Wisconsin Teacher Allegedly Calls Rush Limbaugh's Cancer Diagnosis 'Awesome,' Gets Placed On Leave

A Wisconsin public school teacher was reportedly placed on leave this week after he allegedly called Rush Limbaugh's advanced cancer diagnosis "awesome" and said he hopes the radio host's death is painful.

"limbaugh absolutely should have to suffer from cancer. it's awesome that he's dying, and hopefully it is as quick as it is painful,” Travis Sarandos, who teaches in Milwaukee, allegedly tweeted Monday, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Sarandos was replying to another tweet whose author said they hoped Limbaugh recovered quickly and would advocate for affordable health care for everyone, the newspaper reported.

The teacher's tweet sparked a backlash after local radio host Mark Belling posted it on his blog Tuesday.

Milwaukee Public Schools first said Sarandos did not speak for the district but later confirmed he had been placed on leave.

Limbaugh announced on his radio show Monday that he has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer.

On Tuesday night, President Trump awarded Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, during the State of the Union address at the U.S. Capitol.

Limbaugh returned to his show Friday after missing three shows for treatments. He said those supporting him since disclosing his diagnosis have made him feel like "one of the luckiest people alive."

The Demonicrats support the murder of preborn children, even atthe point where they are being born. It’s not surprising the Demonicrats (including school teachers) wish death on those who oppose their wickedness.

Many Demonicrats support a Communist presidential candidate whose campaign staff have echoed his desire to put opponents in gulags, if he becomes president.

Are demonrats accepting donations and endorsements from Milwaukee Pubic Schools and their union?

Force all the demonrats running for office to say if they support pubic school teachers that wish cancer on anyone?

Should a Pubic School teacher that wishes cancer on Rush be teaching our kids?

In many of Mike Gloomberg’s ubiquitous TV ads, they close with him hunkered down beside a little girl of maybe 9 or 10 years old, as though conversing with her, with his patented smirk on his face. Little does that child realize, that if Mike had HIS way, she would not be alive; but would have been aborted in the womb. It’s one of his platform planks.

There is hate on both sides and it needs to stop.

Of course, both sides are the same.

Thank you. What you post is absolutely right. It is honorable to deeply crave justice and righteousness. Those who hate freely and are praised for it have a lot to answer for. But wishing harm on them isn’t right. For myself, especially when dealing with liberal hatred, I have to keep reminding myself that God is in control. He is the ultimate judge who knows all our hearts.

This idea, that people with opposing political viewpoints need to be killed, is going mainstream on the left. I dont just see it in stories like this—I hear it directly from leftist coworkers and acquaintances.

So true, “Paid Vacation” for “punishment”.

I think this is why there are two Americas.

Fantasy and Reality.

They get paid for “wrong doings” where we get terminated.

I am sure the minions are rewarded for their “good deeds”.

It is sad because they have likely sealed their own fate. They likely will be afflicted with the disease that they wish upon others..Just like Pharoah. Measure for measure.

What has inspired such hate? How can the nation survive if this is not stopped?
