A Maine high school teacher is under investigation after posting an unhinged, profanity-laced Facebook rant in which she called for the deaths of President Donald Trump and his supporters — even invoking the Secret Service to “take them out.”
JoAnna St. Germain, an English teacher at Waterville Senior High School, published a series of public posts this week advocating political violence, according to the New York Post. In one message, she wrote, “Trump and his cronies need to die.” St. Germain also openly fantasized about the Secret Service targeting Trump supporters. Her Facebook page currently cannot be accessed.

St. Germain insisted she wasn’t calling for the assassination of a president — only because she doesn’t consider Trump a legitimate one. In a follow-up comment, she doubled down: “When I say that Trump and all the sycophants he’s surrounded himself with need to die, I mean that s–t. I’ll die on that hill, happily.”
The posts, which remained public on her Facebook page, sparked immediate outrage. But instead of apologizing, St. Germain dared critics to come after her. “I have zero shame about what I’ve said,” she wrote. “I’m not backtracking a single thing.”
She said she expected to be fired, saying, “I posted [this] knowing I’d likely lose my job and benefits.”
Waterville Public Schools Superintendent Peter Hallen publicly responded, saying the district had “taken steps to ensure everyone’s safety” and that the matter was being actively investigated in coordination with authorities.

St. Germain fired back.
“If you’re mad that I’m speaking truth to power? F–k you,” she wrote, lashing out at anyone critical of her comments.

As of now, no disciplinary action has been announced, but the district has remained quiet about the next steps.
