Nurse who made shock comments about Trump shooting is 'no longer employed' - as wave of investigations are launched
A nurse who implied she was disappointed that Donald Trump wasn't assassinated is 'no longer an employee' at the taxpayer-funded New York City hospital where she worked.
Janiece Binns, who works at New York Presbyterian, a medical center used by Columbia and Cornell universities, said in an online post just hours after the attack occurred: 'Like, bro. Work on your skills.'
Binns, who is pictured on social media wearing an LGBT face mask and has shared pro-Palestine content, shared a post on her Instagram Story that called Trump's would-be assassin 'the most hated c*** on the planet' for missing.
A spokesman for New York Presbyterian told DailyMail.com that Binns was now no longer employed by the hospital and her employment had been 'terminated'.
Earlier today, she was suspended. Her comments sparked a furious backlash online by people who said it violated healthcare workers' oath to 'do no harm'.
It comes as several college staff, healthcare workers and other professionals are investigated over similar comments mocking Trump or endorsing the shooting.

A spokesperson for New York Presbyterian told this website: 'This individual is no longer an employee.
'Our values are centered around respect and caring for all of our patients, colleagues and communities.
'Words, images or actions that advocate, celebrate or amplify violence are in violation of our policies, and will not be tolerated.'
They added that her employment had been 'terminated'.
Her comments had sparked a furious backlash online against the hospital, with many demanding she be removed from her post.
One user said: 'Imagine receiving care from a woman who wishes you were dead if you vote differently than she does. That blows my mind after working with so many great nurses.'
And a second said: 'Can you imagine what she would do to a patient if she found out they were a Trump supporter? She should not be in a position to care for people when a human life means so little to her. Do better.'
Nurses are required to be impartial in their profession and to treat all patients equally.
The American Nurses Association, which upholds standards for the profession, says online as part of their ethical code: 'Justice in nursing relates to impartiality regarding a patient's age, ethnicity, economic status, religion, or sexual orientation.'

O'Donoghue deleted his social media accounts following the comments online
Anthony D'Esposito, Republican congressman for New York's Fourth congressional district on Long Island, said: 'Promoting violence in the aftermath of the assassination attempt against President Trump is horrific.
'We must send a clear message that this will not be tolerated, especially from those employed in the healthcare field who take an oath to aid and support all people.'
New York Presbyterian is one of the biggest hospital systems in New York City, with 2,600 beds and treating an estimated 300,000 patients every year.
It also has a midwife unit, which delivers an estimated 15,000 babies every year.
Binns shared her comments on Instagram, which were then re-shared online by Libs of TikTok with her employer tagged in them — sparking immediate backlash.
She has since deactivated her social media accounts and could not be reached by DailyMail.com for comment.
In another case, a community manager in Pennsylvania has been suspended after also saying he was disappointed that the Trump shooter missed.
Rick Notari, who works for a county in Pennsylvania, said it was a shame the Trump shooter missed. He has now been suspended by his employer

Rick Notari works for Lackawanna County — which covers Scranton — in the state, and wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that it was 'a shame the guy missed'.
Announcing his suspension, local commissioner Bill Gaughan said: 'Political violence is unacceptable and must be condemned.
'The attempt on President Trump's life is a tragedy for the country, and we join President Biden and millions of other Americans in wishing President Trump a speedy and full recovery.'
Notari has protected his posts on X and deleted his LinkedIn account.
A lab assistant at a hospital in central Illinois is also being investigated after posting online in the hours after the shooting: 'It's a shame they missed.'
Ryne Arnett made the comments online — but later shared a second post claiming he had been hacked. He has now deactivated his Instagram account.
He works at OSF HealthCare — which has 16 hospitals and 2,100 beds in the state.
A spokeswoman for the hospital said: 'We're aware of a statement that was shared on the social media account of an individual employed by OSF HealthCare. An investigation is underway.
'We condemn any words or actions that seek to marginalize or harm others. this includes online activity. It is our priority to make sure every Mission Partner, patient and family is met with an environment of safety, justice and equality.'
In another case, Thomas O'Donoghue, who works at Lee Health in south-west Florida, posted on X after the shooting saying: 'It's a shame he missed'.
It was in response to a post from Donald Trump Jr., who posted a clip from CNN calling the news provider a disgrace.
O'Donoghue — who is a respiratory therapist, or someone who helps people to breathe — faced immediate backlash for the comments.
One individual wrote online in response: 'He's in a position to determine whether people live or die and that makes me very, very angry that he's this willing to air this view.'
O'Donoghue has since deleted his social media accounts. DailyMail.com has contacted Lee Health for comment.
