Reporters tweeted that the Infowars reporter appears to have been given a temporary day pass and not a permanent one.

Alex Jones, the host of the radio program "Infowars," has alleged multiple times that the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., that killed 20 children was a hoax.

In April, the Newtown Board of Education wrote a letter to President Trump asking him to speak out against Jones.

Jones in the past has also accused the U.S. government of being involved in the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
