The far-right news site The Gateway Pundit responded to claims of “bankruptcy abuse” during a hearing this Thursday, over a week after confessing he used the company’s finances for personal expenses.

In April, Jim Hoft, the founder of the media site, announced that his company had filed for bankruptcy after facing many lawsuits about false claims it made about the 2020 presidential election.

The Gateway Pundit has endured litigation by election workers and other people who faced harassment after the site made false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

In a bankruptcy filing, the company said it had between $100,000 and $500,000 in liabilities.

It also said it had between $500,000 and $1 million in assets, later revised to $2.3 million.

A bankruptcy judge in Florida will consider a request from creditors – three people suing the site for defamation – mother-and-daughter Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and former Dominion Voting Systems employee Eric Coomer.
