Evidence Alex Jones and InfoWars are a Russian Disinformation Warfare System Demoralizing Americans

I. Alex Jones Hired as Editor of Infowars Kurt Nimmo Who Had Socialist and Communist Ties (2008-2016)
An important indicator that InfoWars is not a patriotic organization and is in fact a crypto-communist, pro-Russian disinformation operation is Alex Jones’s choice of editor in 2008. That year, he hired a man by the name of Kurt Nimmo who was contributing to the leftist news website CounterPunch as well as crypto-communist run GlobalResearch (we will discuss the latter later in this article).
CounterPunch was established in 1994 by Ken Silverstein; however, by the time Nimmo was writing for the publication Silverstein was no longer there and the co-editor at that time was Alexander Cockburn—a descendent of Sir George Cockburn, the Englishman that burnt Washington, DC in the war of 1812.1 Alexander’s father was Claud Cockburn, a known communist writer and a leading member of the British Communist Party who allegedly was a leader of the Western European Comintern.2’3 Alexander didn’t stray far from his father’s beliefs, and he has openly stated he is a Marxist.4 He worked for the New Left Review which was a Marxist publication before becoming co-editor at CounterPunch.5
Nimmo had 106 articles published at the leftist CounterPunch and fifty or so articles at the crypto-communist GlobalResearch before being hired by Alex Jones in 2008. Why would Alex Jones hire for his supposedly patriotic “right-wing” InfoWars outfit someone like Nimmo with his socialist and communist ties?
II. A Curious Choice for the Name of the Infowars Online Archives
Pravda was the name of the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. It translates to “truth”. Someone at InfoWars— out of all the languages and words extant on planet earth—chose Pravda with its Soviet, Cold War connotations to preface InfoWars in the Infowars online archive web link.6
III. Russian Immigrant, Grandson of a KGB Officer, Fan of Lenin, Daniel Estulin Was a Sought-After Guest on InfoWars
Daniel Estulin, born in the Soviet Union (present day Lithuania), claims that his grandfather was a colonel in the KGB.7 Estulin also claims that his father was a Soviet dissident and that he was kicked out of the Soviet Union in 1980.8 Despite these claims, he seems to have a fondness for the founder of the Soviet Union, Vladimir Lenin, posting an image of a Lenin propaganda poster on X which basically communicates the idea that Lenin will continue to influence people in the future.9 Daniel also had an RT program called Desde la Sombra (From the Shadows).10’11Daniel echoes the Kremlin line when he has posted on Twitter/X about de-nazifying Ukraine.12 After writing a book on the Bilderberg Group, the communist leader of Cuba, Fidel Castro, invited him on to the island for a meeting which Daniel accepted.13 Daniel was also featured on Iranian state television,14 and he spoke at length with the wife of Marxist Lyndon LaRouche—Helga Zepp-LaRouche.15 Daniel collaborated with her going back many years to 2006 or 2007; he attended at least one Schiller Institute Conference where he was also interviewed at, and he said he gave a speech to the Venezuelan Joint Chiefs of Staff previously.16’17’18 Daniel also appeared more recently with a former Schiller Institute volunteer and Executive Intelligence Review contributor Matt Ehret.19’20’21 As for his appearances on InfoWars, he was reportedly on the Alex Jones show as early as 2007 and made many more appearances thereafter up to the time of writing this article in 2024.22
IV. Early Guests on InfoWars were LaRouche Associate Webster Tarpley and Lyndon LaRouche
Lyndon LaRouche was a Marxist and likely a communist. He was previously a member of the Socialist Workers Party which was linked to Lev Davidovich Bronstein, more popularly known as Leon Trotsky.23 In the late 60’s he organized the National Caucus of Students for a Democratic Society Labor Committees group which included expelled members from the SDS faction Maoist Progressive Labor Party.24 This group later (1969) became the National Caucus Labor Committee NCLC with the addition of recruits from the City College of NY and Columbia University.25 The NCLC put out a Marxist publication called New Solidarity and established in 1973 the U.S. Labor Party which preached a Marxist revolution and which LaRouche ran under.26 It is important to point out that the NCLC preached reindustrialization of the economy because in communist theory you have to fully go through all the phases of capitalism before you get to socialism. This helped it appeal to conservatives in terms of the rhetoric.
