Therese Okoumou; Abolish ICE
Therese Okoumou climbed the feet of the Statue of Liberty yesterday to protest the Trump immigration policy that has been in effect through the last three presidential administrations. Her stunt resulted in an end to planned July 4th festivities on Liberty Island according to the New York Post;
Cops say Therese Patricia Okoumou — a 44-year-old immigrant from the Democratic Republic of the Congo — was the person responsible for the Fourth of July protest.
She lives in the St. George neighborhood of Staten Island and is currently in federal custody, according to police sources.
Officers from the NYPD’s Emergency Service Unit transported her to a federal detention center Wednesday night following her three-hour standoff with authorities. Her case is being handled by prosecutors in the Southern District of New York.
Sources said Okoumou told investigators she climbed up to the feet of Lady Liberty to protest President Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy on immigration and the separation of families at the border.
From The Washington Times;
Regardless of her status, she and a group of self-styled “resistance” members ruined Independence Day celebrations for numerous New Yorkers and tourists. After about six were arrested for unfurling a banner calling for the immigration-enforcement agency to be abolished, her bid to scale the statue and refusal to come down prompted the National Park Service to shut the park down for the rest of the afternoon.
Despite pleas that she come down from the side of the statue, according to NBC News, Ms. Okoumou said she wouldn’t until all the immigrant children detained by ICE have been released.
She’ll face numerous misdemeanor charges in Federal court today.

My thought seeing this was evacuating the island was an over reaction to one nitwit. It will embolden others to shut things down with minimal effort. BUT, I wasn’t there so maybe there was a good reason.
If she was a resident alien, she might regret doing that when she gets back to the shit hole she came from.
You have to proceed on the worst case scenario. She may have been there to do a lot more than just be a stupid monkey climbing a statue. As they say; “better safe than having monkey guts splattered all over the Statue of Liberty”.
Then again, think of all the folks she pissed off when the park was shut down. Rational folks will blame her and her fellow “resisters” for ruining their day.
Throw that mentally retarded piece of crap off the top of the Statue of Liberty, and scrape up whatever is left and send it to the Congo postage DUE!
I wonder how many new, New York, Trump voters she and her idiot fellow Democrat demonstrators created yesterday?
Let’s hope they keep it up.
Maxine’s law of unintended consequences.
One does not interrupt their enemies while they are making fatal mistakes, I hope they keep it up!
The Post’s story relates her multiple previous issues. She is an ingrate and a troublemaker from the shithole formerly called Zaire. Of course, Africans change the names of their countries every few weeks, depending who has the most guns and ammo.
Revoke her legal status, and boot her ass back there, and lets see how much protesting she does…F her, and all the others that ruined 4th of July celebrations. They are obviously incapable of understanding any of the meaning behind the celebrations.
I have scanned AlGore’s invention but cannot find any source that says whether the knucklehead is a US citizen. Most stories refer to her as a NY or Staten Island resident. To the Left she is a “fierce woman” and to be praised for her “resistance.” To most other people (i.e., people who are reasonable and decent) she’s an asshole of the type would like to keep out of this country.
It is obvious that she wants the USA to be the freedom loving, economic giant her former place of residence was. She is sure that without machete men, tommy gunners, and child trafficking our nation can never be great. After all, it has made the nation of (insert today’s name here) such a wonderful place.
How is she still here? Unless she’s a citizen, which would be surprising, most of the naturalized folks I know from all corners of the world are more appreciative of their adopted home, send her the F back.
Protest zero tolerance? We’ll show you what the meaning is. See ya!
Ship her back where she came from.
One of the country’s in my last unit’s area of responsibility was the DRC. It really is one of the bigger shit holes in Africa. Frankly, I’d rather be in Afghanistan than in most of those countries in Africa.
She does seem to have the requisite hippie / commie cap, and attitude filled smirk…
Back in the day NYPD would have zapped her ass, let her land in the water then leave her there and recover the body at a later time. All of this PC stuff resulted in a disappointment for hundreds of thousands of people. Growing up in New Yawk City, fireworks displays were a big deal to our family and others who didn’t have a lot of disposable income. So this bitch hurt more minorities and immigrants than her protest helped. Now the question is does she get deported?
I blame Frank Reagan.
Haha.. nice reference Jonn
I googled Frank Reagan and he was a football player.
I don’t get the reference.
There’s a floor at the Brigade CP that needs to be buffed out, Yef…
AND STOP HUFFING THE FLOOR WAX, SOLDIER!
Yef! 1SG needs coffee NOW! Then get your goat smelling ass down to supply. CLAW has yellow paint and a brush waiting. Re-stripe the company parking area and report back to me upon completion. MOVE OUT!
NOT to mention that 1SG has rocks that need painting and sandbags need to be filled.
Yes, he’s a character on a cop show. I think he is Chief of Police on a show that is set in NYC.
