Cracker Barrel follows Bud Light off the DEI cliff
"CB will lose a big part of their base while not recouping that volume with new customers from the woke mob. That is not a good thing. After all, what self-respecting leftist would eat at a “Cracker” anything?"
"Cracker Barrel (“CB”) recently announced with great pride (pun intended) that they have become woke and are implementing customer-facing DEI throughout their restaurant chain, a project that has been in the works for about a year. Proving once more that idealistic leftists are oblivious to anything remotely involving sanity.
"The Left never seems to learn. Their DEI agenda is so important that they willingly crater their own businesses. Even Left-leaning news channels and their famous anchors have learned that they are not immune to this effect. I have doubts about the success of this new direction, for a couple of reasons.
"1) Woke people who pretend to live healthy lives don't eat there anyway -- you know, because of the biscuits, gravy, fried chicken, calories, fat, etc., where just one glass of sweet tea likely has more calories than they consume in a day. Somehow CB thinks taking the "country" out of Cracker Barrel, removing the old white dude and his barrel from the logo, and making the decor look like a latte cafe will entice them in (I have a bridge to sell you).
"2) Their loyal fans, including me, have no interest in overall DEI wokeness when it is an in-your-face action. Hire whoever you wish, as I don’t care about the proclivities of my server or the cook, so no problem there. But I do care about the thinking of leaders who believe this is a good direction to pursue as a business." . . .
Corporate logos represent a company’s identity, values, and mission. For Cracker Barrel, the iconic logo welcomed good, hearty folks with a nice elderly gentleman (perhaps a patriarch, perish the thought) sitting in a wooden chair beside a barrel upon which his left arm seeks deserved rest. It really conveyed Southern warmth and charm. Now, the logo conveys a bland… never mind, I don’t know what, such is its uninspiring, androgynous-like design. Perhaps the unintended message is “keep driving,” there’s a cozier restaurant around the country bend." . . .
And so it goes...

| "The left set out to destroy Cracker Barrel, and one way or another, it succeeded." |
. . . "This means that this wasn't just a really bad idea from a restaurant looking to update itself. This was a years-long campaign to pressure and pull Cracker Barrel into ridding itself of its Southern personality and adopt a more neutral personality that pleased hard-leftists, many of whom don't frequent those restaurants anyway.
"And without waiting for time to pass to see if it helps improve the restaurant's attendance, I can make the safe assumption that this pivot in the name of pleasing the most unpleasable people in the world is going to drive away whatever loyal base it had left. People who liked the restaurant for its Southern charm and likely felt it was relatable will probably no longer find it speaks to them.
"More than that, anyone who catches on that this rebrand was done to please an LGBTQ+ bullying organization will likely turn their back on it on principle." . . .
Why are you not focused, Hakeem, on unmasking the illegal criminals in your state and cooperating in their expeditious deportation, instead of on the brave DHS employees trying to do their job? The majority of American Citizens are not with you and perhaps you will be voted out.
Hakeem sir, Federal law says title 18 section 119 states that it is a federal crime to release or even threaten to release the Identity of ANY Federal employees private information with the intent to intimidate, harass or incite violence. So you sir have just broken a federal law, I believe you should do the American thing and turn yourself in, like you said we are not the soviet union and this isn’t the 1930’s.
U.S. Congressman Threatens to Expose ICE Agents [who are] Facing Death Threats - TFPP Wire. . . "There’s no excuse—no justification—for a sitting member of Congress to threaten the safety of federal law enforcement officers.
Hakeem Jeffries’ promise to expose ICE agents, knowing full well they’re under attack, crosses a line that no public official should ever approach.
It’s not just reckless; it’s vile.
ICE agents wear masks for the same reason undercover FBI or CIA agents would: to stay alive.
These are men and women doing the job the American people demanded—enforcing immigration laws and protecting national security.
They’re not hiding because they’re doing something wrong; they’re protecting their families from activists who have threatened violence.
When someone like Jeffries uses his platform not to defend the rule of law but to put law enforcement in greater danger, he betrays the very public he claims to serve.
These agents aren’t criminals—they’re Americans enforcing the law."
Hakeem Jeffries makes worrying threat against ICE agents as protesters interfere with operations . . . "People are out there taking photos of the names, their faces, and posting them online with death threats to their family and themselves. So I’m sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks, but I’m not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line, and their family on the line, because people don’t like what immigration enforcement is," Lyons explained." . . .
Democrats don't want good moral character in immigrants . . . "That’s why Normal Americans are so disgusted by Democrats who not only allowed anyone and everyone into the country during Biden’s Handler’s Administration, but are desperate to keep them all, particularly the worst of the worst criminals. For them, citizenship is a cheap carnival prize, a political token to be handed out to secure political power and money.
"That’s why their heads are exploding over a recent Trump order to ensure all legal immigrants have “good moral character.” . . .
