Alex Jones, founder of InfoWars, has claimed he is the target of a credible assassination plot, citing a warning from former National Security Advisor General Michael Flynn. The alarming revelation comes just days after the murder of InfoWars reporter Jamie White, intensifying concerns about escalating threats against Jones and his staff.
In a post on X at 3:32 PM CET today, Jones stated, “General Flynn just called to warn InfoWars that he has confirmed from high-level Intel sources that there is a credible assassination plot, actively taking place against me!”
The claim was reiterated in a subsequent broadcast, where Jones alleged the plot is linked to international intelligence networks, explicitly mentioning Ukrainian operatives, NATO, and British intelligence (MI6). He tied these threats to broader plots, including alleged attempts on former President Donald Trump’s life.
General Flynn, known for his tenure as head of the Defense Intelligence Agency and his vocal support for Trump, reportedly contacted Jones directly with the warning. According to Jones, Flynn cited “high-level Intel sources” confirming the threat’s credibility.
Posts on X from Jones’ supporters suggest Flynn also referenced threats against other prominent Trump allies, including Elon Musk and the Trump family, allegedly stemming from NATO and Ukraine.
The warning follows the tragic death of Jamie White, a 36-year-old InfoWars reporter, who was shot dead outside his Austin apartment late Sunday night, March 9. Authorities are investigating the incident as a homicide, with the suspects’ stolen vehicle recovered but no arrests made.
Jones has called White his “best” reporter and blamed local Democratic officials, including Austin District Attorney José Garza, for fostering a climate of lawlessness he believes contributed to the killing. “I lay all of this squarely at the feet of these DAs and of the Soros crime syndicate,” Jones said Monday, referencing billionaire George Soros, a frequent target of his rhetoric.
Adding to the tension, Jones reported an alleged swatting incident targeting InfoWars producer Chase Geiser and his family overnight, further fueling his narrative of a coordinated campaign against his operation. “If I told you what happened last night at InfoWars… I’m probably going to go ahead and cover [it] at 11:00 AM today,” he said in a video posted to X.
UNBELIEVABLE.

The claims have sparked a firestorm online. Supporters on X have rallied behind Jones, with posts describing the situation as “unbelievable” and urging vigilance. Critics, however, question the veracity of the assassination plot.

Austin police have not commented on the alleged assassination plot, focusing instead on the ongoing investigation into White’s death. Detective Jason Jones (no relation to Alex) warned residents to remain cautious amid a possible string of car break-ins linked to the suspects, urging anyone witnessing suspicious activity to call 911.
Jones, who has faced significant legal and financial challenges—including a $1.5 billion defamation judgment over false Sandy Hook claims—vowed to continue his work undeterred. “We pledge that Jamie’s tragic death will not be in vain, and those responsible for this senseless violence will be brought to justice,” he wrote on X.
In his broadcast, he framed the threats as a desperate move by a “deep state” rattled by his influence and Trump’s political resurgence.
As of now, no independent evidence has surfaced to substantiate the assassination plot. The situation remains fluid, with InfoWars staff reportedly sent home to grieve White’s loss while Jones prepares to address the latest developments.
Whether these claims signal a genuine threat or another chapter in Jones’ long history of provocative rhetoric, they underscore the volatile atmosphere surrounding Jones’ work.
