A false quote attributed to George Washington, concerning governing without God and the Bible, has been widely shared online. The claim originated from a post by Holguín and quickly circulated. However, Mount Vernon, Washington’s historic estate, has officially classified the quote as apocryphal, meaning it has no reliable historical basis. This indicates the quote is fabricated and not a genuine statement made by the first U.S. President. The report, originally published by La Silla Vacía, highlights the spread of misinformation. It underscores the importance of verifying information, especially historical claims, before sharing them. The incident serves as a reminder to rely on reputable sources for historical accuracy.
