A Utah teacher has now been placed on administrative leave after someone filmed her going on a crazy unhinged political rant where she threatened students who didn’t agree with her far-left political views. This Lehi High School teacher threatened the students with “opening a can of whoop-ass” and promised that she would “make their lives a living hell” if they did not fall in line with her beliefs. Not only that, but she threatened to make fun of them if they expressed any type of opposing view.
“Most of y’all parents are dumber than y’all, I’m going to say that out loud,” the teacher said in her rant, which also included statements regarding how much she hates former President Trump and those who won’t get vaccinated. “You don’t have to do everything your parents say and you don’t have to believe everything your parents believe.”
She proceeded to tell the students in the video, “If you don’t believe in climate change, get the hell out” and “if you’re a homophobe, get out.”
“This is my classroom and if you guys are going to put me at risk, you’re going to hear about it. Because I have to be here, I don’t have to be happy about the fact that there’s kids coming in here with their variants that could possibly get me or my family sick, that’s rude.”
The teacher claimed that it didn’t matter if the students told the administration about what she was saying because she believed that nothing would be done to her. Well, she was mistaken on that count, because after this video went public, the teacher was placed on administrative leave from the Alpine School District due to her shocking comments.
“We became aware late this afternoon of an incident that took place today in one of our high school classrooms. An immediate investigation ensued,” the school district said in a statement.”The employee has been put on administrative leave pending a thorough investigation. This behavior is inappropriate, not reflective of the professional conduct and decorum we expect of our teachers, and will not be tolerated.”
Local station KSLTV reported that “the clip was posted on rumble.com by Eric Moustos, a former Salt Lake City police officer who resigned after he objected to riding a motorcycle through the city’s gay pride parade in June 2014. More recently, Moustos has spearheaded the Utah Business Revival, which held large rallies in 2020 to protest government restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic. The clip is all that Moustos released and it’s unclear what happened before or after the recording.”
UPDATE: The district announced last Wednesday that their investigation is now finished and the teacher is no longer employed.
