      XPost: alt.politics.democrats, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, talk.politics.guns       XPost: sac.politics, alt.society.mental-health, alt.transgendered       From: democrat-criminals@mail.house.gov              https://nypost.com/2023/10/11/firm-tied-to-bud-lights-dylan-mulvaney-       fiasco-fires-execs/              A California marketing firm linked to Bud Light’s disastrous tie-up with       trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney has fired several top executives as part       of a major restructuring, The Post has learned.              San Mateo-based Captiv8 — which canned 13 staffers in July after top brass       returned from a lavish junket to the French Riviera, as The Post reported       — axed 30 employees, roughly 20% of its workforce, in the latest round of       layoffs, multiple sources told The Post.              It’s not clear whether Captiv8’s shakeup, which happened Sept. 28, was a       direct result of the Mulvaney fiasco, which led to Bud Light losing its       two-decade status as the nation’s top-selling beer.              “I’m guessing that Dylan Mulvaney contributed,” one laid-off executive       told The Post. “They weren’t laying people off before [April 1] .”              Bud Light parent Anheuser-Busch blamed a third-party marketer for sending       the transgender influencer a can of of Bud Light featuring an image of       Mulvaney, which she touted to her millions of social media followers on       April 1.              While Anheuser-Busch never named the firm, insiders told The Post that it       was Captiv8 that introduced the beer giant to Mulvaney.              Captiv8 CEO Krishna Subramanian, who has never publicly addressed the       Mulvaney controversy, told surviving staffers on a companywide Zoom call       that the layoffs were necessary because the company is undergoing a       “reorganization,” sources said.              “There were several department heads” who lost their jobs, one source       said.              “All of us have watched Captiv8 spend a lot money on parties,” one fired       worker told The Post, adding that “lavish spending has been consistent       with this company.”              Captiv8 declined to comment on the recent round of layoffs. Subramanian       did not respond to an email for comment.              The company had fired 5% of its staff in July — days after attending the       ad industry’s Oscar-like annual Cannes Lions International Festival of       Creativity.              Captiv8 had chartered a private jet filled with swag to fly the company’s       honchos, clients and influencers to the South of France — posting photos       of fancy parties at villas and yachts.              The company had said the trip was “paid for in tandem with our brand       partners and clients, having no impact on the company’s overall bottom       line.”              Subramanian, who was a guest at the White House for a holiday party last       Dec. 18, founded Captiv8 eight years ago.              The company boasts a database of more than 1 million influencers on       YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Twitter and counts McDonald’s, Disney,       Toyota, Nordstrom, Macy’s and OceanSpray among its clients.                     --       We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem.

Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed       dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
