As Breitbart News reported, a woman named Michela Ponce — an employee at Enloe Health in Chico, California — posted a video of herself harassing Beaman for wearing a shirt in support of Charlie Kirk while working her shift at Target last week.
In the video, Ponce hurled insults at Beeman and threatened to go to the Target manager about her outfit. However, the targeted employee remained polite throughout the horrific ordeal, telling Ponce to “have a nice day” before leaving.

The video went viral on social media, where Ponce received significant backlash.
Meanwhile, A GiveSendGo fundraising campaign It was created for Beeman in the hopes that she would “be able to afford a much-needed vacation” and find time to “relax, recharge, and forget the ugliness.”
As of Saturday evening, the fundraiser had reached $273,575 in donations.
Due to the overwhelming support, the GiveSendGo fundraising goal has been updated to $300,000.
“Maybe we can give her a vacation and retirement!” reads an updated description of the fundraiser.
