Bankrupt Alex Jones Tells Tucker Carlson: 'I'm Almost Obsolete'

Self-described “almost obsolete” Alex Jones told his old pal Tucker Carlson in an interview on X Thursday that he is waiting for other right-wing media figures like Carlson “who actually know what’s going on” to grow in influence before he can “hang it up.”

“Now there’s been a paradigm shattering, and I’m almost obsolete, Tucker,” he said. “As soon as I see a couple hundred more prominent people who actually know what’s going on, when we’re already reached chain-reaction point, I’m going to hang it up and disappear like Obi-Wan Kenobi,” the InfoWars host told Carlson at the conclusion of the 90-plus minute sit-down.

Moments earlier, Jones lauded the former Fox News host as “our champion” in his imagined fight against “the globalists.”

“The more they throw against me, the more support I get, and it’s really become a historic battle,” the conspiracy theorist claimed proudly. “If I’m completely banned and defanged and shut down and can’t operate, only then would I try to evacuate somewhere to try to keep my show on the air. But… once they disrupt and shut down something, it’s very hard to restart it.”

“The good news is, there are so many other great talk show hosts, so many other great people that now understand this, and even have perspectives better than mine,” he added, citing Russell Brand, Joe Rogan and Steve Bannon. “I’m not obsolete yet, but … thanks to you, I know that no matter what happens to me, men and women are going to continue the fight forward into the future.”
