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

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?"

A GOP senator is being torched online after he tried to reassure people that the Trump administration knows what it's doing.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) was asked during an appearance on Fox Business how he feels about Trump's embattled deal to end the Iran war.

"I trust President Trump. I trust Vice President Vance," Tuberville said. "We don't need to listen to anybody up here on Capitol Hill. Let's trust these two."

The online reactions to him turning on his Capitol Hill colleagues in favor of the White House were fierce, however.

"America's worst senator, showing exactly why he's unfit for the office he holds," wrote Gregg Nunziata, a prominent right-wing lawyer and former Senate GOP counsel.

"Dumbest man in the Senate offers glowing endorsement," summed up John Podhoretz, the editor of the conservative Commentary Magazine.

"Congress is the only branch of government where members regularly say their job is to do nothing, just sit around like a potted plant," snarked Jeet Heer, a writer for The Nation.

"Idiot," wrote national opinion columnist Sophia A. Nelson. "Go back to Alabama."

"Why even have a Senate, Tuberhead?" asked Rex Bossert, the former editor in chief of the National Law Journal.

A MAGA senator was walloped online after he parroted a head-spinning Trump defense of his dubious Iran deal.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) was asked by CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins on Wednesday about Trump's deal to end the war with Iran.

"Are you okay with Iran having missiles?" Collins asked.

Marshall responded, "I prefer that they not, but they have to defend themselves," echoing Trump, who hours earlier defended letting Iran keep its ballistic missiles because "other people have some."

Commentators online let Marshall have it for rehashing a line that doesn't make much sense and for shamelessly flipping his positions to be in lockstep with Trump.

"This guy will say whatever Trump says on any given day," Ron Filipkowski, the editor-in-chief of the MeidasTouch news network, said. "He has no core beliefs. His political philosophy is whatever position Trump takes today, which may be different from the position Trump had yesterday."

"Trump/flunkie Republican senator says Iran has to be able to defend itself," summarized journalist John Harwood.

"Couldn't we have just come to this conclusion before 13 Americans and thousands of Iranians died for nothing?" asked American Saga writer Zaid Jilani.

"So America's adversaries need to be able to defend themselves against America for America's sake?" wondered Max Meizlish, a senior research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. "Got it. Nothing to see here. Nothing weird going on at all."

Spanish-language journalist León Krauze described the comments as "surreal." Meanwhile, Pradheep J. Shanker, a doctor and contributor for the National Review, simply wrote, "JFC" to express his frustration.

A former top MAGA White House aide warned that Trump is headed for "five-stage denialism" after his biggest flop yet.

Anthony Scaramucci, Trump's former White House communications director, made the prediction during an interview on The Daily Beast Podcast while talking about the recently announced Iran deal.

"You've heard of five-stage clingers? He's gonna go into five-stage denialism," Scaramucci said. "And he's gonna triple down on this. And he's gonna start saying things to people that are absolutely not true."

Scaramucci admitted that "the denialism of Trump" has been "the cornerstone of his success for his entire public life," but said that it's "now what's kicked in."

The deal, which reportedly includes a $300 billion fund for Iran, was an "abject failure," Scaramucci said. "In his quiet moments in his mind, he understands that this has been a disaster."
