I am deeply touched and honored by Jim Hoft’s eloquent and impassioned tribute. And of course, so very much of what he says about me here applies to him as well. Jim unwittingly became the flashpoint of my imbroglio with CPAC last week. After leftists such as Chelsea Clinton, Paul Krugman and others started going after Jim and his Gateway Pundit site for noting, as so many others did, that the Florida pro-gun control students appeared coached, CPAC demanded I drop him from the panel I had conceptualized and for which I had gathered speakers.
There was never any question that I would do that, and not just because Gateway was staking out a perfectly reasonable position vis-a-vis the Florida students, but also because it is essential that conservatives stop jumping to do the bidding of the left, and start defending their own, the way the left does. Instead, of course, CPAC stole the panel I had originated and presented it as their own. It was a revealing incident in numerous ways. In moments of crisis, large and small, you see what people are made of, and I saw this past week what many, many people were made of. It was usually not a pretty sight. But I saw also what Jim Hoft is made of. Jim Hoft is a man of integrity and honor. I am proud to stand with him.
“In Defense of Pamela Geller from Terry Schilling and CPAC Liars Who Steal Her Work and Accuse Trump Supporters of Being Nazis Behind Closed Doors,” by Jim Hoft, Gateway Pundit, February 23, 2018:
Pamela Geller is courageous American woman of integrity.
She is despised and smeared by the left and the Republican establishment.They don’t like Pamela Geller’s reporting or tactics.
When Pamela Geller reported on the Christian church bombing by Islamists in Egypt it was because Islamists in Egypt just blew up a church.
When Pamela Geller reported on a Christmas market attack in Germany by an Islamist extremist it was because an Islamist extremist just mowed people down in a truck at a Christmas Market in Germany.
When Pamela Geller reported on English schools banning ‘The Three Little Pigs’ booklets, it was because ‘The Three Little Pigs’ was banned in English schools who feared the disapproval of Muslims.Pamela Geller reports the truth.
And liberals and GOP elites don’t like this.Pamela is blocked by CPAC elites because she is described as a “fringe” activist.This year Pamela Geller tried once again to sponsor a panel at CPAC.
I know for a fact that CPAC does not want Pamela at their conference.On Monday night CPAC officials finally agreed to allow Pamela Geller to hold a break-out session.
But they announced after the agenda was already published.
They were embarrassed.Pamela not only organized the most talked about panel at CPAC but the most important panel.
Tech giants are taking away our freedoms and stifling conservative voices.
Pamela organized the this extremely important session with the following leaders:
Pamela Geller, Editor and Publisher, Geller Report, President, American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) and author of Fatwa: Hunted in America
James Damore, Google whistleblower
Harmeet K. Dhillon, renowned free speech attorney
Dan Gainor, Vice President for Business and Culture, Media Research Center
Jim Hoft, Editor-in-Chief, Gateway Pundit
James O’Keefe, Project Veritas
Marlene Jaeckel, Tech Entrepreneur
Pamela put this panel together — NOT CPAC.
CPAC was embarrassed.
CPAC does not know anything about this issue and CPAC does not care about this issue.Then on Tuesday CPAC kicked me (Jim Hoft) off the panel because of an article by TGP’s Lucian Wintrich that upset the elites.
Lucian correctly pointed out that one of the student anti-gun, anti-Trump activist leaders in Parkland, Florida has a father in the FBI and that there was video of him that “appeared” to show him being coached.The entire liberal media and Chelsea Clinton thought this was an outrageous attack. They haven’t yet explained why.
After The Gateway Pundit took direct fire for 24 hours most of the country agreed with us and CPAC kicked me off the panel.
I also know from sources that the CPAC board believes The Gateway Pundit is a pro-Nazi website. They also believe that our millions of readers feed off of Nazi shit.
This is how the elites see Trump supporters to this day.
CPAC has yet to put a leading pro-Trump activist on their stage. Instead they invite the same people who viciously attacked Trump during the election to speak year after year. And in their back rooms they mock Trump supporters as racists and Nazis. These are not good people.
Pamela withdrew from the panel. She made a decision based on principle. She stood by the Gateway Pundit family.
Terry Schilling, a CPAC Board member, went on with the panel. He pretended he had something to do with the panel. He stole Pamela’s work and pretended it was his own.
The panel was held today at CPAC.
There was no one there to thank Pamela Geller for her efforts.
And so today I want to thank Pam.It is good to have a wonderful friendship with such a principled person.
Pamela Geller is an American treasure.
She is smeared by the left, the GOP elites and the Islamists.
Last month she had to testify at a trial of an ISIS supporter who traveled to New York to behead her.
Police caught the Islamist before he killed Pamela.I am proud for our reporting at The Gateway Pundit.
We come under fire from all directions. A WaPo writer contacted me today about a story we put up for 7 minutes at 4:30 in the morning on October 1, 2017.
The left uses this mistake to this day to smear us. We are under constant assault.Some times you have hard weeks but our mission continues. To bring you the truth.
I am glad Pamela is on our side.
Pamela Geller is a woman of integrity and tremendous courage.

CPAC is run by saudi funded pro-jihadi scum
As long as the Longest running Lie “Islam has nothing to with terrorism/jihad” continue the infiltration and stealth subversion will continue.
Its upto every patriot who wants to defend their country by sharing info like this http://bit.ly/2rF8pfo
Not sure who actually funds CPAC, but one guy who has forced his way into “conservative” circles is Grover Norquist, who loves Muslims, is even married to one, is speculated to have become a Muslim, himself, loves open borders and embraces other issues that aren’t really conservative. It amazes me that Norquist has made a career out of nothing more than saying he doesn’t like high taxes. That’s all it took to for Norquist to become some kind of Republican super hero.
