Secret audio reveals Maine teacher ranting about politics, mocking Trump-supporting parents
Maine Wire ^ | 10-16-2022 | Steve Robinson

Shocking audio obtained by The Maine Wire reveals a Maine public school teacher subjecting a student to a racially charged political rant and telling the middle schooler his conservative parents only support former President Donald Trump because they are uneducated.

The audio, which was recorded in April, features the voice of Ann Cook, a resource room instructor for Gray-New Gloucester Middle School. It was recorded in secret by a middle school student who was concerned with some of the conversations he had had with Cook, including conversations about her and other students’ sexuality.

In the audio, the teacher tells the student that his Trump-supporting parents are uneducated victims of propaganda before proceeding to make several questionable or outright false claims about Trump, President Joe Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“Your father and stepfather are just caught up in the propaganda,” Cook tells the middle schooler. “They believe the lies. And that’s the whole point of lying is that people believe it just ‘cause you say it.”

Cook says that when she sees someone wearing a Trump MAGA hat, she thinks to herself, “that’s somebody who needs to be educated.”

Give parents a voucher FOR THE FULL PRICE IT COSTS PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO 'EDUCATE' A CHILD - then parents can send their kids to any school they choose.

When that happens schools WILL dump idiot teachers or go under.

All the public schools are hotbeds of leftist activism. They’re churning out conga lines of tens of millions of new leftist voters every year...

As some continue to blame the few moving in from CA for their states turning left. Heads in the sand...

I just saw a story of a homeless lady who Trump has allowed to live in Trump Tower for 8 years. He has her order from room service 3 meals a day and she says he send flowers to her each week. She is a black woman who sounds like she is mentally challenged and no one reports THAT story.

I remember the fat pig teacher that bullied the little girl in 2008 about McCain causing her Dad to be deployed overseas forever. The poor kid was in tears.

Nope, these days *resource room* teachers are for the (allegedly) slow kids who get pulled out of class and are given preferential treatment when it comes to classwork and assistance.

Liberalism is a religion for those on the left, and if we are going to ban religion in schools we should absolutely include Marxism and the input of leftist ideologues.

Education should have never been handed to the government. Public education is like a horse and buggy in this day and age.

After the audio was disclosed to the district, the distract did not take any disciplinary action against Cook. She remains a resource room teacher for the middle school, according to the district’s website.

She's still listed here:

Resource room teacher is a “special educator” that works with students on IEPs, low performing students, or impaired students.
