In Memory Of Jamie White: Liberty's Voice Taken Way Too Soon

In Memory Of Jamie White: An Infowarrior Taken Way Too SoonUPDATE: Jamie was shot in the arm and through the neck through his carotid artery. According to Jamie’s sister “I don’t believe it was targeted,” White’s sister Kelly Kneale told The Independent. “He was shot by a person or persons trying to break into his car for the second time.” Kelly explained that her brother’s car had first been broken into when he was home for Christmas.Around midnight on March 9, 2025, in a very shady part of East Austin. The city recorded its eighth homicide of 2025, a brutal murder that claimed the life of Jamie White, a prominent longtime INFOWARS writer. In the words of fellow writer Adan Salazar, one of Jamie’s closest friends, Jamie grew up in Stowe, Ohio outside of Cleveland with a Catholic upbringing. He was obsessed with writing. A writer’s writer. He crafted phenomenal articles and had an impeccable eye for news. Jamie was influenced by Steve Bannon, Ian Fleming. Loved Bond films and the Bond girls. And he was a fantastic piano player.Jamie had been writing a Sci Fi novel. He was a fan of the DUNE series, Game Of Thrones and Black Death Metal. Jamie was a cool dude. He had worked in a psych ward before coming to Infowars and had written articles for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, that is still to be verified, but I wouldn’t doubt it.Jamie liked horror films. The Witch, Nosferatu, LongLegs. Loved Mayday a show about plane crashes. He was big into aviation, gold and silver investing, and a huge fan of Peter Schiff. Jamie had his own style. He was a class act and a positive and kind presence. So far the details of both the murder and the suspect(s) are very murky. We do know that Jamie suffered severe trauma that led to his death in a hospital 18 minutes after APD responded to the scene within 2 minutes. There are no suspects officially, but there are some suspects according to friends of Jamie that were on the scene. And the officer expressed confidence that it would be solved.The Austin Police Department (APD) has confirmed an ongoing investigation but has released few specifics, noting only that the incident involved “major trauma” and urging the public to provide tips via their homicide line at 512-974-8477. This killing marks a grim milestone in a year that has already seen Austin’s homicide count climb, with the city tracking such incidents through an interactive map updated by KXAN. White’s death, occurring just hours after his final social media activity, a repost at 11:35 PM CDT, has sent shockwaves through his audience and colleagues, who describe him as a dedicated journalist and a “good man.”The connection to InfoWars runs deep. As you may know, Infowars has been under unyielding lawfare. So as conspiratorial as it may sound, the suspect could range from a psychotic homeless drug addict to a serial criminal to a more nefarious character targeting Infowars employees. Add to that possibility the fact thatJamie along with others including Tucker Carlson and Roger Waters were on a Ukrainian Hit List that is tied to the U.S. State Department. We don’t know anything yet as I record this. Oddly enough Jamie’s last post on X was a repost of Elon Musk asking “Yeah, why are liberals so violent? Legacy media propaganda is a major part of the problem.”Alex Jones framed White’s murder as a direct consequence of policies enacted by Travis County District Attorney José Garza. Garza’s Soros fueled approach has unleashed a wave of lawlessness in Austin. Transforming the city into a cesspit of chaos. Plea deals for violent offenders and a reluctance to prosecute is the way that Democratic Socialist Garza handles his business. His feigned negligence has cost lives and the City millions. And it just cost America a true voice for Liberty.Jones vowed that White’s “tragic death will not be in vain.” As the investigation unfolds, and I want to second that sentiment. Jamie would want us to seek answers, solutions, and a resolution.So let’s take a look at Austin. Here is a little history on the transformation of a once lazy yet creative peaceful mecca to the transformation into a crime riddled overpopulated burned out hellhole.Crime in Austin, Texas, has undergone significant changes since 1984. In the past, Austin’s crime was an isolated issue. Mostly relegated to the East side. Women could go to bars on their own. There may have been an occasional fist fight amongst frat boys or drunks. But most Austinites pre 2000’s regarded Dallas, Houston and San Antonio as dangerous crime riddled cities. Austin was safe and it was alot of fun.Austin was a liberal University town. It was a place where American culture was casually and at the same time intensely celebrated. Texas culture simmered on a hot stove that fed the world its own unique blend of Outlaw Country, Texas Blues, and Psychadelic Punk. The problem was, it got incredibly popular and all of the wrong people seized control of a City Council feeding off of the cash cow now drawing in tech companies and tourism on the heels of the irresistable Texas culture. The secret was out. The Austin City Limits Festival and SXSW and the beauty of Central Texas drew many from out of state. Blowing up the population and diluting the very culture that attracted them in the first place. And then it all went down hill. Crime exploded, while the City Council defunded and defanged the Austin Police Department. The city began coasting on a reputation that was long gone as socialist DEI policies altered the heat and soul of the City and its culture as the Council dabbled in corruption. No audits as of today to explain just how corrupt. Spending millions of tax dollars to house the homeless with zero results. Leaving many asking where all the money went.In recent