In 1974 and 1975 LaRouche spoke to the Soviets at the UN and asked that the CPUSA get merged into his NCLC; however, this was not done.27 According to a sources of J.R. Nyquist, an independent researcher on communism, LaRouche even made it to the Soviet Union and spoke before meetings of the Soviet Central Committee.28 LaRouche’s associate, Webster Tarpley, was the Washington Bureau Chief for his Executive Intelligence Review publication as well as an advisor to one of LaRouche’s PACs.29
Given both LaRouche’s and Tarpley’s Marxist and communist background and connections, why would a so called Texas patriot like Alex Jones have on his InfoWars broadcast that has been labeled “right-wing” these men? Tarpley appeared 35 times with Alex and Larouche 11 times while his other associates appeared many other times as well. Perhaps it was as J.R. Nyquist said:30
The Soviet Union wanted to develop right-wing parties throughout the world…that would basically follow a communist line while also espousing right-winger…conservative views.
V. Know you Enemy
In 1959, at a Moscow conference of senior KGB officers Chairman of the KGB Alexander Shelepin reported that:31
The "main enemies" of the Soviet Union were the United States, Britain, France, West Germany, Japan, and all countries of NATO and other Western-supported military alliances. (It was the first time that West Germany, Japan, and the smaller countries had been so named in KGB documents. The security and intelligence services of the whole bloc were to be mobilized to influence international relations in directions required by the new long-range policy and, in effect, to destabilize the "main enemies" and weaken the alliances between them.
Since the Cold War, the allied, democratic West has been the identified enemy of the communist world primarily based out of Russia and more widely the Eurasian landmass. The communists are good at identifying their enemies; however, they recognized when they were out in the open as a perceived unified bloc, the westernized nations were also good at identifying their enemy, i.e., the communist bloc. Shelepin realized this in the middle of the last century and came up with a plan to reorganize the KGB for strategic long-range disinformation and deception operations to confuse the western allies as to the identity of their enemy. If the communist countries could fake splits and fake democratic liberalizations and get the West to believe in such lies the West would no longer be unified against the world communist threat, because that threat would appear no longer extant. This is precisely what KGB defector Major Anatoliy Golitsyn argued was being planned by the KGB in his 1984 book New Lies for Old.
I’ll point readers to the first section of my previous article for more information on this, and I also suggest reading the work of J.R. Nyquist who was aware of this plan over three decades ago and has been trying to warn people about it since.32
The important point I am trying to make is that the United States and NATO have never stopped being the identified enemy of the Soviet Union and crypto communist Russia and their communist allies. Damning evidence supporting this claim is the case of Aleksandr Dugin. As early as the 1990’s he had the blessing of the Russian Ministry of Defense to be an adjunct professor to the Russian General Staff Academy (via an introduction to General Igor Rodionov, the commander of the General Staff Academy through his Dugin’s boss Aleksandr Prokhanov),33 which produces high level officers. What was Dugin teaching at the Academy from his Foundations of Geopolitics (1997) text?34
Regarding Ukraine:
…the existence of a ‘sovereign Ukraine’ is on a geopolitical level a declaration of geopolitical war on Russia…The Ukrainian problem is the most important problem facing Moscow. (pg. 373)
Regarding NATO:
Moscow’s task is to wrest Europe from US (NATO) control, promote its unification and strengthen integration ties with Central Europe under the sign of the main foreign policy axis Moscow Berlin. (pp. 360-361)
Regarding special services operations against the United States:
In this regard, the position is clear: it is necessary to counteract US Atlanticist geopolitics at all levels and in all regions of the world, trying to weaken, demoralize, deceive and, ultimately, defeat the enemy as much as possible. It is especially important to bring geopolitical turmoil into the US domestic reality by encouraging all kinds of separatism, various ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements of extremist, racist and sectarian groups that destabilize internal political processes in the USA. At the same time, it makes sense to support isolationist tendencies in US politics, the theses of those (often right-wing Republican) circles that believe that the US should confine itself to its domestic problems. (pg. 358)
Regarding world domination:
At the global level the construction of a planetary New Empire will have as its main ”scapegoat“ the United States, the undermining of whose power (up to the complete destruction of this geopolitical structure) will be carried out systematically and uncompromisingly by all participants in the New Empire. In this respect, the Eurasian project implies Eurasian expansion into South and Central America in order to take it out of the control of the North (here the Spanish factor could be used as a traditional alternative to the Anglo-Saxon one), as well as provoking all kinds of instability and separatism within the US borders (possibly to rely on political forces of African-American racists). The ancient Roman formula ”Carthage must be destroyed“ will become the absolute slogan of the Eurasian Empire, as it will encapsulate the essence of the entire geopolitical planetary strategy of the continent awakening to its mission. (pg. 238)
This one valuable piece of evidence here disarms the countless pedestrian memes you see on X about NATO being an aggressor and that the West should abandon Ukraine. The Russian military has been—since the time of the Soviet Union—planning the overthrow of the United States. This is not hidden information; however, so many people aren’t reading and get their information from short memes on social media by influencers heavily affected by Russian disinformation or working for Russia. The image below is a collage from images posted by the Serbian Strategic Research Institute under the Serbian Ministry of Defense of a presentation Dugin put on at the Institute. One of the images shows Dugin’s map of the New Empire.35’36 The second and third images below are a short dossier followed by a slightly lengthened dossier on Dugin.
