It’s too late.
After losing 12% of stock value, $16 billion in company worth, more than 25% of sales and dropping out of the #1 position for beer in the USA, Anheuser Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth finally announced, “Today we took the very difficult but necessary decision to eliminate a number of positions across our corporate organization.”
The effort is described by Oxygen Financial CEO Ted Jenkin as corporate speak, where “simplify and reduce layers” can be translated to “clean up the corporate mess,” make the shareholders happy and increase the stock price. However, Anheuser Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth, a former CIA operative and woke corporate leader, waited too long and still doesn’t recognize the issue.
Stick a fork in Anheuser Busch and Bud Light, they’re done.
None of this was accidental or unforeseeable. Factually, former Budweiser Light Vice President of Marketing, Alissa Heinerscheid, told Anheuser Bush executives exactly what they were getting when they hired the Wharton business school graduate. Her intent was to bring a new cultural wokeism into the company, and the cultural wokeism is exactly what the company wanted.
Anheuser Busch got exactly what they structurally set themselves up to require. VP of Marketing, Alissa Heinerscheid, did not fail in her job – she delivered exactly what she was hired to generate. The infection will not be removed or cured by firing approximately 400 corporate white-collars who executed the Heinerscheid vision for the company, because it was not her vision alone.
The Anheuser Busch CEO and Board of Directors created the space for Heinerscheid to operate, approved of every move, gleefully celebrated the intent and purpose, and yet now stand back jaw-agape at the outcome? The time for pearl clutching, and reactionary perspectives is in the rear-view mirror. Do you really think the same CEO who approved the Heinerscheid agenda is really capable of removing the Heinerscheid culture?
Stop pretending. A generational collapse of a once heralded brand is complete. No one is going to touch Budweiser and the brand is permanently destroyed. How can I be so certain? Check out the video after the article.
[Side Note – The collapse is so complete and consequential, even General Mills is in damage control mode, scrubbing all connections after supporting and enlisting Alissa Heinerscheid in their college internship program.]
(Fox News) – […] According to a letter sent to employees, laid-off staff will receive severance pay, six months of continued company-paid health insurance benefits and resources to help find a new job.
The controversy embroiling Anheuser-Busch over Bud Light’s short-lived partnership with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney has sent shockwaves through the company and the beer-making industry.
The Ardagh Group, a global glass producer who contracts with the Anheuser-Busch company, recently announced that it will be closing its plants in North Carolina and Louisiana in July, putting roughly 645 employees out of a job.
The bottling company did not reveal the reason for the move, but an investigation by WRAL reportedly found that the plants are shuttering because of tanking Bud Light sales.
Data from Evercore ISI shows that in the 12-week period leading up to July 2, Bud Light’s sales volume fell by 27.1% over that timeframe — which includes much of the aftermath following Mulvaney’s partnership with the beer brand.
Will Hild, the executive director of Consumers’ Research, noted that customers are now seeing firsthand how much power they have to control the market and “make their voices heard.” (more)
Pretending has consequences….
This is a video of Anheuser Busch CEO Brenden Whitworth on June 28th, explaining the issue as he sees it. Stop for a minute, just pull back to the 30,000-foot level, and look at the basics.
Does this guy with a scruffy beard, sneakers and a business suit with no tie, look like a corporate executive who understands stewardship? Not even close.
CEO Brenden Whitworth represents the culture of popular style in corporate management. Marketing VP Alissa Heinerscheid is what you get with this specific type of CEO.
Effective corporate leadership is boring, bland, steady, stable, consequential to the core mission and yet brutally focused on consumer value and long-term steady outcomes.
Yes, in a modern era some stuffiness needs to be removed from the cultural climate, Tim Cook is a great example of that. However, Brenden Whitworth is what you get when you take “popular image” or progressive creep too far.
Who Brenden Whitworth is, meaning the stuff inside this guy, reflects exactly why Donald Trump did not put Don Trump Jr. in charge of Trump Corporation. Donald Trump chose Eric Trump to run the company for this exact reason. [Oh snap, was that my outside voice?!]
Bud Light is done. WATCH:
Get woke, go broke – example number 14,118…
The CEO isn’t going broke.
My guess … the Golden Parachute Executives are wrong again … they think laying off thousands of blue collar workers will make MAGA look bad and will retaliate and vote RAT & WOKE instead … it won’t.
