Court freezes Onion deal for Infowars: Alex Jones exclusively responds on 'Glenn Beck Program'



As our nation looks forward to turning the page into a new era following the clear mandate for freedom in the recent election, the existing regime is not going quietly into the night.

Alex Jones’ Infowars has allegedly been acquired by the satire site the Onion in a court-ordered bankruptcy auction. Developments on Friday have cast doubt on the legitimacy of this acquisition, however.

Thanks to X, he moved studios and was able to immediately start broadcasting again.

On Thursday, there were reports that the Onion had acquired Alex Jones’ Infowars. By late Friday morning, Alex Jones released a statement alleging that the auction for his assets was fake and that there is now an ongoing criminal investigation into the proceedings. Infowars.com is once again live after being taken down from Thursday into Friday morning.

According to BBC News, the Onion bought Infowars with the support of the families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims, who won a $1.5 billion defamation lawsuit over Jones’ claims surrounding the school shooting. Financial details have not been disclosed.

Ben Collins, the CEO of the Onion, is reported to have said, “The Onion has a long history of helping the American public navigate some of the most difficult moments in American life, from our historic issue after 9/11 to our groundbreaking reportage after every American mass shooting. In that tradition, we hope the Sandy Hook families will be able to marvel at the cosmic joke we will soon make of Infowars.com.”

On X, Collins posted, “We're planning on making a very stupid website.”

Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention organization, will reportedly be “the exclusive launch advertiser for the site in the new venture.” John Feinblatt, the president of Everytown for Gun Safety, said, “It’s fitting that a platform once used to profit off of tragedy will be a tool of education, hence our multiyear advertising commitment to this new venture.”

He went on: “We’re proud to be a part of what comes next, not only in terms of staunching the flow of hurtful misinformation, but also for the potential this new venture has to help Everytown reach new audiences ready to hold the gun industry accountable for contributing to our nation’s gun violence epidemic.”

It is almost poetic that a gun control organization is partnering with the Onion in this attack on free speech. The First Amendment was listed first for a reason, yet the Second Amendment is listed immediately afterward as a fail-safe in the event of egregious violations of the First Amendment. Keeping that in mind, the fight for the First Amendment is not over.

Alex Jones posted a video update on his X account, saying, “This is a total attack on free speech.” He also said, “They want to silence the American people, but we’re not gonna be silenced.” He then directed his viewers to follow the Alex Jones Network on X, where he will continue to speak out against what is happening to Infowars.

However, Jones posted later in the day Thursday that the auction was not legitimate: “Infowars was not sold to the The Onion. I am breaking the news now.” According to the Independent, the judge involved in the case, District Judge Christopher Lopez, said, “No one should feel comfortable with the results of this auction.”

Since this news story broke, it was revealed that the auction’s process was questionable and is now under review. As the Independent reports, bidders were required to submit their best offers, yet the amounts of these offers were not disclosed. “The trustee who ran the auction said the total amount was a better deal overall but came in under First United American’s [Alex Jones’ proxy] $3.5 million offer.”

Therefore, the auction results are paused. The judge explained the next steps in this case: “We’re all going to an evidentiary hearing, and I’m going to figure out exactly what happened.” He added: “I personally don’t care who wins the auction. … I care about process and transparency.”

The shadiness of these developments in this story seem to confirm the true motivations behind this acquisition. Many opponents of Alex Jones take issue with him being able to speak at all, it seems. For example, an NBC anchor discussing the acquisition said, “His X account will remain — for now, at least.” While this reporter is not related to the case, it seems to be implied that the main issue is not the legal acquisition of Infowars as an asset in the defamation case but rather Alex Jones’ ability to speak out on a platform at all.

— (@)

Today, Alex Jones called "The Glenn Beck Program" to break down some of the latest developments. Jones alleges the court is trying to prevent him from broadcasting in the future. He also alleges to Beck that there was a secret sale to subvert the auction and alleges a deep state plot to take him off the air forever.

The social media landscape has completely changed the idea of a platform, which means that even the most vindictive attacks on a well-established platform are somewhat ineffective. While the defamation lawsuit and the subsequent auction for Jones’ assets were a blow to Jones’ image and security, his ability to continue speaking freely is relatively unchanged. Thanks to X, he moved studios and was able to start broadcasting again immediately.

Now, the relative ease that Jones had in moving his platform and broadcast will reveal something very interesting in our political landscape going forward. Anyone who has a problem with this fact is fundamentally opposed to free speech. Free speech and the First Amendment are the first bulwarks against tyranny.

