Woman Fired For Flipping Trump The Bird Isn’t Even Sorry ‘Bout It

Here’s a heartwarming story of triumph over adversity for you. A Virginia woman who went briefly viral for flipping off Trump‘s motorcade over the Halloween weekend has announced that she basically doesn’t give a shit that she was fired for doing it.

As you can see in the above photo, Juli Briskman absolutely took her best shot while cycling alongside Trump’s cars. It was a moment of hot-blooded passion, as she told HuffPo:

[The president] was passing by and my blood just started to boil. I’m thinking, DACA recipients are getting kicked out. He pulled ads for open enrollment in Obamacare. Only one-third of Puerto Rico has power. I’m thinking, he’s at the damn golf course again. I flipped off the motorcade a number of times.

A NUMBER OF TIMES. Can’t fault her for effort. Unfortunately, Briskman suffered the slings and arrows of viral fame when her employer, government contractor Akima LLC, caught wind of what was going on. She was upfront with her HR department about what had gone on and the ensuing online attention, and they fired her for it.

In her interview, Briskman pointed out that a fellow male co-worker hadn’t been fired for publicly calling someone “a fucking Libtard asshole” on another post. He was allowed to delete the post and keep on keeping on.

But in the end, she’s not mad she was let go. In fact, she’s flourishing.

“In some ways, I’m doing better than ever,” Briskman told HuffPo. “I’m angry about where our country is right now. I am appalled. This was an opportunity for me to say something.”

At the end of the day, she’s got a corker Facey profile pic that’ll no doubt remain cool for upwards of an entire year. And at the end of the day, that’s all you need.