VI. Alex Jones and InfoWars Associates Promote Dugin who wants to Destroy the United States of America
Alex Jones was aware of Dugin and familiar with his writings as early as 2008 as stated by him on a broadcast the clip of which can be found in the Hijacking Reality video series (see part III and part IV for Dugin sections). The first know public appearance between Dugin and the InfoWars team was a March 12, 2016 interview of Dugin by Jones’s fourth hour host Jay Dyer on Dyer’s platform (Dyer was at one point part of the Orthodox Church community which could explain how he came across Dugin).37
Dyer was very much part of the Russian disinformation ecosystem, in addition to his work at InfoWars, he had articles featured on GlobalResearch (InfoWars employees Steve & Paul Watson did as well) which means he was two degrees of separation from the Russian intelligence services.38’39 GlobalResearch was founded by Michel Chossudovsk who Alex has favorably interviewed multiple times.40 Chossudovsky is the son of a Soviet Citizen and UN employee who was writing about socializing the means of production during the Cold War.41 Chossudovsky himself has met with communist leader Fidel Castro,42 and he has partnered with Russian foreign intelligence tasked Strategic Culture Foundation and Russian federal security service tasked South Front (InfoWars associate Jack Posobiec retweeted many South Front posts)43 as well as republished articles written by Russian military intelligence officers.44
Chossudovsky is also on the scientific committee for the Italian Journal Geopolitica45 which puts him second degree to Dugin via that journal’s director who is Tiberio Graziani46 (Graziani was also featured on GlobalResearch);47 Graziani is also on the high council for Dugin’s International Eurasian Movement.48 For InfoWars’s Jay Dyer to be featured on a crypto communist website deeply intertwined with Russian intelligence is very telling, but Jay was also featured on Dugin’s Geopolitica49 (as was Chossudovsky)50 and Konstantin Malofeev’s Katehon (as was Chossudovsky).51’52
The first public appearance of Dugin and Jones together was on the Russian Tsargrad.TV network on December 20, 2016.53 This network was founded by Malofeev (U.S. sanctions effective date Dec 19, 2014)54 and former Fox News director Jack Hanick.55 The parent company was Malofeev’s Katehon which had at the time two retired Russian intelligence colonel-generals sitting on its advisory board: Leonid Reshetnikov (SVR) and Alexander Makarov (FSB).56 Malofeev had also previously hired former FSB director Alexander Borodai who worked at the same Soviet (later Russian) Ministry of Defense sponsored publication Den’,57 (meaning day) which later became Zavtra (tomorrow) after its editorial board supported the failed coup to prevent the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, as Aleksander Dugin and Israel Shamir (the latter who was a mutual associate of Dugin and Julian Assange). Borodai would later become prime minister of the Donetsk People’s Republic.5859
This first interview between Dugin and Jones was translated by a ethnic Russian descended employee of Jones named Daria Karpova for the InfoWars audience.60 In the interview recap by Jones to his audience, he mentions the people he was on with were “top Putin advisors” and that it was “Vladimir Putin’s favorite TV show” neglecting to tell his audience any of the important history about who Dugin was to his audience (like Dugin being a Bolshevik) despite Jones being familiar with his writings nearly a decade prior.61 Some of Dugin’s published works at that time were Foundation of Geopolitics (1997), 4th Political Theory (2012) and The Last War of the World Island (2016). The first two explicitly call for the destruction of the United States and the latter is mostly Dugin’s history of the Russian School of Geopolitics of which he was one of the founding members.
