Payal Modi, who teaches art at W. H. Adamson High School in Dallas, Texas, is under investigation by the school district after an eight-second video (above) appeared on Instagram

The video was reportedly posted on Modi's personal Instagram account on the day of Trump's inauguration, the Washington Times reported.
The caption stated: 'Watching the #inauguration in my classroom like…. #no #stop #denial #squirtgun #hypocrisy #powerless.'
It is unclear whether whether the voices heard in the background were that of her students.
Modi soon drew the attention of critics - and despite changing her Instagram account to private before deleting it entirely, the video continued to circulate on YouTube.

People also rallied against her on social media and circulated the school district's phone number to encourage people to lodge complaints against her.
The Dallas Independent School District placed Modi on administrative leave and issued a statement that said: 'Today, we were made aware of a social media posting being circulated involving a teacher at W. H. Adamson High School.
'The teacher has been placed on administrative leave and the district has opened an investigation. This is a personnel matter and, as such, we cannot comment.'
Public records show Modi was hired by the school district in August 2014.

AWHH...Paid Administrative Leave. Worst punishment ever. Second only to suspending a student for a week for skipping school.

If the image was of Obama she would have been arrested for attempted murder.
