Ah, a federal judge. On to the next higher court then? I imagine that once it reaches the SCOTUS, Jones will get it back.
I sincerely doubt SCOTUS gives a shit about Jones. They are above the petty squabbles of the hoipolloi. They only get out of bed to tear away people’s fundamental rights and abet fascism.
The absolute best part is that, with Sandy Hook families involved, they probably bought Infowars with Alex Jones’ own debt.
When the judgement was announced, Jones laughed, thinking they’d never collect any of it, but when using it to buy Jones’ own assets, it’s as good as gold.
They will do as they are told.
Well, the majority of them, anyway.
If some billionaire or other wants this to be decided by SCOTUS it will be.
So, Mr. Musk is responsible not only for the alleged misinformation of Infowars, but is responsible for ALL the criminal schemes committed at X?
Agreed, though I think that would have to take the form of active support, a Gawker-like situation, with some billionaire overtly taking up Jones’ mantle rather than just passive support.
As soon as the judges started sticking his oar in I had a feeling this would end this way.
Being vindicated in pessimism is no fun, though.
So much for the invisible hand of the market or whatever
More like the invisible turd in the peanut butter…
Like everything else (e.g., individualism, free speech) from conservative shit bags: No, not like that!
Sandy Hook families reach settlement over Alex Jones’ bankruptcy
- Families previously disagreed about Infowars sale
- New deal gives TX families $4 million, plus 25% of future sales
- CT families received far larger judgments in earlier lawsuits
Dumbest obvious shell game, totally on-brand for MAGA:
I have heard it said that there are two unequal tiers of Justice® in the U.S.; perhaps three tiers starting in 2025.
The new tier–for the politically-connected in-group, whether part of the 1% or not–will be the pawns of the 1% while not occupying that obscene stratum. They will be the public-facing vanguard of “it’s ok to do it if you are a [MAGA] Republican or blessed by us” (as I have heard it claimed by Alex Jones fanbois that the man is a Libertarian).
Yeah American right-libertarian they are usually one step removed from fascists. Christopher “Crying Nazi” Cantwell’s first big media apprence was as member of Free Keene Squad on the Colbert Report.