By the time of this first interview between Jones and Dugin, Dugin was already sanctioned (March 11, 2015 effective date) by the United States;62 therefore, with that interview (along with the previous Dyer-Dugin interview) and the subsequent ones, Alex Jones and Infowars were arguably aiding a Russian national in opposition to the government of the United States and Ukraine. The U.S. Treasury sanctions called out Dugin as a Russian elite helping Putin and his invasion of Ukraine. U.S. Sanctions prohibitions “include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any blocked person and the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person.” Alex Jones and the InfoWars associates were in the best light walking a very fine line. They promoted both Dugin and his work which could have resulted in financial gains for Dugin. Even if there were no financial gains, InfoWars aiding Russia’s information warfare system in their portrayal of Dugin and Russia in a very positive manner.
Another interview between Jones and Dugin followed on Feb 7, 2017 where at the start of the interview he featured sanctioned Malofeev’s website Katehon while saying him and Dugin were reading from the same historical piece of music likening what Dugin was promoting to the rebirth of Russia, the rediscovering of the greatness of Russia and humanity itself.63
The third interview between Jones and Dugin occurred on Aug 4, 2017 days before the Charlottesville chaos. By the time the third interview was over with, Jones had— between the three interviews—framed Putin and Russia as fighting against the same globalist enemies identified by Jones. He said the globalists hijacked the U.S. government and Russia was the new 1776. He hid the anti-Americanism of Dugin’s writings and allowed Dugin himself to explain it away, and dropped the Bolshevik part out when he said Dugin founded a Russian nationalist group. It is also worth mentioning Alex Jones’s associate Jack Posobiec with regards to Dugin.
Posobiec, previously worked at Office of Naval Intelligence, he is an Orthodox Christian,64 author of 4D Warfare (applying military intelligence to social media) and married to Orthodox Christian Tanya Tay Posobiec who was born in Slovakia under the Soviet Union and speaks fluent Russian and whose father serves in the Russian allied, Belorussian internal police force. 65’66 Posobiec, coincidentally would appear on the same program (different segment) as Dugin on InfoWars (August 4, 2017). What is interesting about this coincidence is that Posobiec was posting about Dugin and his book Foundations of Geopolitics months prior. On April 22, 2017, he stated on Twitter that “Putin has all Russian officers read this book by Dugin”.67 Another post by Posobiec on Twitter was an image of him holding that book inside CIA headquarters stating it was “summer campaign reading” (June 13, 2017).68 Despite having ample time to familiarize himself with Dugin’s work which talked about destroying America and starting a new empire, he failed to warn the patriotic InfoWars audience about this foreign national with ties to the KGB and the Russian military when he came on the same program as him on August 4, 2017.
Days later, on August 18, 2017, the chaos at Charlottesville unfolded and six individuals/influencers with links to Dugin, Jones and Russia attended that event. Dugin remarked on Facebook about Charlottesville that it was “…the beginning of the war. Let it be our war - not racial, but united white and black against the liberal globalists…” In his book Foundations of Geopolitics, destabilizing events like Charlottesville are called for. He states that:69
It is especially important to bring geopolitical turmoil into the US domestic reality by encouraging all kinds of separatism, various ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements of extremist, racist and sectarian groups that destabilize internal political processes in the USA.
This is not to say that Dugin was primarily responsible for Charlottesville, but that there is evidence of a long running campaign of Russian disinformation operations of which Dugin is a part of to produce events like Charlottesville that appear organic and entirely home grown in the United States. Russian disinformation was one of the ingredients for producing Charlottesville.
For the final interview of Dugin on Infowars (after Charlottesville) Alex Jones was not there to interview Dugin but had his colleague David Knight run the interview.70 Following Charlottesville, Jones would acquire a Russian VISA but there is no evidence he used it.
VII. Infowars and the Iranian New Horizon Conference Attendees
On September 20, 2019, the Tehran Times reported:71
With an international conference on peace and truth about to open in Beirut, the FBI has launched an intimidation campaign against American academicians, veterans and activists who were invited to the conference in order to prevent their participation…According to the organizers of the conference, the American guests have been facing threats and harassments from the FBI. The guests informed the organizers that the FBI security agents have appeared at their doorsteps, warning them of “dire consequences” if they “ever tried to the NHC again.”