The layoffs will affect workers “across every corporate function” but will not impact front line workers, such as warehouse staff, drivers and salespeople, the company spokesperson said.
Anymore “blue collar” means anyone who actually works for a living … as opposed to ESG*DEI*CEI*CRT
Executives and Politicians.
The farmers are doing fine, Modelo is buying more. I don’t know how a ceo keeps his job after driving his company into a big ditch, who does he think he is a politician or something.
So much corruption across the boards that these creatures to ideology fail upwards as they suck the companies dry as they die.
Or is that they suck the companies dry as they DEI?
Funny you spoke out loud about Don Jr. That’s been my thought for a long time.
Me too and I’m glad Sundance put it out in the open.
For me, it’s not just about corporate personna but look at the stability of Eric and Lara with each other and as a family vs Don Jr and his chosen “family” path.
This also speaks loudly to me with regard to what you’re getting in your organization.
Kimberly…the political groupie whose ex is Gavin Newsome…isn’t helping Don Jr any….
Kimberly should invest in an “Elegant Lady” program so that she can learn to wear classy clothes, hair, and especially make up. Prince William’s wife, Kate, learned how to go from typical college girl to an elegant woman.
WOW never even thought of that! Bing bing bing!
Yep! Don Jr. has his place but it’s not running the Trump organization.
Love Don Jr.
Husband and I could see some time ago Eric is the right choice to run the Trump company. Eric is ‘steady Eddie’, Don Jr., is the energetic and bright showman.
KG, his main squeeze means no dice for Don Jr in a leadership position. Hang out with him, ok but nothing more.
Now let’s do Disney!
Won´t happen because there is no easy alternative and people love Disney, they will decline some though.
There are also hoards of foreign visitors and my guess is many are newly arrived.
Compliments of our tax-dollars, endless welfare benefits and Disney -too.
Disney is in a lot more trouble than people want to believe. They ran out all of the talent that knew how to tell a story. They brought in Kathleen Kennedy (Spielberg’s coffee girl) to run Lucasfilm into the ground and she has been perfect for the job. The parks are deteriorating when they cannot afford to get the experience back up to par. Now they are going to have to come up with 20 billion or so to complete the required purchase of Hulu. It won’t be long before the company is running on fumes. Iger is Wentworth on steroids.
Plus construction is nearing completion on an entirely new Universal theme park in Orlando. Epic Universe is on par with the Magic Kingdom plus it’s going to be brand new and be a state of the art experience based on media content that is a lot more relevant than a much of Disney’s content library.
A TWO BILLION DOLLAR theme park is being planned near Tulsa, OK to rival Disney. Scheduled to open 2025. Pretty sure OK is a red state. So hopefully this comes to fruition and everyone supports it.
Sorry read this last week and cannot remember where 🙁
Oklahoma is a red state. It’s so red that the state GOP will try to keep Trump off the ballot thinking that there won’t be enough people stay home to lose their power. They’re wrong.
Senators, governor, state house, dogcatcher. NONE will get my vote without Trump top of ticket.
Oklahoma is OK…every County went red…thinking of buying property when Texas…soon to be Tejas goes blue in a few years…
EVERY red state has been taken over administratively by the far left. Case in point Utah, which at the operational is as lefty as lefty can be. Texas is another example of this.
This park will be the size of Magic Kingdom and celebrate America.

Disney has been such a disappointment… We took the kids there so much that they got sick of going. Owned every VHS, then DVD. Refuse to spend any money on their woke crap for past few years….
We have vacation ownership at Vidanta in Mexico. In their Puerto Vallarta location, they are finally opening a massive Vidanta World theme park that has been under construction for almost 10 years.
It’s the first of its kind in Mexico and I hope it takes away some of the Disney park attendance…
I believe you are wrong because Disney offered locals in Florida discounts to visit the place and their numbers dropped even further.
Many people in this country have begun to see Corporate Disney and what they are trying to do to the American youth.
That “love” has been rapidly waning lately. People are tiring of Disneys continual attempts to sexualize their children and promote acceptance of perverted sexual behavior via overt and subliminal messages in the company’s movies and television programs.
My mom has passed, she loved, loved Disney. She actually worked there when they retired to Fla. Mom loved rainbows too. Mom would be sad to see how Disney and rainbows have been hijacked.
