Nov 10, 2016 ~ Washington Post, 'Louisiana student 'fabricated' story of hijab attack, police say'. She 'admitted that she fabricated the story about her physical attack as well as the removal of her hijab and wallet by two white males.' One of the alleged fake attackers was wearing a Trump hat [Fake News, Fake Hate Crime, Fake Islamophobia]
Nov 10, 2016 ~ Shaun King posts picture claiming two 'White students @ Southern Illinois University decided to put on blackface... to celebrate Trump'. The story was false. The students were doing a 'boscia face mask' skin treatment and were showing it off. Had 0 to do with blackface or Trump. [Fake News, Fake Hate Crime, Fake Racism]
Nov 10, 2016 ~ A University of Minnesota student Kathy Tu claimed she was "stopped in my tracks by a white male, who yelled at me to 'Go back to Asia.'".

Nov 10, 2016 ~ Frederick Roeber flew a Nazi flag over his house in San Fran. The narrative was that Nazis are now free to fly their flags after Trump has been elected. However Roeber is anti-Trump and was trying to make a statement that Nazi's had won. Which is false of course. [Fake News, Fake Hate Crime, Fake Anti-Semitism, Holocaust Denial]
Nov 9, 2016 ~ Sodhivine posts on Twitter, 'My friend got attacked by trump supporters in Santa Monica yesterday. They smashed him in the head with a beer bottle because he's gay.'

Nov 9, 2016 ~ Hate Crime Hoaxes starting to appear in order to smear Trump voters. Sarah Harvard, 'Not even 24 hours yet. My friend's sister, who is Muslim, had a knife pulled on her by a Trump supporter while on the bus by UIUC campus'. Nope, never happened. [Fake News, Fake Hate Crime]
