Secret Service notified as Alex Jones hosts show with 'assassinate Biden' in title

Far-right podcaster and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones reportedly hosted a livestream on social media with "Assassinate Biden" in the title, causing the internet to erupt in calls for an investigation.

Independent multimedia journalist David Leavitt flagged Jones' stream on X, which was formerly called Twitter.

"Alex Jones is hosting A Twitter Spaces with the title 'Assassinate Biden,'" Leavitt wrote on Wednesday. Leavitt's biography identifies him as an award-winning multimedia journalist with bylines and CBS, AXS, Yahoo, and Examiner.

Leavitt also tagged the U.S. Secret Service and X's safety group in the same post.

"If you were to replace the word 'Biden' with 'Elon' how fast would your account be banned from Twitter?" Leavitt then asked.

An account called "WTFGOP" also tagged the Secret Service, saying the development "needs to be investigated."

@eortner added, "How is Twitter not suspending this account? @elonmusk you sure you want to mess around w this and terrorism laws?"

@MayoIsSpicyy tagged the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

"HOLY S---!! @FBI"

@GOPJesusUSA chimed in: "THIS JUST IN: Alex Jones Scheduled to Receive Visit From Secret Service For Threat to President, Claims He Was 'Only Joking.'"

@jjacobs8438 suggested the report was disingenuous because of the full title of the stream, which appears to be asking if Biden will be assassinated.

"I’m no fan of Alex, but this is really dishonest," the account wrote Wednesday. He posted what is reportedly the full title of the event: "Will the Deep State Assassinate Biden If He Refuses To Leave?"
