Tony Tenpenny is dead

Former Nashville Council Member Tony Tenpenny, who shared social media posts questioning the coronavirus pandemic and the government’s response, has died of complications from the virus.

Vice Mayor Jim Shulman said on Sunday that Tenpenny was hospitalized for more than a month and was placed on a ventilator in early September. He had died overnight, the Tennessean reported.

Tenpenny served on the Metro Council between 2011-2015. He unsuccessfully ran for reelection last year, according to the Tennessean.

The former council member made more than a dozen posts stating or sharing COVID-19 disinformation, NBC reported.

Tenpenny shared social media posts questioning the coronavirus pandemic and the government’s response to the pandemic in the months before he died of the virus, including a post in early July calling the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) “pure lying asses.”

And now his ass is lying dead in the ground. One of 200,000.

One is a tragedy. 200,000 is a statistic, right Donald?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
