Along the way, Jones made some wild missteps but also had a surprising number of correct predictions. Jones was one of the first personalities to be deplatformed and face the full brunt of technological censorship. Long-running Infowars host Harrison Smith joins me to discuss the rise and fall of the network and what it means for the future.
