He directed his audience to his new network, Alex Jones Live. He also suggested that the legal fight was just getting started, saying that he had "royal flushes" in the ongoing legal fight, including whistleblowers.

"Thank you for everything you built with InfoWars, Mr. Jones. We know you won't stop fighting for the Truth," the John Birch Society said on X.

Just listen to good ol' Alex Jones.