Why would the FBI have an interest in the Iranian New Horizon Conference that is obscure to most Americans? Perhaps it had to do with an espionage case involving that conference that dates back to 2012 involving a former U.S. Air Force counterintelligence agent that defected to Iran after attending the conference.72 That case made the news in February of 2019. During that same period, the U.S. treasury placed sanctions on the organizers of the event and released an official statement to the American public. Here’s an excerpt from that statement:73
New Horizon Organization hosts international conferences that serve as a platform for the [Iranian Republican Guard Corps-Qud Force] IRGC-QF to recruit and collect intelligence from attendees. Conference organizers have facilitated contact between the IRGC-QF and U.S. persons. Several New Horizon Organization-sponsored conferences have been held in the past few years in Iraq and Iran, where recruitment and collection efforts were made.
The QF is the intelligence arm of the IRGC specializing in unconventional warfare and military intelligence operations. It makes complete sense that Iranian intelligence would be involved in such an event that is Anti-American and Aleksandr Dugin was also a regular attendee there representing Russia and maybe recruiting for Russia. Besides attending the conference to potentially recruit Americans, Dugin was there because his textbook specifically calls out the importance of building the Moscow-Tehran axis stating that:74
The creation of a Moscow-Berlin-Tokyo-Tehran axis is the long-term geopolitical imperative of the entire Eurasian strategy, and this imperative does not depend on the specific state of the states concerned…The Berlin-Moscow-Tokyo-Tehran axis is an objective guarantee of Eurasian victory.
Both Iranian intelligence and Russian intelligence have mutual interests in recruiting foreigners critical of America. There were multiple overlapping intelligence interests at New Horizon.
So what does Alex Jones and InfoWars have to do with the conference? Did they attend? No. But their show guests (and at least one former employee), all of whom could either be compromised by Russian or Iranian intelligence) did attend including such people as: Sean Stone, Cynthia McKinney, E. Michael Jones, Philip Giraldi, Michael Maloof and Aleksandr Dugin. All the individuals have been interviewed multiple times on Infowars (except Giraldi he was only republished) and have a pro-Russian bias. Sean is an associate of Dugin, his father interviewed Putin and put out a documentary on him. McKinney attended the World Public Forum - Dialogue of Civilizations co-founded by KGB General Vladimir Yakunin. She attended the Libertarian Party sponsored Rage Against the War Machine rally which had speakers that were deeply connected to Russia such as Daniel McAdams and Jackson Hinkle (open communist). She was also an associate of Robert David Steele (involved in the QPSYOP) who was writing sparingly for the Russian International Affairs Council75 which was run by former Russian intelligence generals.76’77 Mckinney also wrote articles for RT and was a member of Unity4Julian.78 E. Michael Jones has made the pro-Russia alternative media rounds appearing with people like David Duke (also a Dugin associate), Nick Fuentes and Stew Peters. Philip Giraldi whose work has been featured on Infowars is an editor at the Unz Review which has connections to crypto communist and socialist publications and individuals.79 Michael Maloof has connections with U.S. military generals (Vallely ret., Boykin ret., the latter which is second degree to former KGB General Yakunin via Nicolas Papanicolaou), and he appeared in a Russia Beyond article after Trump’s election saying Trump wouldn’t take a confrontational approach with Russia.80
While all the aforementioned individuals don’t speak for Alex Jones, they do show the bias his program has for Russia which only adds to the mounting evidence that Alex and InfoWars have been working against the United States for many years if not its entire existence.
VIII. Infowars’s Anti-NATO, Pro-Russia Bias and its Reliance on Russian State Television and Crypto Communist Zerohedge
As early as 1999, InfoWars was running anti-NATO headlines while, during the same time period, the Russian General Staff Academy was being taught to destroy NATO—just like their predecessors the Soviets had taught. In this sense, InfoWars was absolutely aligned with the goals of the Russian military and intelligence services as early as the 1990s. In the early years of InfoWars you would find guests like Michel Chossudovsky,81, Ron Paul,82 Webster Tarpley,83 Harley Schlanger,84 Lyndon Larouche,85 and other guests that were against or very critical of NATO’s existence.
