Anheuser-Busch has employed a lobbying firm with GOP roots in Congress following its controversial partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
American Accountability Foundation has written a letter to Congressional staffers, per Fox Business, alleging Origin Advocacy has sent its founder and a partner to Capitol Hill on the brewer's behalf. Disclosures confirm that Origin Advocacy added Anheuser-Busch as a client this year. Founder Sean McClean and Origin partner Emily Lynch, with their former experiences as Republican staffers, have already begun "making the rounds," according to AAF.
McClean is a former legislative director for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), while Lynch was previously employed by former Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) as a legislative assistant. AAF alleges the pair are attempting to "red-wash Bud Light's disastrous decision to partner with a man pretending to be a woman and tell you the company really does respect conservative values."
"They're even making the shamefully offensive equivalency argument that their transgender activist beer can is just like their beer can honoring WWII vets," the letter penned by AAF President Tom Jones continued. "They're telling offices, ‘Anheuser-Busch sometimes creates commemorative cans. ... Honor Flight can [for] example.’ If partnering with a trans activist wasn't shameful enough, equating Dylan Mulvaney to a World War II hero is really beyond the pale."

Smart move. Where would they find better experts in the field of hiding support for weirdo/pervert stuff while pretending to be conservative?
They must think the GOP is conservative.
Doubling down on clueless.
Are you calling Trump a RINO?
Grow up Erik. Nobody is 100%,
And that includes you.
Trump is siding with RINOs more and more often. That is disturbing. It seems like Trump wants Haley as his running mate.
That would be a big RINO move.
IMO, they have dug a hole too deep to get out of.
AB is likely looking for a ****load of public sector contracts, taxpayer funded, to offset its losses.
How much beer do federal, state, municiple, governments buy, I wonder....
I have an acquaintance that works for a Miller Coors Distributor. The daily volume of Miller Lite sales increased by 20,000 cases per day initially and has grown to an increase of 30,000 per day and holding steady. He works the Lite sales and didn’t have numbers for Coors Light, but he said “that side is slammed too.”
Between Lite, Bud Light and Coors Light, after the first few sips, you can’t tell the beers apart. Very easy to switch.
It wasn't just that InBev / Budweiser had a man pretending to be a woman as their spokesman, it was that they released the campaign just after such a troon murdered three adults and three children in Christian grammar school.
Anheuser-Busch can just go away. Who cares if this idiotic company survives? I surely don’t.
Bud Lite tastes like it has been run through a Clydesdale.
A good aspect of being Republican is that we value business. A bad aspect is that we too often work for the highest bidder.
And then next thing you know, there are basically three or four Mega-Conglomerates running the world.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, Our Corporate Anthem!”
The only damage control that will work is to unequivocally disavow the Trans agenda, and oh, make a decent beer.
I think you nailed it Petrosius.
AB comes out against the perverts, I’ll drink a budlight. That simple.
Couldn’t stick to making Beer and staying out of politics etc etc ,LOL
/ echo. WE THE PEOPLE...have had enough!
No one cares. The whores can try to protect AB all they want. Us normies don’t give a damn.
