Now if one is a conspiracy theorist like the disgraced moron Alex Jones, or
QAnon, then Joe Hoft from The Gateway Pundit fits right in.
Hoft is the radical right-winger who supposedly was the "first to expose the
Covid-19 HOAX!" Yes, they mean HOAX! I can give you about 177,000

their cult-followers to believe. Many drink that kool-aid even if they happen
to support our veterans...

theorists, major right-wing media figures Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity
have in recent weeks cited them in pushing false coronavirus claims.
In a scathing review of their suspect/dubious claims came this article
