Police Investigate Profane Rant at Target Employee Wearing Late Conservative Activist's T-Shirt

Here's another glaring example of the intolerant left's unhinged rage exploding over the mere sight of American, patriotic expression: A woman unleashed a profanity-laced tirade against an elderly Target employee simply for wearing a red T-shirt emblazoned with "Freedom" and the name of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The confrontation unfolded Monday at a Target store in Northern California.

Video footage, originally posted to TikTok and later widely shared, shows the woman approaching the employee, identified online as Jeanie, while she restocked clothing.

The aggressor begins by questioning the shirt.

"Why the f—k would you wear that? You’re at work, at Target? That’s not a Target shirt. It’s not a plain red shirt," the woman says.

"Are you f—king stupid?" she continues."You support a racist?"

Jeanie remains composed throughout, explaining that Target policy allows employees to wear any red shirt.

She replies, "That’s your opinion ma’am," and later adds, "He is not a racist — have a nice day," before walking away.

WATCH:

The woman, identified by online users as Michelea Ponce, a medical staff member at Enloe Health in Chico, demands to speak to a manager and calls the shirt "unacceptable."

Chico Police Department confirmed it is actively investigating the incident, stating, "The Chico Police Department is aware of a video circulating online depicting a verbal confrontation inside a local business. We are actively investigating the incident with our local partners."

Enloe Health issued a statement on Facebook: "The Chico Police Department is investigating a social media post on the personal account of an Enloe Health employee. We are deeply concerned about the tenor of this post and the response it is creating from individuals of all political persuasions. We ask for patience and calm as we conduct our own internal investigation of this matter. In the meantime, we are relying on the expertise of the Chico Police Department to investigate any potential criminal activity or threats related to it."

Target has not responded to requests for comment on whether the shirt violates dress code.

In a swift backlash, a GiveSendGo fundraiser for Jeanie has raised tens of thousands of dollars — exceeding $120,000 in some reports — to fund a vacation or relaxation time.

The page describes the goal: "We are hoping to raise enough money so that she can afford a much-needed vacation. A time for her to relax, recharge and just forget about the ugliness."

And there you have it, folks — the radical left, programmed by corporate media and big tech overlords to despise anything remotely patriotic, like the word "Freedom" or a nod to an American flag motif on apparel honoring a slain conservative voice. They froth at the mouth and morph into rabid beasts the instant they spot it.
