InfoWars is an American far-right conspiracy theory and fake news website. It was founded in 1999 by Alex Jones, who remains the central figure of the organization.[1]
On December 1, 2022, Ye appeared on a live broadcast of the site's news program alongside Jones and political commentator Nick Fuentes. During the appearance, he made a lot of antisemitic remarks and stated his admiration for Adolf Hitler, reaching an all-time low in his career.[2][3]
Not long after his appearance on the show, Ye made use of his recently-reopened Twitter account to post an image of a swastika etched inside a Star of David. That led to his account getting suspended not long after. The suspension was approved by Elon Musk and justified by Ye violating Twitter's rules against incitement to violence.[4]
