In a tirade about the COVID-19 pandemic, Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones called for mass executions of people who developed and promoted the vaccine. Claiming that they were responsible for the deaths of 20,000,000 people, Jones demanded that Bill Gates, Anthony Fauci, and others be publicly hanged.

Jones complained that Dr. Anthony Fauci, Klaus Schwab, and Bill Gates are “still walkin’ around” after murdering “20,000,000 people.” After a rambling monologue about COVID lockdowns and mask mandates, Jones called for the metaphorical assassination of Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.

“But the point is you just can’t let this criminal group run around and reconstitute itself and do it again,” Jones said. “And I’m not saying citizens arrest ’em — they’d turn that into terrorism. I’m not saying go out and blast or, you know, kill the head of Pfizer, [Albert] Bourla.”

“But I’m saying politically, culturally, non-violently assassinate his name, assassinate his stock, assassinate everyone that served him, politically, non-violently with a assassination of his identity. Because he is a bad person. And then don’t worry, the criminal charges will come. And they need to come. And they must come.”

But Jones quickly dropped the metaphor, pivoting to a direct call for executions. “He must hang for what he did. Bill Gates must hang for what he did. Fauci must hang for what he did,” Jones declared.

“They knew they were lying. They knew it erased the immune system. They knew it was depopulation. And they were gonna then blame it on the future viruses — the mass death the shot caused — and keep the fear going, give you even more shots, as more people get sick and die.”

From there Jones’ calls for executions became more explicit, with demands for public hangings that he described in graphic detail.

Jones said that “all the other tyrants and all the other would-be psychos and mad scientists need to see them jerking at the end of a rope for the millions they killed,” and called himself and his followers a “human supremacist movement that wants to empower the species.”

He went on to say, “[W]e gotta get ’em. We gotta — legally and lawfully — take over the system, and then they gotta be executed. … It needs to be said. They murdered 20,000,000 people. They need to die. And I’m not somebody that loves death. I don’t take any pleasure in that. But they need to be executed. And you know they do.”

Jones cautioned viewers not to “truck bomb ’em” or “shoot ’em” because “the media will spin it and it’ll be turned against us.”

But he immediately returned to discussing the possibility of taking over the “justice departments of the world” and staging televised hangings.

“And then the kingpins get marched up on a public platform on international television, and we put a rope around their neck, and we pull the lever, and we break their neck in front of billions of people,” he said. “And we say, ‘That’s what happens when you kill children and innocent people.'”

As he spoke, an image of a noose appeared on screen.

“And so all you Lolita Express-flyin’ people that like to rape little kids ’cause it makes you feel powerful, you’re gonna all end up like Jeffrey Epstein one way or another: with your necks broken,” he warned. “And I want you to know, legally and lawfully through the system, after you’re convicted, we’re gonna break your necks just like Jeffrey Epstein.”

Multiple right-wing figures, including members of Congress, have praised and defended Alex Jones. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has called Jones a “friend” and appeared on his show several times. Sen. J.D. Vance once declared him more trustworthy than MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk publicly claimed that Jones’ wild-eyed conspiracies about a “one world government” were actually correct. And this year former BlazeTV contributor Steven Crowder officially partnered with Jones and his Infowars brand.