Everytime someone tells me they are going to Disney, I discount their opinion on anything of consequence.
Wish we could. The folks here is SE Louisiana live for Disney. No matter how demonic it gets. There is no calling it out here. I have been verbally dressed down plenty for not pretending.
The Orlando Rat needs to meet an exterminator.
Disney has lost billions and billions in a very short period of time.
Not one single American should ever pay hundreds of dollars to walk into the evil kingdom ever again.
It has already been done to Disney. They have had massive layoffs from their parks and their last 10 movies have been losers costing Disney almost a billion dollars so far.
The trouble with Disney and AB is that they will not ever apologize or change. They both are doubling down on woke and grooming.
I gave them VERY good advice. They wouldn’t take it.
Word has it they wanted to destroy Bud Light to get out from under some labor union… I don’t know if that’s true. But people targeted ABI and not just Bud Light…. so… yeah… idiots.
While this great and all, I’m really looking at the NFL to see where we are on anti-wokeness. Last year and before that, people were still watching the games. The attendance was lower in most games but I think the super bowel was still packed. I would like to see the public resolve to completely destroy the NFL. We don’t need it. And that, more than anything else, will send the message…
The message is STOP MESSING WITH OUR CHILDREN!
the NCAA should be destroyed first or together, they were the forefront to this legalization of child sex.
Throw in the US Women National Soccer team for their wokeness and disrespect for America…..
I vote the NBA, bigly. Read up on all the arenas they lent out for “get out the vote”
prior to the 2020 elections. Including the one where Ruby Freeman got her luggage out.
I think that, altogether there were 28 NBA arenas that were utilized to help nudge the
election the “proper way”.
Now, for the next Bud Light. Still working on this, but I think that it’s time for Treepers
and their friends to let Fulton County , GA and it’s POS DA know exactly how we regard
her actions.
All roads go through Fulton County, GA. At least 1-75, 1-85, 1-20, 285, and Georgia 400.
Since all those roads pass through Fulton , and since almost any plane flight many
board winds up in Atlanta, maybe it’s time for people to be pro active on where they
spend their money.
Which is ANYWHERE but Fulton for flights, car gas, meals, motel rooms, shopping,
Braves tickets, concerts…..
For those passing through Georgia, it’s about an hour either direction that you’ll be
going through Fulton. Gas up before Lake Alatoona if you’re going south on 1-75.
Gas up before McDonough if you’re coming north on 1-75. Gas up around Douglasville
if you’re going East on 1-20, gas up in Conyers or Covington if you’re going west
on 1-20. Get gas before you hit 285. If you’re coming South on 400, gas up in Forsyth
County. If you’re on 1-85 heading west, gas up by Satellite Blvd at the latest. 1-85
east , gas up in Fayetteville or Peachtree City. These boundaries are also for meals,
hotels, entertainment.
Start practicing this now. Especially if you’re Atlanta metro: ( mainecoone, Snellville
Bob, and others.
Start practicing this NOW . I’m going to post this basic idea numerous times, on different
threads. First, we avoid purchases in Fulton. Next we let Chamber of Commerce types know
exactly why. But some rehearsal is needed.
And if anyone reading this is a long distance truck driver: screen shot this post, and share
it with anyone else you know that’s pissed about all the Trump indictments.
I live in a rural area near Fulton Co. I’ve boycotted Fulton Co. For 40 years. I would drive to Birmingham AL or Nashville TN to take a flight…
Thanks for being proactive, far in advance. Now, get your likeminded friends and
neighbors in on the Fulton buycot.The DA’s ramping up. Pass the word out to
all your friends, relatives that live in your area or pass through. Not a cent spent in
Fulton.
I used to live in Cobb County, mid 80s. Someone told me that 350,000 cars drove
past the Cumberland Mall, at 285 and 75 EVERYDAY. Imagine how many cars drive
through Fulton County altogether. Atlanta metro is around 4.6 million. It wasn’t even
2 million back when all those cars were driving around Cumberland Mall.
In this regard, it is very important to note the strong influence communist China wields on the NBA.
Throw in Nascar. With noose gate and many other woke agenda. For as many years as I can remember, you could NOT get a ticket to a Bristol race. Now the stands are half full. The announcers brag about sold out crowd,then show view of empty seats…..
