I'm seeing a lot of folks on here commenting that Alex Jones deserves bad things "because he slandered those people". Clearly some Freepers (who should know better) are believing what they see on the news, and it would be a good idea to get some better info out there. I've got no experience of listening to AJ, but the railroading is obvious. I've only seen short clips from both trials, and it's clear to me (*not* an attorney) that those judges are biased and out of control. This isn't just about AJ- This is about our courts working properly. They could do this to any of us.
I haven’t followed it, but it seems to me that this is about a guy who expressed his opinion about events being reported in the news.
And now he has to pay about $1B because people didn’t like his opinions.
Is this America?
I’ve got a lot of rat killin’ to do today, so I won’t be around to respond to anybody until this evening- but there’s really nothing I need to respond to- it’s all in the video. If you haven’t been watching Viva and Barnes, you will find it a breath of fresh air. They wrote the TOS for Rumble, and they are now doing all of their live political discussions on Rumble.
The ambulance chasers have said on record that the trials are not about money but about taking his platform from him and ensuring he can never rebuild it.
Jones was the proof-of-concept of erasing people from social media. After him, they could erase anybody.
The same judges who have placed January 6th “insurrectionists” in solitary confinement without bail or trial for almost three years are using him as proof-of-concept of using a weaponized judiciary to destroy anyone who speaks against any official narrative.
Once again, Alex Jones is the canary in the coal mine.
bkmk
Yep. In fact, one of the Jurors in Austin asked “can we use this against *election deniers* now?” That tells you exactly where Leftists want to take this.
After all the non stop lies in the corporate media about every single thing for years and years now, I am amazed any Freepers would buy their line about anything. I suspect some of them are just DU trolls.
Clearly Leftist lawyers put this case together after other Leftists put up the funding. They then sought out Left leaning jurisdictions with corrupt courts. The judges gave ridiculous leeway for discovery to the point of allowing discovery to be used for harassment purposes (NINE DAYS of depositions and that still somehow wasn’t enough???). Then the Leftist judges claimed that Jones had not cooperated in discovery and issued the most extreme sanction that he be denied a trial by jury. Then the carefully selected Leftist juries came back with damage awards that are illegal in Texas and damage awards that are more than TEN TIMES the amount awarded to anyone anywhere ever in the history of the world.
The Leftist plaintiff’s lawyers even openly said this was about trying to silence Jones.
If you can’t see how this is the standard Leftist weaponization of the courts to go after a political opponent just like the Left has weaponized everything else they possibly could to lash out at political opponents, I don’t know what to tell you. If they can get away with this OF COURSE they will do it again - just like Big Tech did when they colluded to deplatform and silence Alex Jones prior to doing that on a grand scale toward Conservatives.
Well, Viva & Barns use to be fun & educational to watch then they weren’t. Viva has quite a distain for Trudeau. Will Florida be his new home?
it was a chauvin trial
Just watching this now. Barnes lays out how the Leftists ran this show trial to screw over Jones.
Youtube deletes his videos. Then Plaintiffs demand deleted videos which Youtube has deleted. Jones is held liable for failing to produce the videos that now no longer exist.
Plaintiffs demanded Google analytics...which Infowars did not do and did not have. Then Jones was held liable for not producing this data which he never had to begin with.
This is AFTER plaintiffs forum shopped for a Leftist jurisdiction by adding a Connecticut Plaintiff to the group and AFTER that Connecticut plaintiff was dismissed from the group.....meaning this trial no longer had any tie to Connecticut and should have been moved to a federal court.
And....why was Jones - the defendant - having to produce discovery on the anti SLAP motion? It is almost always the PLAINTIFFS who have to provide discovery to show that their case is valid, not the defendant on an anti SLAP motion.
Starting to get it yet?
Viva and Barnes are always very entertaining and informative. Barnes and Baris’ weekly show What Are the Odds? is very informative as well.
Why can’t the exact same legal theories used in this scam trial, be used against every last Presstitute, media person and government employee for Deliberately Spreading all the Lies about Russia, Russia, Russia, and BANKRUPT ALL OF THEM??
Mostly because the Rule of Law means nothing. The Justice system is all about persecuting political enemies of the Left.
What he did gives the left and Democrats ammo to try to silence voices they disagree with and points that refute under the false premise that it is disinformation.
Jones deserves no sympathy and needs to go away. There are plenty of honest, articulate and credible conservatives to take his place.
This is the false corporate media narrative.
It’s pretty clear that you didn’t listen to this. Seems odd to encounter a Freeper who trusts the “news” media to be truthful.
