A Bok Academy (Lake Wales, Fla.) substitute teacher who was caught on video telling students Antifa was responsible for the U.S. Capitol riots has been fired.
In a viral video shot by a middle school student at the academy, the unnamed teacher's said three members of Antifa were paid actors that stormed the grounds of the Capitol and were primarily responsible for the violent acts. She then claimed these same members were zeroed in on because of "facial recognition."
The student recording the video can be heard challenging the woman's falsehoods to which she responded by saying,"When they're paid to be there and cause a riot they wanna make it look like Trump supporters so they wear Trump hats and carry Trump flags."
Dr. Damien Moses, the principal at Bok Academy, told TMZ, "The teacher's conduct was immediately dealt with following the incident from earlier this week." Moses went to say that he and other school officials met with the teacher and dismissed her from the Lake Wales Charter School System.FBI investigators ruled out Antifa playing a role in last Wednesday's insurrection in Washington, D.C. that left five people dead.
Here's how the situation between the student and the sub went down.
