Dylan Mulvaney Flies To Peru To ‘Feel Safe,’ Participate In ‘Shaman Ceremonies’ Amid Bud Light Backlash

Dylan Mulvaney has flown to Peru “to feel something” and “feel safe” months after the transgender-identifying activist partnered with Bud Light and sparked a nationwide backlash. 

Mulvaney, a man who says that he is a woman, announced on TikTok this week that he was in Peru on a solo trip. Videos posted to the social media platform show Mulvaney alongside llamas and at Machu Picchu, an Incan city in the Andes Mountains. 

“I’ve seen a lot of llamas. The people here are so kind. I feel very safe here,” Mulvaney said on TikTok. “It’s a little sad that I had to leave my country to feel safe but that will get better eventually.”

Mulvaney added that he had done “shaman ceremonies” that were like therapy. 

“I came here to feel something. And I definitely have. I have done shaman ceremonies that were like 10 years worth of therapy, it was wild,” Mulvaney said. “Most of all this trip has me feeling like my own best friend again. And that is the best feeling in the world.”

Dylan Mulvaney is claiming to have fled the U.S. because he didn’t feel safe and is now in Peru.

“It’s a little sad that I had to leave my country to feel safe.”

Mulvaney’s Peru trip comes after Anheuser-Busch lost billions of dollars in market value after a partnership with Mulvaney, where the activist was sent a Bud Light can with his face on it. Mulvany blasted Bud Light last month, saying that they did not do enough to “publicly stand” up for him. 

“I took a brand deal with a company that I loved. And I posted a sponsored video to my page,” Mulvaney said. “And it must have been a slow news week, because the way that this ad got blown up, you would have thought I was like, on a billboard, or on a TV commercial or something major, but no, it was just an Instagram video.”

Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth has not said that the partnership was a mistake, but has said he doesn’t want the beer brand to be something that “divides people.”

“And I was waiting for the brand to reach out to me, but they never did. And for months now, I’ve been scared to leave my house, I have been ridiculed in public, I’ve been followed,” Mulvaney added. 

Sales of Bud Light plummeted following the Mulvaney partnership, and the beer has since lost its place as one of the country’s 10 most popular beers, falling to number 14 in recent customer surveys. 

Jordan Threatens Funding Unless New FBI HQ Leaves DC Area — And He Has A Suggestion

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) is pushing for the FBI to move its headquarters outside of the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Area, suggesting Alabama as an alternative location.

A letter he sent on Tuesday to House Appropriations Chairwoman Kay Granger (R-TX) argues that his panel is concerned about politicization in federal law enforcement, fueled by its concentration in the nation’s capital.

In making one of several recommendations for government spending in fiscal 2024, Jordan further argued the “centralization of FBI operations in the National Capitol Region has led to duplication of activity best left to the respective field offices, contributed to reduced autonomy in local field offices, and allowed improper political influence to taint law enforcement investigations and activity.”

Jordan went on to lay out possible language for his suggested provision.

“None of the funds made available in this Act may be used to build a new FBI headquarters,” the chairman wrote. “In addition, the FBI is directed to submit an operational plan within 90 days to move the FBI Headquarters out of the National Capital Region.”

He added, “The operational plan should also consider the existing resources and infrastructure available at the FBI’s Redstone Arsenal Campus in Huntsville, AL.”

The FBI’s current headquarters, the J. Edgar Hoover Building, started being built in Washington, D.C., during the 1960s and was completed in the 1970s.

The federal government has been looking to get a new headquarters in the D.C. area for more than a decade now. Delegations from Maryland and Virginia are fighting over the project as the General Services Administration weighs locations selected in both states.

Local reporting in Alabama indicates that the FBI’s Redstone Arsenal Campus is growing, but the bureau told The Wall Street Journal that its facilities could not hold the 8,500 personnel it hopes to put in the new headquarters around the D.C. region. The FBI also claimed there are “numerous operational reasons” to keep the HQ close to the nation’s capital, such as its proximity to the bureau’s academy near Quantico, Virginia, and intelligence agencies.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), who has advocated for the new FBI to come to his state, told The Wall Street Journal that a move to Alabama “ain’t gonna happen.” And he argued “the issue is what serves the needs of the agency. The FBI wants to stay in the D.C. metro area, so that’s where it’s going to be.”

When pressed for comment, Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle told AL.com, “We’re proud of the FBI presence in Huntsville and will support whatever Congress decides is best for the betterment of our country.”
