Alex Jones was right about Jeffrey Epstein, the jet, the island, and all the child abuse that has happened there.

Yet he is wrong about nearly everything else. If you want a deep dive on Alex Jones and all his lies and schemes, the podcast Knowledge Fight has been documenting InfoWars for years.

  He was right about Bohemian Grove in the 1990s. He gets some things right, and some things wrong. He’s about as right as most media organizations.

    "He’s about as right as most media organizations." Is this true? Do you have any analysis to back this up, or is it just something you made up because it makes you feel good?

      This is a great point -- where can we find some INDEPENDENT FACT CHECKERS that happen to have the same political bias as me to dispute the above? I'm extremely uncomfortable that people have different opinions here.

        Jones is a well documented liar and grifter. This is not a difference of opinion.

    As someone who lived directly across the river from the Bohemian Grove for about a decade, I can tell you with certainty that the only thing he was right about is that it exists and its members are wealthy. There's nothing secret about the existence or timing of the gatherings, as they're discussed in the local paper. Jobs are advertised for caterers and cleanup crews. The people hired always return, just like any other summer camp type job.

A broken clock is right twice a day. And it's not like Epstein was some unknown figure before the Miami Herald reported on him, there were public 2008 articles about his jail time, which also mentioned his public figure ties[0]. 0: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jul/02/usa.internationalcrime1 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jul/02/usa.internatio...

He is 'right' about a lot of things, but what he does is take one tiny nugget of somewhat real information and then build on it and spin it in any way he wants.