Don’t be fooled. The only reason the left loves open borders is to erase Christianity, replace legal Americans and drum roll have anarchy to CHANGE OUR COUNTRY. That is the end game.
They hate our Constitution, Bill of Rights, freedoms and want to REPLACE that with Communism – SJW – Social Justice Warriors are the immature front lines for this. What they are under estimating is the viciousness of Islam. They want the prize too! So it will come down to either ISLAM or Communism dominating if we don’t wise up and stop this. At the moment, the left is working together but eventually they will be fighting amongst themselves for the prize.
True. The lefties will be in for quite a surprise when they see that their Muslim friends are really about! But there are plenty republicans who want the open borders also although for different reasons.
Thank you, Mr. Hoft, and thank you Ms. Geller.
Ms. Geller’s website was the first counter-jihadi website I visited and I’ve never left!
Thank you Ms. Geller for the bravery to continue to speak/write the truth in a world full of islamic liars.
Thank you both for doing all the heavy lifting and bringing us the truth each day!
Thank you to these 2 heroes!
Thank you Pamela and thank you Jim keep printing and talking. May I also say Thank you Milo for printing of and letting Pamela speak through words and print.
C-PAC’s loss. Hearing Pamela Geller speak is a real treat, Jim Hoft or not. Why do certain people get targets on their backs? Why do certain “conservatives” even target people’s backs? Good on Pam for not selling out her peeps or her principles!
Yes, thanks so much to both Jim Holt and Pamela Geller. How fortunate we are as a country and as freedom lovers to have these two standing tall for their principles and ours, in the face of such intense opposition even from supposed fellow conservatives and activists for liberty. You are both incredibly inspiring.
This is the LEFT you are dealing with. They are POSSESSED of SATAN – their father. Laugh all you want, but it’s true. They are DEMONS. And they call themselves DEMONCRAPS!
Good point!!
I am totally with Palm and Jim Hoft at the Gateway Pundit, but one thing he said – although true enough (about the hegemony of the anti-Trumpers at CPAC) – seems to have been refuted in part because Trump made a GREAT appearance at CPAC and was roundly cheered by Conservatives across the board. How could Schilling et al allow this if they’re so “anti-Trump?” Of course, as things stand now among most of the GOP Conservatives (NOT the RINOs, of course!), to diss Trump publicly among THIS particular crowd would be self-defeating at the very least. CPAC can direct only so much traffic; after that, the PEOPLE’s voice is the one that’s heard loud & clear!
BTW, did the other speakers that Pam lined up for the “original” panel appear at CPAC yesterday? I’m thinking, in particular, of James O’Keefe of Project Veritas.
Wow! I hadn’t quite thought of it in those terms, but now that you said it so directly, that explanation makes perfect sense! So, in a way, Trump dwarfs CPAC any day of the week!!
My child attended a Project Veritas seminar at her university. She was blown away by him. Most of the NROTC was there too so she met some “hunky” guys that were “normal”.
O’Keeffe has worked VERY hard for the past several years to build his organization into something that Conservatives cheer and libtards loathe and fear! So happy that you daughter got to meet him and experience that PV seminar as well. We are not without hope – and not without natural leaders, even heroes!!
To the left truth is the the new hate speech. They are too busy trying again to steal our bill of rights but they will lose and we will win
Pam, shrug this off.
I wonder how many of these CPAC elites would even think of putting their lives on the line for our cause as you do. Stay the course.
Prior to this mess I did not know who or what Jim Hoft was.
After visiting his site I am puzzled about this situation.
Why did CPAC ban Pamela?
Pamela’s site is the sole one for information on the muslim cancer we suffer.
ROFLMAO!!! But it’s true!!
Yup – hormone driven illogical kids are now going to make these decisions. A child doesn’t level off till their 20’s. Then the EMOTIONAL and LOGICAL catch up. During the teen years the EMOTIONS rule! This is why car insurance is so high for young teens. They are too emotionally and hormone driven.
Once again, it would be helpful to those who may not know to initially spell out Conservative Political Action Conference and THEN refer to it from then on by its initials. Not only helpful but proper journalism. TY And thank you for all you do.
Damn Richard—I DO like the way you talk!! Please keep it up!!
Riddle me this, Batman.
Islam declares loudly and publicly their intent to wage war on every civilized country in the world and kill all who oppose their doing so. They promise to destroy every form of government that represents the civilized man and replace it with sharia which represents the fantasies of a worse than uncivilized mental deficient prophet of Satan.
The world ignores these proclamations and pats themselves on the back for being so tolerant.
Pamela Geller, as well as others, in an attempt to warn the world of this pending disaster are scoffed at as racists, bigots and troublemakers.
They are just repeating the threats of this sub-human filth who have dressed up as a religion.
Go figure.
CPAC – ACU – does not care about the censorship – b/c truth is the only weapon we have, and getting the truth to the drones and the Pod People is our only hope of stopping the Left’s Dystopian plans.
Yes, we all know RINOs who think the Left’s Dystopian Plan is either a conspiracy theory, an exaggeration, an irrelevant concern, or they think the Conservative Jesus will come on a cloud and save us.
So what gives?
They have no faith. They do not believe in conservativism. They do not believe in America. They do not believe in the West. If the Left would just buy their rope, they would be happy little bootlickers. [Wow. Bootlicker is not in the laptop’s dictionary.]
And this can be … only b/c they have paid little or nothing for it. They know none of the victims. They have not seen the victims. They have not worked for the victims. They have not buried the victims. And they have not been a victim. Actual victims – not the political construct that some mass-murdering looney tune is a ‘Victim’ of my Crazy Rays.
Mr. Hoft looks a bit creepy in the picture. My opinion.
Looks quite normal, I think.