Tom Selleck’s character in Blue Bloods
Police Commissioner. Awesome program.
Now that’s funny!
BTW, didn’t know you had never been in the military (re Faith is back in the wire https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=79036&cpage=1#comment-3134188)
She’s gone full Bernath/Psul…
I think she has retained SHoRtBUsSsLuUurRp41 as her mentor.
She’s also making legal threats in the FB comments of that post.
And your response there will leave a mark!
I wonder if she’ll get even more Bernath/Psulian?
Don’t let em take you! Keep on climbing. Jump bytch; where’s your balls? Cleanup on aisle four of the statue please. Splatter shouldn’t take more than five minutes. Maybe others will follow and also jump. Win prizes for the most graceful jumps.
Chocolate splatter? Chimps? You take your racism lessons from Roseanne Barr? Tone it down, dude…
You meant colorist….colorism.
Nowhere was a race identified.
Practice this phrase: not my kinkajou, not my zoo.
Life will be much happier for you.
Not disagreeing with you David, but for clarification, was it racist when Ray Nagin called New Orleans a “chocolate city”, or when D.C. is referred to as such by black residents?
Only white people can be racist, haven’t you heard?
Copy MSG, is that like how the “N” word is perfectly acceptable when used by “aspiring rap artists” but cause for a public flogging when used by a white person?
Yes. Especially when said black “artist” invites a white person to sing their own lyrics on stage with them. Cue righteous indignation when said white person utters the forbidden word in your lyrics.
Fyrfighter – far from an overreactor normally, but don’t hold with preferential treatment. If the word “nigger” is unacceptable, it should be for everyone, and words like ofay, honkey, etc should be equally so. Use terms like that about others? You lose the moral high ground, and open yourself to all in turn.
I do not see either of the words or phrases you imagine you read.
What did I miss?
Was the comment edited? Not likely.
Time to get back on the meds. And don’t listen to the voices.
I thought we talked about that shit just yesterday.
I wonder how “tolerant” the leaders in the Democratic Republic of the Congo are to people like Ms. Okoumou if they had pulled a stunt like that on their Independence Day?
IIRC, the Democratic Republic of the Congo falls into the category of a “shithole country”.
Interestingly, the area of Africa from which she comes and, as far as I know, remains a citizen, was key to the success of the slave trade. The tribes in that area were the ones snatching people to sell to the English and Spanish slave buyers. And since the Left likes to shun people in American history who were slave owners, perhaps it will want to take a look at her background. Of course, that could be a problem, record-wise. I don’t think pen and paper reached that area until the 1970s.
Now 2/17, what you’re posting there seems suspiciously like facts and logic, and the left will have one of that dammit!! And for the record, owning slaves is only a bad thing deserving shunning if said slave owner was WHITE and CHRISTIAN…. Africans and muslims of any color are exempt from such rules… OBVIOUSLY you didn’t get the memo!!
There was a memo on my desk that I spilled coffee on and never got to read. Shit. That must have been the one. Thanks.
Copy. Just don’t let it happen again!
Should have ignored her and gone on with business as usual. Left her there until she starved, not allowing any others to join her or bring her food or water. Really. How long before she comes down? The reaction was exactly what she wanted. As far as her being here, if there is any way it can be done, pick her up and send her back to her country of origin, the one that sucked so much she abandoned it. Giving these people time on TV is what they want. But, no, go to extremes and deny others access to their monument b/c of one bitch with an agenda. Ignore these people.
Ignoring her is not possible. As kids on jaunts to Manhattan, we used to have fun by stopping on the sidewalk and looking up. One or two of us would point to where we were looking and, after 30 seconds, we would drop our gazes and look around to see hundreds of people looking up. Cheap laughs.
Yeah, either ignore her or pass out some BB Guns and use her for target practice.
Too many cameras to ignore. In my been there, done that mode (many many moons ago) they took time to secure the cops so they wouldn’t get hurt if they lost footing with this idiot. Hopefully the cops were from the day tour and got some OT for this. I was hoping for some heavy rain and a water slide.
Paintball guns, fully pressurized canisters, and green paint pellets.
NO Proud Infidel…..bean bag shotguns LOL
Exactly. What’s all the fuss about? Just cordon off an area so that nobody is hit by falling objects and let the rest of the world go about its business. Perhaps throw some grease on the statue so she can’t get high enough to make an overly large splatter.
A big and hearty KUTOMBA WEWE to Therese Okoumou, if the USA is such a nasty country to you then GO HOME and cuss about it, LOVE IT OR LEAVE!
She has a prior for assaulting a police officer, so she has that going for her.

I like Mexico’s laws: if you’re not a citizen you better not be caught attending a political rally or demonstration. This and some other rules: http://www.mnforsustain.org/immg_mexican_constitution%20and%20illegals.htm
Yep, those immigration laws are about the only thing of value we can import from Mexico.. and should do so ASAP…and make it clear where the laws came from, since the left will immediately claim they’re racist..
