Diner Announces That It Will No Longer Serve Biden Voters, Has To Temporarily Close For Amazing Reason
A diner in Central Florida that earlier announced it will not serve food for those who backs President Joe Biden, has temporarily closed down Wednesday after their food sold out.
The sudden surge in popularity of the diner occurred after multiple media outlets reported on a sign posted outside the establishment this week, which was put up in the aftermath of the deaths of 13 service members killed after a suicide bomber attack near the Kabul airport where US evacuation were ongoing that time.
“If you voted for and continue to support and stand behind the worthless, inept and corrupt administration currently inhabiting the White House that is complicit in the death of our servicemen and women in Afghanistan, please take your business elsewhere,” the sign, posted in the window of Debary Diner, said.

On Wednesday, Fox 3 reported that the diner had to close down temporarily after their food sold out amid the influx of customers.
“The Debary Diner had to close today because they’ve been so busy — they ran out of food! The owner says she stands behind her sign. What do you think? Responses may be used on air,” Danielle Lama of Fox 3 posted on Twitter.
The owner of the restaurant, Angie Ugarte, thanked the public for the outpouring support that her diner, located west of Deltona and just north of Lake Monroe, have been receiving.
“I have experienced such an indescribable outpouring of love and support that I am absolutely speechless,” Ugarte said in a social media update.
“Most of all, I am so humbled and so touched by the generous support from all over the world for our veteran community,” she added.
Ugarte said that the sign was in response to the horrifying turn of events in Afghanistan which culminated in the deaths of almost 200 Afghans and US servicemen when a suicide bomber — backed by ISIS-K — detonated a bomb killing some of those involved in the evacuation efforts out of the now-Taliban controlled country.
The owner of the diner told WOFL that she will leave the sign-up on the restaurant for as long as American citizens remain trapped in Afghanistan.
Earlier, Ugartre noted that “it was the only thing I felt like I could do” to honor the 13 service members who were killed in Afghanistan.
“I was just angry,” she said. “I was just let down. I felt like one of those mothers, or wives, or sisters who were gonna get that knock on the door,” she added, noting that many of her regular customers are military veterans.
The Biden administration has been consistent in bragging that more than 120,000 individuals have been evacuated from Afghanistan since July, including around 5,500 Americans.
Nonetheless, the Democratic administration admitted that “between 100 to 200 US citizens” remain in Afghanistan with “some inclination to depart” the country — many of whom are dual citizens.
