Robby Starbuck on Jack Daniel's exposé: We're 'winning our country back'

Conservative filmmaker turned consumer advocate Robby Starbuck was three for three — but he wasn't about to rest on his laurels. On Monday his social media-fueled boycott of Harley-Davidson convinced the iconic American motorcycle company to walk back various leftist initiatives, including mandatory "LBGTQ+ ally" training for employees and DEI-focused hiring policies. That same day, he informed Align that he was already working on another big target. The victory against Harley-Davidson followed similarly effective campaigns against Tractor Supply and John Deere. Brands like these are so much a part of our history that we can't just let them "go woke, go broke." We owe it to ourselves to preserve them. The woke desecration of Harley-Davidson has been especially insulting. As Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck puts it: Harley is one of the brands that helped win World War II. The Harley-Davidson WLA carried American GIs to war against the Nazis. The WLA was brought back to the United States, and a new era of motorcycles was born after the veterans began chopping them up for civilians to use. The “chopper” was born. Veterans returning from war from the 1940s through today have ridden Harleys as both a therapeutic mechanism to deal with what they saw on the battlefield and as an homage to experience the openness of American freedom. And that legacy has been taught and handed down to Harley-Davidson riders from father to son enthusiastically since 1903.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
