A woman who berated a Target employee for wearing a Charlie Kirk t-shirt was investigated after sharing footage of the altercation online.
In a since deleted viral video, Michelea Ponce confronted elderly Chico Target employee Jeanie Beeman over her choice of attire.
Beeman was wearing a bright red T-shirt with a white American flag and the words 'Freedom' and 'Charlie Kirk' printed on the front.
'Why the f*** would you wear that? You're at work. At Target...You support a racist,' Ponce said in the footage, moving the camera so that Beeman's outfit could be seen from all angles.
'It's a Charlie Kirk shirt. Are you f***ing stupid?'
After almost a minute of harassment, Beeman simply responded, 'That's your opinion ma'am. Have a nice day' and moved in a different direction.
Enloe Health president Mike Wiltermood said at a press conference Wednesday that the company had received thousands of 'profanity-laced' calls. He asked that people stop using the company's main phone number.
Wiltermood expressed sympathy toward Beeman and condemned his employee's actions.
Beeman's supporters started an online fundraiser hoping to 'raise enough money so that she can afford a much-needed vacation' and 'forget about the ugliness.'
'Please help us send this incredible woman on an unforgettable trip where she gets some peace of mind amidst all that has transpired, or even just let her splurge for Christmas,' the fundraiser organizer wrote. 'Whatever she needs.'
With a goal of $150,000, the site is just $30 short as of Wednesday night.
All of Ponce's social media profiles have been deactivated since the video went viral

I heard she got fired and that the fundraiser for Ms. Beeman is now over $0200k
Michelea Ponce needs to experience what cancellation looks and feels like. A dispicable piece of human waste. Jeanie Beeman is clearly the sober mind here. A response of kindness wasn’t necessary but she handled the human fruitcake with care. I hope she gets every penny being collected for her. She didn’t deserve the abuse.
If I were sick or infirm, I would not want to find myself under Karen’s care if she found out that I post on this site.
Scary to think that she could have intentionally hurt someone because they didn’t fit her world view.
Agreed. She’s got a screw loose, and a nasty streak, too. That’s a bad combo.
"Enloe Health president Mike Wiltermood... asked that people stop using the company's main phone number." oh yeah, and "Wiltermood expressed sympathy toward Beeman and condemned his employee's actions" yadda yadda yadda
Wonderful.
None of us would.
Clothing Outrage Syndrome ?
A sizable donation to Mrs. Brenna’s go fund me from ELNOE HEALTH would go a long way toward putting this despicable act to bed.
Quite.
True.
The Karen has a passing resemblance to Marie Harf.
Why are so many people so unhinged? They need mental help. Seriously.
I heard the video and I'll just say she has to go through the rest of her life being HER. Miserable and looking to browbeat strangers over politics.
people like her turn into Audrey “Aiden” Hale far too easily- The left are a dangerous party!
Enloe should keep getting calls until they learn to be more careful about hiring unhinged moonbats.
It’s gotta be the phones. Or mabye the phones are just showing us what was always there.
