How Negotiation really works.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer was harassed at an Apple store over the weekend by a woman who also claims to have organized the group that blocked Education Secretary Betsy DeVos from visiting a Washington, D.C., public school.
Shree Chauhan used Periscope to broadcast her bizarre interaction with the press secretary live. She opened by asking him how it feels "to work for a fascist" and goes on to ask him whether he is a "criminal" who has "committed treason."
"What can you tell me about Russia?" Chauhan asks Spicer, who ignored her. "How do you feel about destroying our country? Do you feel good about lying to the American people?"

Chauhan has made harassing members of the administration a regular thing. She claims to have been the organizer of the protest that stopped DeVos from visiting the Jefferson Middle School Academy after she was confirmed by the Senate.
"I was devastated by the election but I have channeled my anxiety, sadness, and anger into action," Chauhan wrote in a Medium piece to capitalize on the attention her video of Spicer was getting. "I have explained how dire the situation is to my closest friends and family, and I also organized that Betsy DeVos blockade at a local D.C. school with families and community partners."
Nobody on either side of the aisle appreciated Chauhan's action to block the DeVos school visit.
Sen. Al Franken (D., Minn.), who has been a major opponent to the administration's cabinet nominees, said that DeVos "should be able to do her job."
Arne Duncan, who was the education secretary in the Obama administration, said that this was the wrong way to oppose DeVos.
"Agree or disagree w @BetsyDeVos on any issue, but let’s all agree she really needs to be in public schools," Duncan wrote on Twitter. "Please let her in."
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser also said that DeVos is welcome to visit any school she wants.
"This bears repeating: Protest–peaceful protest–is fine but we do not condone violence towards anyone," Bowser said. "DC has the fastest growing urban school district in America. We welcome @BetsyDeVos & anyone who wants to learn more about our schools."
One of the members of Chauhan's protest was charged with assault.
Shaun wrote that her action at the Apple store will inspire others to "resist harder."
"I hope my resistance allows others to gain the courage to resist too," she wrote. "If folks are already resisting, I hope it will give them energy to resist harder. If folks have not resisted, I hope it inspires them to get involved."
On Monday Chauhan wrote on Twitter that she would take on a Twitter "hiatus" for the rest of the day, but encouraged her readers to "keep resisting."

She posted on Twitter after Trump's election that everything "post-DJT world is terrible," along with a photo of her eating "cereal milk soft serve."

I have a feeling this nasty woman is about to find out that harassment is a two way street: Act like an a-hole on the Internet, and the Internet WILL find you....all I’m sayin’...
Where was store security? Apple should not allow harassment of its customers while in their store.

“Yes, it would be fun to follow her wherever she goes and ask her all kinds of questions, similar to the ones she asks.”
That’s what we are supposed to do.
Paid agitator.
Glad I had just finished eating my cereal before seeing that.
Yep, until we make the Left despise they tactics they created, we must pummel them with their own weapons.
Clearly she’s gaining confidence and ego in this endeavor. In her heightened state of self importance she could either become dangerous or ready to step over the line and get incarcerated.
Trump and his administration need to make some examples out of people in a public manner. Otherwise, there are going to be some emboldened nutcases that try to kill him or his staff. This is no joke, these lunatics are emboldened by pop culture and media.
A normalization of violent activism is in our midst and it’s time to nip it in the bud.
Typical pushy LIB loser. It would be nice if she were suddenly fired from whatever crappy job she may have.

Wonder what method her husband used to kill himself
Amazing how the left used to LOVE Russia back when they were full blown communist!
“Not getting her share of DNA!”, Tommy Sotomayor.
Mom’s attractive. Daughter would be if she wasn’t so FAT.
I’m disappointed another customer in the store didn’t punch this ahole in the face.
Could not help but see that. What a disgusting habit.
Probably scratches her balls, picks her nose, burps and passes gas too.
There is no excuse for her behavior. Harassing anyone is ugly and is not what free speech is about. I would say that she now has two strikes against her.
An ankle bracelet with a long-life battery and addition to the TSA’s no-fly list.
Call her mommy and daddy.
Scared me, it looked like a very involved old ex.
