Vance Gushes Over Homocon Fake News Site [Video]

Mediaite reports:

Vice President JD Vance praised The Gateway Pundit, a far-right fake news site, in an interview with founder and editor Jim Hoft published on Sunday. Vance’s adulatory comments came after Hoft said that he had “heard some news” about Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), Vance’s Democratic counterpart in the 2024 election.

“The FBI and DHS was covering for him and his ties to Communist China,” stated Hoft before asking Vance, “Do you think they would have done this for you?” Vance replied, “No, they certainly would not have. So this is why Gateway Pundit is so important, because you guys report on this stuff, and uncover some of this stuff, and I read about it on your website.”

The Gateway Pundit has weathered a number of defamation lawsuits for false claims it has amplified. In 2020, it was a leading propagator of conspiracy theories pertaining to the presidential election that year.