This is a developing story that will be updated.

Satire site the Onion wins auction for Infowars, vows to make Alex Jones' empire a 'cosmic joke' for Sandy Hook families



The Onion, the satirical publication, won an auction to acquire the assets of Alex Jones' Infowars empire. The CEO of the Onion has vowed to transform Infowars into a "cosmic joke" for the families of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting.

Jones announced the transaction on Thursday morning in a video posted to the X social media platform.

'The dissolution of Alex Jones’ assets and the death of Infowars is the justice we have long awaited and fought for.'

Jones stated that his website had been "shut down" this morning "even without a court order."

The Infowars site is a black page that only reads: "Site unavailable till further notice."

Jones said he was told that the winning bid was "competitive" but not necessarily the highest bid. Financial details of the winning bid to acquire Free Speech Systems — the parent company of Infowars — were not disclosed.

Jones noted, "The Connecticut Democrats with the Onion newspaper bought us."

The Onion acquired Infowars' website, social media accounts, trademarks, video archive, and studio in Austin, Texas.

"I don't know what's going to happen, but I'm going to be here until they turn the lights off," Jones declared.

Jones added, "They want to silence the American people, but we're not going to be silenced."

Infowars was put up for auction after the court-appointed trustee in charge of Jones' bankruptcy proceedings advocated to shut down the site and liquidate his assets.

Jones filed for bankruptcy in late 2022 after juries ordered him to pay nearly $1.5 billion to families of victims of the Sandy Hook shooting — in which 20 first-grade students and six adults were killed.

Jones previously said the mass shooting massacre was a hoax.

Lawsuits filed by the families in Connecticut and Texas claimed that Jones defamed them on his show and inflicted emotional distress by repeatedly suggesting the shooting was a hoax.

Several of the Sandy Hook families supported the sale of Infowars.

“Our clients knew that true accountability meant an end to Infowars and an end to Jones’ ability to spread lies, pain, and fear at scale,” said Chris Mattei, attorney for the Connecticut families. "By divesting Jones of Infowars’ assets, the families and the team at the Onion have done a public service and will meaningfully hinder Jones’ ability to do more harm."

Everytown for Gun Safety — an organization that advocates for gun control — said it will be the exclusive advertiser in the Onion’s new venture as part of a multiyear agreement.

“It’s fitting that a platform once used to profit off of tragedy will be a tool of education, hence our multiyear advertising commitment to this new venture,” stated John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety. "We’re proud to be a part of what comes next, not only in terms of staunching the flow of hurtful misinformation, but also for the potential this new venture has to help Everytown reach new audiences ready to hold the gun industry accountable for contributing to our nation’s gun violence epidemic."

Robbie Parker, whose daughter was killed in the school shooting, said in a statement, "The dissolution of Alex Jones’ assets and the death of Infowars is the justice we have long awaited and fought for."

The Onion CEO Ben Collins said, "The Onion has a long history of helping the American public navigate some of the most difficult moments in American life, from our historic issue after 9/11 to our groundbreaking reportage after every American mass shooting. In that tradition, we hope the Sandy Hook families will be able to marvel at the cosmic joke we will soon make of Infowars.com."

In a satirical article, the Onion noted that Infowars was founded in 1999 "on the heels of the Satanic 'panic' and growing steadily ever since."

"Infowars has distinguished itself as an invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses," the Onion added. "With a shrewd mix of delusional paranoia and dubious anti-aging nutrition hacks, they strive to make life both scarier and longer for everyone, a commendable goal."

The publication said it plans to launch the new platform in January 2025.

Alex Jones REVEALS the secret to making shockingly accurate predictions



If you’ve ever delved into conspiracy theories concerning the past, future, and present, you’ve likely heard the phrase — or repeated it yourself: “Alex Jones was right.”

And that’s because Alex Jones has been right. Over and over again.

“You predicted COVID, exactly how the Deep State, the globalist Deep State, was going to use a virus that they engineered to unleash tyranny on us,” Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” tells Jones.

“You predicted,” she continues, “the fluoride turning frogs gay, and people made so much fun of you, and it turns out the studies actually show that’s true.”

“You also, on a more somber note, predicted 9/11, the 9/11 attacks, almost exactly how they happened. Airliners being hijacked into the World Trade Center,” she adds.

But how exactly does the famous conspiracy theorist get it right so often?

