Budweiser Factory​ In Van Nuys Targeted With Bomb Threat

LOS ANGELES, CA — The Anheuser-Busch Budweiser factory in Van Nuys was targeted with a bomb threat Thursday, prompting a sweep of the sprawling campus, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed.

An Anheuser-Busch employee confirmed to Patch that several Budweiser facilities across the nation were targeted with bomb threats as the company faces massive backlash for an advertising partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

An Anheuser-Busch spokesperson did not respond to calls and emails for comment.

However once in office the fascist leaders yank the oligarchs hard,
demanding total loyalty and support, and a big cut of corporate profits.

We can see this playing out with DeSantis and Disney in Florida.
I suspect Disney wasn't giving the money cut DeSantis wanted, it is not
just about LGBT issues.

It remains to be seen if the American oligarchs cave to the GOP fascists or not.
