  Speaker 1: White pills raining down on us from above. It's a
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: beautiful thing. Jack Daniels ditches DEI Initiatives rather than face boycott.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: You know what, it's really astonishing. I mean, this really
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: goes back to the bud Light boycott, doesn't it. It
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: really goes back. I mean, who could have guessed the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: power that that would have. Who could have guessed it?
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: It's amazing your bud Light sales still suffering in US
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: a year after controversy. This is from May eighth, twenty
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: twenty four. Partnership with Dylan mulvaney sparked a boycott of
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: bud Light. That's a partnership with Dylan Molvany sparked a
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: boycott of bud Light. Now, what's happening? Anheuser Bush, known
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: for such iconic brands as Budweiser and bud Light, filed
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: a war or worker adjustment and retraining notification with the
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: state on Friday. The notice said it's ab one distribution
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: loction in Medford would lay off one hundred and ninety
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: few workers one hundred ninety three workers over the first
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: two weeks of November. So they're laying people off now
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Now I feel bad for those people that are getting
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: laid off because they didn't do anything wrong, right, but
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: this is you know, get will go broke. This is
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: a real get will go broke. And now you can
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: see the power of this. Jack Daniels Ditch's DEI initiatives.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Rather than face boycott, there's been other boycotts as well.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Just had like Tractor Supply, they had that target that
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: hurt them. They lost like a couple of billion dollars
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: in that. There's been a bunch of them. So's the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: company that owns Oh not to mention Harley Davidson, they're
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: looking at getting rid of their German CEO. I said
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: this before, don't get don't hire a German ceo. Don't
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: just because I mean just the techno music alone they've
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: probably taken with them everywhere. That would be enough to
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: drive you nuts and ruin a company. But don't don't
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: hire a germancy. What do you expect is going to happen?
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: You know, of course they're going to be woke. You know,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: once they tried to take over the world with fascism
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and they're still trying to take over the world with fascism.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: It just woke fascism. Now stay away from the German
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: CEOs again just if for nothing else, just the techno music.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Nobody likes that. And a company wide letter issued by
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: its executive leadership team, Brown Foremancorp. Announced quote, we launched
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: our diversity and inclusion strategy in twenty nineteen. Since then,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the world has evolved, it has our business has changed,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and the legal and external landscape has shifted dramatically, particularly
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: within the United States. With these new dynamics at play,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: we must adjust our work to ensure it continues to
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: drive business results while appropriately recognizing the current environment in
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: which we find ourselves. Yeah, I guess companies have had
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: to decide between you know, those Blackrock investment bucks and
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: just losing all of their customers. They've decided which one
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: is worse. It's worse to just lose all of your customers.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: We believe that we must make some changes to account
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: for the ever changing landscape, the company said, explaining that
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: it would be removing our quantitative workforce and supplier diversity ambitions,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: ending participation in the human rights campaigns, corporate Equity Index survey,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: and reviewing training programs for consistency. For consistency with an
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: evolved strategy, that's a mouthful. So we've looked at human rights,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: human rights campaigns, corporate equity index before human rights campaigns
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: is basically an organization that is there to blackmail companies
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: into doing what they want. And it looks like again
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: with the faced with the option of you know, going
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: along with all this stuff, all the woke stuff, or
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: losing some sizeable part of their customers, that decided, well,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: we really first and foremost need the customers, right, They're
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: really the most important thing we need, if for good,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to make money. The announcement comes after conservative activist and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: filmmaker Robbie Starbuck, who has been leading an effort to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: take down DEI departments at companies across the United States
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: through boycott campaigns, planned to expose Jack Daniels next too
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: much trouble, they decided, quote they must have been tipped
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: off by us going through employee LinkedIn pages. They just
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: preemptively announced that they'll be making these changes, said Starbuck
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: on X, who added a screenshot of a file indicating
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: that he had fifteen gigabytes of DEI evidence on Jack
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Daniels he was set to reveal, so they got ahead
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: of it. They've they've they've weighed, They've weighed the risks
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and the benefits. We're now forcing multi billion dollar organizations
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: to change their policies without even posting, just from the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: fear they have of being the next company we expose,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: wrote Starbuck. We are winning and one by one, we
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: will bring sanity back to corporate America. And this is
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: white pill stuff. It's working, Starbucks work to expose DEI
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: policies at companies and corporations across the US has been effective.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: He was at the forefront of exposing John Deere and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Tractor Supply Company, both of which reversed course and eliminated
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: their DEI departments after suffering damages due to the boycotts.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: That's another win, folks, that's another win, another win. Indeed. Anyway,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: that's all I'm going to say about that. Please like, share,
• 5:35
