'Trash' Infowars reboot sends MAGA into a tailspin: 'Embarrassing himself'

The far-right can't hide its disdain for a parody of one of their own, while plenty of others had no problem enjoying the jokes.

The Onion released its first clip of the new and, for many, improved Infowars since taking it over. The parody news site released a skit on Saturday by Comedian Tim Heidecker where he imitates conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and his too-loud, raspy voice, and pretends to sip human blood to mock Jones' frequent hawking of questionable health supplements.

While right-wingers like podcast host Matt Forney called it "trash" in a post on X, journalist Dean Blundell described Heidecker's performance as "perfection."
