Couldn’t Happen to a Nicer Bunch of Assholes…

Well damn that’s um… sad, or something:
The founder of the Gateway Pundit, the infamous conspiracy theory site, announced on Wednesday that the company had declared bankruptcy.
Jim Hoft published a message on the website that read, “TGP Communications, the parent company of The Gateway Pundit, recently made the decision to seek protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Southern District of Florida as a result of the progressive liberal lawfare attacks against our media outlet.”
Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Shaye Moss, sued the Gateway Pundit in December of 2021, alleging that Jim and Joe Hoft, twin brothers, behind the conspiracy theory site engaged in “a campaign of lies” that “instigated a deluge of intimidation, harassment, and threats that has forced them to change their phone numbers, delete their online accounts, and fear for their physical safety.”
Worst People in the World Mildly Inconvenienced for Being Horrible was an alternative headline for this post. The Hofts have been nasty pieces of work since they crawled into the blogosphere from the primordial muck, and while it’s hardly the first time the site has found itself in legal trouble, it appears that the joyride has hit a few bumps.
Thanks to alert reader CM for the hot tip!
