Five Years Ago Today, Joe Biden Spread Jussie Smollett Race Hoax

It difficult to believe the POTUS and his First could be so wrong:
“What happened today to [Jussie Smollett] must never be tolerated in this country,” Biden wrote on Twitter, now known as X. “We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts.”
"Another post from Vice President Kamala Harris also remains online.

“[Jussie Smollett] is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know,” then-California Senator Harris said. “This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.”".