We already know Chossudovsky is connected to Russian intelligence and the communists, and that LaRouche and his associates Tarpley and Schlanger have socialist and communist connections, but so does Ron Paul, who wrote in 1999 in favor of withdrawing from NATO.86 Ron Paul is connected to the libertarian movement and the current Libertarian Party calls for cutting ties with NATO, and its allied groups have communist connections like AntiWar.com which was founded by Eric Garris the son of a CPUSA member.87’88
Ron Paul’s current executive director of the Ron Paul institute, Daniel McAdams, writes opinion pieces for RT, allows Russian foreign Intelligence tasked Strategic Culture Foundation authors articles on the Ron Paul Institute website (the second article on the website after it was stood up was from a Russian colonel at SCF as pointed out to me by X user eyepatch_man), is a member of Unity4J, has articles featured at GlobalResearch and at the Strategic Culture Foundation and has posted pro-Russian photos and a photo of himself with the third most powerful communist leader in Cuba, Ricardo Alarcón. Like Alex Jones’s later associates we previously mentioned, these early associates also provide us with additional evidence that Alex and InfoWars are ultimately serving the communist Russians (likely part of a scissors strategy).
A common theme among people connected to Alex and InfoWars is that (if they are high profile enough) they’ve been on Russian media (usually RT or Sputnik) as guests, contributors or show hosts (like Alex’s associate Max Keiser). RT’s origins go back to the Soviet Information Bureau. During 1941, a resolution was passed by the Council of People’s Commissars and the Communist Party Central Committee for the establishment of the Soviet Information Bureau which later became the Novosti Press Agency and a few more name changes after that and it became RT.89 Alex himself has dozens of interviews with RT, and he has reportedly featured over 1,000 RT articles;90 however, I suspect this number is conservative given RT is usually featured on the front page of Infowars every day just like ZeroHedge and current Google search results indicates there are over 1,500 returns for “RT.com” on InfoWars as well as 900+ for “Sputnik” on Infowars.91 As one X user pointed out to me, it is like InfoWars is Pravda on steroids. I find no disagreement with that assessment and point out again that infowars.com archives is prefaced with Pravda—a not so subtle nod to the Russians and their communist party newspaper.92
RT is not only a state sponsored media outlet, but it actively assists the Russian intelligence services in information warfare against the west. This was reported as recently as July 2024 in a recent bust by the FBI of nearly 1,000 bot accounts on X.93 The bot farm software was developed under the deputy editor-in-chief at RT, and the operation was directed by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) as a private intelligence organization that included the deputy editor-in-chief of RT and RT employees, among others.
By disseminating state sponsored information & disinformation, especially from an outlet with communist roots and which cooperates with foreign, hostile intelligence agencies, Infowars is aiding the enemy of the American people.
Furthermore, it was argued in my previous article that communism in Russia never really went away nor did the KGB, and here is an important point made by KGB defector Major Anatoliy Golitsyn to help us understand why the nature of InfoWars featuring 1,000 RT articles is nefarious.
Golitsyn said:94
Scratch these new, instant Soviet 'democrats', 'anti-Communists' and 'nationalists' who have sprouted out of nowhere, and underneath will be found secret Party members or KGB agents. The West will pay dearly for its failure to understand that 'perestroika' is not a denial of Leninism but a radical, creative and effective application of the tactic described by Lenin in 'Left-wing Communism - an Infantile Disorder'. In this document, Lenin wrote that true revolutionaries should not be afraid to discard revolutionary phraseology and adopt right-wing tactics to carry out a revolutionary policy.
After the Second World War the victorious allies correctly applied a denazification programme to eliminate former Nazis and their influence from the institutions and political life of the new Germany. No equivalent decommunisation programme has been applied in the USSR or Eastern Europe. The Soviet Party, the KGB and the armed forces with their political commissars remain intact. Yet the West is eager to proclaim and believe in the death of Communism and the evaporation of Communist influence virtually overnight. This over-hasty optimism is destined to end in disillusionment.
Just like the KGB underwent a name change so did the Soviet Information Bureau; however, the name changes do not necessarily indicate major changes of intent. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the communists were still in charge and the KGB was still operating. The name changes facilitated communist infiltration of the West and manipulation of so called right-wing groups through outlets like RT and Infowars. The passage by Golitsyn explains how the “far-right” labeled Infowars media organization can get away with carrying out a communist agenda. It was because the image of the external enemy was removed and without the image of the Soviet threat, the communists could make the American government the enemy of the American people. It was a brilliant move that the vast majority claimed never happened despite it playing out before our eyes now in news headlines.
