'Big Beer' Is America First As Anheuser-Busch
Pours $600 Million Into American Manufacturing Jobs

Original Article

We all remember during the 2016 Presidential campaign, when former President Barack Obama was asked about blue-collar jobs that continued to go overseas. He stated matter-of-factly that “some of those jobs of the past are just not going to come back," and even added a bit of snark, saying of then-candidate Donald Trump, who had promised a revival of manufacturing jobs, “There’s no answer to it. . . . What magic wand do you have?” Well, like a lot of other things, turns out we didn't need a magic wand, just a new President. On Wednesday, beer giant Anheuser-Busch (AB) announced it would be expanding on its promise to

Three things…1. Thanks for the massive investment. 2. Wish you were still a US company, but hey this helps. 3. Try brewing a better lager AND maybe a decent IPA or 2.

A-B lost all favor with me when they sold out to a Belgium, and fell into deep DISfavor when they sold out to the alphabet soup gender nonsense. This move might SLOW their free fall. It certainly isn't enough to reverse it, though.

Budweiser makes great commercials but their beer isn't that great. I think the beer is produced by the Clydesdales.

They still love their trannies, I'll bet, too. And all the suckers who "dropped Bud Lite" and "switched" to other beers....95% of the 'other beers' were other A-B products, made zero impact on the company bottom line. Belgians laughing all the way to the bank. Fortunately, I never, ever drink beer....cannot stand the stuff.

Nope. Bud needs to fight this out and try to win. Long and tough road ahead though. And maybe even become US owned again someday.

New Navy Secretary, Hung Cao, 'Grabbed

2 replies
Posted by ConservativeYankee 4/23/2026 4:10:19 PM Post Reply
When Hung Cao was 4 years old, the U.S. military rescued him to freedom, evacuating him and his immediate family—seven people, two suitcases—from Saigon just hours before the capital of South Vietnam fell to the communists. What was a stroke of good fortune for Cao has worked out pretty well so far for America, too. Cao has spent a lifetime since then repaying the U.S. He graduated from the Naval Academy at Annapolis and served as a Navy diver and explosive ordnance disposal officer with deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia, retiring from active duty in 2021 as a captain. In 2024, as a candidate for U.S. Senate from Virginia,

Joe Biden has told his absurd Charlottesville story so many times that it has become folklore. He has framed a 2017 rally in Virginia as a moral turning point and the moment that supposedly compelled him to step in and “save” the country, and run for president in 2020. Biden’s claim was emotionally effective — even if difficult to believe — which is exactly why it has been repeated so often. But the narrative is even more laughable when you juxtapose it with what the Department of Justice is now alleging.

Marty Baron, the left-wing extremist who ran the Washington Post into the “Democracy Dies in Darkness” ditch between 2013 and 2021, has finally admitted the corporate media engaged in a cover-up of former President Joe Biden’s blatantly obvious mental and physical decline. During an address at something called the Peter F. Collier Awards for Ethics in Journalism at New York University, Baron slipped this in between his attacks on President Trump: Each of us probably can point to other instances where we went astray. Here’s one to think about: Did we live up to our truth-seeking mission early this decade as we saw Joe Biden struggling cognitively and physically

What do you steal from a city that has nothing worth stealing? The answer in the failed disaster area that is Detroit is you just break down and steal the everyday infrastructure of the city. Remember all the stories about freeway lights getting stolen? The Michigan Department of Transportation says one-fifth of the lights along freeways in Metro Detroit aren’t working — and copper thieves are mainly to blame. MDOT spokesman Rob Morosi said roughly 20 percent of the lights on poles and beneath overpasses on freeways in Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and St. Clair counties are dark. The main reason for many of the outages, according to Morosi, is copper thieves

Working at a 24/7 bodega in the heart of Brooklyn, Tajuken Deli employees are prepared for almost anything – except having guns pointed at their heads by cops. That’s what seemed to be happening one early April morning last year, when four armed men dressed in police uniforms flashed their badges, yelling “NYPD” as they stormed the neighborhood shop. Surveillance video shows one worker being quickly knocked to the ground and zip-tied into submission before being dragged to the back of the store. Another worker and customer were also subdued as the masked thieves dressed as cops made off with cash and a bag of lottery ticket receipts before fleeing

British landlords are allegedly advertising “Muslim only” rentals to prospective tenants around London in a clear violation of the country’s housing discrimination laws, according to a report. Dozens of listings shared across multiple social media sites featured the strict religious requirements for renters in London and south-east England, the Telegraph reported. “Only for Muslims,” “for 2 Muslim boys or 2 Muslim girls,” and “Muslims preferred” were listed on the advertisements, according to the outlet. One such post specified that a one-bedroom living space was available for “girls” and suitable for “Gujarati Muslim Student.” The Facebook post mentioned that the apartment was “ready to move now” and was close to a mosque.

