On November 5, 2024, following the victory of President-elect Donald Trump, an Idaho teacher at Century High School, Lori Dixon Lombard, allegedly made hateful comments on Facebook towards a local man. These comments have sparked an investigation by the Pocatello-Chubbuck School District, where Dixon Lombard is employed as a career and technical education teacher.
In screenshots shared by Fox News, the teacher is seen targeting the man and venting her frustration over Trump’s success in the state of Idaho. According to the Idaho State Journal, Dixon Lombard wrote, “I hope your mistress or daughter have an unwanted pregnancy, wait, I looked at your picture, you don’t have a mistress… And probably never got anyone to have a daughter by you unless it was by force.”
She continued on with her purported comments, allegedly adding, “Seriously… cover your profile picture. You are pathetic looking and are opening yourself to ridicule. Everyone will know you can’t get a woman and don’t have children unless you forced yourself on some poor woman.”
The Pocatello-Chubbuck School District has released a statement addressing the alleged remarks made by Dixon Lombard. They state that the comments have been forwarded to district and school administration authorities for review. However, due to this being a personnel matter, the district is limited in what they can share publicly.
The district also highlights the importance of open communication, mutual respect, and a positive environment for all. They state that while it is important to balance individual free speech with the responsibilities of educators as role models, it is crucial to focus on the curriculum in the classroom and school setting, not personal or political views.
While the district did not confirm whether Dixon Lombard’s alleged comments violated any policies, the Idaho State Journal states that “inappropriate posting on social media” is grounds for discipline under the district’s guidelines. The district’s policy also states that school employees are allowed to speak out as citizens on matters of public concern, but they must also ensure that their speech does not disrupt the workplace or violate privacy limitations.
UPDATE: the district put out a statement that they are aware of this teacher’s posts and are “reviewing” this matter. https://t.co/I45eovVuhZ pic.twitter.com/erO4Rn2fsU

In light of this ongoing investigation, the district reminds everyone to be mindful of their speech and actions, especially when it comes to social media. Teachers, as role models for students, have a responsibility to create a positive and respectful environment. Inappropriate comments and behavior have no place in the classroom or school setting.
I’m glad this hag will not be teaching my kids. The sad part is the socialist have crept into our school systems even in the most conservative areas. There is one high school history teacher in our area that is as woke as this idiot and I have already stated that she WILL NOT be “teaching” my son when he moves up next year. Our educational system is filled with these socialist morons who are like termites eating away at your child’s free thinking.
Agree completely except I would use the term “cancer” rather than termites…
Yeah! It is insulting to the termites
I certainly would not want someone with such a nasty disposition teaching or even being near my children. Teacher or not this is not a good example. If any of my children were in her class, I would immediately get them out and away from her. Children these days are constantly being bombarded with smut, lies, and vulgarity. Teachers have an obligation to those to whom they teach to put forth good standards as examples.
I would not even want this horrible, leftist hag working in the kitchen cafeteria…..preparing food Children ingest for sustinenence . Her nasty , vicious demeanor dictates she should have an isolated job….perhaps on the floor of a quarry.
I am a retired teacher and cannot understand this teacher’s statement. AS a HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER SHE KNOWS HER STUDENT WILL READ THIS. What if the man she talked about does have a daughter , students are mean to each other. I can see reactions of students that admire her. I taught in UTAH many years ago and cannot see the people of Utah supporting her.
Hate removes one’s ability to logic or reason.
Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder, and this was definitely on display with this liberal whack-job. She needs to be institutionalized in a secure mental facility for a “long rest”. before she does something rash to herself or others.
Hurtful words! Good thing us boys aren’t all that sensitive.
This is what good people are up against. She is indoctrinating our children. She should be fired.
And this isn’t Hate Speech? Where are the social media monitors and Fact Checkers now?
Taught High School and Middle School Social Studies and would never interject mu political beliefs into ANY lesson. I would not interject my opinion on any event or that happened in history.
Thanks for the comment K, that’s how a teacher should teach! Present the facts and let young minds develop their own critical thinking abilities and their own opinions. Thanks for following us!