Before we move on to the next section, it is also worth pointing out the reliance of InfoWars not only on RT but Zerohedge as well, because the latter has communists ties linking it to communist agitprop. Search returns for ZeroHedge on Infowars surpasses 3,000 which demands that we discuss this further. I previously wrote an article on Zerohedge, and I will reproduce the important parts of that article below.
ZeroHedge, a website that has a huge reader base of libertarians, Republicans, conservatives and others, is owned by ABC Ltd Media which is based out of the former communist country of Bulgaria.95’96 ABC Ltd Media’s sole manager is Krassimir Ivandjiiski, a communist agitprop veteran, who worked for the Bulgarian Communist Central Committee’s mouthpiece—the newspaper Rabotnichesko Delo from 1975 to the fall of the Soviet Union.97 Krassimir was also a member of the International Organization of Journalists (IOJ) which was tasked by the Czechoslovakian communist Central Committee and the KGB.98’99 The CIA said of the IOJ in a 1955 foreign intelligence report that IOJ was “an international communist front organization”.100 Here is an excerpt from that report:
Given these two associations of Krassimir, he was likely a member of the communist party of Bulgaria (est. 1mil members).101 I don’t think the communist party would let him write Cuba - The Future Is Ours (1977) and publish it through Партиздат, that is the Department of Propaganda and Agitation of the Central Committee, if he wasn’t a card carrying communist. Moreover, Krassimir was the head of multiple offices of Rabotnichesko Delo from ‘78-’85 according to his bio, and at that level it would be near impossible to not be working with or for the KGB.102
Krassimir’s son, Daniel Ivandjiiski, who was born in communist Bulgaria, runs Zerohedge.103 Daniel has featured writers such as Pepe Escobar, Matthew Ehret, Paul Craig Roberts, Kit Klarenberg, Finian Cunningham, Tom Luongo, Eric Zuesse, Cynthia Chung and others who also appeared on the Strategic Culture Foundation, an organization that is tasked by Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) and whose president and founder, Yuri Prokofiev, was a Moscow party chief and Soviet Politburo member.104
Krassimir went on to found a newspaper in 1994 called Strogo Sekretno. A review of its archives reveals he prominently featured people and organizations like Michel Chossudovsky of Global Research.105 Michel had a partnership with the Russian Foreign Intelligence (SVR) tasked Strategic Culture Foundation and the Federal Security Service (FSB) tasked South Front organization.106’107 Michel previously visited with communist Cuban leader Fidel Castro and republished Russian military intelligence (GRU) writers and SVR and FSB organization tasked writers.108’109 Michel’s father was a Soviet citizen and UN employee who believed in socializing the means of production.110
IX. Infowars and the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity Team
Intertwined with Russia, the QPSYOP (discussed in section six) and InfoWars is the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity team. High level members of this group are connected to InfoWars and have connections into Russia supporting their information warfare program. The individuals presented below are just a handful of the VIPS members I will highlight and below I have cited their Russian connections and provide a chart mapping it out:
Bill Binney: featured on RT,111 GlobalResearch112 and guest on InfoWars.113
Ray McGovern: Featured on RT,114 guest of World Russia Forum hosted by Ed Lozansky115 who gave U.S. conservative contacts to Dugin116 and commissioned a propaganda film (called The Other America) which McGovern was featured in and which was written by Matthew Ehret who is connected to Strategic Culture Foundation.117 McGovern is also featured on GlobalResearch118 and Strategic Culture Foundation,119 guest on InfoWars.120
Philip Giraldi: Featured on RT,121 attendee with Dugin of the now sanctioned New Horizon Conference in Tehran,122 featured on Strategic Culture Foundation123 and Republished on InfoWars.124
Scott Ritter: Featured on RT,125 GlobalResearch,126 Strategic Culture Foundation127 and guest of InfoWars.128
Larry Johnson: Featured on RT129 and guest of InfoWars130
John Kiriakou: Featured on RT,131 GlobalResearch132 and guest on InfoWars133
Robert David Steele: Featured on Sputnik,134 GlobalResearch,135 RIAC136 and guest on InfoWars137
X. InfoWars Wikileaks and the QSPYOP
The connections between InfoWars associates, Wikileaks and the QPSYOP were almost exhaustively covered in the five part video series called Hijacking Reality: The Mind Wars of 2015-2021 which was based off hundreds of sources/citations. Part five is the most pertinent to the QPSYOP, and it shows involvement of InfoWars with that operation as well as its associates involvement with Wikileaks and Russian Military Intelligence (GRU) via Roger Stone’s contact with Guccifer 2.0.