years, Austin’s property crime rate reached 34 per 1,000 residents, giving residents a 1 in 30 chance of victimization. As well as the highest rates nationally for motor vehicle theft (1 in 140). This contrasts with the 1980s, when property crime, while present, did not exhibit the same intensity relative to population size. Most Austinites didn’t even think about it….ever. Nowadays, data from 2021 shows property crime outpacing violent crime as a driver of Austin’s total crime rate of 39 per 1,000 residents, a trend that has persisted and intensified over decades, fueled by urban sprawl and economic disparities. Home prices and rent skyrocketing made Austin unaffordable to most. Its likely that this is the rot that contributed to what Jamie encountered.The COVID-19 pandemic, beginning in 2020, coincided with sharp crime spikes, including a 33% homicide increase from 2019 to 2020 and an 80% jump in 2021, mirroring national trends linked to economic stress. Additionally, Austin’s population boom, from 447,000 in 1984 to over 1 million today, has outpaced police staffing, with the APD facing shortages exacerbated by a $150 million budget cut in 2020, leading to slower response times (averaging eight minutes for emergencies). Garza: The Soros Stooge Poisoning The Heart Of TexasEnter José Garza, Hero of Antifa and Democratic Socialists. Soros’ handpicked Travis County District Attorney, swept into office in 2020 on a tidal wave of post-George Floyd outrage and a cool half-million from Soros-linked PACs. Garza promised to “reimagine” criminal justice, code for letting killers and rapists waltz free while slapping cops with indictments like they’re parking tickets. The result? A city drowning in chaos, with homicides spiking 90% from 2020 to 2021 and victims’ families screaming into the void as Garza hands out plea deals like candy at a parade. This isn’t reform; it’s a revolving door for the depraved, and Austinites are paying the price in blood.Take Conny Branham—her son Chris, a 26-year-old dad, was beaten, kidnapped, and shot dead in a cornfield by a gang of five. Garza’s response? Plea deals for the killers, with two dodging serious time and the shooter getting a cushy 35 years instead of the chair. Then there’s Kristina Byington, blindsided when Garza tried to spring her cousin’s murderer, Allen Andre Causey, free via the Innocence Project, never mind his confession to beating Anita Byington to death in ’92. Garza’s office doesn’t even bother notifying victims’ kin about hearings; they’re too busy “addressing root causes” while motor vehicle thefts hit 1-in-140 odds and property crime makes Austin a national laughingstock. This is Soros’ vision: a justice system where criminals smirk and victims hire lawyers just to keep up.The cherry on this dystopian sundae? Garza’s got the gall to call Austin “one of the safest communities in the country” while the Austin Police Department bleeds officers, 75 prosecutors have bailed since he took over, fed up with his anti-cop vendetta. He’s indicted 21 cops since 2021, mostly over 2020 riot responses, only to drop 17 charges when the heat got too high. Meanwhile, a guy with seven DUIs walks on bond after mowing down two people. Critics like CLEAT’s Charley Wilkison call him “as dangerous as they come,” and they’re not wrong—Garza’s sidestepped court orders to ram through cop prosecutions, all while violent crime surges and Soros’ cash keeps the machine humming. Austin’s a petri dish for this globalist experiment, and the data doesn’t lie: crime is way up since ’84, and Garza’s tenure is a neon sign flashing “criminals welcome.”St Pattys Cancelled In Lieu Of DEIAnd just to give you an example of the knife in the heart of culture by the Austin City Council. In a surprising turn of events, the City of Austin decided to withdraw its longstanding support for the St. Patrick’s Day Festival in 2025, citing a shift in priorities toward Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. Historically, the city provided cultural funding and logistical assistance to the festival, which has been a staple of Central Texas’s celebration of Irish heritage for over two decades. This pivot has left organizers of the St. Patrick’s Day Festival scrambling to secure alternative funding, raising questions about the future of one of Austin’s most cherished annual events.The St. Patrick’s Day Festival in Austin began modestly in the late 1990s, organized by the Celtic Cultural Center, and evolved into a major event by the early 2000s, drawing thousands to Jourdan-Bachman Pioneer Farms for live Celtic music, Irish dance, and traditional fare like fish and chips and corned beef. By 2010, it had earned a reputation as the largest St. Patrick’s Day celebration in Central Texas, featuring international acts like Réalta and local favorites such as the Silver Thistle Pipes and Drums. The festival’s family-friendly atmosphere, complete with activities like Gaelic language lessons and bumper soccer, made it a unique blend of cultural education and entertainment—until the city’s funding cuts in 2023 forced a hiatus, a precursor to this year’s complete withdrawal of support.This is the city that Jamie White resided in. And Jamie was just doing all he could to make the world a better place. He never sought the spotlight. He certainly wasn’t seeking fortune. Infowars employees have been in a cost of living holding pattern for years due to the ongoing legal hijacking of Infowars. He, like many of us at Infowars just dug into the trenches of truth doing the work that our forefathers inspired us to do. Selflessly and with a real and undeniable vision for the future. But, Jamie had something special about him, he was a truly kind soul. A rare quality these days. Jamie’s passing will not go unnoticed. For me its the final straw. Jamie White 1990-2025.
