Alex Jones tested Facebook's willingness to defend its community standards after the InfoWars conspiracy theorist accused Robert Mueller of pedophilia and came close to threatening the special counsel in a livestream from the social network.

In a Monday rant, Jones said Mueller raped children, as well as protected others who did so. He provided no evidence for the allegation, which was streamed live on his personal Facebook page. The page has 1.7 million likes.