Secretary of the Navy John Phelan was fired Wednesday after months of feuding with his Pentagon bosses, particularly over his handling of President Trump’s “Golden Fleet” shipbuilding initiative. Tensions between Phelan, War Secretary Pete Hegseth and Deputy War Secretary Stephen Feinberg had been simmering for months, according to the New York Times and a Republican source. Phelan didn’t get along with Pentagon brass and his management and leadership style was “incongruent” with Hegseth and Feinberg, one GOP source familiar with the fired Navy secretary’s standing at the Pentagon told The Post. “The administration really wanted to accelerate the shipbuilding program because of the president’s agenda … and the secretary seemed

Democrats and their aligned groups widely outspent Republicans in the Tuesday evening Virginia redistricting referendum, and the close margin has turned critical eyes on where the GOP has spent its money instead. The referendum passed in a roughly 51% to 49% vote, marking a much closer margin than had been expected in the state that elected Gov. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., by double digits in the last election. The result is expected to clear the way for state Democrats to approve a new set of congressional maps that heavily favor the incumbent party. At present, Virginia has six Democrats and five Republicans in Congress. The new map is expected

The California-based winery owned by Rep. Ilhan Omar's husband has folded, according to business records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. The move came nearly one year after the Minnesota Democrat filed a financial disclosure that listed the winery's value at up to $5 million—and roughly a week after Omar amended the disclosure to state that the winery had no value at all. The winery, eStCru, filed for termination with the California secretary of state's office on April 4, records show. The form was signed by Omar's husband Tim Mynett's business partner, former DNC adviser Will Hailer. It's a major fall from grace for the winery—at least on paper.

Ilhan Omar is claiming the $30 million “error” on her congressional financial disclosures was a simple mistake — but lawmakers aren’t buying it. They point to the Democratic firebrand and her current husband’s curious history of making money conveniently appear and disappear when it suits them, at least on paper. House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) said Omar could be hit with felony charges if she is found to have lied about the cash. Minnesota Rep. Omar’s financial disclosures for 2024, filed last year, initially valued her husband Tim Mynett’s businesses at between $6 million and $30 million. This week Omar claimed she and Mynett’s net worth wasn’t actually tens of millions

No reason was given for his departure. “Secretary of the Navy John C.

Not satisfied with destroying Chicago, Democrats in the state want to make sure all Illinoisans suffer. A new bill would override local laws and force access for homeless encampments in all public parks. Wirepoints notes that under House Bill 1429, the Local Regulation of Unsheltered Homelessness Act, local towns, park districts, cities, forest preserves, and all other municipalities of any kind “would have their home rule authority on the matter stripped away.” Per Wirepoints: It’s House Bill 1429, the Local Regulation of Unsheltered Homelessness Act, which says local governments wouldn’t be able to establish or enforce a rule fining or criminally punishing homeless people for participating in “life sustaining activities.”

New York City continues its tragic decline under the failed stewardship of buffoonish Mayor Zohran Mamdani, as spotlighted by a disturbing video showing three out-of-shape NYPD officers failing to restrain a subway thug. The incident, which occurred on a subway platform in the Bronx, underscores how Mamdani‘s embrace of anti-meritocratic DEI hiring practices has eroded public safety and emboldened criminals. The video, which was originally posted on Instagram, was reposted on X on Monday. “Three NYPD officers are unable to take down one thug at the Tremont Avenue subway stop in NYC,” an X user observed.

The president previously called Jeffries a "low IQ person" on Tuesday and said he was always ranting about the war in Iran. MS NOW's Lawrence O'Donnell asked the House Minority Leader to respond to the president's comments. "Well, it’s an extraordinary insult, but he continues to repeat it. And what’s so ironic is that Donald Trump is clearly the dumbest person ever to sit at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue," Jeffries said. Jeffries said Trump and Republicans have failed America. "But most importantly, Lawrence, this guy and Republicans have completely and totally failed America. They failed on the economy, failed on healthcare, failed on immigration enforcement," he said.

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for decades has lectured America about the ever-present threat of “hate” groups while raking in hundreds of millions from donors fearful of these organizations. But on Tuesday, the Trump DOJ dropped a bombshell: an 11-count federal indictment charging the SPLC with wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering for secretly funneling more than $3 million in donor cash to actual extremists. Among those nefarious payments was a staggering $270,000 allegedly paid to a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

Far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar blew up at a reporter this week for asking questions about accounting “discrepancies” the Democrat blamed for overstating her net worth by millions of dollars on financial disclosure forms. In May last year, Omar (D-Minn.) claimed she and her husband, Tim Mynett, held assets worth between $6 million and $30 million. However, an amended filing reported by the Wall Street Journal last week put the couple’s wealth at between $18,004 and $95,000. The lawmaker claimed the initial filing was riddled with accounting errors.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Tuesday that Iran and the United States should reach an agreement similar to former President Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal in order to make peace. “If the current efforts of the Iranian and American negotiators, which we support, result in something like the 2015 agreement, I think it would be a great success,” Lavrov said at a press conference after meeting with Taher al-Baour, the acting foreign minister of one of Libya’s two governments. Libya was torn in half and became infested with terrorists and warlords after Obama attacked the country in 2011 to change its regime.

A circuit court in Virginia just ruled that the newly passed but incredibly biased gerrymandered congressional map is unconstitutional. Former Virginia attorney general and Homeland Security official Ken Cuccinelli II posted on X Wednesday about the gerrymandered map, "UPDATE on referendum lawsuits: The Tazewell Circuit Court just ruled the referendum unconstitutional. The Judge entered an injunction blocking certification of the election & denied a motion to stay pending appeal. A final order will be entered once drafted, & it will be immediately appealed." The new map would almost certainly hand ten out of eleven congressional districts to Democrat control. This would impact not only Virginia, therefore, but the Republican-Democrat balance

A federal appeals court on Wednesday blocked enforcement of a California law that would have required federal immigration officers, including ICE agents, to unmask and wear visible identification during operations in the state. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted the United States’ motion for an injunction pending appeal. The court ruled that Section 10 of the No Vigilantes Act (S.B. 805) “attempts to directly regulate the United States in its performance of governmental functions,” violating the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. California, Governor Gavin Newsom, and Attorney General Rob Bonta are now enjoined from applying or enforcing the provision against federal agencies and officers.
