When the opportunity to hit the neo-Nazi-sympathizer-in-chief with a beautifully presented middle finger arises, don't ask questions. Flip that bird with pride.
Juli Briskman recently did exactly that while cycling next to Trump's begging-to-be-flipped-off motorcade in Virginia, resulting in a photo that fittingly went viral.
Speaking with the Huffington Post over the weekend, Briskman revealed that her employer fired her over the gorgeous, frame-worthy photograph. Though Briskman was not on the clock at the time the photo was taken, government contractor Akima LLC still decided to show Briskman the door by claiming she had violated their social media policy when she understandably made the bird-flipping photo her profile picture. None of Briskman's social media accounts list or otherwise mention her employer, she noted.
"[Trump] was passing by and my blood just started to boil," Briskman said of her pre-middle finger thoughts. "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." Briskman added that she has zero regrets about flipping that fucking bird.
A male Akima worker, Briskman said, was allowed to keep his job after calling someone a "fucking Libtard asshole" on social media. After working in communications and marketing at Akima for six months, Briskman is now looking to land a job somewhere less shitty like PETA or Planned Parenthood.
In honor of Briskman, I'd like to share my own message for Trump.
