Bud Light sales fell for the sixth consecutive week as the nationwide boycott continued over the beer company’s partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. One store, according to the New York Post, is charging $3.49 for a 24-pack — about $0.15 for one can — to get rid of unwanted beer. Bud Light volumes for the week ending May 13 fell 28.4 percent, following a 27.7 percent drop the prior week, the report said, citing Beer Business Daily. (snip) Since then, sales have tanked and Anheuser-Busch has so far lost nearly $19 billion, with shares down 14 percent. Some stores are effectively giving the beer away for free.

I happened down the beer aisle in a big grocery store a week ago. All the other brands had various levels of stock, below the cooler rail, but tge BudLite was still piled high, not one case out of the stack. Nobody was buying the stuff.

Bud light has become the tipping point for people frustrated with the whole woke trans agenda to lash back -- saying we're not going to take it anymore. Too bad for the King of Beers a.k.a. Drag Queen of Beers, who is now the poster child for woke insanity.

AB still has not learned their lesson and it has been a good hard lesson. They could offer me cases of Bud Light for free and pay for shipping and I would turn it down. Business writers of the future now have a great topic for a chapter on what not to do if you want to make a profit on a product.

In the 1980’s Jesse Jackson started a boycott against AB. In the late 90s the shakedown ended when AB sold a large distributorship to two of Jackson’s sons who had no experience in the beer business. The Jackson boycott was a drop in the beer bucket compared to this one. We can hope that Jacksons have thousands of cases of past sales date Bud products on pallets at their warehouse.

California Democrats, ostensibly “pro-choice,” want to restrict the choices provided by anti-abortion pregnancy crisis centers but have not succeeded in regulating them out of existence, despite many efforts to do so. (snip) Some of California’s past attempts to regulate pregnancy crisis centers have been ruled unconstitutional. In the case of National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA) v. Becerra in 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a California law requiring the pregnancy centers to post information about where to obtain abortions. The Court, in a 5-4 decision, found the law violated the First Amendment by compelling speech.

Prounoun obsession is the ultimate form of narcissism; it’s entirely self-focused to think that everyone should bend to the whim of what you want to call yourself.

The idea that polluters should pay reparations for climate change is gaining steam among advocates. Some environmentalists and academics argue the companies or states that are most significantly contributing to the climate crisis should be made to compensate the people bearing the brunt of its impacts. Advocates have been calling for such reparations for years, especially since evidence emerged that fossil fuel companies were aware of the impact of carbon emissions. But the idea is now more practically achievable due to scientific advances, said Adrien Salazar, policy director at the nonprofit Grassroots Global Justice. He pointed to the increased sophistication
