Wisconsin Teacher Placed on Leave After Controversial Social Media Post on Assassins
A social studies teacher from Kaukauna High School in Wisconsin, Patrick Meyer, has been placed on administrative leave following a controversial social media post. In the post, Meyer expressed dissatisfaction with recent presidential assassins, suggesting that historical figures like John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald would be disappointed with recent failed attempts. The post, which appeared to mock President Trump's 'Make America Great Again' slogan by using 'Make Americans Great Assassins Again,' was deleted shortly after it was posted. The Kaukauna Area School District responded by placing Meyer on leave and stated that they are reviewing the matter according to their policies. The district emphasized its commitment to a safe and supportive learning environment and rejected any conduct that promotes violence.
