A social studies teacher at Kaukauna High School has been placed on administrative leave after a social media post he made following the recent shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner drew criticism from public officials and prompted a district review, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.
Patrick Meyer, identified as a teacher employed by the Kaukauna Area School District, posted a message on X that was later deleted. Screenshots of the post circulated online after the incident, which involved a suspect attempting to breach security at the annual Washington, D.C., event attended by government officials and journalists.
According to the screenshots shared by the account Libs of TikTok, Meyer wrote:
“I am not impressed with recent presidential assassins. It’s f-king embarrassing. Booth, Guiteau, Czolgosz, Oswald must all be spinning in their graves! MAGAA (make Americans great assassins again)! Sad!”

The post referenced historical figures associated with past assassinations and appeared shortly after the attempted attack at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where Donald Trump and other administration officials were present.
The remarks drew a response from Tony Wied, who criticized the message and its tone.
“This type of disgusting rhetoric has no place in our society and does not represent our values in #WI08. It is not the example that our teachers should be setting for Northeast Wisconsin students,” Wied said.
