Bud Light has announced a $3 million scholarship project for families of America's fallen or disabled first responders - potentially as part of an effort to distance itself from culture wars after the Dylan Mulvaney partnership fiasco.
The beleaguered beer brand's parent company, Anheuser-Busch, is providing the funds for affected spouses and children alongside Folds of Honor, its longest-standing charity partner of over 100 years.
It comes after the popularity of the beer plummeted and sales dropped 30 percent when conservative consumers boycotted the drink over its partnership with 26-year-old transgender influencer Mulvaney in April.

This is like Harvey Weinstein promising to devote his life to fighting the NRA as his trial approached.
Send these @ssholes to zero.
That scholarship project is very nice, but Bud Lite management would be smarter to refrain from doing any new public outreach at all for about 3 years, providing less to be reacted to. Complete prior commitments, but don’t slap the Bud Lite label onto anything more that is needlessly controversial. Besides, their label is in tatters. Not everyone would want to boast they got a big financial boost from that brand right now.
Dylan was named Man of the Year by Babylon Bee.

You can easily count on one’s fingers the six months that have passed allowing their advisers to tell them to do something safe.
Are first responders short of union pensions, great life insurance, and survivor benefits?
When tragedy hits are the first responder’s survivor family the families that are usually the most in need of donations?
I tend to wonder about who cares about the invisible ‘little people’ who don’t have all the safety net of the firemen.
Very well written Bee! Thank you for sharing, sending to family 😁
And how much money did you donate to BLM and no one said a thing
She did an excellent job destroying them
hilarious
Wow! 10 posts and not one of them a, “Bud Light is pisswater and I only drink IPA made in October,” from freepers who didn’t understand what this whole issue is about.
It’ll work, too. Television has given Americans the memory capacity of adolescent flatworms.
Too late, InBev. 🤚🏼
$3 million in scholarships is nice. For comparison, I wonder how much they paid the tranny.
Exactly !

I stopped purchasing any AmBev products, not just AB.
Screw them and their tranny fluid. They never apologized and never said they repudiate their association with perverts. Idiots
They are supposed to post their 3rd quarter financials in 2 weeks. I’m guessing they’re bad.
