Deep dives
Elon Musk and Twitter Engagement
Alex Jones expresses frustration at potential Twitter censorship and shifts his tone on Elon Musk as he suspects his posts aren't getting enough engagement. He brings up the idea of shadow banning and how his content on specific platforms is being impacted.
European Troop Deployment Misrepresentation
Misinterpreting French President Macron's comments, Alex falsely claims European nations are considering sending troops to Ukraine. European leaders swiftly deny this, clarifying that there are no plans for ground troops in Ukraine.
Russia-Ukraine Conflict and CIA Partnership
Alex misrepresents European headlines about the Russia-Ukraine conflict, suggesting CIA involvement against Russia. However, statements from European leaders contradict any imminent military engagement in Ukraine. Additionally, the partnership between the CIA and Ukrainian intelligence is more about collaboration against Russia post-Yanukovych.
Jacob Rothschild and Mr. Burns
In a light-hearted segment, Alex incorrectly links Jacob Rothschild to Mr. Burns from The Simpsons, based on internet memes. He uses this comparison to jokingly reference Rothschild being in hell, citing cartoon inspiration as fact, showcasing a casual attitude towards misinformation.
Misrepresented Media Coverage
Alex Jones reacts to media coverage mischaracterizing his criticism towards Elon Musk, clarifying that he actually criticized Google. He points out the sensationalized and misleading nature of the headlines that portrayed him as turning on Musk. The headline oversimplifies the situation, leading to a false perspective.
Bongino's Story Hijacked
Alex claims that Dan Bongino used to appear on Infowars and confronts him for not coming on the show anymore. He accuses Bongino of releasing a classified document page, which is a misrepresentation of the situation. Bongino's silence agitates Alex, who seemingly hijacks Bongino's story for his own narrative.
Impact of Musk's Response
Elon Musk's response to Alex's complaints prompts discussions on Twitter. Alex reacts by accusing Musk's response of instigating fake news. This back-and-forth interaction addresses the substance of Alex's grievances while not fully resolving the censorship and linking limitations he faces.
Resolution Indeterminate
Despite the reactions from Musk and discussions sparked on Twitter, a definitive resolution regarding Alex's issues with censorship and link limitations is still unclear. The situation involves a mix of media misrepresentations, personal grievances, and responses from relevant parties, leaving the matter somewhat unsettled.
In this installment, Dan and Jordan continue to track the constantly shifting saga of Alex Jones' feelings about Elon Musk. Plus, Alex reports on the passing of one of his great villains, Jacob Rothschild.
