  1. She also sued her employer for wrongful termination and won a settlement. It seems like flipping off Trump’s motorcade paid dividends.

    1. @Federico Morales well said 👏👏 cos sounds like he cant take side properly..its good to have that kinda view sometimes..but one should also think of the greater good..of what impact could happens to the country if its not being addressed properly..not just say both sides have good points..when we know the other side could be prone to violence and may harm another..damn that sounds like bring apathetic person..if persona 3 is real..the world wouldve been ending too soon with that kind of people..🤔

      ” global decriminalization of homosexuality”
      i’d really like to know just how he did that
      considering we all have our own justice departments
      and no, they don’t answer to ‘murika
      Christ, any more lies you’d like to get off your chest?
      oh, and he’s already told you he’s not of the left
      can you not read, or something?
      perhaps it’s your reading comprehension problem rearing it’s ugly head again?

  2. She flipped off POS Trump, and Virginia voters did the same by flipping both the state house and senate! God I just love all this flipping 😃 Congrats to all of you! 👏

    1. @Rick Harvey there are lots of middle fingers in the US. But hey, Trump is the best Clown to happen to America in a long time. The whole world is laughing at him. Don’t stop the show. 🇺🇲? 😂😂😂!

    2. ​@Rick Harvey Then I am guessing you wouldn’t be a Trump supporter . He has led in bringing the conversation to a new low and when the leader of a country resorts to insults and barbarism it is only natural that the people will follow.

    1. @renownedfear187 lol, Y’all ? Go git ma muskit Pa, theers a Yankee prowling an’ a prattlin’ out yonder, he looks like he’s fixing to molest Ma!

    2. @Colin Cleveland
      Traitor? Tell me facts about that or is it just your poor opinion? Lets speak FACTS! Not even the congress that so desperately wants to impeach him have been able to find anything on trump. Mueller count either and you think you have proof?🤣

    3. @Rosie Her lol, stupid moron, your reply on another thread says there are no facts, just opinions.
      You asked where Trump was vulgar,
      I checked on YouTube, then gave you the search term,
      your reply was an incomprehensible word salad.

  3. I love smart, outspoken women like her, mothers of life, lionesses of the concrete jungle, honor and respect, our world needs more like that!!!

    1. @Susan Galea if a man give me the finger I kick the crap out of him, women use their female privilege to avoid being beaten to a bloody pulp. But who knows women do want equal treatment .

    2. @j Brown its funny, I’ve competed in a heavy weight division in a full contact kyokushin Karate tournament and won.. and yet you as a 55 year old woman think you could take me out. The delusion of you idiots is just unreal.

  4. “When you think things are falling apart, they may just be falling into place.”
    It’s unfortunate how many employers lack the proper, legal awareness of terminating staff.
    Fortunately, Ms.Briskman prevailed and DJT motivated her becoming an elected official. Undoubtedly,
    it will be his own actions that create the wave of voters who will send him on his way.

    1. @stephen wedderburn
      Republicans continue to lose all credibility, whatever they might have had remaining. But, now they are grasping. Much like DJT they appear to think they’re untouchable but their ever-changing list of defences is ever-changing. DJT has spent his entire adult life being a con man who was willing to abuse anyone for the sake of benefitting himself. He even attempted to manipulate his father into re-writing his will. https://www.businessinsider.com/nyt-trump-tried-change-fred-trump-will-2018-10
      He has cheated on each of his several wives. If his own family is unable to trust him why should anyone else.? From day 1 I have continued to think all that has occurred was required. DJT has gone through his life never being punished for any of his countless illegal acts, and so this was one of the few ways that would motivate his being caught, and it has also shown Americans that the “checks and balances” so many have understood to be in place, is not and needs considerable revisions to be corrected.
      It’s astounding the Electoral College has not been abolished. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by in excess of 3 million votes suggesting considerably more Americans chose her to be their president. But, it was a reaction of the antiquated Electoral College that put DJT in the Oval Office. The Electoral College was designed out of concern the North would outnumber the South, in a direct election system. At the time, slaves (more than half a million in all) in the South could not vote, but the Electoral College let each Southern state count slaves, with a two-fifths discount, in computing its share of the overall count. Had the system’s pro-slavery tilt not been overwhelmingly obvious it quickly became so. For 32 of the Constitution’s first 36 years, a white slaveholding Virginian occupied the presidency. Even then Republicans were manipulating voters.
      As is so often the case with Conservatives they attempt to use arrogance as a way to motivate support in their direction and arrogance is nothing more than an attempt to disguise insecurity. But it is the lack of actual facts or that most of what Republicans suggest rarely comes to fruition that ultimately leads Republicans to bad mouth and insult Democrats. The “squad” threatens Republicans by being truthful, something the GOP has very little interest of. Republicans fail to understand “insulting others is the reaction of insecure people with a crumbling position trying to appear confident.”
      It doesn’t take much effort to understand “trickle-down” doesn’t offer what was sold.

      https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jun/12/why-are-we-still-pretending-trickle-down-economics-work
      In fact, similar economic plans are what motivated the Great Depression when H.Hoover pursued a similar idea. The
      Republican economic myth had previously been known as the “horse and sparrow – “eed the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows.’ The term “trickle-down” originated as a joke by humorist Will Rogers and today is often used to criticize economic policies which favour the wealthy or privileged while being framed as good for the average citizen.

