    Unclear what is going on over at InfoWars, but the website has been unavailable all day (possible DDoS attack). Now users are being greeted by this message when they visit.pic.twitter.com/1PTTAZU3pU

        His use of the word "raw" is the most disturbing part of this tweet.

        Ploy. I do not believe this one bit. He is fabricating an attack to further his tin foil conspiracy garbage. I 100% believe this is staged.

        In other words, the website was never under attack. It's nice that they mention these other sites so that we can all blacklist them tho.

        If you are being attacked why give them more targets?

        They're probably infecting visitors with malware or something.

        Purposely done by their IT people. It’s a cheap ploy for attention.