Tie in the NFL with the destruction of the family. Hmmmm…
Yes. Absolutely. When I first saw a part of the half-time show where some women were dancing in what looked like some Black Panthers militants in the wake of Michael Brown or Treyvon Martin? I just walked away. My middle son at the time didn’t get it. He gets it now though.
“super bowel”
Fitting.
Sounds like a movement.
“the super bowel was still packed”
I see what you did there.
It’s good to be recognized once in a while!
Well, the best-selling beer in America is now Modelo which is made in Mexico City by Anheuser Busch. It is distributed in the USA by a different company to satisfy Anti-trust concerns. The thing is that they are still making roughly the same amount of beer, but in Mexico, far away from our labor unions.
.
Right. Stop buying Modelo!
.
I believe either alexander the great or napoleon took control of entertainment/theater/and sports colosseums and used entertainment to both brainwash and mesmerize, consume time of the populations.
It is being done to us with “entertainment” in sports, tv, video, tik tok. OUr kids and young adults are addicted to the neurochemistry of so many forms of entertainment, to where there is no motivation for productivity, wealth building, skill building, talent building.
On top of that drugs, alcohol, porn, sex, free for all in any kind of sexual/romantic pleasure without responsibility
The only way I know to combat that is at the spiritual level, making character development, service to others, self improvement, our goals.
Church, honor societies, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Masons, Lions, Elks, 4H, Jaycees, YMCA, Y Indian guides
Family, community, neighborhoods
Professional organizations supporting professional excellence, not turf protection
Of course all of these organizations have been attacked, and many suffered great hits. ESPECIALLY the educational processes of our children.
Our founders were right: The strength of our republic depends on the moral character of our citizens.
Right on!!!
Unfortunately, the Scouting movement is no longer what it was. That’s a hard no from me.
And what will you direct boys to instead.
There comes a point where everything is corrupt
This country condones and enforces far worse than what was done to Scouts. Will you leave the country as well?
The super bowel isn’t average football fans. Sure, a few will cough up or go into further debt for the ridiculous ticket price as a once in a lifetime trip to see the team they rooted for all their lives.
But the vast majority of super bowel attendence is the rich & powerful who want to be seen and prove how rich they are.
Hence Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch being in attendance at the recent Super Bowl.
“None of this was accidental or unforeseeable.”
Exactly, and what does that mean? To begin with, who made money by shorting, or by other devious means?
Yup. It was purposeful, not accidental.
This is all one bad high school play we are witnessing. Not sure where it’s going but whatever it is, it was all gamed out. Not some accident.
I welcome the “tranny can”. At least it tells us the truth about the company. When they put an American flag on the can, they are not Patriots, they are just trying to sell you beer. Same here.
What’s worse, boycotting a brand because you don’t like what’s on the can or buying it because you do like what’s on the can?
You’re pretty much being duped either way. It’s just marketing. Nothing more, nothing less.
It’s the same product inside the can.
The product inside the can is crap.
This guy is just now figuring out that consumers make or break a brand? This guy is an idiot
This is what the Bolsheviks churn out of their US education centers. They only graduate the conforming, not the rebellious.
He’s a very smart guy doing exactly what he has been carefully trained and programmed to do: destroy capitalism one company at a time.
Crowing over the Bud Light boycott doesn’t match Anheuser-Busch’s reality because:
LIST: All Brands Owned by Bud Light’s Parent Company Anheuser-Busch
https://www.cf.org/news/list-all-brands-owned-by-bud-lights-parent-company-anheuser-busch/
ALL of their beer brands would need to be boycotted to grab their attention. Merely switching from one to another won’t do it.

Just like a virus.. it’s going to spread further into more companies. Plus it’s not quite over yet. Not until those at the executive/director level suffer the same fate. With the added bonus of never getting another corporate job anywhere in this country ever again.
They are now learning the effects of the disease. The disfigurement, the inability to earn income, no longer welcome in society…. yeah… this virus has a healthy dose of public backlash that they will want to vaccinate themselves against that disease.
And there will be more movies about the truth of history since Sound of Freedom. We are on the march. Sean Stone, (son of Oliver) has the correct vibe.
Wonder if there is some connection between CIA guys and lies?
oh, i do.
