‘Tell The World I Also Had Asthma,’ Conservative Begs Doctor Before Dying Of Coronavirus
JACKSON, TN—Insisting through coughs that he refused to let the physician politicize his death, local conservative man Paul Welles reportedly begged his doctor Friday to “tell the world I also had asthma” before dying of coronavirus. "Tell everyone who will listen that it wasn’t coronavirus that killed me—it was asthma, and high cholesterol, and blood pressure!" the dying Trump supporter reportedly told the hospital staff between gasps for breath, demanding that they write down his cause of death as heart failure or respiratory issues. "I refuse to die from coronavirus. Tell them that I didn’t take my health seriously, I smoked for nearly 20 years, and I didn’t eat a very healthy diet. Any of those things is bound to be more responsible for my death than the coronavirus. I refuse to be a statistic. Promise me... promise that you’ll tell everyone it was a pre-existing condition and coronavirus had nothing to do with it. Tell them I was statistically more likely to get hit by a bus." At press time, the conservative man’s dying words were reportedly "I am old."

Funded by / Ownership
The Gateway Pundit is owned by Jim Hoft and funded primarily through online advertising.
Analysis / Bias
In review, The Gateway Pundit demonstrates extreme right wing bias in story selection that always favors the right and denigrates the left. There is significant use of loaded emotional language in headlines such as this: President Trump RIPS INTO Peter Strzok After He’s Fired – Calls For Hillary ‘Sham Investigation’ to be ‘Properly Redone’. The Gateway Pundit is also fiercely dedicated to the promotion of Donald Trump. TGP always sources their information, but sometimes utilizes questionable sources such as Breitbart and Mike Cernovich, who both a have terrible track records with fact checkers.
The Gateway Pundit has published numerous false or conspiracy stories such as Hillary Clinton having a seizure, identifying an innocent person in the Las Vegas mass shooting and again identifying the wrong person after the motor vehicle homicide at the White Supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Further, TGP claimed the “FBI received tips well in advance of the Florida school shooting and decided, for whatever reason, not to act.” Finally, based on publishing false information, TGP has faced lawsuits for defamation and damages to innocent individuals.
A factual search reveals several failed fact checks by IFCN fact checkers. Here are a select few out of dozens.
- Anti-Trump Protesters Bused Into Austin, Chicago – FALSE
- Did a Woman Say the Washington Post Offered Her $1,000 to Accuse Roy Moore of Sexual Abuse? – FALSE
- ‘Spooked’ Clinton Campaign Manager Deleted Tweets – FALSE
- Fake news posts blame Puerto Rico’s truck drivers for refusing to ship relief supplies – PANTS ON FIRE
- Did the World Health Organization’s director-general overstate the COVID-19 fatality rate when he said that it was many times that of the seasonal flu? – FALSE

new cases reported - 44,507

**********************************************
new cases reported - 570
new virus related deaths - 6
Canada (revised - multiplied by 8.7)

new cases reported - 4,959

************************************************** **********************************************
Given that the United States has 8.7 times the population of Canada with which it shares 5,250 miles of international border, the revised numbers allow for direct comparison!
Both the United States and Canada are limited to masks, social distancing and disinfectants in their respective medical toolboxes - so what are the reasons that would explain the discrepancy in new daily cases (44,507 v 4,959) and new daily deaths (1,084 v 54.2) - using revised figures to allow for direct comparisons?
1 universal healthcare
2 leadership - consistent messaging
3 public concern for the welfare of others
4 the "politicization" of COVID-19

Even CPAC didn't want Hoft...
In February 2018, Hoft was scheduled to participate in a Conservative Political Action Conference panel titled "Social Media Censorship." After CPAC preemptively removed him from the discussion on censorship following Hoft's coverage of the recent Florida mass shooting, he stated that CPAC was in effect engaging in its own form of censorship

What an absolute dipstick. Wearing a mask is not some hardship and pretending that this virus is a "scam" is the height of conspiracy nuttiness.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is coming to you from a moron who freely admits to driving while drunk and moans like a snowflake as to how he shouldn't be prosecuted or punished for the crime of driving under the influence unless he actually hits someone. He doesn't understand the basic logic of why it's a crime in the first place. Being intoxicated impairs judgement and slows reaction times, hence it being a criminal offence to be driving something as potentially lethal as a car in such a state.
Likewise, he fails to appreciate the precautions of wearing a mask.

Oh wow. You do realize that the conspiracy theories that are being perpetuated on here are roundly mocked around the world or regarded with utter bemusement, right?
Q-Anon is ridiculous by way of.

I pass a highway marquee every day - since February it's had Kung Flu related messages - "Flatten The Curve!" "Social Distancing!" "Wear Your Mask!"
I noticed today that it's back to it's old programming - weather alerts, road conditions, PSA's
Must be the marquee programmers got tired of pretending there was a "pandemic" too :idunno:

Yes
How does "Jefferson" explain today's release of Bob Woodward's book "Rage," and the audio tapes from the 18 interviews that clearly establish that this President knew COVID-19 represented a major threat to the nation - but was willing to play "Russian Roulette" with their lives by deliberately misrepresenting its significance?
In this President's own words, what he was saying in private to Woodward totally contradicts the version he was telling the American public - that COVID-19 was more of a nuisance than a threat, comparing it to the flu!,
