A Texas judge pressed the pause button on The Onion's winning bid for Alex Jones' Infowars network over questions about the bidding process and what the provocateur calls a 'rigged, fake auction.'
The satirical news publication said the bid was sanctioned by the families of Sandy Hook Elementary victims who won a $1.4 billion defamation lawsuit against Jones in 2022.
But Judge Christopher M. Lopez announced during a status conference in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas that the meeting would be held to discuss whether the people running the auction ran 'a fair and full process.'
I glad Judge Lopez stepped in. The whole thing reeks of malfeasance
ReplyDeleteThe reason? A Left-wing entity didn't make the purchase. In other words, they NEED control.
ReplyDeleteI read that the auction would not result in the families getting any money. Chiefly because the man Alex Jones is the brand. Sell his studio and what not, yet the brand continues. There are laws against humans as chattel.
ReplyDeleteThis whole affair is bullshit. $1.4 billion judgement because Jones' free speech rights "traumatized" the parents - especially if Jones really believed it was all a hoax. That works out to $70 million per child! An absolute travesty of justice. If anyone deserves to sue, it's Jones - for a violation of his constitutional rights.
ReplyDeleteIf "traumatization" is the criteria, the families of the victims murdered by illegals should have the same opportunity to sue the federal government for $billions. And so on...
Even if the verdict was just, the award was not - similar to the $450 million Trump was fined in New York.
This has got to stop!
Just wait till the lawyers raid that cookie jar with inflated billible hours and expenses...
