I mean, it's been well-established that Hillary funded the Steele Dossier, and then gave it to the FBI, who then leaked it to news media sites in order to generate news from it. This has been reaffirmed by whistleblowers, as well as the follow-on investigation. So, you're basically living in denial... which makes no real difference to me.




It has been well established that the Steele Dossier had NOTHING to do with the start of the investigation. It has also been well established that nothing from the Steele Dossier was used to support any of the findings or criminal charges from the Meuller investigation.

The only thing any of the information from the Steele Dossier was used for was to get a FISA warrant on Carter Paige. The FBI admitted that was not proper procedure, but it had virtually no effect on the investigation or its findings.

The only people who believe the Steele Dossier was behind all of this are the ones brainwashed by the right-wing echo chamber.

Do lawyers always lie ?

Bottom line, ... the FBI knew it was a campaign fabrication. The Meuller Report was a national embarrassment. Meuller could not even make a coherent testimony before Congress. It was never been proven true after billions of dollars were spent over years.

"Campaign Fabrications" do not result in multiple criminal convictions.

You people from the right-wing echo chamber are so brainwashed about the Steele Dossier that you do not even understand what a miniscule part it played in the investigation. The Steele Dossier did not start the investigation. The Steele Dossier was not used to support any of the criminal convictions or findings.

The Meuller investigation put several criminals behind bars and its findings were supported by the REPUBLICAN led Senate intelligence Committee.

The ONLY people who believe it was an "embarrassment" are the ones brainwashed by right-wing propaganda. Basically the same exact people who should have been embarrassed that so many members of Trumps support staff were convicted for lying.

Sorry, this has already been gone over multiple times where you've been proven wrong, and has nothing to do with Bud Light. I know you're wrong, YOU know you're wrong... but this is a problem you'll have to work through.

I am getting tired of these childish insults from you without posting anything to support your position. How about a "leave town" challenge?

I bet I can post five links from legitimate sources that prove that the Russiagate investigation was started based on Papadopolous comment to Downer and had NOTHING to do with the Steele dossier. And you can't post a single link from a legitimate source that says you are correct.

If I do that then you have to leave this forum for 30 days.

You man enough to take this challenge? Or are you just going to keep hiding behind ad hominin attacks.

Anheuser-Busch Distributors Lose Faith Company Can Regain Customers

New York Post: Many Anheuser-Busch distributors say they are resigned to their painful Bud Light losses — and that they have given up on luring back disaffected customers following the Dylan Mulvaney fiasco. After four months of hiring freezes and layoffs — with some beer truck drivers getting heckled and harassed even as Bud Light sales have dropped by more than 25% — Anheuser-Busch wholesalers have accepted that they have lost a chunk of their customers for good — and need to focus on a new crop of drinkers (New York Post).

PJ Media: Sales of other Anheuser-Busch beers like Budweiser, Michelob Ultra, and Busch Light have also experienced a decline since the Mulvaney debacle. The customers who switched brands probably figured out that light beers aren’t all that different, which means that marketing is the key to winning people over (PJ Media).


Sales figures should come out in the next day or two for last week, so I'll post those as soon as I see them.

Their wokeness ploy sure did hurt their sales, but being a declining boomer brand, it's inevitable. InBev had many brands under them, so they will be alright.

Budweiser as a brand, their peak consumption sales was way back in 1988. They have been losing market share ever since.

They basically sped-up their decline by almost a decade. Which is part of the "fast-fail" ideology of business. They've really excelled there...

UPDATES!!!

1. Last week of July saw another sales drop of over 29% down from previous year.

2. Anheuser-Busch laid off 350 people in July, and will now be laying off another 400 people later this month.

3. Anheuser-Busch will be selling off 8 of its craft-beer brands to help pay for the massive losses they’ve encountered since April.
• Shock Top
• Breckenridge Brewery
• Blue Point Brewing Company
• 10 Barrel Brewing Company
• Redhook Brewery
• Widmer Brothers Brewing
• Square Mile Cider Company
• HiBall Energy


Canadians will be happy to know those 8 brands will be going to a Canada-owned company.

Oddly enough, almost none of the major news outlets are talking about this, except some local Fox stations, and NewsMax. Either it's because no one cares anymore (which I don't believe), or they don't WANT to talk about it. You be the judge...
