FULL TITLE: Single mom, 50, is fired from her job at a government firm and escorted from the building after revealing she was the woman who flipped off President Trump's motorcade The cycling enthusiast who gave President Trump a piece of her mind last month when she flipped off his motorcade while out on a weekend bike ride is revealing she heard an f-word of her own soon after the incident.

Juli Briskman, 50, told The Washington Post that she was fired from her position at the Virginia-based marketing firm Akima just hours after she identified herself as the woman in the photo.

The single mother, who has two teenage children at home, claims that she was taken into a room, told she violated a section of conduct that is outlined in the company's social media policy and escorted out of the building with a box of her belongings.

That unceremonious dumping did little to make Briskman rethink her actions though, with the newly unemployed executive responding a question about any possible regrets by stating: 'I'd do it again.'

That statement was confirmed on Briskman's Facebook page, where her banner image was changed to the now-viral image of her one-fingered salute just two days before she identified herself as the woman in the photo to her bosses at Akima.

Given the grounds for her termination, it would seem that her decision to post that banner image was what ultimately led to her losing her job.

The CEO and Director of HR at Akima did not respond to requests for comment.

It's hard to understand this level of hatred. I had a woman ream me out over Trump in my Bible study. Astonishing, the hatred. I blame the media.

80% of the beltway D.C. swamp are doing the same thing in going about their swampy business of taxpayer money for nothing and their checks for free.

She is flipping off an entity which does business with the company she works for and shows it off.. I am guessing but it seems like she is kind of a lose cannon and has stepped over other bounds at company....and they decided to pull the plug on her....not good for a marketing specialist for the company if true...

Yeah, really. 50, so it’s more like single grandmother-to-be. And I don’t feel sorry for overgrown and stupid snowflakes.
