- (5 Sep 2018) Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones looked to disrupt procedings on Capitol Hill, Wednesday trying to make himself the sideshow of a congressional hearing on social media and elections and taunting lawmakers along the way.
Jones made a surprise appearance outside the Senate intelligence committee's hearing with Facebook and Twitter executives, telling reporters that he was there to "face my accusers."
After the hearing, Jones clashed with Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, who was answering reporters' questions in a hallway.
Jones interjected to talk about "Infowars" and heckled Rubio, calling him a "frat boy," a "little punk" and sounding incredulous that Rubio didn't know who he was.
Rubio, meanwhile, asked Jones not to touch him, to which Jones answered "I just patted you nicely" and called Rubio a "little gangster thug."
Jones also appeared to try to confront Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, who'd just finished testifying, following at least one of them out of the building's doors.
But he was too late, and the SUV he was approaching pulled away.
The "Infowars" host, whose bread and butter is shouting over-the-top grievances and wild conspiracy theories in videos he shares on social media, radio and his own websites, was temporarily suspended from Twitter and Facebook, and several of his pages were banned for what Facebook said was hate speech and bullying.
Jones was on Capitol Hill to bring attention to what he calls the "real election meddling," which he says is the silencing of conservatives on social media, "just like Communist China." The companies deny that's happening.
