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.
Couldn’t happen to a better person. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was lying to drum up donations though.
Exactly what I thought. Sounds like bullshit to fundraise.

Welcome to Alex Jones’ entire life.
This made the rounds yesterday, but the only source was Jones himself, and nothing appears to have happened. So, yeah, probably just drumming up cash from the rubes.
He’s been a week away from shutting down for… a dozen years?
I wonder how his listeners can keep hearing this same message for years?
Reminds me of the mattress store down the street that is always running a going out of business sale.
Like rabid goldfish
Like toast in the rain
like drunken dogs
in rage without reason
Like a rug shop.
Imagine being stupid enough to give this guy money.
I think it is important to try to understand those who you don’t agree with, but I really can’t understand giving him hard earned cash.
-
It’s clearly fake crying
-
It’s probably just a donation push.
It could be happening, but when the only source of something is Alex Jones, there’s not a reputable source for it

Don’t threaten me with a good time.
I heard it’s because they have a child sex ring they’re running out of the basement there.
I have also heard this. From many different people.
Would actually make so much sense. He’s obsessed with paedophiles.
Not only have people, many people, told me this, but also that they are also harvesting the blood of the children.
Thanks, now I’m craving pizza.
For anyone confused about the MAGA-ese: Failure to make payments under Bankruptcy and repo man coming for what’s due = federal government repressing muh rights
It’s embarrassing how, if you say the magic words, the MAGA brain shuts down and just becomes compliant with anything.
I did a quick search and he’s definitely looking for donations to help pay his bills. The bankruptcy won’t protect him from the Sandy Hook judgment so he’s still on the hook for the billion and a half.
Of course Cro-Magnon Taylor Greene Xitted her support for him.
Cro-Magnon Taylor Greene
That is an insult to all vertebrates, let alone hominids!
It’s the Deep State!!
Yet another victim of the liberal conspiracy called “consequences.”
What’s their saying? FAFO?
“There’s a 50 percent chance this is happening right now.”
So zero percent then… got it…
Shut up and pay up.
Insert oh no! Anyway meme
Jones said that he spotted “guards looking at me weird” at the entrance of the Infowars building
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
Oh no… but anyways. Anyone got anything interesting happening this week?
Hey, good news is news too!
I thought Alex Jones was the choirboy who sang “Walking in the air”
He has made this claim in the past. It’s just another grift.
As much as I want it to be true, I don’t believe a word out of Alex Jones’ mouth, even if it’s good news.
