WATCH: Alex Jones crashes ‘Young Turks’ RNC show — and chaos ensues
Right-wing host Alex Jones invaded the Young Turks set while they were broadcasting from the Republican National Convention on Thursday, apparently in the hopes of inciting a confrontation between host Cenk Uygur and Roger Stone, an ally of Donald Trump.
With Stone off-camera, a grinning Jones can be seen telling Uygur, “I wanna have a rant-off with you,” before urging Stone to crash the set, as well.
“First of all, Alex, this ain’t your f*cking show,” Uygur tells Jones. “And Roger, it sure ain’t your f*cking show.”
Jones continues to goad Uygur, asking if he’s afraid to debate Stone, who has a long history as a conspiracy theorist.
The back-and-forth continues, with Uygur’s co-host Ana Kasparian yelling at Jones at one point to “get the f*ck off the stage.” When Jones accuses her of being part of a Saudi Arabian “jihad,” Uygur leaves his chair and removes his jacket.
“This is bullsh*t,” he tells Jones as he throws his earpiece off. The two men were separated before the altercation turned physical.
Watch the confrontation, as aired by the Young Turks, below.

The White House is moving the goal posts once again. Instead of taking drastic action, like asking every state's governor to mandate a quarantine to reduce the spread of coronavirus, it is quietly upping its projected death toll, just one day after stunning Americans with a six-digit death rate.
On Sunday President Donald Trump told Americans he thinks if 100,000 Americans die from coronavirus he will have done "a very good job."
On Monday Dr. Deborah Birx announced the White House is projecting 100,000 to 200,000 deaths.
Tuesday evening, the number increased 20 percent.
Canadian Olympic chiefs said Monday the health and safety of athletes had prompted the country's decision to withdraw its team from the Tokyo Olympics amid the coronavirus pandemic.
A day after Canada became the first team to announce its withdrawal from the July 24-August 9 Games, Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) chief David Shoemaker said athletes had been left in an "impossible position."
With public health authorities urging individuals to stay inside to curb the spread of COVID-19, athletes had been caught between a desire to heed health and safety advice while trying to minimize disruption to training programs.
Inching across a field littered with Vietnam war-era bombs, Ngoc leads an all-women demining team clearing unexploded ordnance that has killed tens of thousands of people -- including her uncle.
"He died in an explosion. I was haunted by memories of him," Le Thi Bich Ngoc tells AFP as she oversees the controlled detonation of a cluster bomb found in a sealed-off site in central Quang Tri province.
More than 6.1 million hectares of land in Vietnam remain blanketed by unexploded munitions -- mainly dropped by US bombers -- decades after the war ended in 1975.
At least 40,000 Vietnamese have since died in related accidents. Victims are often farmers who accidentally trigger explosions, people salvaging scrap metal, or children who mistake bomblets for toys.