XI. Alex Jones and InfoWars Views on Ukraine are Aligned with the Kremlin
As of now, I will finish this working article with a few notes on Ukraine; although, I’m planning to expand this article in the future and polish it up some. We’ve already presented enough evidence in this article that it exceeds what you would find in many old declassified CIA reports from the 50s-60s on groups identified as Soviet front organizations. The evidence presented here that Infowars is advancing Russia’s geopolitical agenda is undeniable. With that said, let’s turn our attention to two of Alex Jones’s associates: Mike Flynn and Steve Bannon and look at their views towards Ukraine.
Steve Bannon, former chief strategist for President Trump during the early days of his administration (Jan 20, 2017 – Aug 18, 2017),138 met with Aleksandr Dugin in Rome for eight hours (Nov 2018), after his role in the White House ended, and proposed a sort of alliance with Russia against China, Turkey and Iran.139
Bannon has been on the InfoWars program many times with Alex Jones and, during a Aug 30, 2022 interview, stated that Russia is a junior enemy to the globalists and that the U.S. is the primary enemy of the globalists suggesting that the two country’s interests are aligned.140
Bannon also stated during a October 11, 2022 interview that:141
The Ukrainian situation is a border dispute in Russian speaking eastern Ukraine. It is not central to national security interests of Europe…Backing Zelensky and these Ukrainians has been a fool’s errand and the world is waking up to it.
Bannon knows very well it is not a border dispute and that it is central to Europe’s security interests despite his public comments. The invasion of Ukraine was a full scale invasion that had a huge column of troops pouring out from Belarus to the north heading south to Ukraine’s capital of Kyiv during the first months of the war to support the airborne troops that landed to the north west of Kyiv at the airport near Hostomel. The Russian push to take Kyiv failed after heavy losses, and it stalled in places outside of Kyiv like Hostomel (with the E373 outer belt road nearby) and Makariv (with the E40 main artery road to Kyiv nearby) thanks to Ukrainian stiff resistance.142 Alex Jones has also echoed Bannon’s position that the invasion wasn’t to take Ukraine, despite knowing better (Alex Jones Show Sep, 24, 2022).
A mutual associate of Bannon, Jones and Flynn that we previously discussed is Jack Posobiec. Unable to keep a consistent message about Russia’s plans for Ukraine, he admitted (in 2017) that the Russians have been planning to take over the whole country referring to Dugin’s 1997 text assigned to the Russian General Staff Academy.143
Mutual associate to Jones, Bannon and Posobiec is retired General Flynn who takes the same stance on Ukraine as the aforementioned individuals. On the InfoWars broadcast (March 11, 2023), Flynn stated that: “The Russians know how to sacrifice, believe me…and they are not losing right now. The West, particularly the United States, we are supporting a fascist regime in Ukraine. This is a loser’s war.144 Flynn mirrors the Kremlin’s messaging that the war is about denazification by calling the government of Ukraine fascist.145
It should not be surprising to learn that Flynn also suggested his X audience to listen to an interview between American communist Jackson Hinkle (Hinkle is an associate of Dugin and Sergey Lavrov and Dimitri Simes Jr. whose father is a KGB asset)146 and Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova or that he also suggested his audience view a documentary commissioned by Kremlin asset Ed Lozansky (founder of World Russia Forum and Dugin associate) who had Matthew Ehret (co-founder of Rising Tide Foundation and author at Strategic Culture Foundation) co-write the script.
InfoWars has also taken the Kremlin line in regards to the political parties that have been banned in Ukraine referencing RT articles on the subject.147 On his show, Alex Jones has cited these articles and construed them as if Zelensky is banning democratic opposition. What he fails to mention, is that these parties have ties to the communists in Russia, the Kremlin as well as supporting the “dictatorial laws”. The images below show some of these connections. It is quite telling that a so called patriot media organization out of Austin, TX wouldn’t praise Zelensky for trying to break away from Soviet Russia and its successors.