“I set out decades ago to learn who runs things,” Jones explains, noting that those people — the globalist elites — talk about their plans “like we’re children, or they’re speaking another language and we don’t hear it.”

“I’d love to say ‘Oh, I’m so incredibly smart.’ No, in the full report, I’m reading the Rockefeller Operation Lockstep plan,” he explains. “What stops the tyranny is people learning the documents, and it’s been the same basically on every major issue.”

Jones also correctly predicted when Biden was going to step down, but he claims it’s just “learning the rhythms of politics.”

“So a lot of us like sitting at the beach for hours,” he says. “You’re watching the waves come in, and your kids are building sand castles. You just kind of learn, like, ‘Oh, it seems every 20th wave is really big. And they get smaller, and they get bigger.'”

“So 95% of what I do is just their own admissions. You just have to actually believe what they’re saying. And then the rest of it is just picking up the rhythm,” he adds.

Prescient Alex Jones predicts the Deep State’s next plot: 'They’re even more desperate to kill him'



Alex Jones has been villainized by the left-owned media for years. A quick Google search of his name will reveal pages upon pages of articles containing phrases such as “conspiracy theorist extraordinaire,” “conspiracy empire,” “Mis-Infowars,” etc.

But the reality is that Alex Jones’ predictions have been eerily correct time and time again.

Perhaps that’s why he’s “the most canceled man on the internet,” says Liz Wheeler, who invited Jones onto her show to discuss his uphill battle against the censorship cabal and his latest predictions for America.

“You predicted COVID, exactly how the Deep State – the globalist Deep state – was going to use a virus that they engineered to unleash tyranny on us. … You predicted the 9/11 attacks – almost exactly how they happened,” says Wheeler.

Among Jones' other accurate predictions are Tucker Carlson being fired, Biden dropping out of the race , and the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

“What’s coming next?” Wheeler asks Jones.

“Cyber attack is what I said a week ago. ... I think [the CrowdStrike outage] was a test of the mega cyber attack,” says Jones, adding that he also thinks we will see “an expanded war with Russia, power outages,” potentially “more assassination attempts on Donald Trump,” and “a massive false flag against a black college or church or synagogue blamed on Trump.”

“We are in cloud cuckoo now, with a desperate, out-of-control elite that are losing their war with Russia, they're losing their war with the people, the borders are wide open, the whole world's turning against them, and they desperately want to try to maintain control and change the subject, so I would say right now, the sky is the limit,” he explained.

US surgeon general declares new BOGUS public health crisis



The left loves to slap the term “public health crisis” on things like climate change because it paves the way for government overreach and the erosion of our freedoms.

Yesterday, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy formally declared gun violence as a public health crisis and called for a ban on assault weapons and civilian use of large capacity magazines.

EVERYTHING Is A Public Health Crisis Now! This Time It's Guns!youtu.be

Murthy also attests that “gun violence is the leading cause of death for children and adolescents ages one to nineteen,” which is simply “not true,” says Sara Gonzales.

“That in itself should disqualify anything that he's going to say on the subject because that is a lie,” adds Rippaverse Comics’ Eric July. “The fact that people keep pedaling that stuff and it goes unchecked blows my freaking mind.”

According to July, this gun violence public health crisis nonsense means one thing: “What they’re gonna do is punish free people ... people who have used no aggression on anybody and have not committed any actual crimes.”

Sara agrees and makes a fantastic point: “If they were actually serious about gun violence, they would do something to clean up the streets of Chicago," "they wouldn’t be releasing violent criminals into the streets,” and they “would probably do something about the cartels coming in and out of our country.”

But the point, of course, isn’t protecting Americans from gun violence. The point is control.

Jaco Booyens points to New York City as a prime example — Currently in NYC, if someone commits a “sexual offense ... to a disabled person,” they will “walk the same day.”

“Don’t come to me with your want to fight violence,” Booyens says. “This is about taking power away from good American citizens to silence them into submission so Big Daddy Government can rule and rob your life from you.”

Alex Jones’ Infowars to be shut down and liquidated to pay Sandy Hook victims’ families



In yet another attack on freedom of speech, a court-appointed trustee in Alex Jones’ bankruptcy proceedings has disclosed plans to effectively shut down Jones’ media platform, Infowars, and liquidate its inventory to pay some of the $1.5 billion he owes to the Sandy Hook victims’ families.

This news comes in the wake of the recent verdict that Jones’ personal assets would be liquidated to contribute toward paying the astronomical judgment for spreading “misinformation.”

