Lauren Boebert celebrates Anheuser-Busch laying off 350 workers

Earlier this week, Anheuser-Busch InBev, Bud Light’s parent company, announced that it will lay off 350 workers, about 2% of its 18,000 U.S. employees. The layoffs were announced nearly four months after Bud Light sponsored a 50-second Instagram video made by transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, and many on the right are saying it’s proof that their boycott of the beer brand worked.

And no one seems happier that 350 Americans lost their jobs than Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO).

Cruz threatened Bud Light’s parent company with “a lengthy investigation” if it didn’t cut ties and apologize for its partnership with Mulvaney.

“Bud Light went woke, then Bud Light went broke!” she tweeted, adding an American flag emoji to show her patriotism. She linked a Fox News article about the layoffs to make it clear that she was celebrating the layoffs and not any other aspect or result of the boycott.
