Dope1: But part of being a democrat is that you’re never, ever allowed to say “my party is fundamentally wrong”. ESPECIALLY if you want any support from the progressives ever again.

The willingness to lie in public is quite Soviet-like.

Walgreens lied.

Walgreens admits it lied.

The San Francisco Chronicle proved Walgreens lied.

A Walgreens executive said this week that the company, which cited “organized” shoplifting as a reason to close five stores in San Francisco in October 2021, might have overstated the effect of theft on its business.

“Maybe we cried too much last year,” James Kehoe, the company’s chief financial officer, said during a Walgreens earnings call with investors.

Mr. Kehoe also said that the company had “probably” spent too much on security measures and that it might have mischaracterized how much theft took place in its stores.

If anyone is "Soviet-like" and liars, it's Walgreens and the Trump cult.