In the DRC, she’d have been tortured, raped and beheaded, not necessarily in that order, for assaulting a cop.
They are all so eager to get here and some just end up getting a mental disorder once they do and acting like we should be kissing their feet for gracing us with their presence. Far too many immigrants would be happy to kiss the ground everyday for being able to be in the US.
Fuck her. Not is a good way either. I would have thrown her ass in the river and pointed the way to Africa at gunpoint.
She can go ookoo-bookoo-sha-willywonka poopy-oomy with a big KUTOMBA WEWE from me!
Most people don’t know about the chains at the feet of Lady Liberty.
Why am I suddenly hearing a Warren Zevon song?
Which one?
Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner.
Oh, no…(groan)…
A Tin Cup has been established for her:
https://www.gofundme.com/legal-fees-for-therese-okoumou
🤔
I am very tempted to spend the $5 minimum just to express a thought or two and maybe post under a pseudonym such a “I Like ICE” or “Prince Scamamaam.” The problem is that she gets my $5 and others, seeing whatever my message would be, might be inspired to send her more money.
Nearly all of the saps are women. I’m thinking maybe the Staten Island LGBQWTFBBQ got the word out on Therese Omumbojumbo.
The donations are coming from uber Lefties, rads, and other whackies, not mid-America’s liberals. I know b/c I looked up some with unusual names and, brother, they are weird. How’s it doing? It’s “trending.” Evidently, that GFM label has nothing to do with donation amounts because the fund has $98,300 to go yet to reach its $100,000 goal. I have no doubt the organizer, one Khrystina Pryani, can be trusted. I heard her name was Gomis and she’s originally from Long Island. I think she’s an unemployed singer of some sort. I wonder what her baptismal name was.
Uh-Oh, The Whiz Wheel™® knew that was going to happen and had worked her out as only a DAM (Dumb Ass Move) to start with, but now that the tin cup is rattling it looks like this:
Therese Patricia Okoumou (BLDAM*) 35 x 5 = 175
* Bernathian Level Dumb Ass Move
That photo will be used in her claim of copper oxide poisoning.
The Tin Cup page has went “Poof” as well as has Khyrstina Pryani with any money donated.
What better poster girl than one who has committed crimes and ruined the fireworks display for thousand of kids. Now, if we learn she is not an American citizen, it will be joyously akin to watching reruns of the media the night Trump made mincemeat of Wide Load.
Once she gets out of Federal Kindergarten she needs to be sent straight to Bellevue for observation. She’s obviously not right in the head.
She needs a one-way, no frills ticket to Kinshasa.
What about the rest of the story? Did they release the children back to their home countries and abolish ICE?
She likes ropes…..
fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap
Trade her to Boko Haram for a future draft pick.
If she wanted anything other than having an entire nation dislike her, too late now.
At least when they go to kick her out she broke federal laws, so no pardon from Cuomo can keep her here.
She needs to be the face of the immigration debate. An unapologetic, violent, belligerent, ungrateful, self-entitled ass who comes here to enjoy the freedoms we have to then use those freedoms against us to turn our great country into a shithole like she came from.
Nicely said. And good point about Perry Cuomo.
Maybe she got the idea from watching the flick Saboteur with Bob Cummings chasing Norman Lloyd on the Statue of Liberty. I have the solution for all of the over the border peeps. Make every Democrat and those that are democratic liberals supply room and board in their homes for these peeps. Problem solved.
She’s been a problem child for a long time. This is from 2007 when she held a Green Card, which was expired:

How many other professional agitators have we welcomed to this country in the past few decades? Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?
Statue Of Liberty Climber Pleads Not Guilty
Go High? Just go away.
The GFM campaign for Therese Omumbojumbo is suddenly gone. It sought $100,000 to help with the climber’s legal fees and was about 98% short at the time it disappeared. I was wondering how a couple of misdemeanors would require $100,000 and I suspect the campaign establisher just pulled it out of her lefty ass. Anyway, there’s another campaign for Omumbojumbo called “Lady Congo.” It’s a tad more modest, seeking $1,000 and has no donors. Pity that.
“Okoumou was born and educated in the Democratic Republic of Congo before she moved to New York a decade ago. She is currently a resident of Staten Island.” Newsweek
I still cannot find any source that states whether the scofflaw and miscreant is now a US citizen. Cripes.
“Okoumou immigrated from Congo 24 years ago and is a US citizen She declined to discuss why she left Congo….” The Guardian. July 2018
Well, if I can trust the Lefty Guardian’s reporter not to have taken merely Okoumou’s word on that, I have my answer. I also have a question that will go unanswered. Why would she decline to tell the reporter in her one-on-one interview at an “undisclosed location” in NY why she left her native land?
Remember this nutjob from the Congo? She goes to court tomorrow.
Good. Thank you, Air Cav.
