'Complete and total fraud': Alex Jones turns on Elon Musk after he's 'massively censored'
InfoWars/screen grab

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones lashed out at Elon Musk, the owner of X, and claimed he had been "massively censored" by the billionaire's social media platform.

On his Monday InfoWars program, Jones said that he had important news.

"But we're not sure if Elon Musk is behind this or if it's ghost of the machine, employees and people that, after he goes by and see something happening and freeze it up," he explained. "They come back and incrementally put the shadow-banning systems in place."

"[Infowars] put out one article that just a hundred percent proves in this one area, InfoWars is being massively censored on X, formerly Twitter," he asserted. "This is being blocked because now, when Elon Musk took back over or took it over, what was it a year plus ago? He said he would bring freedom, you know, back."

Despite recently forging an "alliance" with Musk, Jones complained about being unable to access all of X's features.

"I'm calling this... algorithmic shadow-banning or algorithmic throttled shadow-banning where it's done a lot of different ways, but it's definitely going on," he opined. "And so I think we're at the stage here of finding how bad the manipulation is on X, which, you know, it's total on the other platforms."

"We need to have a discussion about that and find out why that is and what changes have been made, or is he doing what Google did 25 years ago where they're open and free at first could get everybody on the platform, and it works so great, and it's so wonderful," he added. "Then over time, they start bringing in controls until now it's a complete and total fraud."

"I mean, is that all he was doing, was buying it?"

On Thursday, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) appeared to lose her defiant tone about sharing photos from inside a closed-door deposition when confronted by MAGA influencer, Benny Johnson. Reporters caught up with Boebert near the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center in New York, where former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appeared for a closed-door deposition related to her husband's, former President Bill Clinton, contacts with the disgraced financier and convicted sex criminal, Jeffrey Epstein. Earlier in the day, Boebert leaked images from inside the deposition with Johnson, which then caused the hearing to be temporarily paused. Boebert was defiant when asked by CNN's MJ Lee why she took the photos, yet she appeared to retreat that claim when reporters repeated the question.

Legendary British rock band Radiohead has a message for the Department of Homeland Security: stop using our music to plug Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

According to NBC News correspondent Sahil Kapur, the group released a statement on Friday in response to a promotional video for ICE that used their song "Let Down" without permission or rights.

"We demand that the amateurs in control of the ICE social media account take it down," said the statement. "It ain't funny, this song means a lot to us and other people, and you don't get to appropriate it without a fight."

"Also, go f--- yourselves..." the statement concluded.

This is not the first time Radiohead has intervened against their music having any appearance of association with President Donald Trump. For the same reason, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood demanded the original song he composed for the 2017 film "Phantom Thread" to be removed from the Amazon/MGM documentary "Melania." In response, producer Marc Beckman insisted there were several other rock "heroes" who were eager for their music to go into the film — but couldn't name one example.

Republicans have often faced anger from musicians whose songs have been used in GOP campaigns without permission. Last year, Kenny Loggins demanded his song "Danger Zone" be removed from an AI video of Trump in a fighter jet dropping feces onto "No Kings" protesters.

The issue goes back decades. In one of the most famous examples, Republicans routinely misappropriated Bruce Springsteen's 1984 smash hit "Born in the U.S.A.," a song with a patriotic-sounding melody and lyrics but which is actually a criticism of the Vietnam War and the U.S. government's mistreatment of veterans. Springsteen is an outspoken critic of Trump and topped the charts in January with his anti-ICE protest song "Streets of Minneapolis."

National security expert Marcy Wheeler called out Attorney General Pam Bondi after she went on a social media tirade on Friday.

Wheeler criticized Bondi over her decision to prosecute 25 people who protested inside a Minnesota church instead of pursuing legal action against more important matters, such as drug dealers.

In a post on X, Bondi claimed the following:

"Today, @thejusticedept unsealed an indictment charging 30 more people who took part in the attack on Cities Church in Minnesota," Bondi wrote. "At my direction, federal agents have already arrested 25 of them, with more to come throughout the day. YOU CANNOT ATTACK A HOUSE OF WORSHIP. If you do so, you cannot hide from us — we will find you, arrest you, and prosecute you. This Department of Justice STANDS for Christians and all Americans of faith."

Wheeler pointed out what could potentially come next.

"I find this little tantrum from Pammy f------ hilarious," Wheeler wrote on X. "She's letting drug dealers go free to do this. And the Douglas Mackey precedent will mean most of these people go free. I would be unsurprised if @AAGDhillon gets in SERIOUS trouble for her misconduct relating to it."

Wheeler also noted what the new indictment actually revealed.

"The best part of Pammy's latest tantrum is this stuff--which is the bulk of the new info in the indictment, aside from list of names--is proof they didn't find evidence of intent they need to prove the case," Wheeler wrote. "Poor Pammy, out on a limb, ethical misconduct left and right, and no evidence of intent."