      Many economists understand cutting taxes for the poor, and working families generate better returns as they’ll put that cash back into the economy. A study in the Journal of Political Economy found, contrary to trickle-down theory, that “the positive relationship between tax cuts and employment growth is largely driven by tax cuts for lower-income groups and that the effect of tax cuts for the top 10 per cent on employment growth is small.”

      Stands to reason, and common sense, decreasing taxes(GOP) leads to less cash to spend motivating greater debt to cover for lost revenue but increasing taxes(Dems) leads to greater benefits and less debt.
      DJT is a troubled and very troubling individual. He can and does volunteer what he wants Americans to believe but the facts continue to contradict a great deal of the information he dishonestly claims to be truthful. His insecurities drive his obsession with Obama and his need to constantly, daily, tear others down is a childish attempt to motivate attention onto himself, by then building himself up. Inferiority is at the heart of his behaviour. Constantly bragging about his lifestyle, wealth, his “stable genius” “big brain with the best words,” is a psychological reaction of the insecure doing so to convince themselves that they really do have worth. DJT is not the success he would have anyone who listens believe. Some still believe Republicans to be the party that’s better for business. Well, like most things Republicans say these days, it’s not true. In fact, it’s not even remotely close to true. The truth is: The economy does considerably better under Democratic presidents. Indeed, it does a lot better—so much better economists are almost kind of confused by it. The United States absoloutely experiences far greater prosperity and benefits under a Democratic administration. Anyone looking to argue that fact should take it up with the American Economic Assoc., it’s not a partisan claim, it is not an opinion, it is a fact.

      While one can easily cherry-pick brief periods and economic measures that show superior economic performance under Republicans, over any lengthy comparison period (say, 25 years more), by pretty much any economic measure, Democrats have outperformed Republicans for a century. In fact, the Republican initiative is in part some of the reason for the inequality the nation experienced and it’s only getting worse.

    2. @Butch Lane the republicans knew about trumps criminal behaviour long before he was nominated. McConnell needed someone to nominate his lackey pseudo religious judges. Surely once the democrats take all 3 branches they can bring in legislation to remove these wholly unfit political judges? Because they will have a detrimental effect on lots of issues that they shouldn’t be judging on because of those biases and misunderstanding of the law! I hope that the damage these deplorable republicans have done can be reversed!

    3. @Gloria Sheppard
      My apology Gloria, I know the truth hurts.
      Maybe avoid believing all your told based on who said it. Step outside Conservative links and pursue actual facts. But please, do your VERY best to prove me wrong.
      BUT, FACT: DJT failed to receive enough votes previously, and now having seen the damage he’s done MANY MANY voters have volunteered to never vote for DJT again, SO, with those facts that suggest he will receive even fewer votes in 2020 than in 2016, you might wanna reconsider your “MAGA” order before it’s shifted from China.
      FACT: Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by in excess of 3 million votes suggesting considerably more Americans chose her to be their president. But, DJT becoming president was a reaction of the antiquated Electoral College. The Electoral College was designed out of concern the North would outnumber the South, in a direct election system. At the time, slaves (more than half a million in all) in the South could not vote, but the Electoral College let each Southern state count slaves, with a two-fifths discount, in computing its share of the overall count.

    1. #LSSC: Briskman has given Virginia its new state bird. 🤣😂🤣 There’s a reason that photo went viral, but it’s not the reason she was elected. She has an impressive CV, including serving this country’s interests in Kazakhstan for State.

    1. @jarrod goforth You’re IQ is in the negative spectrum tbh. Obama dropped over 20,000 bombs and invaded 7 countries. But I believe whatever FNN says right?

    2. @pie worm Worm pie I would be a damn
      idiot to believe that Republican hogwash
      you just typed. That is complete and utter bullshit you forget i can search the web and debunk your sad little attempted to try to smear Obama’s legacy with your stupid Republican conspiracy theory.

      . Now run along and keep chanting Mexico will build a wall in America to keep themselves out of.And you MAGA idiots
      got the nerve to insult someone’s IQ
      (GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE)

    3. @David Rodgers lol, piss off back to Fox News, where they regularly prevent comments, because of the disgusting racist and violent language.
      Troll harder, Trumpette.

