Quick Hits

Bud Light's sales dropped another 29.5% the week of May 20.

That's on top of the previous drops of 20%+ for the prior six weeks.

Though each time sales drop, that 20-30% fall means less and less, as the numbers keep falling from a lower and lower baseline.

Walter Freeman says I'm reading those numbers wrong:

I don't read the numbers the same way. It looks like all the "drops" have been YoY numbers relative to the same one week period last year. So -29% for week ending on May 20 isn't compounded with all previously weekly drops. It's still trending down though.

Well okay, if you want to be accurate about it. Killjoy.

Meanwhile, Dylan Mulvaney, who has been a flamboyantly gay man before deciding he was now a "girl," says he's all done being gay and now he's totally into chicks.

I thought it was impossible to change your sexual orientation -- Born That Way and all.

But I guess he's thinking that now that he's a "girl," if he wants to stay "gay," he'll have to start doing what most men of his gender do, which is liking girls.


Here he admits that he's spent the last ten years coming out as "gay, and then queer, and then non-binary, and then trans," so his claim that he's a "little bit romantically interested in women" comes at some surprise to his parents.

Why it's almost as if this talentless deadeyed clout-chaser has nothing to offer the world except for new Storylines, which are always about his always-evolving Sexual Identity.


So will this Storyline continue? I doubt it. It's just another attempt at a Viral Moment; he claims his parents told him "I would love for you to get a woman pregnant" (very natural dialogue there, Dylan), and Dylan responded, "Oh no, she would be getting me pregnant!" (very accurate biology there, Dylan).

"It would satisfy our glands and have fulsome hedonic value if you generated a miniature replica of yourself," his parental units jointly screamed in this very real conversation that definitely happened and is not just some kind of reverse-Norman Rockwell nightmarescape.

But if you don't take his farcical ever-shifting gender and sexual orientation declarations seriously, you put yourself in danger of being deplatformed and de-banked. So careful out there. The Most Oppressed People Who Ever lived will use their unchallenged financial and corporate power to crush you if you disagree with them just a little bit.

Joe Manchin has screwed over his constituents with his Fake Moderate act for the last time:

Steven Allen Adams @stevenadamswv

In a new poll from East Carolina University conducted May 22-23 with 957 registered WV voters, Gov. Jim Justice (R) would beat U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D) 54% to 32% in a head-to-head match-up for U.S. Senate in 2024, with 13% undecided and 1% voting for another candidate.

Whoops, we can't have a Democrat losing a Senate race!

Biden's DOJ capos have an app for that!

Republicans are crying foul following the news of President Biden's Department of Justice (DOJ) targeting West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice's (R) family.

Justice, who is also a GOP Senate candidate hoping to unseat Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), is the latest to experience political targeting from Biden's DOJ, as it has filed a civil complaint against his family's coal empire -- over a dozen coal businesses ran or owned by his son Jay Justice -- citing "repeated violations of the law" in hopes of recovering what the assistant attorney general of the DOJ's Environment and Natural Resources Division Todd Kim described as "penalties they owe as a result of those violations."

Now that Trump is running for President again, he has discovered he can end birthright citizenship through a simple executive order. Too bad he didn't realize this during the four years he actually was president! I guess this is another entry on the To Do list from things he could have done from 2017-2020, but just didn't get around to.

I didn't like the GOPe's endless games of Conning the Rubes and Humiliating the Hobbits very much, and I don't like Trump's embrace of the game, either.


Meanwhile, Chicago's BLM Mayor has crime locked down.

Chicago Mayor's Neighbor Allegedly Beat a Woman to Death with a Bat

A Chicago daycare worker was charged with first degree murder after allegedly beating a woman with a baseball bat and dumping her body in the alley behind his home.

The medical examiner found that the victim sustained over 100 injuries to her face, head, and scalp, CWB reported. During the suspect, Ariel Smith's, bail hearing on Tuesday, Assistant State's Attorney Anne McCord said the medical examiner had "never seen so many injuries on someone's body."

Oakland residents say that they're sick of the crime and wondering how it got so out of control.

It is due to your demands for "decarceration" and effectively making crime legal. SPOILER ALERT!

John Sexton:

About 200 residents gathered in north Oakland last night to express their frustration with city officials about rising crime. Robberies are up 22% compared to last year and recently the area had 100 robberies reported in a single week, fifty of those happened in a single weekend. The crowd who gathered last night quickly got animated.
[The San Francisco Chronicle:] Within the first five minutes of a raucous community safety meeting Tuesday night in North Oakland, residents vented frustrations and fear over a recent crime spike -- and their perception that city leaders are doing little to address it.

Over the two hours that followed, a crowd of roughly 200 gathered at Oakland Technical High School confronted a panel of city officials, the interaction ranging from volcanic heckling to stunned silence. A woman stood and delivered a wrenching personal story about being beaten in front of her house. The owner of a pizzeria said his employees had been held up at gunpoint four times in six years. One person called the city a "failed progressive utopia."

Others described deteriorating street conditions and predicted that businesses would leave -- a San Francisco "doom loop" that had migrated across the bridge.

A male transgender identified himself as a far left activist, but opined that things had gone too far.

"This isn't just about entrenched political camps," said a transgender woman who described how she and her partner had only recently begun looking at NextDoor and the Citizen app after being robbed twice, both in daylight hours, over just two weeks in Oakland...

[He] acknowledged that violence often comes from a place of hurt but said she also believed that letting people commit crimes repeatedly is its own form of harm.

"It actually does mess you up more to keep attacking people," [he] said. "You can't let kids just go back out there."

Sexton comments:

[He's] saying that it's better for the perpetrators to be locked up at a certain point than to allow them to continue to commit crimes, thereby doing harm to themselves. That's the most progressive, bass-ackward argument for putting people in jail I've ever heard but who cares. The point is that a conservative is just progressive who has been mugged. If [he] gets mugged a couple more times [he'll] stop worrying about the offenders and start worrying about herself and everyone else.


Also from John Sexton: the president of the grocery chain Giant says that shoplifting has increased "tenfold" over the past five years, and violence has increased "exponentially."

You can't sustain a civilization based on theft, murder, and plunder.
