I recently received news that came as a big surprise: the board at Goya decided I would no longer be a leader of the company. While the decision has left many questions unanswered, one thing is certain—I will not waver in my fight against child trafficking https://t.co/9XP3ArhuPs

Why is this politics? Bob Unanue was executive producer and a financial backer of Sound of Freedom. He is a fierce protector of children being trafficked. Through his foundation, GOYA cares, he has been very supportive of Tom Homan in both finding missing immigrant children and securing the border to prevent more child trafficking.

There has been some pressure to sell the family owned business to a larger food conglomerate but Bob basically scuttled those talks. This might be the other family members (aka "the board") to move back in that direction.
His support of Trump during the first Trump administration certainly does not sit well with the current Mexican government.