I hope AB is reduced to selling Clydesdale steaks.
Hey leave the horses alone, please!
VikingMom: I agree. The Clydesdales should be taken into protective custody until a new home (stable) can be found for them.
A few years ago, I happened to meet a middle-aged gentleman whose grandparents sold the first Clydesdales to AB. Also told me a lot about the breed and how the sale came about. Very informative story….
Once a spook always a spook.
The top tier of AB including the former spook should be removed and every woke individual in AB.
The end is near but it’s just one of the many companies in this country that deserve the exact same thing.
Your $$$ is more powerful than you think.
Agree but remember that AB is owned by a Belgium firm IB and the EU is totally woke so these directions came from corporate or at least they (Belgium) were happy to move in the woke direction. Totally fail to understand their customer.
Yep, just your common everyday euro trash.
That makes creating a cashless society more important to these people.
True … but WeThePeople are not like the socialist sheep who’ve allowed themselves to be led to slaughter.
Duce-bag-a-Rama
He looks like a pastor at a new trendy hip startup church.
Totally. However once that pastor has renegotiated his salary and perks, he’ll shed the tweed and trousers and go cargos (no socks) and Basquiat tshirt.
I have worked for several companies who thought they could lay off enough people to bring back profitability. Never worked.
This has World Economic Forum written all over it. Sure enough:

Ebonics was funny.
WOKE Speak is dangerous … while made up, it is presented as sophisticated state-of-the-art and technically current verbiage … it is regurgitated at work/meetings/zooms/Boards/Seminars … with nodding minions … pretending to understand, when no one does … the meaning of these made up business words are fluid … mean anything the ESG*DEI*CEI*CRT talking head needs them to mean at the moment … do you understand (frattie) ?
minions nod.
AB is all-in on “halocratic” means of achieving “tough climate goals.” Whatever.
Drinking anything of theirs is betrayal of your own values. How about drinking water or something non-WEF? That will accomplish more than a targeted boycott.
One thing I didn’t see before now was his “service” in the CIA. That explains EVERYTHING. No one had to force him to do this. He flipping WANTED to do this. Enemy of the people.
Moreover, what qualifications and experience serving in the CIA would ever mount to what it takes to be a CEO of a major worldwide manufacturer/distributor?
Answer: NONE
Same M.O. that brought FBI lawyers into Twitter
Do not forget … Peter Strzok was on loan to the FBI from the CIA.
that was just a fig leaf, he was the CIA’s eyes on the inside of the FBI the whole time, and Strzok was Lisa Page’s handler in order to work her for inside information on the DOJ portion of the ongoing op that the CIA would otherwise not be privy to.
wow .. and wow .. when do you think Lisa figured out Peter was using her?
…and she loved every minute of it.
The other interesting – “all in the family” detail … Strzok’s wife – Melissa Hoffman, appointed to US Securities & Exchange by Obama … visited the White House often – in the evening – with Arkansas Debutante and “friend” Mary Jacoby … married to Glenn Simpson of GPS Fusion and “RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA” fame.
Maybe a perfect way to keep valJay and her Puppet up-dated on the Trump Sabotage, without leaving a paper-trail.
“Future moving Forward”. “Forward” is a good, WEF, ESG, DEI, Communist “dog whistle” Comrade Whitworth.
Let’s go Brenden.
Another phrase for PROG.
Good read and analysis Sundance. Agreed
Why does this former spook still have a job?
Former CIA…gots lotsa goods on lotsa people?
Fiduciary Responsibility.
It’s not these woke clowns’ money to manage and spend on their Utopian wet dreams.
How many other organizations or social media companies employ these destructive anti American spooks ?
an alternative theory is that Wall St. is beta testing a mechanism to drive P/E ratios back to the historical baseline while maintaining plausible deniability. Intentionally crashing a stock is a tricky gambit in the current HFT-rigged markets.
Nobody seems to check the short interest on these companies before the “woke” destruction plan kicks in. If they did they might notice significant short positions are applied and removed with great subtlety and strangely precise timing (see Buzzy Kronegard and 9/11)
few things as powerful and persistent as Satan’s effect on willing minions…
Budwiser was a “lifestyle brand.” All American cool. People drank it because of the image of the good time party beer carefully crafted over decades. Skateboarding dogs in Hawaiian shirts. Croaking frogs that say BUD-WEIS-ER. Friends greeting each other, “WAZZUP!”
