Infowars claimed that Hillary Clinton was connected to “top occultist Marina Abramovic” because the Yugoslavian performance artist once invited John Podesta, former chairman of Clinton’s presidential campaign, to a “spirit cooking” dinner. (Citing every teenage goth’s favorite Nineteenth-century occultist, Aleister Crowley, Infowars reported that dinner would include “eating semen, blood and breast milk.”
Infowars claimed Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl Halftime Show would be a cover for a satanic rite. “She wears meat suits and does all these rituals… and the organizers of the Super Bowl are deciding to defile America and break our will by having us bow down to this,” Jones said. “They say she’s going to stand on top of the stadium, ruling over everyone with drones everywhere, surveilling everyone in a big swarm. To just condition them to say, ‘I am the goddess of Satan,’ ruling over them with the rise of the robots in a ritual of lesser magic.”
Infowars claimed that Obama was using secret weapons to control the weather, said in 2013. “We had floods in Texas like 15 years ago, killed 30-something people in one night. Turned out it was the Air Force.” Jones thinks that natural disasters have been the result of government interference since the early 1990s. In the nearly three decades since, he’s said, major Western governments have been secretly “adding to jet fuel a whole host of radioactive isotopes” to manipulate the weather, even going as far as to “create and steer groups of tornadoes.”
Infowars not only claims that 9/11 and the Boston Marathon Bombing were inside jobs, supported by the US government; he also promotes conspiracies about #PizzaGate and Sandy Hook.
