Actress Pam Grier found herself in hot water after making outrageous and historically false claims about witnessing racial lynchings as a child in Columbus, Ohio during her appearance on ABC's "The View" - and Patriots online weren't having any of it.

The blaxploitation film star, best known for movies like "Foxy Brown," told co-host Sunny Hostin that she remembered seeing lynchings while growing up in Ohio. There's just one problem: her story doesn't add up with basic math or historical records.

"At least make up a story that's halfway believable," one social media user fired back at Grier's nonsensical claims.

When Hostin asked about facing racism in Columbus, Grier launched into her dubious tale. But sharp-eyed Americans quickly did what "The View" hosts refused to do - fact-check her story. Historical records show that public lynchings had essentially ended in Ohio decades before Grier's childhood, making her claims mathematically and historically impossible.

What's even more infuriating? Not a single co-host on "The View" bothered to question Grier's inflammatory story. Instead, they let her spread what appears to be complete fiction to millions of viewers without any pushback whatsoever.

Another Day, Another Lie on Liberal TV

This is exactly what we've come to expect from the mainstream media - allowing guests to spew divisive, unverified claims as long as they fit the approved narrative. "The View" has become nothing more than a platform for spreading anti-American propaganda disguised as daytime television.

Americans on social media weren't fooled for a second, with users across platforms calling out Grier's story as fabricated nonsense designed to stoke racial tensions. Many pointed out that if such horrific events had actually occurred in Ohio during the timeframe she claims, there would be extensive documentation and media coverage.

Once again, we see how the liberal media machine operates: amplify any story that paints America as irredeemably racist, regardless of whether it's actually true. Meanwhile, they wonder why fewer Americans trust traditional media sources every single day.

The View has become nothing but a propaganda machine at this point. How are they still on the air?

Does anyone have links to the actual statistics she was supposedly citing? I'd love to see what she was basing these wild claims on because I seriously doubt they exist.

I looked everywhere and couldn't find anything to support what she said. Pure fiction.

Absolutely disgraceful behavior from Pam Grier. Ohio deserves an apology.

As someone who actually lives in Ohio, I can tell you these claims are completely fabricated. The media loves to paint our state in the worst possible light.

Good for social media users for calling this out immediately! We can't let celebrities spread lies just because they have a platform.

Twitter fact-checkers were all over this within hours. Even they couldn't ignore how false it was.

This is exactly why nobody trusts mainstream media anymore.

I grew up in rural Ohio and this kind of inflammatory rhetoric is dangerous and divisive. She's creating problems where none exist and dividing communities that have been living peacefully together for decades.

Finally someone calls out The View for their constant lies and misinformation! Pam Grier should have done her research before making such serious accusations.

Exactly! They never fact-check when it fits their narrative but demand sources for everything else.