And pure Americana and patriotism. Teams of Clydesdale horses pulling antique beer wagons. Country music. Rock and roll. Sporting events. “Here Comes the King.”
And then, they blew it all up by partnering with an especially obnoxious sexual deviant, a cross dressing attention whore, and getting in bed with a movement most people rightly suspect promotes the sexualization of very young children, grooming, and pedophilia.
And that’s when Budweiser discovered that about 1/3 of their customers only drink it because it’s cool. Or at least, it was.
Brilliant comment, Jeff.
A lot of the executives being laid off worked hard to create that priceless but gossamer image of AB.
Don;t forget the cute puppy and his friends the Clydesdales.. and the cute cowboy guy
in the commericial.
Or the post 9/11 one, of the Clydesdales taking a knee. Probably the apex of Budweiser’s image.
On a certain level that ad is disgusting, considering the end goal is to get you to buy beer.
Yes-it wasn’t just a deviation from brand identity, it was waaay on the other side. Shocking when you think about it.
The ascendant leftism in the culture creates corporate executives with contempt for the products they sell and their customers.
My gas station Petro-Can sent me an email urging me to donate my Petro (bonus) Points to their favorite charity.
A few days later I got another email demanding to know why I hadn’t complied.
The rudeness was staggering.
Shortly after a hacker destroyed their entire bonus points program. Ha!
I guess I wasn’t the only (former) customer offended.
How’d they get your email, by joining their points ruse?
Gas in Canada is mostly tax, Greg, thanks to Trudeau.
I get 10 cents per litre off gas using Petro Points, and a litre is tiny.
Americans don’t comprehend the taxes paid everywhere else.
Who the F would make this guy the CEO of anything. I can’t get through the 1st minute of this deliberate softball ‘interview’. The people who are being fired should go visit with this guy.
It is a signature weakness of American companies that the people whose abysmal decisions cause such downturns are usually the last to feel the impact of those decisions, thus making them more likely moving forward.
But in the ‘interview’ he wants to make it clear that he is responsible. Don’t see this guy resigning or getting fired. I shouldn’t be rash, but I don’t like this guy at all (quite the understatement).
“he wants to make it clear that he is responsible”
Reminds of how Hillary announced that she was ‘responsible’ [in connection with what she did with all of her emails]
Notice in both cases (and in many others where slime-balls have they noses pushed in their s***) they NEVER say “I am responsible for this calamity which caused so much pain and suffering for so many other people.” No, the content of the ‘for’ prepositional phrase is vague and a lot more abstract, and is in some other part of the discussion i.e., it is basically as far away from and as disconnected from the word ‘responsible’ as possible.
Aaaw. Here’s my sad face.
He looks like a republican, like that former mom-jeans speaker from wisconsin, or McCarthy for that matter.
Brendan Whitworth is creepy. 🤮
Former CIA.
Another CEO without a tie signaling a casual attitude.
But look at who owns the stock in all the companies who have gone woke, even Cracker Barrel who put out rainbow colored rockers on the porches of their restaurants. You guessed it, Vanguard, BlackRock and State Street. Check Target too.
Cracker barrel in my area did no such thing. They would have gone out of bio if they had
That “outside voice” has been creeping into more and more of Sundance’s posts lately (see: Jason Miller, Donald Trump Jr.).
Who will be the next unexpected target of a Sundance truth bomb? (It was almost exactly a year ago that Sundance set the Treehouse on its ear by telling a bunch of uncomfortable truths about Ron DeSantis that an adoring public was not ready to hear or accept. But, look where Rhonda is, a year later.)
THIS!!! I want to know about Jason Miller and why he blocked SD!? this is scaring me because he is so close to DJT!
Many, many people I know are being pushed out of their 30+ year long, careers by the younger generation.
They are written up for racism and intolerance, by youth that despise them.
Forcing retirements because of lack of respect, by the youngins, who yearn for their expertise, learned skills and knowledge, but will NEVER do the hard work to attain it rightfully.
No ladder climbing for them. And they have deceitfully learned how to take everything away from work collegues, through D.E.I.
The plans are working expertly. They need us all to just get out of the way and THEY DON’T CARE HOW.
