Why Are Elite Democrats Bullying a Hispanic-Owned Business?
The Goya Foods boycott represents everything that’s wrong with the Democratic Party.
“Oh look,” popular Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter in July upon the news that Goya Foods, the largest Hispanic-owned business in the U.S., had fallen suddenly and catastrophically out of favor with the left; “It’s the sound of me googling how to make my own adobo.”
Ocasio-Cortez was far from alone in her sudden hard-line against Goya Foods, and more specifically, it’s CEO. Soon, other prominent and ambitious Democratic Party politicians were enthusiastically jumping onto the anti-Goya bandwagon.
The major media outlets, not to be outdone, proceeded with their own fuselage of dire warnings, diatribes, and accusations aimed at Goya Foods.
