Harris Campaign Gets Fact-Checked Over Biggest Media Hoax Of All Time

It’s the media lie that just won’t die: the “very fine people” hoax in Charlottesville seven long years ago.

Democrats and the media ran with this lie for years. It was one of the first major narratives to paint the new Trump administration as irredeemably racist, poisoning the Donald Trump brand for moderates and justifying hysterical, often lawless, resistance from the left.

When the regime fact-checker Snopes finally debunked it in June 2024, it seemed like the hoax had finally died. But then the Kamala Harris campaign scurrilously resurrected it Monday with a backhanded tweet.