It’s THEIR world and we are taking up space. My money and my preferences as a consumer mean absolutely nothing. Loyalty seems like a cruel joke.
The Churches are even in on the action.
Corporate America is being eaten alive. It’s a hostle take over, just like everything else.
Y-E-S-S-S-S Ma!!!!
This debacle is NO accident. In Bev has been beyond frustrated with AB USA for quite a while. The current doofus Whitworth is doing what HE WAS HIRED TO DO. For years the basic conservatism of the St.Louis based AB execs was driving In Bev crazy.
In Bev owns Modelo and was frustrated by the anti-trust set up. By tanking AB USA it facilitates the ascendancy of Modelo and hopefully a regain of their Mexican based Modelo brand control while ELIMINATING those AB execs they viewed as “problematic” Do a deep dive into who is being laid off…..
St.Louisan born and bred here whose family’s AB stock sent me to college and paid for my wedding. My insider knowledge is long and deep. The reason I am familiar with the In Bev/WEF plot….after retirement I went to grad school in the UK and what I learned while there was shocking. While it made me pessimistic/realistic…it helped me realize we are in Biblical end times and praying for God’s mercy on us all and our Country!
I think a big part of the problem is the labor pool they have to hire from. I believe it is so tight that even the dregs are hired as long as they can show up and fog a mirror.
My wife and I experienced this at a big box building supply store just yesterday.
We went in looking to spend several hundred dollars on plumbing supplies. I had questions on certain types that they had, and whether they had other types in their yard. I found three girls stacking supplies and asked if they could help with questions. One stayed where she was while the other two came over to look at what they had on the shelf.
Both had ZERO motivation to determine if they had other supplies and acted upset because I was interrupting whatever they were doing. I asked if they could actually look up in their computer if they had other supplies, and her attitude changed from being inconvenienced to being extremely annoyed at having to do more than just guessing at what they had in stock.
She clicked around on the computer and scrolled so fast you could tell she was not reading anything and gave me a snotty response that what she had shown me was all they had. I asked her about other compatible supplies, and her response was clear she had no intention of trying to help further. By this time, her supervisor of the department came up. I told the annoyed one not to bother, I would just find everything myself.
My wife and I went back to the section to look at what supplies they had and the supervisor followed. My wife explained what we had been told the week before by another guy who worked in that department. The supervisor explained that only the three girls were there today (as if that explained something) and my wife said it didn’t matter if they were girls, they should know what was in their department, or at least try help find it.
We ultimately found everything we were looking for with a little help at times from the supervisor when she wasn’t distracted by something and left.
I contemplated talking with a manager, but then thought it wouldn’t have mattered anyway.
The attitude is so pervasive in so many places now I knew it would be a waste of time.
Why did you continue to purchase there?? This is something that is encountered constantly. I usually walk out and purchase elsewhere. Pushback is the only thing we have left!
On another note, ever notice when someone is *really* helpful – we can’t stop gushing about how nice they were and how helpful. Reason for that is, it’s no longer the norm. Just sayin.
I keep going there because they are the cheapest around for what I need and often have it in stock. It is becoming hit or miss on staff since the person I talked with the week before was incredibly helpful.
These stores usually have staff that are helpful, so it was a shock to get two with such attitudes.
Other places with the same supplies often have much worse staff, don’t carry what I want so I would have to order not what I want, but what would work, then drive back to them to pick it up if they bothered to call and tell me it was in.
You are right on about this dude. If he had been fired in the first round and an abject apology made, all this would have been history. Now there’s a chance the brand will be…and the number one market already is.
Against my better instinct, I watched about 8.7 seconds of the interview.
Whenever lefties say anything about “having a conversation,” they don’t want to have any conversation. They want full compliance and silence.
I shall spend the weekend repenting for clicking on an MSM link. Please forgive me.
A small donation to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or the United “A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste” Negro College Fund will sooth your seared soul, friend.
I couldn’t even watch to the end. That guy needs to be fired! He never gave a straightforward answer to any question. He also did not strike me as a CEO type.
He has now destroyed an American company so utterly that I am shocked In-Bev hasn’t fire him yet! He has no remorse whatsoever. Of course, the fact that he is (ex)CIA could be why an historic American company has been eviscerated.
