Just arrest his ass. Clearly conspiracy as he's encouraging others to attempt it.
The idiot is begging to get raided, it didn't happen when he was saying he might get locked out of his studio and that was one of his most pathetic moments And as a side note, I don't think he really appreciates what would happen if biden was a martyr.
It’s Illegal to say something like, “I want to kill the president.” Like crazy illegal. It’s ok that I just said it because I was just telling you it’s illegal.
I miss when people on TV were having fun
"Open wide kids, I'm gonna grape you in the mouth!"
Look, fuck Alex Jones, but the title of the Twitter Space was "Will the Deep State Assassinate Biden If He Refuses To Leave?"
Which is some crazy conspiratorial nonsense, but it is pretty far from a call to assassinate Biden. It does technically have the words "assassinate Biden" in it, so the headline is correct on a literal level, but this is some serious click bait...
You could just as easily say "Rawstory posts article with 'Assassinate Biden' in the title", and be just as correct.
More hack journalism, they don't even mention the actual title until the very end of the article. I'm pissed I even clicked on that garbage.
You make a good point, but I still think that this is more stochastic terrorism from the right. They’re putting the notion of assassinating the president out there into the weak minds of their listeners, who will take that information and do with it what they will. It’s so indirect that Jones and co have plausible deniability.
Note how they don’t ask if the derp state will assassinate Trump, even though he’s supposed to be its enemy.
Ironically, Biden assassinating him would be cool and legal according to SCOTUS.
Only if the SCOTUS decides it's official presidential business tho
Yeah, and the current traitor majority would make up whatever bullshit to not do that, regardless of how tight a corner they've tried to paint themselves into with the decision.
But Biden could just assassinate them, too. And then there'd be nobody left to object.
Not really, controlling the military is very explicitly an "official act" as stated in the verdict. Biden could literally seal team 6 him with no legal consequences
The other recent catastrophic decision, the one overturning Chevron deference, flushed stare decisis right down the shitter.
When I say they "make up whatever bullshit," I mean they really make up whatever bullshit!
That can be easily solved by first assassinating any members of SCOTUS who would rule the assassinations to not be official business
🤓umm, excuse me, the SCOTUS rule doesn't make things legal; they stay illegal, but the POTUS will not be held accountable for them.
isn't that SO MUCH better‽
The full title of the livestream was, "Will the Deep State Assassinate Biden If He Refuses To Leave?"
Fuck this badly written article for making me want to defend Alex Jones
<squidword-packing-up.jpg> yup! Funny how the story only reveals that at the very end.
Secret Service notified as Raw Story publishes a headline with the same message in title
lemmy.world investigated for popular post with "assassinate Biden" in the title.
ogmios@sh.itjust.works investigated for comment containing "assassinate Biden" in the body.
I guess Biden should just have him assassinated since he is clearly a threat to his ability to perform his presidential duties. Surely this is what the SCOTUS was referring to when they made that ruling.
"news articles" that just showcase tweets should be banned from this community
Not only is that illegal, the dumbfuck doesn't even realize that there couldn't possibly be a better way for Democrats to sweep the election than on a wave of sympathy if Biden were assassinated.
I genuinely think Jones has a yet to be defined metal disorder.
He makes his money this way. Sometimes things don't have to be complicated.
Exactly. It doesn't make sense because it's a grift. These "pundits" are getting rich by scaring ignorant people.
I'm of the opinion that we defined it several thousand years ago, in some form at least.

Belangia helpfully adds: “A-gnoia means literally ‘not-knowing’; a-mathia means literally ‘not-learning.’ In addition to the type of amathia that is an inability to learn, there is another form that is an unwillingness to learn. … Robert Musii in an essay called On Stupidity, distinguished between two forms of stupidity, one he called ‘an honorable kind’ due to a lack of natural ability and another, much more sinister kind, that he called ‘intelligent stupidity.'”
Belangia also quotes Glenn Hughes, from an essay entitled “Voegelin’s Use of Musil’s Concept of Intelligent Stupidity in Hitler and the Germans,” providing a further elucidation of the concept of amathia (italics in the original):
“The higher, pretentious form of stupidity stands only too often in crass opposition to [its] honorable form. It is not so much lack of intelligence as failure of intelligence, for the reason that it presumes to accomplishments to which it has no right … The stupidity this addresses is no mental illness, yet it is most lethal; a dangerous disease of the mind that endangers life itself. … [S]ince the ‘higher stupidity’ consists not in an inability to understand but in a refusal to understand, any healing or reversal of it will not occur through rational argumentation, through a greater accumulation of data and knowledge, or through experiencing new and different feelings … We may say that the reversal of a spiritual sickness must entail a spiritual cure.”
Biden needs to…. Presidential Immunity that clown as soon as possible.
This guy really likes to dig himself into the stupid hole any chance he gets, huh?
Wasn't this fat fuck blubbering about how he had to sell his show? When is he finally going into oblivion?
Probably never, these fucking guys are cockroaches
This is just the attention that fat bastard wants
Ya know he may be working angle here. His whole life is over and he knows it. I'll bet he figures if he goes crazy all in on Trump that maybe he could land some political support in getting his conviction overturned if Trump wins the election. Considering his current situation its probably the only chance he has.
You’ve just described the entire fascist right wing grift.
A Biden donor event, where Biden and Alex Jones fight to the death. All on a livestream and tv. It being offical presidental business it would be legal according to SCOTUS for Biden to kill Jones. Whatever the outcome the Democrats presidential candiate will be seen as fit as well. If Biden looses, Jones is being thrown into prison.
And people say Trump is a showman....
Nothing makes me happier than hearing these losers are so threatened and cornered.
