""I am wearing his (Alex Jones) skin," said Heidecker in an impersonation that will absolutely ravage his throat over time. "I've been wearing his skin now for about two weeks. It is tough skin. It is Texas skin. It's leathery.""
"The Onion debuted Heidecker's first Infowars broadcast late Friday night, where he hollered and yammered just as Jones before him. Over the short stream, Heidecker-as-Jones fielded calls from other comedians impersonating the likes of President Donald Trump."
"A surreal and often sad affair, The Onion put in a bid in 2024, following Infowars filing for bankruptcy in 2022. That filing occurred after the courts decided Jones and his site owed the Sandy Hook families $1.3 billion in damages."
The Onion has officially taken control of Infowars, replacing Alex Jones with comedian Tim Heidecker. This transition follows years of legal battles and conspiracies. Heidecker's first broadcast featured him impersonating Jones, engaging with other comedians in character. The takeover comes after Infowars filed for bankruptcy due to a $1.3 billion judgment against Jones for damages owed to Sandy Hook families. The Onion's involvement aims to repurpose the controversial platform while addressing its history of false flag accusations.
