Outerwear company Patagonia is boycotting a Wyoming ski resort for hosting a GOP fundraiser.

According to The Daily Wire:

Patagonia said last week that it would no longer sell products to the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort after one of its owners, Jay Kemmerer, hosted a fundraiser attended by current and former members of the House Freedom Caucus. GOP Reps. Jim Jordan (OH), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA) headlined the event along with Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff under former President Donald Trump.

“Our really strong commitment to using both our business and our brand to advocate for our strong priorities” motivated the decision to cut ties, Patagonia’s head of communications and police Corley Kenna told WyoFile. “When there’s a misalignment on that, then we take action.”

Kenna later added to The Hill: “Those that know us in Jackson Hole are aware that we make business decisions and build relationships in alignment with our values and advocacy efforts. Just over a year ago, we stopped advertising on Facebook and Instagram over a year ago as part of our commitment to stop the spread of hate speech and misinformation on climate.”

“We join with the local community that is using its voice in protest,” she added. “We will continue to use our business to advocate for policies to protect our planet, support thriving communities and a strong democracy.”

Patagonia is a company that has been openly activist over the years. Pledging millions of dollars to the environment, social justice, and left-wing causes. It appears they have chosen their side.



      1. I wouldn’t shop at Dick’s if they were the only retail store in the world! They are the first to remove AR-15s. I hope you realize that.

        1. yes- I have boycotted for several years now- along with all my friends- Target is next door- same thing- I give them the finger each time i ride by! Not a $ from me every again

        1. It’s sad indeed that so many corporations have surrendered to the mentally ill woke politically correct progressives.

  1. It is very simple, every person and every company has the right to make their statement. Just like Outerwear company Patagonia, has elected not to sell their products to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort after one of its owners, Jay Kemmerer, hosted a fundraiser attended by current and former members of the House Freedom Caucus. GOP Reps. Jim Jordan (OH), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA) headlined the event along with Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff under former President Donald Trump.
    Remember and every person this offends, should no longer buy their products.
    That’s what freedom of choice is all about.

    I haven’t supported a NFL or NBA team in 3 years, I don’t buy tickets anymore and I don’t watch any of the games, that is my choice, the only way to speak up is don’t spend your money for these programs and/or companies.

    God Bless America.

      1. There are a lot more: Costco, Delta Airlines, Twitter, Subway (Oh Lord no more turkey sandwiches), AT&T, Uber, (Bed, Bath and Beyond), Lockheed Martin. Reddit, Raytheon.

      2. And add target to the list. Remember the bathroom episode for transgender? I have not been there for years either.Women do have rights and one is to not have the confused genders in their bathrooms. Chose to not do business where this is allowed. Give the gender confused their own bathrooms but not women’s anything!

        1. Confused? You’re being too kind. I say they’re mentally ill.

          But I do like it when companies and organizations provide 3 separate bathrooms to address the situation.

    1. Robert, totally agree with you. Patagonia has the right as “free” company to not sell their product to Republicans. And, as you say, I as a “free” person have the right to not buy their product. Thank you, I CHOOSE NOT TO BUY PATAGONIA.

  2. They can take their overpriced articles and shove them clean up their non-gender specific orifices. Wake up to boycott, boneheads.

  3. In all likelihood the owners of the resort in Jackson Hole are just as far left as the people at Patagonia. Jackson Hole is the one bit of cancer in Wyoming. So fun to watch the left eat its own.

  4. THEY are the ones spreading “misinformation” on the climate. These Marxists use “computer models.” Everyone knows GIGO: garbage in, garbage out. They either downplay or ignore solar flares and sunspots. It should be obvious that the SUN is the main source of “climate change.”

    1. Thats right get a farmers almanac read back 75 to 100 years this is all a cycle for the earth tothing unnatural

      1. Truth the earth fixes itself in different ways all the time. M . ore so at certain times wether it be years or decades. Climate changed patootie. I think the only thing I see in climate change occurrences is effectively effecting ppls minds. It’s called got Satan in my head in my head I got Satan in my head in my head I’m gonna woke till I’m dead in the head I got Satan in my head ……….,

    2. And you know what? Genuine astronomical science warns us that the sun is nearing a period of minimal activity. We will all be cooling down. Back in the early 1970’s the climate scuttlebutt warned us all of a pending ICE AGE. Climate activists will awaken one day and experience God’s sense of humor and justice.

    1. What ever it is they are screwing with the wrong state with that liberal claptrap. Sales statewide are going to drop and drop BAD.

  5. patagonia clothes are the worst ones…a shitty brand, with shitty stuffs. Why people buy from them…there are thousands of other brands that have a better articles.. two can play the same game.

