Jones has been making up sensationalist lies about people for decades.
That’s not why he’s being punished.
The system didn’t go after him for doing crisis actor click bait. He committed his Sandy Hook civil offenses over 10 years ago.
They are harassing him because he made a business decision in 2016 to support Trump and flirt with white populism.
After the midterms in November, you’re going to see an aggressive campaign by the GOP and others to start purging Trump-loyalist influencers and the alt-light.
Jones is only the first domino to fall.
If you’re a socially or politically proscribed person, you’re better off contracting advisors and representing yourself in court.
The money you waste on expensive trial attorneys who are often working against your interests would be better used for funding research and private investigators.
“Mr. Jones’s legal team apparently sent two years’ worth of text messages to the families’ lawyers by accident, and they appeared to catch the Infowars host in a number of contradictions.
Mr. Jones had said for years that he had searched his phone for texts about the Sandy Hook cases and found none, but the families’ lawyers saw many. The lawyers also presented financial records that contradicted Mr. Jones’s claim that he was bankrupt.”

The jury is going to award these families hundreds of millions of dollars and make it impossible for Alex to operate any kind of business (at least in the United States) for the rest of his life.
