Yesterday, Alex Jones heralded the growth of his InfoWars conspiracy theory outlet, which has gained more attention thanks to one of its biggest fans: Donald Trump.
InfoWars’ “reporting” has also been increasingly embraced by Fox News.
Jones, who believes he has been under attack from Satan, aliens, liberals determined to flee to “off-world colonies,” Hillary Clinton and Jimmy Kimmel, said on his radio program yesterday that InfoWars is currently subject to a “sickening behind-the-scenes attack” but that God is leading him through.
“God’s taken me through it,” he said. “It’s been very painful. We’ve made it through it. Other waves are coming. Still, I cannot believe the effect we’re having. It is biblical.”
