages the shooter, shots are exchanged, and the suspect is neutralized. The intensity of the video is quite dramatic, as you can hear and sense the situation as it unfolds. WATCH:
TEXAS – […] “This video shows how quickly a routine interaction with the public turned into a life-and-death situation,” Allen Police Chief Brian Harvey said in a statement. “The officer recognized the danger, ran toward the gunfire and neutralized the threat — and for his actions, the Allen community is forever grateful.”
The footage, released after a grand jury Tuesday cleared the officer of any wrongdoing, showed he was by his car in the mall parking lot chatting with children and a woman when gunshots suddenly rang out.
“Make sure you wear your seatbelts when mommy’s driving … you be good,” the officer said moments before gunshots could be heard.
He spotted customers fleeing before grabbing his rifle and sprinting toward the sound of shots. (read more)

For his Twitter monologue episode 7, Tucker Carlson walks through the post COVID new authoritarian model of ‘western democracy’, a system of dictatorial fiat and unilateral power intent on retention of control. {Direct Rumble Link}
Within our new system of “western democratic norms” authoritarianism is embraced by both wings of the UniParty vulture as it ensures power for those who benefit. From the dual system of U.S. justice to the dictatorship now present in Ukraine, the common thread is power by a select group of system operators with large control mechanisms.
The retention of this power structure requires the passing of the baton to the next loyalist of the regime. In the case of Joe Biden, Tucker foresees the rise of California Governor Gavin Newsom. I predicted a very specific flow for this transition a year ago and fully agree with Carlson’s prediction. WATCH:
[NOTE: I find it interesting [at 06:29] that Carlson notes the Ukraine war is only opposed by “one opponent”, yet he never mentions the man’s name, Donald Trump. It is a small datapoint, but an omission datapoint nonetheless enhanced by the chosen platform of the Carlson broadcast. I notice nuance. Keep watching.]

At the heart of the IRS whistleblower statements, is a meeting that took place on October 7, 2022, where U.S. Attorney David Weiss told six witnesses that he was not able to pursue a full case against Hunter Biden due to Dept of Justice roadblocks.
Notes and a contemporaneous email in regard to the explosive meeting were taken by IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley, who then testified to Congress and delivered the evidence which contradicts the statements by Attorney General Merrick Garland and Deputy AG Lisa Monaco. Shapley’s lawyers documented some of the participants from the meeting on behalf of their client, as they refute the claims of Main Justice (Garland & Monaco):
Today, buried 21 paragraphs deep in their own reporting, the New York Times now confirms the content of the meeting and the statement by USAO David Weiss.
[New York Times] – […] in mid-2022, Mr. Weiss reached out to the top federal prosecutor in Washington, Matthew Graves, to ask his office to pursue charges and was rebuffed, according to Mr. Shapley’s testimony.
A similar request to prosecutors in the Central District of California, which includes Los Angeles, was also rejected, Mr. Shapley testified. A second former I.R.S. official, who has not been identified, told House Republicans the same story. That episode was confirmed independently to The New York Times by a person with knowledge of the situation.
While Mr. Weiss had the authority to pursue leads that led to jurisdictions other than his own in Delaware, the department’s practices dictated that he secure the approval and cooperation of the U.S. attorneys in those districts before proceeding.
[…] U.S. Attorney Weiss stated that he subsequently asked for special counsel authority from Main D.O.J. at that time and was denied that authority,” he added.
Mr. Weiss, he said, was then told “to follow D.O.J.’s process.”
Mr. Shapley did not say if Mr. Weiss told him who had turned down his request to appoint a special counsel, a decision that can only be made by an attorney general under department regulations.
After Mr. Garland last week denied Mr. Shapley’s account, Mr. Shapley’s lawyer, Mr. Lytle, issued a statement naming six F.B.I. and I.R.S. agents who he said witnessed the exchange, which Mr. Shapley also recorded in a contemporaneous email. (more)
The IRS whistleblower, Mr. Gary Shapley, is also talking to CBS News. WATCH:

