posted by Hannity Staff - 7.15.20

A man in Virginia has already raised more than $100,000 to purchase and donate Goya food products after the CEO faced a liberal boycott for praising President Trump at the White House.

“The GoFundMe page, created by Casey Harper, a producer for conservative political commentator Eric Bolling, has raised more than $115,000 since it was first launched over the weekend. The page, which calls on patrons to ‘support Trump & feed the hungry,’ initially had a goal of $10,000,” reports The Hill.

“What if we rise up to say no to cancel culture AND feed the hungry at the same time?” the author writes.

Goya CEO Bob Unanue told reporters the country was “truly blessed” to have Donald Trump as the Commander-in-Chief.

“Now GOYA is facing a boycott that could cost the CEO his job. The liberal mob is coming for anyone who disagrees. Cancel culture at its worst. We need to have our voice heard!” adds the webpage.

GOYA STAYS STRONG: CEO Refuses to Cave to Far-Left Pressure, Backs President Trump Despite Boycott

posted by Hannity Staff - 7.10.20

From Fox News:

Goya Foods President and CEO Bob Unanue said on Friday that he is not backing down in the face of a boycott over his visit to the White House.

“We were part of a commission called the White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative and they called on us to be there to see how we could help opportunities within the economic and educational realm for prosperity among Hispanics and among the United States,” Unanue told “Fox & Friends.”

Politicians and celebrities are boycotting Goya, the largest Hispanic-owned food company in the country, after its CEO, Robert Unanue, praised President Donald Trump during an event Thursday at the White House.

“We’re all truly blessed at the same time to have a leader like President Trump, who is a builder,” said Unanue, who is of Spanish descent, at the event.

Trump hosted Hispanic leaders at the White House on Thursday and signed an executive order on the White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative to use more taxpayer support for private and charter schools and “improve access by Hispanic Americans to education and economic opportunities.”

Critics like Rep. Alexandria-Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y., former Democratic presidential candidate Julian Castro of Texas and a number of celebrities took aim at the company on social media with hashtags like #BoycottGoya and #GOYAWAY. Many urged people who use Goya products to start buying similar foods and condiments produced by the company’s competitors.

posted by Hannity Staff - 7.13.20

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany ripped the far-left’s latest attempt to “cancel” organizations that support President Trump Monday; slamming their recent attempts to boycott Goya Foods.

“[CEO Bob Unanue] is the absolute embodiment of the American dream,” McEnany said. “It’s very shameful what the left does. This is cancel culture.”

 

“If you associate with this president. If you associate with the Republican Party, we’ve got to cancel you out of this society, deride you, demonize you in a very personal way,” she continued. “They will shame anyone who associates with this administration, but the silent majority stands strong, and it’s shameful what they did to Bob.”
