At least some of the leftists who took to social media to celebrate the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on July 13 are regretting it.
Some have resigned jobs, some have been fired, and some have been suspended, including the FBI employee who thought the deranged “memes are gold.”
And once again, the Libs of TikTok website is responsible for dragging the deranged leftists out of their corner of the social media barnyard in which they disport themselves.
FBI Agent
What might be the closing days of FBI employee Jenna Howell’s employment began, as The New American reported on Monday, when she posted a meme of the Grim Reaper almost pulling a tiny caricature of Donald Trump out of a crane claw machine.
Former FBI agent Kyle Seraphin reproduced Howell’s commentary.
Howell also fired this shot at gun owners:
Y’all gun-toting, 2nd Amendment-loving hillbillies better just sit down and stay quiet unless you’re gonna change your mind on gun control.
“Jenna Howell, an @FBI employee … posted her disappointment @realDonaldTrump survived an assassination attempt,” Seraphin wrote. “Jenna has a Top Secret clearance.”
Seraphin called Howell a “typical FBI support employee” who “hates gun owners.”
As well, she’s an ardent partisan for the Lavender Lobby, and “is confrontational and insulting to veterans with total impunity.”
And the FBI, the former agent wrote, encourages such behavior.
A day later, Seraphin reported that the bureau suspended Howell, who works in the Identity Research Department, citing sources inside the once highly regarded federal law enforcement agency.
An FBI whistleblower posted:
The worst sin an @FBI employee can commit is embarrassing the FBI. They’ll let drug addicts and domestic violence abusers skate. Just don’t get caught.
To X users who wondered whether Howell will only suffer a mild suspension, Seraphin said he believes she won’t return to work.
“Her previous inappropriate behavior is being considered,” he wrote. “This looks like it will be permanent.”
Democrats Being Suspended
Howell, of course, was not alone in her sentiments. Libs of TikTok (LOTT) uncovered myriad similar sentiments from top Democrats, teachers, university professors, and even healthcare workers.
Democratic Mississippi Representative Bennie Thompson fired staffer Jacqueline Marsaw for wishing Trump had been killed, and New York City Mayor Eric Adams suspended one of his top aides for the same thing.
Shawn Raup-Konsavage is the mayor of Berville, Pennsylvania. “#PennsylvaniaProud,” he wrote. “Try harder.”
The Reading Eagle reported that a change.org petition to recall him now has 3,700 signatures.
Teachers, Counselors, State Employees
Jennifer Ripper, a teacher at Semper Elementary School in Westminster, Colorado, also wanted Trump assassinated.
“Looks like he ALMOST got taken out,” she wrote.
“Dammit !!! They missed !!”an equally deranged user answered.
“My thoughts exactly,” she replied.
Parent-advocate group Crisis in the Classroom (CITC) in Golden, Colorado, reported that she is no longer on the school website.
LOTT also exposed a school counselor in North Carolina who resigned from her job, as well as Cass McLeod-Skinner, director of the Oregon Board of Chiropractic Examiners. She too expressed her disappointment that Thomas Matthew Crooks didn’t kill Trump.
“Wish they had a better scope,” a teacher at Ardmore High School in Oklahoma wrote.
After LOTT’s X post, the state school superintendent, Ryan Walters replied:
This is unacceptable. SDE [the State Department of Education] is investigating. We will not allow teachers to cheer on violence against @realDonaldTrump.
A lawyer with the Iowa State Public Defender’s office might well find herself unemployed, too. “Dammit,” she wrote on learning that Trump survived. Called to account by another user, she answered: “They missed! … Honest. Put it this way, I’m Glad Hitler is dead.”
The director of the office called her comments “reprehensible.”
