Alex Jones Says Next Debate Is ‘Rigged,’ Since Moderator Anderson Cooper Is ‘Admittedly CIA’

Trump ally and conspiracy theorist radio host Alex Jones is preemptively disqualifying the next presidential debate as “rigged” against him, in part because the co-moderator, CNN’s Anderson Cooper, is “admittedly CIA.”

“They’ve got CIA Anderson Cooper running the next debate. He’s admittedly CIA. And so we are storming the Bastille peacefully with 21st century warfare, which is information warfare,” the InfoWars host said on his show.

While an undergrad at Yale, Cooper interned for the CIA for two summers, a fact that has provided grist for endless conspiracy-mongering on right-wing websites.

Cooper addressed it in a blog post ten years ago, saying that the work was “bureaucratic and mundane,” and offered: “Oh, yeah, in case you’re interested, after I graduated college, I briefly worked as a waiter, but I decided not to make a career out of that job either.”

If Alex Jones is complaining already, this should be a pretty good debate.

Once an intern, always an intern.

15. You'll have to forgive Alex Jones...

He's had no news to read since the Weekly World News stopped publishing.

My favorite headline: Boy locked in refrigerator eats own foot!

Then there's all the space aliens, big foot sightings, and the ever popular Bat Boy!!!

But since WWN stopped Alex has just had to make up his own shit.

Feel sorry for the guy. Or not.
