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.

BINGO!!!
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner
It’s officially called “Parental Alienation” and on youtube, you need only watch Dr. Craig Childress and his lectures about how damaging this is.
Most Dads don’t walk away, they were pushed away by mommykins.
A nasty woman.
I don’t see a bike lane on that road. I wonder if bikes are even allowed.
Thanks.
And with gov’t sponsored, court ordered walletectomies of the biodad.
his buddies: that's what we tried to tell you BEFORE you got married.
"...they made it up, as usual..."
She persisted...in being an obnoxious middle aged child.
She’s a bg Cry Baby. Cry baby, cry baby, suck your Thumb!!!
I’m just stating it for the record before I get the posting police in here saying I did not search. I did and nothing came up.
The “kids” are probably in their mid 30’s -
Why do mixed race people never identify as white but ALWAYS identify with their "minority" side?
Seems to me that most people, once they discover a frikkin’ MOTORCADE is passing them, would pull over and wait. Clearly SHE was too special to do that. Makes me wonder if it was a planned stunt on her part, I mean, if she knew Trump was golfing, she knew he would be exiting the area at some point.
In fact, she’s probably lucky her TDS didn’t cause her to have a bike wreck. What a loon.
A cycling enthusiast would have a nice ass. She’s a bit broad across the beams.
I think the article said they’re teenagers. They’ll be official snowflakes in about five years.
My initial thought as well - those poor tires, straining under that incredible load. Pedaling to the park for some new Tinder profile pics - "fit, active! - seeks same"
Be kind to your enemies. It will be like throwing hot coals in them. Trump should say she was only practicing free speech. However, her employer did have the right to fire her.
“Had zi been there and it was Obamas motorcade I eould have flipped him off”
I probably would, too, in my current situation, i.e., retired and husband retired. Hubby was contractor for government defense. If either of us had flipped off any president and the word got out, it would’ve been career ending, and cause loss of security clearance.
Now, though, I’d do it in a heartbeat.
An independent photojournalist or one of the official Press Corpse took the photo, I believe. It was posted here yesterday.
