Alex Jones

It sounds like the lawyer was confirming that Alex Jones said the photo was there, not releasing that information himself.

my brain broke a little on the "sending a picture of your wife to Roger Stone" part

when you're downriver, you'll take anything you can get

Are we at peak Alex Jones-defamation trials yet?

Never enough.

FINISH HIM

Popped in a bit, and no surprise that the Jones attorney already seems to be pissing off the judge.

lol she literally just yelled at him like a child.

for the record

makes good points

Seems to be doing OK.

I really want to see Jones' head explode a la Scanners. Seems imminent.

All the supplements in the world couldn't stop the progress of Bubba Harkonnen's degenerative disease.

I had to research that reference and now I can't stop laughing.

Mattei: Even though Alex Jones is not a journalist, he tells his audience that he will deliver the truth in journalism, correct?

Paz: That’s also a tag line, yes

On cross-examination today, Alex Jones is confronted on cross that he has been calling the judge (sitting next to him) a “tyrant” on his show during the trial, while showing lasers coming out of her eyes. pic.twitter.com/kjd5rcZyjM

Awk-ward

as you do

Judge just threatened Jones and his attorney with contempt. Basically Jones would be answering a question, and just keep rambling so loudly and quickly beyond the scope of the question that his attorney couldn't object fast enough to stop Jones from spouting off. When the attorney explained the problem, the judge basically threw her hands up and said there is no way she can stop him from spouting off (which she has warned him about), let alone long enough to address each objection. In the end she essentially said, control your client, control yourself, or you both risk a contempt hearing.

Infowars founder Alex Jones lashed out as he testified in a tense Connecticut courtroom Thursday as part of a defamation trial that will determine how much he should pay to the relatives of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school massacre.

The far-right conspiracy theorist and host, known for emotional outbursts on his shows, appeared frustrated at several points and said he would not make further apologies for popularizing the false claim that the shooting in Newtown, Conn., was a hoax.

“Is this a struggle session? Are we in China?” Jones asked, referring to Maoist rallies where people were publicly humiliated, after an attorney for the plaintiffs, Chris Mattei, pointed out the victims’ family members in the courtroom. “I’ve already said I’m sorry hundreds of times, and I’m done saying I’m sorry.”

...In the hours-long session, Jones used one of Mattei’s questions to plug the address of a website accepting cryptocurrency contributions. He also answered “no” to the question of whether his credibility was the most important thing to his audience, insisting that his focus was on “crushing the globalists.”

“Alex Jones is probably the most unsympathetic litigant I’ve seen in quite a long period of time,” said Jessica Levinson, a law professor at Loyola Marymount University.

...In one exchange, Mattei accused Jones of putting targets on Sandy Hook parents’ backs, in an apparent reference to his claim that they were crisis actors. The attorney referenced parents in the courtroom, calling them “real people,” to which Jones responded: “Just like all the Iraqis you liberals killed and loved.”

“You’re unbelievable. You switch on emotions, on and off, when you want. You’re just ambulance chasing,” Jones added.

Breaking: Absolutely astronomical figures in this InfoWars lawsuit out of Connecticut.

Alex Jones owes $229 million to just the first three plaintiffs, all family members of Sandy Hook victims.

There are nine more plaintiffs to go.

🥳🥳🥳

Scant justice but I’ll take it

the total is over one billion now, which would bankrupt Infowars. I haven’t followed closely - how many more rounds of appeals do they have before they actually have to pay that much and go bankrupt? Is this actually happening or is this a vision of something good that could theoretically happen but in the distant future I will learn did not happen?

Don’t worry, Peter Thiel and numerous billionaires we’ve never heard of will pass the hat around and raise the money.

if only we had taken the "billionaires shouldn't exist" argument more seriously!

*shakes hand at heavens, rends garments*

When this is all ya got

Alex Jones after his billion dollar damages verdict: "They want to scare us away from question Uvalde or Parkland. We're not going away. We're not going to stop."

He's now selling "vitamineral fusion" from the InfoWars store.

they're suppositories, pack of 40 in a bottle for $4,000 each

which supplements can help me increase the intensity of the already intense tan on my balls?

Mmm...glorious.

If Alex jones pays for lying shouldn’t every celebrity pushing vaccines pay too ?

— M.I.A. (@MIAuniverse) October 12, 2022

M.I.A. sounds about as sharp as Jones' lawyers.

Ew. I haven't been keeping up with her, didn't realize she was a straight up ding-dong nowadays.

I’ll feel better when Jones is completely destitute.

But this feels pretty good.

Paper planes can’t melt steel beams.

She's supposedly also a born again Christian now

jfc @ mia

All we need now is for B.O.B. to become a Flat Earther

Oh wait

I love a lot of her shit, but MIA has always been hella dumb. Don’t think I’ve read/seen an interview with her that didn’t deflate what she seemed to be doing artistically.

jeez, mia. i don't have a "never have heroes" policy, i stick with "assume anyone you don't know is a complete asshole or box of rocks." so many worthless people also overcome injustice and hardship. reality is just that way i guess.

still, if what i heard about this Jones award being non-dischargeable in BK comes true-- HAHAHAHA LOOOOOLLLL YES! YES! YES YES YES!1!!!1111!!! you can live on thiel's yacht somewhere, harvesting the blood of abducted children to keep him young.

NB I DO NOT SUSPECT THIEL OF ABDUCTING CHILDREN FOR BLOOD. no matter what mia might have to say about the matter.

Actual Florida elected official right here. There is literally nobody and nothing the right won't embrace if it's something that offends liberals.

Alex Jones should be appointed as next President of the University of Florida—NOT Ben Sasse

— Rep. Anthony Sabatini (@AnthonySabatini) October 12, 2022

ok but that would actually be pretty funny

which is funny as in political attack ads during primary, Sabatini was basically called a RINO

I want someone to ask Sabatini, on camera and totally straight-faced, "Why?" Let him explain why he thinks Alex Jones would make a good university president. Sort of like when someone tells a racist joke in your presence, you can just look at them and say, "I don't get it. Explain it to me."

i think this is just his way of saying he's an FSU fan

I've never heard of Sabatini, but his track record of dead/failed/vetoed bills is impressive. Just about the only he managed to get passed was an act requiring the Governor to proclaim November 7 of each year as "Victims of Communism Day."

Hard for me to take any pride in being Italian after the last election in Italy, and Sabatini/DeSantis

Early life and education
Sabatini was born in Smithtown, New York, in 1988 and moved with his family to Florida the following year. In a high school photo, Sabatini and a friend were pictured in blackface. In his freshman year of college, he was photographed in brownface. He earned bachelor's degrees in philosophy and history from the University of Florida in 2012 and a Juris Doctor from the University of Florida Fredric G. Levin College of Law in 2017.
