  • A Democratic staffer resigned after making inflammatory posts following the assassination attempt on President Trump.
  • The Mississippi Republican Party called for her removal from office after she wrote, “Don’t miss me next time.”
  • According to local reports, Jacqueline Marseau apologized and was visited by Secret Service agents.

A woman who worked for Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson has resigned from his post after posting inflammatory messages on social media in the wake of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, according to multiple reports.

Jacqueline Marseau, a caseworker and manager at Thompson’s field office in Natchez, Mississippi, posted on Facebook shortly after the gunman attempted to assassinate the former president.

A bullet grazed Trump’s ear at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, leaving one other rally-goer dead and two others seriously injured.

“I do not condone violence but please take shooting lessons so you don’t screw up next time. Oh that’s not what I was saying,” Marceau’s post read, according to screenshots saved by local media outlet the Clarion Ledger.

The post drew immediate criticism, with the Mississippi Republican Party’s X account calling it “despicable” and calling for Marsaw to be fired.

The post was removed about an hour after it was published, according to the Clarion Ledger.

“I was made aware of the posting by a staff member who is no longer under my employment,” Thompson said in a statement, according to Fox News.

After Saturday’s shooting, Tompon posted on X, “There is no place for political violence in American democracy.”

Still, Mississippi’s state auditor, Republican Shad White, told the Clarion-Ledger that Thompson had hired a “wacky staff” and called for his resignation. Thompson sponsored a bill that would deny Secret Service protection to Trump, who is a felon.

“The moment was overwhelming,” Marsaw told the Natchez Democrat, adding, “I’m a staunch Democrat.”

The posts were meant as a joke, she said.

Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten told the outlet that Secret Service agents contacted local police and interviewed Marsaw on Sunday morning and visited him at his home.

“She is extremely remorseful and told investigators her actions were unjust and unreasonable,” he said, adding that “she continued to apologise throughout the 45-minute interview.”

Patten told the Natchez Democrat that Marsaw’s case has been turned over to the attorney general, who will consider whether to file charges.

He said Marceau’s posts may have violated U.S. Code 879, which bans making threats against former presidents, a crime punishable by up to five years in prison.

Neither Marceau nor Thompson’s offices immediately responded to Business Insider’s requests for comment sent outside business hours.
