Lately Donald Trump has been hammering on Kamala Harris' past support for helping out violent rioters and others with either avoiding bail or raising money so they can post bail:

Byron York (@ByronYork) ~ Donald Trump, on tough prosecutor Kamala Harris: 'She wants no bail ... if you murder someone, just go home and relax.'

Minneapolis CBS Affiliate WCCO did one of the notorious "fact-checks" that we've gotten used to, and found Trump's accusation specifically about the Minnesota Freedom Fund to be a false claim:

Readers added context:
The accusation is not false. Kamala has promoted MFF in the past and her X post supporting it is still active (for now):

First of all, people who have followed this kind of thing closely remember when Kamala Harris backed that particular fund to bail out rioters in Minnesota back in 2020:

Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) ~ If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota.

And this plea for funds directly by Kamala Harris is STILL UP on the ActBlue website. 

And secondly, as RNC Research pointed out, the same news outlet that said Trump falsely accused Trump of involvement with that bail fund seems to have contradicted their new fact-check in a previous interview with the person who is now the presumptive Democrat nominee:

RNC Research (@RNCResearch) ~ You clowns literally asked her about it ...

Do some of these media outlets ever actually pay attention to what's on their own stations, or do they just not care?

Mary Drabik (@Drabes7) ~ We’re witnessing gaslighting from the media like never before. If it weren’t for recordings, screenshots, and work like this, the media would get away with it.
