About The Gateway Pundit

The Gateway Pundit was originally founded in 2004 as TheGatewayPundit/blogspot.com by Jim Hoft who is the Editor of TGP. At the time the site primarily wrote brief introductions and linked to other content producers serving as a hub for important current events in the political and media sphere. The site was established for readers tired of limited options and a politicized establishment media. The first readers included Joe, Jim’s twin brother, Midwest Engineer and Jim’s mother … and it grew from there.

In 2011, the website moved to its current location as www.thegatewaypundit.com. TGP’s audience grew rapidly and added additional writers to the staff. Today over 2.5 million unique readers every day visit TGP. The Gateway Pundit is ranked as one of the top 100 websites in America, based on Semrush rankings.