I feel bad for the thousands of workers who are in the supply chain for this brand. I just hope they can find jobs with the other brands that took the market share from Anheuser-Busch.
I use to drink Bud light but NO MORE and never will again. Yuengling Flight has become my beer of choice.
From CIA to beer: Brendan Whitworth’s path to CEO of Anheuser-Busch

I never really thought it tasted great to be honest. It tasted weak with not much flavor. I used to like the original Rolling Rock from Latrobe, PA in the green bottle. They have recently sold the company and it is not as good.
I cannot stand light beer but since I don’t drink much beer I can afford a full beer.
AB owns rolling rock.
It seems to me that seeing this as a matter of just desserts is very myopic. I think we need to be clear on the layout of the battlefield. Remember how Rush used to go on about the deliberate destruction of the NFL? That was real, although I’m not sure he saw past the leftist infiltration at the time and realized that those were early signs of the Great Reset.
Yes, as has been said elsewhere, this has WEF written all over it. What it is is the deliberate targeting of iconic American companies, companies that are part of the American brand and the fabric of our culture and history. I remember how Gibson guitars, another iconic piece of Americana, got targeted during the early Obama years.
These two companies, Budweiser and Disney, are being forced into self-destructive decisions. Disney, for example, is unable to get funding anymore for non-woke projects.
Turns out that, if you own enough of a corporation, you can make it do anything, including commit suicide.
I don’t drink Bud and think it’s swill, but I can’t be happy about the takedown of a major player in our culture and recent history anymore than I can about the toppling of a Robert E. Lee statue. It’s the same damned thing. Not sure we can do much about it, but we don’t need to be happy and vindictive because they got what they had coming to them.
“Remember how Rush used to go on about the deliberate destruction of the NFL? That was real, although I’m not sure he saw past the leftist infiltration at the time and realized that those were early signs of the Great Reset.”
Let’s keep in mind, though, that what you call the “deliberate destruction” of the NFL touched Rush Limbaugh in two direct ways: 1) His dismissal from ESPN for a non-racist observation about Donovan McNabb that became a coordinated cause celebre two days after the fact; and 2) the denial by the NFL’s other owners to allow Rush to bid on purchasing the then-St. Louis Rams.
They would still be in St. Louis if Rush’s bid had been accepted.
Long term though, the plan all along was to move the Rams back to L.A. eventually.
Rams coming to St. Louis was the first time I ever heard about paying $1,000/ticket just to buy a ticket. I worked for a pharmaceutical company and sent them a company check for $6,000 for six tickets. Company was gobbled up by a pharmaceutical company from Kansas City, too long ago to remember which one. I wondered when (and if) they ever returned any of the purchase ticket money, who it went to since the company I sent it for was no longer.

Dump Budweiser and Bud Light beer.
Dump Budweiser stock.
It should be getting clear that children are commodities to Progs. For the few they approve of thru birth, make them rubber stamps of the parent(s). Look at those children in school Pride events, wearing rainbows like 21st century nazi children.
“Do you really think the same CEO who approved the Heinerscheid agenda is really capable of removing the Heinerscheid culture?”
I never once thought this after they repeatedly had the chance to do what typical corporate nitwits do when they step in a pile of poo….vaguely apologize, offer a lame excuse, claim it will never happen again and move on forever ignoring the mess they made.
Instead, they acted for weeks as if consumers were just redneck hicks too stupid to understand their brilliance.
They first went silent for a while, tried continuing to support the filth on the quiet, offered insulting ads to try convince the stupid rednecks they understood what they wanted, then added insult to injury with more stupid ads long after the damage became a sucking head wound.
Idiots.
He can’t apologize or the place will be burned down. So sad that he is willing to sacrifice his employees for a demonic ideology
Karma. Love it
Going down
The Whitworth needs to file as a Democrat presidential candidate immediately. He rattles off the exact same weasel talk they all use. He refused to answer a simple yes or no question three times over. He had a friendly queer-centric panel and offered generic support without admitting failure.
The Whitworth claims that Bud Lite was intended to BringPeopleTogetherTM. He wasn’t able to accomplish that with toothy Mulvaney as the spokesqueer.
So, time to run for office and try it in politics. Good luck Whit.
How can he be smiling? He is responsible for devastating the lives of so many employees.
