Meet Jared Holt, the guy who’s getting Alex Jones kicked off the internet
Jared Holt of Right Wing Watch is taking credit for the coordinated ousting of Alex Jones from several platforms. I have my own reservations about Jones and am well-aware of how his actions impeded the Pizzagate investigation, but this link is too ridiculous not to ignore. I have gone over how Alefantis' gallery is funded by a family whose trust fund ended up in the hands of Charles Manson and Keith Raniere; on the other hand, I've also profiled how the CrossCurrents foundation, another funder of the gallery, has close ties to Britain's shadowy Tavistock institute.
But the biggest revelation is that People for the American Way is supported by the Bauman foundation, who have pledged their support for the gallery on multiple occasions[i]. Their support isn't marginal and they worked closely with ex-boyfriend David Brock. Like the occult-linked Cafritz family, they are one of the primary donors. The bulk of my writings on Pizzagate have centered around an organized crime ring run out of galleries like the one in question, along with instances of galleries in places like Berlin, New York City, Oakland and especially London.
Per Wikipedia: Major donors to PFAW include George Soros' Open Society Institute, the Miriam G. and Ira D. Wallach Foundation, the Bauman Foundation, and the Evelyn and Walter Haas Jr. Fund.
More from the Salon article:
Jared Holt helped lead the pressure campaign to get Infowars booted from Spotify, Facebook and other platforms
The timing isn't random. In recent weeks, a group of progressive activists has dialed up efforts to pressure these distribution platforms to drop Infowars. That pressure, which comes at a time when court proceedings against Jones have finally begun in earnest, created the momentum that led to this decision. This has been mentioned in passing in much of the coverage, but these folks deserve much more credit and recognition for the work they've been doing in trying to fight right-wing disinformation campaigns. Salon spoke recently with Jared Holt, a researcher from Right Wing Watch, a project of People for the American Way. Holt's work has been instrumental in getting social media and other internet platforms to give Infowars the boot. This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.
Patricia Bauman profile
Bauman and Alefantis
Bauman Foundation Board - Includes David Brock
She is Chair of the Natural Resources Defense Council Action Fund, Co-Chair of the Brennan Center for Justice, a Trustee of Montefiore Medical Center, a board member of NEO Philanthropy and Working America Education Fund, and a Manager of Catalist LLC.
Her husband and fellow board member H.H. John Landrum Bryant is the former head of the National Park Foundation and is the Prince of Monteagudo, a former medieval enclave in Spain. The Monteagudo family appears to be one of the most important bloodlines for Spanish Royalty.
ISGP-Studies even found that Bryant was sued for sexual harassment by a former housekeeper.
In the introduction to David Brock's book Killing the Messenger, both Patricia Bauman and Alefantis are thanked.. That book launch famously included James Alefantis snapping a photo inside Lynn Forrester de Rothschild's apartment.
While they aren't the only moneyed group behind this planned suppression of "conspiracy research", these ties show the motives are quite clear.

Not surprised.
First, he denies pizzagate rather than defend himself! Think of the good he could have done! All he had to do is prove that the evidence presented a reasonable scenario in which to ask questions. Look at that Instagram account ... they could spend a year on that evidence alone.
Now he wants Trump to make him co-running mate by using ALEX JONES' NAME IS THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN? Yeah, fucking, right, you fucking POS!!! He's also whining about appearing before congress! Then there's him taking shill/disinfo specialist Craig Sawyer under his wing ... and a host of other problems that project ''CIA ASSET'' on that ignoble brow.
Fuck off, AJ! Why would all the big online giants ban you, eh? Just a random choice I'd say. But it gives this POS a nice big platform in which to spew lies, but now we have this. So at least we know, and you can't tell anyone you weren't warned.

Prove that the evidence presented a reasonable scenario in which to ask questions. You mean like Ben Swann, who was successfully promoting truth in journalism on TV? I have seen no flaws in his presentation, and he got shut down.
notagame ago
If I understand your point, nothing makes any difference. So why is AJ saying anything? And why is he trying to involve others in a futile effort.
If this isn't your point, could you please rephrase what is because this is the way I took it.
YogSoggoth ago
Sorry, I type what I think, and don't explain sometimes. I have thought AJ was controlled opposition many years ago (pre-PG). I am not suggesting that he might have turned on his controllers also. As far as I can tell, Ben Swann is the real deal, and really got shut down. Always came across as someone who was not compromised.
notagame ago
I agree about Swann. He did have that genuine feel about him. There are a few around like that ... where they give off an authenticity. Very sorry about the ridiculous banning and hope something can be done. Not sure what hate speech they cited him for, but if it's frivolous ... and they're keeping him from earning a living, fight it. Just bring along the tweets of RR, Leong, Cusack, King and others. Then have them explain why the lefties still have their accounts when they use unbelievably reprehensible language and spew venom/hate.
YogSoggoth ago
I am thinking that Swann was given orders, and is not happy about it. Doubt he is compromised.
notagame ago
I don't think so, but I've been wrong before.
YogSoggoth ago
Everyone has, but it does not add up. He was the only semi mainstream guy allowed to do Ron Paul. He was the only one to even dare to do PG. He was always there on real issues. Do you think he is controlled opposition? Were that true, he would be the best at that. I have seen zero evidence.
notagame ago
Do I think he's controlled opposition? No. Absolutely not. Never even occurred to me, but like I said, I've been wrong.
He always seemed genuine.

All comes out in the wash. Gets stuuck in the filter or de plumbing. If they had one speck of dirt on him, you answer.
