First, it was Marjorie Taylor-Greene claiming California wildfires were caused by Jewish “space lasers.” Now Alex Jones suggests the recent Kentucky tornadoes were caused by Joe Biden‘s “weather weapons.”
The right-wing blowhard and climate change denialist made the claim on December 13 radio broadcast. In it, he once again denied the ongoing effects of climate change, and pointed to secret government weapons as the cause of a string of tornadoes that have killed dozens of people.
“So, they just think you’re stupid and they don’t want you knowing they are doing all of this, and they’ve got carbon systems they are putting in, that big, huge geoengineering systems, terraforming systems that are sucking carbon dioxide out of the air when it’s a trace gas that we need, and was hundreds of times higher millions of years ago than it is now,” Jones ranted. “That’s why plants and animals were so much bigger and healthier. But we’ve adapted to live in less air. This is insane, ladies and gentlemen.”

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“So the question is, did they use weather weapons to cause the tornadoes?” Jones further wondered. “That’s a legitimate question to ask.”
Ya know, for once we agree with Jones: his claim is insane.
Of course, insane claims are nothing new for Alex Jones. In the past, the QAnon follower has proposed conspiracy theories ranging from the widely-debunked “Pizzagate” theory that a cabal of Satanist pedophiles practice human sacrifice in a pizza shop to the claim that the government staged the Sandy Hook Massacre of 2012. Jones has also earned notoriety for his personal issues, including an arrest for driving while intoxicated and allegations of wife-beating. In 2020, Jones received a warning from the Food and Drug Administration ordering him to stop selling untested “cures” for COVID-19, a virus he previously denied even existed.

In the same broadcast (not reported here) he claimed that President Biden shut off the electricity in Texas last year. It seems those on the right have advanced totally to batshit crazy on a larger scale.

Alex Jones has always been like this. The trouble is people should just laugh and shake their heads when they see him and say nothing.
I live in Austin where he is and that would be my response.
Oh, and remember he’s all about the Benjamins.

If President Biden really had all the awesome powers these wingnuts seem to think he has, we’d all be a lot better off: Covid would be gone, Build Back Better would be passed, and tinfoil hat red states would have sunk into the sea by now.
Fahd
Absolutely, but I think they think he’s using his superpowers for evil, rather than good, because he’s out to get them. Paranoia is part of the conspiracy thinker mindset, I guess.

if Biden had that kind of power- wouldn’t there be one at Mar-a-Lago everyday?

……if it were not for the thousands of idiots that actually listen AND believe what this MONSTER and those like him spew on a regular basis, none of these sub-humans would exist. Crazies like him have always existed. However, the problem is those that follow them AND then act upon the insane ideas they suggest and/or command. I often wonder if these monsters even believe their own garbage or if they just want to see how many idiots, they can get to do their bidding. If the “sane” part of our society hasn’t seen the resemblance to what Hitler and his henchmen did to a large portion of Germans convincing them that it was okay to exterminate anyone not like them, then you haven’t been paying attention. The Democratic leaders need to get up off their “nice guy” assess and start playing dirty like the Republicans have been for years. It’s no surprise that they are attempting to block President Biden has a means to finish what they were not able to complete against his form boss, President Obama. Unfortunately, we still have the same dumb azz voters out in America that continue to vote Repukalins into office. A great example of older “clueless” voters that can’t seem to understand they keep voting against their own self-interest are the recent television commercials featuring senior citizens “bashing” President Obama and Democratic leaders for trying to reduce prescription drug prices under Medicare. The senior citizen actors in the television commercials should have their Medicare benefits stripped from them. I have no doubt that the seniors out in television land fail to notice who is sponsoring the commercials posted at the bottom of the screen. Nope, all they see are “fellow seniors” doing the obvious (to an intelligent person) con game. Same goes for the Tech company commercials featuring what appear to be “small business” people complaining about “the government” trying to take away their ability to “innovate”. The same type evil sponsers are listed at the bottom of the screen! I could go on but then readers would end up “glazing over” and not read the rest anyway. So, if you can, enlighten your grandparents AND parents if needed!

Luckily after the Sandy Hook parents finish suing this piece of human excrement for tens of millions of dollars (they will never settle….they will drag him through court for years), he will be too poor to own a microphone to broadcast his sewage. He’s definitely going to have a condo in Trump Tower-Hell.

Bitch , please…of course he does; it’s called ‘Justice’.
jayceecook
I totally believe him. Biden did it with the help of Mikkos Cassadine who gave him the Ice Princess diamond to help power the weather machine.

At which point do we hold those who give these people the ability to broadcast their messages of hate responsible? This “we’re only a communications platform, not the content provider” BS has to stop. We’ll start with Alex and go from there. Facebook should be next.

The absolute second that Dominion voting filed a lawsuit against FOX News, Newsmax, and OAN for lying about their voting machines, all three networks stopped lying about them and scrambled to put up statements correcting earlier stories.
That needs to happen here. If people like Hillary Clinton, Biden, etc. just filed a lawsuit once when somebody obviously lied it would stop a lot of this B.S.
Alex Jones just got wiped out by the parents of the Sandy Hook victims he lied about, the last thing he wants is another lawsuit.
daddytop
I agree. Hillary should have sued Donald Trump. It’s a clear cut case of character assassination, and his supporters still believe the lies.
Mr. Stadnick
These people are an embarrassment. They are making the US look even stupider than ever in the eyes of the rest of world. We have become a joke, rightfully so.
Jimthy
Oh Shi* not this idiot again. Lol.
barryaksarben
When he spouted that horrible disgusting lie about Sandy Hook should have been the end of this con man. But we didnt know just how many horribly stupid people who WANTED to believe it. People who are so insensitive and mean spirited that the sufferring of those parents was all an act. NOW that is beyond repulsive. And for the right wing media not to refute it but to glorify this deplorable LIE shows how soulless these so called religious people truly are. Rupert Murdoch has so much to answer for. They ran his slimy ass out of Britain as he used vile tactics to get news scoops including stealing a murdered childs phone and to send texts from it convincing her parents she was still alive when she was dead. What kind of monster does something like that. There is NO christian right as NO real christian would except these vicious lies. But hey they are mostly white and feel laughingly that they are persecuted. They arent they just arent good enough people to succeed on their own merits as they have so little
Ellipse Kirk
He should be sued for libel, defamation, or something to discourage such crapola. Make his money begs ineffective by taking the money away.

Alex Jones is correct about one thing – there is a tornado machine. Actually two of them. One blows a tornado out of his rectum, the other out of his mouth. They are interchangeable. Alex Jones himself is a Golum that is built out of pig s*!t.
