Waterville Teacher Calls on the Secret Service to Assassinate Trump, Says She’d Do It Herself if She Could

An English teacher at Waterville Senior High School took a break on Tuesday from instructing students on grammar and syntax to publicly call for the Secret Service to assassinate President Donald Trump and his supporters.

“The Secret Service has the perfect opportunity, if they choose to step up and take it. You are the ones with power. Coordinate. Take out every single person who supports Trump’s illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts. Look at the sycophants and give them what they’re asking for. Every other country sees what’s happening and they are taking stands. If you step up, we can avoid a civil war,” said JoAnna St. Germain in the pinned post on her Facebook account.

“I’m not talking about assassinating a president. A president is a person duly elected by the American people. Tr*mp has shamelessly bragged openly about stealing the election. He is making plans to give himself a third term. I’m talking about Americans recognizing a fascist dictatorship and standing against it,” she added.

St. Germain regretfully explained that she would happily murder President Trump and “every single person” who supports him herself, but that she lacks the necessary skills, and she called on the Secret Service and the military to carry out the murders instead.

“Secret Service, you are Americans. My beloved military, you are Americans. We, the people, are counting on you. If I had the skill set required, I would take them out myself. I’m making this post public for a reason, I promise you. Don’t waste time wondering if I’m okay. I’m not. If you’re okay, you’re lying to yourself,” said St. Germain.

St. Germain’s call for the murder of every Trump supporter puts Trump-supporting parents in the uncomfortable position of sending their children to be taught by a woman who, quite literally, wants them dead and has even expressed a desire to commit murder herself if she had the “skill set required.”

The Maine Wire reached out to Principal Brian Laramee of the Waterville Senior High School, asking whether any disciplinary action will be taken against St. Germain for her violent rhetoric, but they did not immediately respond.

After The Maine Wire called attention to St. Germain’s rant on social media, and reached out to her principal, she posted a series of additional posts clarifying her comments.

“My friends. I am so sorry you took that post to mean that all Republicans should die. I have no beef with Republicans. I have no beef with MAGA. I meant that those in the room with Trump, who are permitting and approving his egregious actions, need to be held accountable,” she said.

“I’ve been teaching history for so long, and it’s very difficult to watch things repeat in rhymes. I love each and every one of you, and I understand why you’re angry with me. I love your children. I love the disabled. I love the LGBTQ+ community. I love black and brown people. I love autistic people. My love holds no quarter for people in power actively harming those I love,” she added.

St. Germain claimed that she did not wish death on MAGA Republicans broadly and specified that she did not mean that “every single person who supports” Trump’s policies should die, despite saying that in her original post, which she has not taken down.

After the seemingly apologetic statement, she added that she did not intend to backtrack on any of what she said.

She then added to her screed, referring to people as “illiterate bums” and reiterating her desire for the president’s death.

“You illiterate bums, oh my gosh. I posted knowing I’d likely lose my job and benefits. I have zero shame about what I’ve said. I’m not backtracking a single thing. I believe Trump and every sycophant he has surrounded himself with (this is not you – if you’re reading this, this doesn’t apply to you. You are beneath his notice and mine) needs to die,” said St. Germain.

Under former President Joe Biden, a Waterville man was investigated and eventually arrested after making similar online statements, where he expressed a desire to kill President Biden and expressed hope that Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) would be shot.

It remains to be seen whether law enforcement will be as thorough in investigating St. Germain’s comments about Trump and his supporters.

Thanks to this brain trust school choice is now practically guaranteed. When they debate school choice all they’ll have to do is bring up this looser picture, case closed. Not sure who’ll be more mad at her, the people she insulated or the teachers who don’t want school choice. Probably better move to Canada, they seem more like your type.

Ask her if she believes in Jesus. Her statement implies she does as she wants the president to have a conversation with him. 1000 to 1 she says no. Strange how illogical and irrational all the thought processes are from the left now. They very rarely have a coherent thought come out of their mouth. Colleges have really destroyed our citizens. Maybe we should doge ncaa.

Stop letting her off the hook by calling her insane. She’s not insane – she’s knows what she’s doing and that it’s wrong. She has control over her behaviors, thoughts and emotions, She deserve jail, not a hospital. It’s an insult to people will actually MH to put her in the same category.

The one that issued an executive order to pay off student loans, which was determined to be illegal by the Supreme Court, but he proceeded to do it anyway.

The one that wanted to tell you what kind of car to drive.

The one that wanted to tell you what kind of stove you could have in your kitchen.

The one that signed an executive order to FORCE YOU to take a vaccine that has now been proven to be ineffective and sometimes dangerous.

Whoops, that was Biden the dictator. I wonder if she wanted him killed, too.

Seamus, please follow up with your reporting on this horrific individual who obviously has mental issues with a dangerous hating ax to grind. The End Waterville School Board needs to fire her, never to be allowed to teach again. The police need to arrest her. As a reprobate, she needs serious jail time for her threats! I’d like to know what parents are saying.

The hubris and ignorance the left has to have to believe such an egregious act would prevent civil war.

Does the left honestly believe they can commit all manner of violence and crimes against their opponents, without those opponents ever fighting back?!

It doesn’t matter how nice and docile an animal is, you beat it long enough, it will eventually reach its breaking point and show its teeth. By and large, the right is comprised of good, law abiding people who go through life trying to do the right things- the left is making a fatal mistake if they interpret those traits for weakness, cowardice or submission. I assure you, the right is perfectly capable of doing whatever they have to in defense of their rights, freedoms, lives, liberty etc.

The demonrats, commiecrats and deepstate badly want to kill Trump and it’s destructively polarizing to society. This entrenches support for Trump from people who should know better — people that know in their heart he is totally compromised.

People like this extremist-left nut are providing Trump with cover while he commits crimes-against-humanity and genocide (twice). Trump is also acting as an agent for a foreign government against the interests of the US, during wartime. This is treason. Trump needs to be removed from office and tried for these capital crimes.

This leftist trash is actually keeping this criminal in office …….
