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.
That’s what happens when you don’t pay your bills.
How do people fall for this guy’s lies? He’s not even good at it…
I fucking wish.

How does that make any sense? Why would his guards know anything he didn’t?
Because he knows that he is not sharing his drugs
Because the water is making the guards gay now too
Gay water for Pride Month.
Shut up and pay up.
Realistically they are losing the lease on the building they rent and some mediocre recording equipment, maybe some dumb neon signs. He could run his shitty podcast from his bedroom if he wanted to. He’s whining like they are forcing him into silence, but this won’t even cover the teeniest fraction of what he owes the people whose lives he tried to destroy. Fuck him. Way harder.
Why are people so dumb that they fall for it?
Closing that racist, disinformation and propaganda system down would make the world a better place. He really should have gotten a long prison sentence
There is no way anybody would shut him down as long as he’s not violating the conditions imposed by the judgement. As long as he is working, every dime he’s making is going to pay his victims. It wouldn’t make ANY sense whatsoever to shut him down.
And nothing of value was lost.
Some good news to start off the week!
… Should I buy a bottle of champagne?
He has made this claim in the past. It’s just another grift.
*should
