In an attention-grabbing display of speculation and conjecture, MSNBC host Jen Psaki, previously a member of the Biden administration, put forth a theory suggesting Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito cashed in his shares with Anheuser-Busch following a trans influencer’s tweet. Despite Psaki’s sensational claims, no concrete evidence was provided to back up the allegations.

What spurred this remarkable theory? Dylan Mulvaney, a trans influencer, posted a video featuring Bud Light in an ad, which subsequently led to protests and a noticeable drop in Bud Light’s sales. Psaki’s theory suggests that a Supreme Court Justice took financial action because of an alleged social media post by an anti-LGBTQ influencer. A bold claim, especially as there is no evidence to confirm Alito ever saw any such tweet – he doesn’t even have an account on the mentioned platform.

One might hazard a guess, using logic and reason, that Alito’s decision to sell shares would more likely hinge on the financial realities, such as the significant drop of Bud Light’s sales. During the boycott, consumers turned their support to Molson Coors, a top competitor, leading to a surge in sales amounting to $11.7 billion. The simple fact is, when a company’s stock plummets, as Bud Light’s did by $1.4 billion, it is common practice to sell and seek investment opportunities elsewhere. Very often in such cases, alternative companies experience a surge in their sales volume; in this instance, Coors reported a 23 percent growth in the U.S.

Psaki’s claims that Alito’s financial decisions were influenced by a tweet from an as-yet-unidentified source are far-fetched to say the least. It is much more plausible that Alito saw a sinking ship – in terms of diminishing returns on his investment – and decided to jump ship for more lucrative and less controversial shores.

To sum up, we face the reality that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito likely sold his shares in Anheuser-Busch due to substantial financial losses. The attempt to suggest that his decision could be influenced by a tweet on a platform he doesn’t even use is – frankly – bewildering.
