Love him or hate him, the US feral government's proxy war on free speech via Alex Jones should terrify and/or enrage you.

If they can get Alex Jones, they can get you.

“Alex Jones confirms that the highest bid for InfoWars at the Federal Auction was not accepted and they chose the lower bid from The Onion instead, likely to make sure he wouldn’t retain control. “

I thought that Elon floated the idea of buying InfoWars?

What role did the federal government play in parents of Sandy Hook victims suing Jones in a Texas court - and winning?

The buyers wasted their money.
Yes, InfoWars is a well known name, but without Alex Jones it isn't going to remain so.

Agree. All along the Left was trying to make an example of someone outspoken so the rest would cower in fear and act like Pence or Liz Cheney.

Same with trying to bankrupt Trump and make his court appeal out of reach since he’d be broke.

All these years of people doing the justice system lottery has led to this.

First I remember were unqualified applicants for firefighters in the City of Detroit who won $300,000 each in a settlement for being black and passed over, despite failing the physical and written tests.

Later hundreds of millions of dollars have been awarded to various weeping victims in court settlements.

And the case of the home invasion burglar who sued the homeowner for injuries from falling onto the kitchen counter as he entered through the skylight.
Defense lawyer wrote in favor of this case (fictionally mentioned in the movie Liar,Liar for cutting himself on the woman’s knife on the counter):

“...An 18-year-old man climbed onto a roof at a Redding, Calif., high school in 1982. He fell 27 feet through the skylight and was permanently disabled. His lawyers obtained a $260,000 up-front settlement with the school district’s insurer, plus $1,500 a month, for the rest of the man’s life. The settlement was ridiculed. But consider that the skylight had been painted over. It wasn’t visible.”

Is ‘The Onion’ a CIA surveillance storefront like Google, Farcebook, the OLD ‘Twitter’, Drudge, and so many other media outlets?

This seems a tad excessive. Makes me think Jones was right about a lot of what he was talking about if they decided to ruin his life over calling Sandy hook a false flag

It reminds one of the James O’Keefe situation.
His old outfit is nothing now.
Same will happen here.

Turns out The Onion made a fraudulent bid.

One of the requirements for bidding was to have the cash in the bank to pay immediately.

The Onion said they don’t have the money, but that they will get it from the one billion dollar judgement that Jones is supposed to pay.

This is completely illegal and defeats the purpose of Alex’s bankruptcy. The purpose of the bankruptcy is to discharge Jone’s obligation to pay the judgement. Never mind everything else, they want it both ways. They want to take his platform in bankruptcy, but they don’t want to discharge the judgement. They want to get everything he owns AND still get the judgement.

The judge was incredulous and said the sale was not valid.

Infowars still lives. Long live Infowars.

They wanted to take his name, steal his skin and masquerade as him, and make his life he’ll.

He is not going anywhere.

I like Harrison Smith and Owen Shroyer (who went to jail for Jan6). Jack Posobiac got his start from AJ.

He is not going anywhere. Too many people behind him.

Well perhaps it would be best not to spread outrageous, disgusting lies on a media platform about people who went through a horrific event in their lives and just expect them not to sue for defamation.

It is ridiculous to paint him as a victim. Defamation is not free speech. Never has been.

The judge overseeing Alex Jones’s Infowars case just ordered a hearing into how the Onion won the bidding after Alex’s lawyers alleged that the trustee overseeing the auction rigged it at the last minute to allow the Onion to win

“If they can get Alex Jones, they can get you.”

They’re not going to stop. They’re never going to stop. They’re going to double down, as Marxists always do... even if or when they’ve lost a battle. Their war continues....
