Radio host Alex Jones became the number one trend on Twitter this weekend, almost three years since he was banned from the platform, after a Twitter user claimed that he was responsible for the mostly peaceful occupation of the U.S. Capitol building. However, video clearly shows Jones telling the crowd not to enter the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, and to remain peaceful instead.
A Twitter user named Fifty Shades of Whey went viral after posting a 17-second clip of Jones discussing the original plans for January 6 on his radio and TV show. In the clip, Jones says he was told by individuals working with President Trump that he would be asked to “lead the march” to a peaceful protest at the Capitol building. The video, which at time of publication has over 16,600 likes, contains the caption, “Alex Jones paid $500,000 to organize the insurrection on January 6th and he admits to getting his marching orders from Donald Trump. They literally sponsored a domestic terrorist attack on our nation’s capital [sic]. Arrest them.”
However, multiple videos recorded on January 6 show Jones speaking with a bullhorn in the middle of a crowd of protesters, urging them to remain peaceful, walk to an area where protests were permitted, and have a nonviolent protest.
“We need to not cause a confrontation with the police, they’re going to make that the story. I’m going to march to the other side, we have a stage, where we can speak and occupy peacefully. Tell everybody behind you, march to the other side.”

only the narrative matters to the msm- not the facts-
Alex might be an annoying loud mouth but he definitely knows how the left works.
Jones has been proven right on a lot of different things...
He been wrong on many things too, but his hit/miss ratio is better than the MSM.
Time to sue TWITTER for as much as he can get, and I’m no fan of Jones. However, if he DID NOT do what Twitter claimed (falsely), then sue the crap out of Twitter.
Tucker video already taken down.
PING!
