Infowars staffers are sharing footage of the company's founder Alex Jones risking his life to save children from getting smuggled at the U.S.-Mexico border. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the video has raised serious questions about whether it's genuine or staged.

In the video, Jones and other Infowars crew members begin berating an alleged staff member of the Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley for having a van full of young children, initially for not having "car seats." Jones and crew then demand the driver identify himself and Jones accuses the driver of "smuggling" the children. The driver indicates, "they’re going to check the COVID over there," Police arrive at the scene and the children can be seen getting out of the van as the video ends.

The Catholic Charities organization provides relief to immigrants who have crossed the border and need assistance. Nearby is a COVID-19 testing site which they use to test all new migrants.

Some conservatives on Twitter were quick to praise Jones for his apparent bravery. Even Keemstar jumped in to say Jones "deserves some praise" if he "really" saved children.

Alex Jones saving children from human trafficking is the best thing I’ve seen all year.

I definitely didn't have Alex Jones legitimately throwing himself in front of a van to rescue kids being smuggled on my 2021 bingo card.

You may not like him, but it's an important video to see.

However, due to Jones' reputation as a conspiracy theorist, many more were inclined to believe the video was staged. Many pointed out how bizarre it was that Jones happened to have a camera crew with him during this supposedly heroic act.

… Anyone else find it strange that Alex Jones apparently had an entire camera crew on hand ready with boom mics and everything going when he just happens to see a child smuggling operation in broad daylight?

Alex Jones just so happens to always have a camera crew the same way WWE always just so happens to have a camera crew.

Ah yes. Man trafficking children out in broad daylight on a busy street and Alex Jones just happens to walk up with his camera crew. This must be legit

Others pointed out that, even if the video was genuinely not staged, Jones and his crew made a massive scene over what is at worst a seatbelt violation.

Alex Jones is still trending? I didn't know people were that stringent on upholding seatbelt laws.

alex jones admitted in court multiple times hes full of shit and no reasonable person would think his shits real yet here we are, there was no child trafficking, literally the only thing illegal was the kids were in the back without a seatbelt

Snopes labeled the question "Did Alex Jones Stop Smugglers From Illegally Transporting Children at Border?" false, writing, "There is no evidence that the video shows anything other than what it appears to present: Jones and his cohorts surrounding and yelling at a car driven by a charity worker who was taking immigrant children a short distance to be screened for COVID-19."
