Keeping Up with Alex Jones
The Most Censored Media Figure on the Internet Might Be Coming Back Stonger Than Ever
While scouring the news today, I couldn’t help but notice Alex Jones everywhere.
Which is unusual. With Jones being the most censored journalist on the web since roughly 2016 - you have to purposely seek out his content these days to keep up with his latest reports that sound outlandish—a first.
Three years later, he turns out to be right.
18 months after the dumpster fire known as 2020—Jones credibility is rising fast.
His crazy rants mixed in with the Info Wars news reports are often comical and cringy - which is why some think Jones is “controlled opposition.”
I will admit to writing Jones off several years ago. I understood that his buffoonish delivery was for entertainment purposes—and selling supplements—but his antics hurt the Truth Movement and gave critics too many easy attack points.
Or so I thought.
What I’m finding in today’s news looks like a comeback of sorts for Bill Hicks Alex Jones. (Some of you will get the Bill Hicks reference.)
Is Mr. Tin Foil Hat getting respectable?
The first thing that caught my attention today is finding Alex Jones on Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast.
I’m pretty sure this was a first. I couldn’t find any previous War Room episodes of Bannon interviewing Jones.
But times change. As Bannon came to understand the legitimacy of the World Economic Forum’s plans and current attempts to implement “The Great Reset”, he must have reached a point of being comfortable inviting Jones on his show. Like many guests on talk shows, Jones has a new book out titled The Great Reset: And the War for the World.
Love him or hate him — Jones has done his homework on The Great Reset, the WEF and the various characters involved (like Klaus Schwab) in carrying out their dystopian vision for the planet.
Here is the full interview in three parts from Rumble (click the image or WATCH links)
WATCH PART 1
“Klaus Schwab is the mouthpiece of these organizations and groups. They create press releases and operational memorandums that then get sent out to Australia, New Zealand, Germany, France, the U.S. and Canada—over 100 countries and so all the politicians speak in one, unified voice. We see those composite videos where one person is saying “Build Back Better” and “The Great Reset,” “Transition,” and then another and another and all of a sudden there are 100 screens in 100 languages, all saying we’re doing this.” — Alex Jones
WATCH PART 2
“You’re a fighter and they’re obviously trying to take you down. The point I don’t think people get about you—we do at the War Room, and I personally do because I’ve followed you for years—is that you’re not just a man of action, the guy they see on the show every night, the guy on the bullhorn, the guy who is taking leadership and saying, hey, I’m in the first tank and we’ll drive this. As important as that leadership is, the true thing that you’ve done—which is stunning—if you look at the evidence and the facts—you are one of the great thinkers of this. That is very rare. You gotta go back almost to the revolutionary war generation to see that. And this new book, when Tony first approached me and I read it, I said, ‘This is it.” This guy has summarized and pulled [this topic] together.” — Steve Bannon talking about Alex Jones
WATCH PART 3
“They hate Steve Bannon, they hate Tucker Carlson, they hate Donald Trump, they hate me because we are populists. We love the people. The people get that. They can see it. They can feel it. And they’ve seen what we’ve gone through. And they don’t want them to have a spirit. So, they think if they can break us, and destroy us, that’s their symbol of the American people. Trump always says, ‘look, they gotta get through me to get to you.’ And it’s totally true. We have decided to stand up because we love America, and we can’t stand to see this happen. We aren’t heroes, we just can’t roll over. It’s like being raped.” — Alex Jones
Alex Jones on a Panel Talk with Glenn Greenwald???
The second surprise today was finding Alex Jones onstage with one of the world’s best journalists’: Glenn Greenwald.
I’m pretty sure this is another first—Greenwald is considered left-of-center but also has a stellar reputation as one of the fairest, unbiased, truth-seeking journalists working today. We definitely need more Glenn Greenwald’s in the news field.
Here’s another sign that Alex Jones is gaining credibility—listen in as the acclaimed journalist (Greenwald) interviews Jones about his new film premiere. (I’m not sure exactly what the movie Alex’s War is about—but it sounds autobiographical.) The interview took place in Austin, Texas at the Rollins Theatre:
First, a two-minute clip from Twitter that’s interesting and I’m glad Greenwald brings this up—asking Jones about his penchant for cartoonish behavior and how that gives his critics “cheap weapons to attack you with.”
Here is the entire panel discussion on Rokfin:

Alex Jones and the Jan. 6 Committee
For those following along — Jones was subpoenaed to testify before the Liz Cheney led congressional committee investigating Jan. 6. Jones talks about it in his interview with Steve Bannon.
Alex Jones says he pleaded the 5th 'almost 100 times' in questions from Jan. 6 committee writes the Austin American Statesman
Something is changing with Alex Jones. He appears to be moving from “fringe conspiracy theorist” to “credible conservative news reporter.”
I haven't watched the videos yet, but the World needs Alex Jones back in it. His passionate presentation has caused him to be painted at a conspiracy theory lunatic. But... if you research everything he's said, he's been right on the money about more than 90% of it.
Excellent interviews with Glenn and Steve. Heady stuff. Thanks for putting this together, Matthieu.