  6. Well, I’ve never heard of this company, but I’m sure that the Wyoming Resort can find a much better replacement. This leftwing silly companies really think that people can not do without them. Yes we can! In fact, as a former HUD secretary stated, we need to stop supporting companies that do not support our values. When these corrupt companies expose themselves, it makes it easier to stop supporting them.

  7. How very SAD for Patagonia to “IMMATURELY CHOOSE SIDES” because a GOP event was hosted at the Wyoming Ski Lodge??! Very CHILDISH AND IMMATURE because that event did NOT HURT NOR CHALLENGE OUR ENVIRONMENT, nor did it cause SOCIAL UNREST! That was purely a POLITICAL MOVE BY PATAGONIA AND ALL THAT ACTION DID WAS SHOW HOW PETTY AND IMMATURE PATAGONIA’S LEADERSHIP REALLY IS!

    Sad for Patagonia and even sadder for Patagonia’s Marketing Dept as more and more Americans see the “REAL” POLITICAL MACHINE RUNNING THAT COMPANY INSTEAD OF THE QUALITY PRODUCTS AND CHOOSE TO SHOP ELSEWHERE! Tsk tsk tsk!

    1. I think we need stop lumping all Black People in with leftists. Some are, but some White People are too. It’s more culture to which we object. Those who believe in capitalism, liberty and justice for all are welcome anywhere. Don’t you agree?

  8. By the statement given by their spokesman Corley Kenna, Patagonia now refuses to sell to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort for political reasons. Can they do this? While I agree they can refuse to sell to whomever they choose a lawsuit still needs to be filed against Patagonia on the equal protection clause. This is no different than bakers, photographers and others who refuse their creative services to be used in homosexual weddings or to be involved in any way to promote the homosexual or transgender lifestyle. If the courts can force these businesses to do business with the homosexual crowd despite Constitutionally protected religious beliefs then the courts should be force Patagonia to do business with Jackson Hole Mountain Resort despite political differences protected under the 1st Amendment. Win the case, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort then tell Patagonia and their 97% foreign manufactured products to take a hike.

  9. Get woke go broke,hope you daved a bunch when things were good under trump,,because yall just blew your busuness model to smithereens..idiots.id fire anybody and everybody involved in the retarded decision. Fools

  10. Sean Hannity has said in the past he did not like boycotts because they harmed innocent company workers. In every war there is collateral damage among the innocents. We are involved in a Cold Civil War right now. The Boycott is a valuable weapon in this type of conflict. Better one should loose their employment temporarily in a Cold War Boycott, than their life in a full scale Civil War. Time to start an all out boycott of all woke companies. Hit them in the bottom line on their ledgers. Bury them in a tidal wave of red ink. Make them explain to their share holders why spreading the CRT Propaganda is more important than profits. Remember they need us, we don’t need them

    1. Just think what would happen to a company if it was boycotted by those who are on Trumps side? WOKE A COLA knows. Lost $4 BILLION after they went WOKE. Tee Hee. Sports in America are becoming losers too.

  11. Who cares, don’t buy their shit anyway, as far as i’m concerned they can move their business
    to Afghanistan and make head dress for the Taliban.

  12. They admit that they conduct their business to promote their( liberal?) political beliefs, yet they pulled their ads from Big Tech companies (that are leftist companies). Yet they apparently believe the global warming hoax and think that those who don’t are misinformed. Somebody ought to show them a mirror.

    Patagonia needs to be on a list on conservative web sites that shows confused leftist organizations and companies who need to NOT be patronized.

  13. Patagonia is nothing more than a puppet of the far left. I am sick and tired of the “woke” companies who think they can dictate what Americans think and do.

  14. Patagonia and it’s head of communications and policy Corley Kenna, don’t care about freedom of thought and speech, for if you won’t capitulate to way they believe and what they force on people, then they’re going to punish you in any way they can, for their is no tolerance of other’s freedoms, for which this country is really all about, and Communists, Socialists, and Marxists are not, and use methods to prevent people’s rights and freedoms, as Patagonia and Corley Kenna are now showing and proving.

  15. That’s great, they’ll never get another dime from me. There are PLENTY of suppliers who have better gear than patagonia, so good riddence, it’s pata gone ia for me.

  16. NEVER, EVER WILL I BUY CRAP FROM THIS OUTFIT AND ALL 15 OF MY ACTIVE WINTER SPORTS FAMILY MEMBERS AGREE. PATAGONIA CAN STICK IT WEHERE THE SUN DOES NOT SHINE.

  17. Who but the woke crowd buys patagonia crap? Another left leaning business to boycott but I already was boycotting them. Stay left Patagonia while you bleed out your business to the welfare crowd and lemmings.