I’m not going to say I toldyaso; I’m just smiling.
After a full media cycle of apoplexy and pearl-clutching, which included Andrew Weissmann appearing on MSNBC to declare “It’s the end of Trump,” CBS is now reporting there is no Defense Department memo about attacking Iran – the foundation of the media claims surrounding the leaked audio tapes from Special Counsel Jack Smith.
Worse still, and exactly as CTH previously outlined, despite the claims by CNN about how this audio would be used as the “central element” by the prosecution of Trump, the audio and mysterious memo are not part of the Special Counsel case.
So, why was the transcript of the audio recording used by Jack Smith in the indictment if the audio and nonexistent memo were never going to be used? Because it’s Lawfare, that’s why. Everything, yes including the specific language being deployed (ie “documents containing classification markings“), is hype for public consumption.
(Via CBS) – The Defense Department memo on Iran — at the heart of the now-public audio recording that captured a July 2021 meeting with former President Donald Trump — is not part of the 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information charged in special counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of the former president, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to CBS News.
[…] The document and recording are described in the indictment Smith’s team secured against Trump earlier this month, recounted as an alleged meeting with “a writer, a publisher, and two members of” Trump’s staff, “none of whom possessed a security clearance.” But according to a source familiar with the matter, Trump was not charged with unlawfully holding onto the Iran-related document discussed in the recording.
[…] Multiple sources familiar with the investigation previously told CBS News that defense attorneys were not certain the Iran memo in question was ever recovered and returned to the government. (read more)
There never was an Iran memo document. President Trump was discussing newspaper reports, “newspapers” and stacks of “papers”, as he originally told Brett Baier. Duh.
“There was no document… That was a massive amount of papers and everything else talking about Iran and other things. And it may have been held up or may not, but that was not a document. I didn’t have a document per se. There was nothing to declassify. These were newspaper stories, magazine stories and articles.”
Watch til the end… very important. There is NO IRAN DOCUMENT! Trump was showing newspaper and magazine articles.
Jack Smith is going to have to produce this document, he can't, and he's scared shitless, so he leaked the audio tapes. WE WILL ALL GET TO SEE SMITH'S DOCUMENTS!… pic.twitter.com/pK3dGedLBQ

As Anheuser Busch continues supporting alphabet “pride” and transgender grooming rallies around the nation, the sales of their products continue declining. However, that did not stop the marketing and advertising sector from awarding “creative marketer of the year” to Anheuser Busch at Cannes Lions, which is dubbed the “Oscars for the advertising industry.”
[New York Post] – Sales of Bud Light suffered their steepest weekly drop yet since the beer brand launched its disastrous tie-up with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney, according to the latest data.
In the week ending June 17, sales of the Anheuser-Busch brand fell by an eye-popping 28.5% versus a year ago, according to the most recent sales figures issued by Bump Williams Consulting and NielsenIQ.
That eclipses last week’s 26.8% decline, which beat the previous week’s fall of 24.4%.
Bud Light’s sister brands under the Anheuser-Busch umbrella also experienced lagging sales in the seven-day period which ended June 17, according to the data.
Sales of Budweiser dropped 12.3% while another Anheuser-Busch brand, Michelob Ultra, fell by 4%. (read more)
This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given the negative brand image now created for the product. Factually, the only thing that can reverse the trend for the product is time and diminished memory. As consumers associate the brand with a lifestyle, the use of the product will continue to drop. Holding a Bud Light beverage right now is akin to identifying yourself as a transfemme, or wearing pink pants.
Anheuser-Busch InBev CEO Michel Doukeris reportedly addressed the ongoing boycott’s impact on delivery drivers, salespeople, and wholesalers on a recent earnings call. It is a little bit odd to see A/B positioning themselves as victims of their customers.
“This situation has impacted our people and especially our frontline workers: The delivery drivers, sales representatives, our wholesalers, Bud owners and servers,” Doukeris said, according to ABC News. “These people are the fabric of our business. They are our neighbors, family members, and friends. They are in every community in America. We’ve been doing everything we can to support our teams.”
It would appear that Anheuser-Busch the corporation, are refusing to accept or acknowledge their responsibility in creating this crisis for their brand. The brand image issue was not forced upon them. These were decisions made by the marketing division of the company, and now they place blame for the consequences on their customers.
Every time, in every story, in every print and broadcast update, as the ongoing events are told or written – every visual aide that accompanies the news includes that weird guy with the Bud Light beer in his hand.
This is now a bizarre marketing self-fulfilling prophecy. The articles and news telling updates to the story are now optically affirming the Bud Light brand as a beverage exclusively for transgenders. This level of ongoing public relations failure is something for the record books.
Parents across Canada and the US are furious that woke policies have infiltrated classrooms. Over the weekend, hundreds of Muslim parents protested in front of PM Justin Trudeau’s office – “LEAVE OUR KIDS ALONE!”
Since they are Muslim, the media is having a hard time deeming them far-right extremists and white supremacists. These protests have been ongoing for weeks, and Trudeau has completely ignored their valid concerns. Children are being brainwashed into thinking gender is a choice. Every grade level continues to hammer this idea that most people were not born their biological gender, and kids should question their entire identity without input from parents.
A 2022 study found that the trans youth population has doubled in the past five years and has grown every year since these woke policies reached Canadian and American public schools. The study only studied youth over the age of 13, but said the sharpest uptick was among the 13 to 17-year-old population. They claim people now feel more comfortable coming out, but if that were the case, older generations who understand the concept would be noting a sharper uptick. The study simply shows the grooming is working.
Why are our governments pushing our children to question their identity? Something is very wrong.
