In what he described as an “emergency broadcast” on Saturday, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones claimed that his far-right news company, Infowars’, studios in Austin, Texas, might be shut down by federal authorities soon.
“This is going to be Infowars’ last show, because I learned yesterday that they were going to padlock the door and kick us out last night,” Jones said while on Infowars on Saturday.
On the same day, Friday, May 31, the news outlet published an article saying it might be shut down in 48 hours.
Newsweek contacted Infowars by email on Sunday morning for comment and any evidence of the alleged attempt to shut down the company’s studios.
Jones said that he spotted “guards looking at me weird” at the entrance of the Infowars building and believed that his company was going to be shut down.
Basically, the entire studio has been repossessed, has guards around the perimeter.
You can currently find clips of him breaking down and crying on twitter, and the whole broadcast is viewable on rumble, but I don’t have an x account nor am I going to post a rumble link.
He played out the end of the broadcast with, of course, ‘My Way’ by Sinatra.
It’s amazing what a childhood filled with cramming a kids’ brain full of religion will prepare them for.
When a kid grows up believing nothing but bullshit and lies, it’s no wonder they worship con men like Trump and Jones. This is exactly why conservatives keep pushing for religious indoctrination in schools. It makes children’s minds pliable for molding to their fascist lies while stripping them of the capacity for critical thinking. Yet they accuse everyone else of “grooming”… Every accusation is a confession.
In a better world, their parents would be held criminally responsible for child abuse.