    4. @TheTruthIsRacist lol, you are so low IQ you can’t even tell the difference between program and programmed.
      Typical anonymous Trump wimp…

    1. @123 456 Why not concentrate on your life and forget about the President of the United States?i,m sure you will be happier

    2. @andrew chambers
      The orange clown makes me laugh everyday. ‘Believe me, trust me’, as he would say. Why should I stop laughing???

    3. @andrew chambers the orange clown makes me singing. Everyday I enjoy watching new YouTube vids and hear the audience singing …

  5. That’s awesome.. I thought of her when trump got booed at the world series… Had no idea she was involved with politics

    1. @Joe Kinchicken First over our cold dead bodies will that orange idiot get a second term
      and second “You MAGA MAGGOTS have no room to call out anyone for vulgar public displays”
      When you cult members love to attended (Trump’s self absorbed hate rallies).
      Where you chant very disgusting ignorant and just plain stupid things.

    2. @Jacob Patrekur Trump can’t accept anything that requires that you have to read or write
      since he can’t comprehend big words or things with a comma
      even understand anything or anyone outside his own Narcissism

  6. “The office of the President” Please, Pu$$y grabber in Chief has been sh$tting in the Oval Office since day one! How about you point that out🤨

    1. @Elkslayer Look , I would rather have Billion dollar companies creating jobs in America , than have these Fortune 500 companies be taxed the hell out of by Pocahontas Warren and these companies flee to Ireland ok . That’s what happened before Trump , and what will happen without Trump .That’s reality .

    2. @Larrygilbertreyes ReyesLook , Trump gave 16 Billion from the China Tarrifs to the Farmers across USA . If the Farmers were too stupid , and their pride kept them from taking that money their bankruptcies are on them .They should have taken the money Trump offered . Guess you can lead the horses to water , but can’t make them drink it . 🤔🙄😵😬😱😨😧😦😲💀

    3. @Barry McCockiner the problem I have is Trump has massively helped the rich..With the removal of the AMT big corporations are making billions off us tax payers.
      $36.2 billion in 2017 was generated because of the AMT
      $5.2 billion in 2018 after Trump got his hands on it
      Trumps tax return from 2015 shows:
      Trump paid $38 million dollars that year in taxes
      However-$31 million of that was because of the AMT
      He reported that year he made $152.7 Million then turned around and reported losses and deductions of $152.7 million…

    4. @Barry McCockiner guess you don’t know what tariffs are , it’s an import tax that American consumers pay, and the money trump used was farmer disaster relief fund , please get your facts straight, man don’t grasp for straws this pres is a joke and tearing our country apart, with your help.

    1. @John Johnson You Know What, MR. JOHNSON…..I THINK WE WILL GO…We’ll Just Watch & Laugh As TRUMP & HIS ” GIRLFRIEND” PUTIN..TAKE OVER!! IT WOULD VE A PLEASURE TO WATCH YOU & YOUR FELLOW-TRUMPSTERS Being Told, WHEN, & IF YOU ALL CAN ” TAKE A CRAP” ( You will have to have their Permission. You Know)…Aaaah. What JOY it would Be to Watch a WHITE MAN Telling ANOTHER WHITE MAN, ” TO SHINE HIS SHOES”…BUT WAIT…YOU JUST NAY BE JUST AS ” SPECIAL” AS YOU THINK YOU ARE TO TRUMP & HE NAY EVEN GIVE YOU A JOB ” BUILDING A WALL”, WOULDN’T THAT BE FUN???THAT IS, IF HE CAN REMEMBER WHAT STATES ARE ” ACTUALLY BORDERING MEXICO”….THERE’S ALWAYS HOPE…..🤣

    1. Yes…however if she was wearing corporate colors she represents more than herself. I know poeple with county or city jobs and if they get a DUI or somehow get into trouble and they are in uniform or car then it usually is double indemnity. But you are right.

    2. @A. Murphy don’t stop the TrumpTrain. He’s the best Clown to happen to America in a long time. The whole world is laughing at him. Don’t stop the show.

  7. God bless “nasty women” all over this country! Vote, volunteer, and run for local offices! 🇺🇸🗽🦅

    1. @Jonathan Sterling at least we’re not on the FBI or the Homeland Securities terrorist watch list like you right-wing Trump trash

    2. @Jonathan Sterling Democracy Dies in Darkness

      A man assaulted a boy for ‘disrespecting’ the national anthem. His lawyer says Trump told him to do it.
      By Michael Brice-Saddler
      August 8, 2019 at 2:43 PM EDT
      An attorney for the Montana man accused of slamming a 13-year-old boy’s head into the ground for not removing his hat during the national anthem says President Trump’s “rhetoric” is partially to blame for his client’s actions.

    3. @nunya business
      Since when is the cannibal left concerned about violence? One of your passive-aggressive comrades was sentenced to six years in prison a few days ago, for bludgeoning someone he disagrees with. Fox reported it, but none of your TDS-deranged channels reported it.
