Fox News and others falsely claim conservative meeting at "Mount Vernon Estate"

Estate . . .

FOXNews - Ken Klukowski - .18 hours ago.
Their declaration was unveiled on February 17 at George Washington's Mount
Vernon estate.

I looked deeper and found out the real location of the meeting was the
Collingwood Library and Museum of Americanism, a private, not-for-profit
corporation located a few miles from Mount Vernon Estate, on property once
owned by George Washington, but not presently associated with Mount Vernon
Estate at all.
Several related video links are shown, and if you click on some of them you
find a George-Washington-costumed character, which to me shows they
deliberately intended to misrepresent their actual location as Mount Vernon
itself, and thereby add legitimacy to their harmful right-wing agenda.
Thought you should know right away, as soon as I noticed it.
Yours,
Rev. Bill McGinnis, Director
