Take a Step

Mark Bankston (plaintiff’s lawyer in musk’s defamation case) really has his Twitter header as the key moment in his Alex jones case lol. Good for him if I had a moment like that I might too

not me realizing that people are…defending alex jones? for “calling out” ye west? you know that he didn’t “call out” ye for being antisemitic, right. he did it because ye was being Too Obviously Antisemitic. ye killed his plausible deniability.

alex jones has made his living for over a decade on walking RIGHT up to that line and not overtly crossing it. he goes off about a “globalist conspiracy” every time he’s on air. he talks about the “jewish mafia.” ye just walked right over the line and said “Hitler was a good guy actually.” alex jones isn’t horrified at what ye said. it’s that ye said it OUT LOUD, ON AIR, WHILE STREAMING.

i refuse to live in an era of rehabilitation of alex fucking jones. jesus christ you guys.

What really elevates this is that's Jones's lawyer.

I prefer this picture of the rule:

It looks like it’s straight out of a sitcom

I just looked up Judge Gamble’s website to confirm a suspicion I’ve been harboring since yesterday, and I’m pleased to announce—the the surprise of no one, I’m sure—that Her Honor does in fact have teenage sons.

Alex Jones explained for non USAmericans:

Alex Jones is an infamous radio conspiracy theorist who has been a persistent element of American politics for the last 30 years. His radio show, Infowars, uses the tagline "tomorrow's news today" as Alex claims his information comes from a pantheon of secret sources within the nonexistent shadow government.

Infowars got it's big break in the early 2000s with 9/11. Alex claims to have predicted the attack beforehand, even though Osama Bin Laden had been all but outright stating his desire to commit a terrorist attack for months if not years beforehand. Alex also claimed that the UN was behind 9/11, claiming that it was done to destabilize the dollar. The Infowars guest on the day of 9/11 was actually Joe Rogan. That's not actually relevant, it's just a fun fact.

Throughout the years, Alex has been a dangerous radicalizing voice in America. He has claimed that every mass tragedy like a terrorist attack or school shooting has been a false flag, generally stating that the tragedy was engineered by the government to strip Americans of their gun rights. Recent court documents reveal that at its peak, Infowars was making 800,000$ profits a day.

He has been sued before, but has generally managed to skirt by on settlements and technicalities.

In 2012, a 20 year old named Adam Lanza shot and killed 26 people in the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Alex claimed that no children died, and that the grieving parents and community members were actually paid actors. He has said equally reprehensible shit in the past, and nothing has come of it. But this time, Alex didn't stop there. He has been harassing the victims for nearly eight years now, claiming that the parents were agents of the deep state, even going so far as to dox the public addresses of the parents of the victims, and even send "reporters" (read, dangerous armed white supremacists) to their houses. The entire time he was doing this, he was running commercials for his brand of vitamin supplements.

The victims of his harassment are currently suing Alex for defamation. The trial is not going well for Alex. Alex is currently on lawyer 12. Alex's lawyers have proved themselves to be so incompetent, so unprepared, so blatantly disrespectful to the American legal system, that the judge has handed down what's called a "default judgement". Which essentially means "the court has decided that even if you are actually innocent, the court will legally be considering you guilty because of your rampant disrespect for the legal process." A default judgement was described by one of the lawyers as "approximately as rare as a football game being called on account of unicorns."

The firm that took the case for the victims side is doing so for free. They have extensively studied Alex and his history, and are currently in the middle of what could be described as a surgical disassembly.

On August 3rd, Alex's lawyer turned over nearly 2 years of Alex's phone records. These texts contain DEEPLY incriminating evidence. The victims lawyers asked Alex's lawyer "hey, we can use these right? Like these are admissible?" And either out of ignorance, incompetence, or potentially even intentionally, Alex's lawyer said yes.

It doesn't stop there.

Alex was instrumental to the January 6th coup attempt that happened here recently. One of the victims lawyers was heard on a hot mic saying that they intended to turn the evidence over to law enforcement, heavily implying that Alex may have implicated himself in some nigh-treasonous crime.

For those wondering what happened:

Holy shit

I don't think Alex can realistically sue his lawyers for this either, because even if he did, any winnings would be considered an asset that he would have to pay to the sandy hook victims that he defamed.

Sorry I'm not reacting more to this. The few legal experts I follow on Twitter keep getting questions like "hey what is the procedure when something like this happens?" And the answer pretty universally seems to be "This has never happened before."

The hits keep coming

The texts are probably going to be part of the subpoena for the J6 committee.

I need every last one of you charging your JO crystals as hard as possible. Because now there is a small but very real chance that Alex could end up with a treason charge.
