this shit goes deeper than anyone can possibly imagine

That's...what....

BREAKING: Alex Jones guilty by default in ALL FOUR Sandy Hook defamation cases, granting a clean sweep for the families

— Elizabeth Williamson (@NYTLiz) November 15, 2021

guilty by default basically means he didn't show up, right?

Maybe he's dead

Murdered amirite?

deep state gay frog death squad came for him

murdered by his own vitamin supplements

i've barely been following this case (just because obvious villains almost always get away with it in the united states, as far as i can tell), but people are saying he's "only" going to go bankrupt, or something, as the punishment.

my question. can a bankrupt alex jones just go out and get funding from some horrible asshole and start up infowars2 the next week? or are people who are made bankrupt by being a lying piece of shit somehow prevented from selling fake medical products and advising their listeners to die via ignorance?

As much as I enjoy all the grim scenarios above, the real answer is that "because Mr. Jones refused to turn over documents ordered by the courts, including financial records, he was guilty by default".

maybe he refused to turn the papers over because he's dead

perhaps Alex Jones was a paid actor

I associate bankruptcy w payment sched for creditors/get in line, don't know if Sandy Hook plaintiffs would qualify--but if so, any new $ infusion could be subject for payment schedule.
Mainly, they may not need him any more---for instance, Tucker Carlson continues his roll w Jan. 6 false flag dickumentary project

NYT tweeter is GUILTY of not knowing that the word is liable, not guilty.

Alex Jones ripped off his mask this morning.

It was...

William Cooper.

he was with us all this time.

Fantastic--what a venal fuck. I hope he actually has to pay out.

(^That post is I guess from his ex-wife?)

hmm, let me check

@REALkellyjones

yes this checks out

I feel really bad for everyone connected to him in any way, particularly his children

and maybe he'll finally get in trouble or lose his show or his microphone. i don't think so, though. that doesn't happen anymore, as far as i can tell.

i think what really gets me is thinking about all the hundreds and hundreds of people connected to him that are dudes, that made money off of him, that knew exactly who he was and who he is hurting. they're all anonymous, i'm making them up. but they're dudes, obviously, and they got their cut. they won't go to court and no one will ever know their names. it's dumb to get all worked up over a vague idea. but all of it is also incredibly fucked up

Forget it, Karl. It's Jonestown.

All I know is, it’s time to spend all afternoon procuring dark web pharmaceuticals for my boys

In this Jonestown, the Kool-Aid has steriods

Business is good:

SCOOP: Despite Alex Jones' constant pleas that he needs the financial backing of his supporters to keep his empire afloat, the Infowars store made more than $165 million over a 3 year period, court records first obtained by HuffPost show.https://t.co/KjthLmZWgp

Dead? No...

According to Sunday's court filings, InfoWars listed its estimated assets in the range of $0-$50,000

Get fucked.

sure hope alex jones can survive!!!

An anonymous crypto-whale just sent over $1 million worth of #bitcoin to embattled Stop the Steal extremist Alex Jones.

Jones withdrew the money and quickly wiped the wallet from his website.@MeganSquire0 and myself with the scoop: https://t.co/EXeOYwMhqJ

The cosmos has become self-referential.

I strongly recommend Sebastian Murdock's coverage from the Austin trial for exact damages. It is both incredibly comedic and utterly fucking pathetic and tragic given what it involves. This tweet from today's thread says it all

On Infowars yesterday, Jones told his followers to come to the courthouse and protest what he called a "kangaroo court." No protesters are here.

— Sebastian Murdock (@SebastianMurdoc) July 27, 2022

As for today so far, the Infowars producer who is being questioned by the prosecution was supposed to have reviewed all the videos that are being brought forward in evidence, and clearly hasn't. Even the judge has ripped into her. And remember, Jones is already guilty by default, this is about the monetary damage level, and I am willing to bet they have just fucked themselves over even more now.

Fellow masochists can watch along here:

Alex Jones gets upset with me. Says I “pretend” to be a journalist. I remind him he’s literally on trial for his journalistic failures. He calls me a pirate. pic.twitter.com/Qqapkltj0M

— Sebastian Murdock (@SebastianMurdoc) July 27, 2022

Worth reading some transcripts of yesterday's testimony. oof. I mean, look at this clip:

Judge is NOT happy! - After the jury left, the judge confronted Owen Shroyer about being on the air with #AlexJones on Tues. He confirmed they talked about the trial. Judge asked him if defense informed him about the rule of witness sequestration. WATCH: pic.twitter.com/kM5O4GBw3E

— Cathy Russon (@cathyrusson) July 28, 2022

That chump on the left I saw described as "Owen Shroyer is an Infowars host who pushed the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, called for former President Barack Obama to be lynched, and is currently charged with unlawfully entering the Capitol on January 6, 2021, an action he likens to those of Jesus Christ and the Dalai Lama." Talk about a Bingo.

Today's follies covered via this thread

and we're back in court for day four of the damages trial to determine how much money Alex Jones will have to pay to the first of three Sandy Hook families who successfully sued him for defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress

Watching now, questions from jurors are brutal.

"First question - why are you?"

From the deposition of an Infowars employee

asked if there are some contexts more than others where accuracy is important, Daniels says over and over again that he doesn’t understand the question. Asked if there are any words in particular he doesn’t understand, he repeats and says “I don’t understand the question."

— dan solomon (@dansolomon) July 29, 2022

Good lord, the followup

attorney asks which stories require more vetting to determine their accuracy, Daniels reiterates that he doesn’t understand, says that the question “sounds like a riddle"

— dan solomon (@dansolomon) July 29, 2022

Can't Jones just denounce this Crisis Courtroom charade, insist the judge is a paid actor, and walk out a free man?

I'M BRIAN FELLOW

*head in hands*

xpost -- funny you should say, one of the jury questions to Shroyer, one of Jones's chief minions, was "Do you think the judge is a paid actor?" (And Shroyer had to say no, which I'm sure irritated him to have to do.)

Hope the U.S. Trustee brings this video to the next bankruptcy hearing and gets the petition dismissed. https://t.co/oWdfafQ7M7
