    Did he? The full title of the stream was, “Will the Deep State Assassinate Biden If He Refuses To Leave?” Seems like it was just clickbait because the article says nothing about Alex encouraging it.

      Yeah. It doesn’t really get any less ambiguous without adding “I really mean it in a legally actionable way!” or some such nonsense.

        I hate Alex Jones but I don’t follow your logic. Can you be less ambiguous to help me out? What did Alex say? I can’t find a single article supporting what these commenters claim, not even this post’s article. It seems like everyone is making stuff up after reading the headline and not even clicking the link to read it.

            Seriously? Asking for a source makes me a troll? I’m a skeptic of all things and I’m tired of everyone on all sides exaggerating and editorializing news. It seems like most people in the comments didn’t read the article, or maybe they’ve seen some other articles that they aren’t linking to. I don’t listen to Alex Jones so I don’t know what he’s saying on this topic but it’s not covered in this article.

        I ask because the article says nothing about him encouraging others to do it. I was hoping someone would link or explain more.

            As far as I can tell, the title was clickbait and he did not encourage violence, but I would love to be corrected. Look, I hate defending this guy, I’m just doing this because I hate sensational headlines.
