A woman was removed from a commercial flight departing Miami this week after repeatedly disrupting other passengers with political outbursts, prompting applause from those on board once she was escorted off the aircraft, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.
Video of the incident circulated widely online, showing the woman engaging in a prolonged political rant while seated on the plane.
According to multiple witnesses cited by Townhall, the woman repeatedly referenced Minnesota, claimed she worked “for the people,” and asserted ties to progressive political efforts.

Other passengers appeared visibly frustrated as the disruption continued.
Witnesses told the outlet that tensions began before the flight even took off. According to accounts shared online, the woman became angry after the airline allowed disabled passengers to board the aircraft before her.
Airlines routinely permit disabled passengers to board early, along with veterans and families traveling with small children.
Once on board, the woman reportedly continued to escalate the situation. Witnesses said she began harassing another passenger, who was described as an immigrant.

The confrontation allegedly lasted more than 30 minutes as flight crew attempted to de-escalate the situation.
According to those on the flight, the woman claimed she was originally from New York but worked with a progressive organization based in Minnesota.
She repeatedly insisted that she was being targeted for removal because of her political views and claimed that most of the passengers on the aircraft were conservatives.
Video footage shows the woman continuing to argue as airline staff moved forward with removing her from the plane.
As she exited the aircraft, other passengers can be heard applauding, a reaction that was captured clearly in the recording shared online.

Townhall reported that the woman referenced connections to Minnesota politics during her outburst, though no evidence was provided confirming her employment with any government office.
The outlet noted that she made repeated references to her political work and beliefs during the confrontation.
The airline involved has not publicly released the woman’s identity, nor has it issued a detailed statement explaining the removal beyond standard safety and conduct policies.
Airlines maintain broad authority to remove passengers who interfere with crew instructions or disrupt the comfort and safety of others on board.
The incident highlights the limited tolerance airlines have for prolonged disturbances, particularly when political arguments spill into confined spaces such as aircraft cabins.
Federal aviation regulations allow airlines to remove passengers whose behavior interferes with flight operations or the safety of others.
While the woman claimed she was removed for political reasons, witnesses and video evidence suggest the decision followed extended disruption and repeated complaints from other passengers.
No arrests were reported in connection with the incident, and it was not immediately clear whether the woman was rebooked on a later flight.
The video ends with audible cheers and applause from passengers as the woman leaves the plane, underscoring the relief among those who had endured the prolonged disturbance before departure.
