WOKE Park Employee FIRED for Massive Trans Flag Stunt at Yosemite Sues Trump

A fired National Park Service employee who plastered a massive transgender activist flag across Yosemite's iconic El Capitan rock formation is now suing the Trump administration, claiming discrimination after learning that actions have consequences.

Shannon Joslin, a female probationary wildlife biologist from El Portal, California, who identifies as "non-binary," decided to turn America's treasured national park into her personal political battleground last year to protest President Trump's common-sense policies affirming biological reality.

The stunt involved covering the side of the world-famous granite monolith with what park officials described as a "gargantuan trans-activist flag" - turning one of America's most beloved natural landmarks into a woke propaganda display.

Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes

Park officials weren't having it. Joslin was promptly terminated for what the National Park Service called an unauthorized demonstration that violated federal regulations.

"Demonstrating without a permit outside of designated First Amendment areas detracts from the visitor experience,"

a park spokesperson explained, noting the obvious - that families visiting Yosemite shouldn't have to explain radical gender ideology to their children while trying to enjoy America's natural beauty.

But instead of accepting responsibility for her actions, Joslin is now playing the victim card, filing a lawsuit claiming the Trump administration discriminated against her for her "non-binary" identity. Because apparently, following basic park rules is now considered discrimination if you're part of the alphabet soup crowd.

Trump's Reality-Based Policies Working

This case perfectly illustrates why President Trump's decisive action to restore sanity to federal agencies was so desperately needed. For too long, woke activists embedded in government positions believed they could use taxpayer-funded jobs as platforms for their radical agenda.

The Trump administration's "reality-affirming policies regarding gender" - recognizing the basic biological truth that there are only two sexes - have sent shockwaves through the deep state's army of progressive activists masquerading as public servants.

Patriots across America are celebrating as Trump continues draining the swamp of woke ideologues who think our national parks exist to promote their fringe political beliefs. Will this lawsuit succeed, or will common sense prevail once again?

Good! National parks should remain politically neutral spaces for ALL Americans to enjoy. Keep your activism out of our treasured public lands.

Exactly right. I go to Yosemite to escape politics and enjoy God's creation.

Why is this employee suing Trump when they got fired for violating workplace policies? Actions have consequences - seems like a frivolous lawsuit to me.

We took our kids to Yellowstone last summer and thankfully didn't encounter any of this nonsense. Parks should be about nature and history, not pushing political agendas on families trying to have a nice vacation.

Same here - really hope the new administration cleans house in these agencies.