Today he joins Glenn Beck to share his side of the story.

The END of Infowars: What's Next? | Glenn Beck INTERVIEWS Alex Jonesyoutu.be

“This is very historic,” says Jones. “The quote ‘families’ who are represented by high-power Democrat Party law firms, the same ones suing Elon Musk right now for defamation … went on CNN last week and said, ‘We do not want money. We want [Infowars] immediately closed.”’

“They don't want to sell the millions of dollars of inventory – books, films, T-shirts, supplements, water filters. They don't want anything; they want it immediately shut down, and they said ‘because we want to stop his speech,’” he tells Glenn. “It’s just outrageous how transparent this is.”

Jones recalls when two years ago, two judges, one from Texas, the other from Connecticut, found him liable for “failure to give any discovery.” However, Jones swears he “gave them everything,” but “there was just no evidence of what they said [he] did,” so he was declared “guilty in default.”

“I was not allowed to put on defense; I was not allowed to respond,” says Jones, adding that his lawyers “weren't allowed to [defend him].”

Jones says he agreed to an “orderly liquidation,” so that “the stuff actually gets sold off,” which might allow him to give his employees some severance.

However, “they immediately ran to the same judge that found me guilty without a jury trial in Texas and just in a summary hearing [with] no evidence said, ‘Seize all the assets,”’ Jones tells Glenn. “So now the federal trustee is in a fight with them trying to block them today, grabbing the bank accounts and having the sheriff’s department … come and lock the doors.”

When Jones informed the public of the situation, the media, once again, deemed him “a conspiracy theorist.”

“They've admitted in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, CNN – everywhere – that they're going to use this precedent against me in lawfare,” he says.

“I'm guilty of plenty of stuff, I made plenty of mistakes, but I did not say 99% of what they said I said, but I couldn't defend myself,” Jones admits, adding that he did say the shooting was “totally staged” but “never sent anybody to [the families’] houses” and “never peed on graves.”

According to Jones, after “the media [created] this illusion” that he was guilty of a long list of atrocities, they made it impossible for him to respond.

“Every nightly news channel” and “hundreds of publications” were “saying things I never said, [but] I was unable to respond, so that's what's so scary about the situation,” he says.

Alex Jones Explains the Real Reason Infowars is Shutting Down

Alex Jones Explains the Real Reason Infowars is Shutting Down

Remember When Alex Jones Was A Darling Of The Far-Left?

Alex Jones no longer appeals to the fringe left because he appeals to those who feel powerless against the status quo.

Alex Jones & Glenn Beck WARN: Trump is the next lawfare target



In a devastating move, Alex Jones has agreed to liquidate his ownership of Infowars.

Jones tells Glenn Beck that the hit comes after the chief restructuring officer overseeing Infowars after his $1.5 billion Sandy Hook case “got so desperate” that he tried to go around the court and seize Infowars.

“They’re so panicked to get me off the air for whatever’s coming for the rest of the country,” Jones says, explaining that this all began when he refused funding from powerful people who wanted to control his speech.

Before Jones had been sued, he tells Glenn that he “met with some of Bilderberg group members” and “some major billionaires.”

“I’m sure you got reached out to by them as well when you were exposing Soros and trailblazing on Fox before they targeted you,” he tells Glenn, adding that these billionaires told Jones if he cleaned up what he did, they’d keep him on air and pay him.

“It was all thinly veiled payoffs, and then when I didn’t do it, that’s when they, you know, cooked this all up. And of course a Project Veritas spin-off group caught an FBI/CIA agent, it’s all admitted, bragging how they engineered all this,” he explains.

“And then again, in the Sandy Hook show trial case, they got the FBI agent who won $95 million from me — I never said his name, didn’t know who he was, till he sued me,” Jones continues. “He admitted that he basically helped organize all of this.”

“This is all about targeting American people,” he adds, noting that this is now what they’re doing to Donald Trump.

“They beta tested lawfare against me for Trump, now they’re beta testing, just grabbing stuff outside of law,” Jones says. “This is just as Trump has said a thousand times. They’re not trying to get me, they’re trying to get through me to get to you.”

Glenn agrees.

“I say this to every conservative outlet, you should stand by the case of Alex Jones,” Glenn says. “This is lawfare, and if you think they won’t do it to you, you are sadly mistaken. And unless each one of us at each of our own locations stand up and say this is an injustice, this is wrong, they’ll put each one of us out of business and silence us.”
