On the Fourth of July, Sen. Josh Hawley tweeted a quote he attributed to Patrick Henry. The quote argues that America "was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians." But it didn't come from Henry — it comes from a segregationist newspaper in Virginia in 1956. It came from a 1956 article in "The Virginian," a since-shuttered segregationist newspaper. "The above quotation from the will of Patrick Henry is a notable example."
