From the January article:
Since that obviously didn’t work, who knows what he’ll try next?
I think someone’s ass is in a big crack. Couldn’t happen to a finer human being.
And it wouldn’t’ve happened to a finer human being.
Too bad it took a private lawsuit to do it in this case.
How about “more deserving”?
Ah, I love good news on Day One of the year:
More at the link.
Maybe someone should send him a candy bar.
He attacked the parents of Noah Pozner.
Noah was six years old. His jaw and one hand were shot off.
Fuck all these Trumpies.
That hundred thousand wasn’t even a judgement. It was a contempt of court fine for showing up to depositions unbelievably unprepared and wasting everyone’s time.

The Pozners weren’t involved in this lawsuit. They sued *another *idiot.
Alex Jones was arrested for a DWI after a little family disturbance:
I’m schadenfreuding to the max over here! 
Too bad he didn’t end up in one of those police brutality videos
Why won’t they just arrest and lock these fuckers up for fraud???
Where do you think that news would show up: The omnibus police brutality thread or this one? I think for once board members might turn a blind eye to cops misbehaving.
Bumped, with an update: FBI Reportedly Probing Roger Stone's, Alex Jones' Possible Links To Capitol Violence [Video]
Bumping again - this link should be readable by everyone:
A superior court in Connecticut granted a sweeping victory to the families of eight people killed in a 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., suing the far-right broadcaster and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and his Infowars media outlet for defamation.
The ruling combines with three previous rulings in Texas to grant the families of 10 Sandy Hook shooting victims four victories in four defamation lawsuits against Mr. Jones.
The amount of the awards won’t be decided until next year, but I hope he has to sell everything he’s got, right down to the kitchen sink.
The question that I have is, given that failure to produce the required documents caused him to instantly lose all of the cases, why didn’t he produce them?
A couple of possible reasons might be that releasing his financials may have disclosed some criminal shadiness that would be worse for him than losing these civil cases, or that this way he loses on a technicality rather than on the merits of the case, so he can still claim that he was telling the truth. Also I guess it may be that if he thought it was likely that he was going to lose anyway, keeping his financials secret might make it more difficult to assign damages.
Anybody have any other ideas?
A delusional belief that the Justice system of the United States and the various States aren’t the boss of him?
He believed that Trump had, because of the mass appointment of right wing wackjobs to judgeships, given him a decent chance of getting away with it.
Bumped again for this deliciously tasty headline from the NY Times (probably paywalled): " Testify or Pay Up, Judge Tells Alex Jones in Sandy Hook Suit"
Sub-headline: “A Connecticut judge rejected the Infowars conspiracy theorist’s claim that he was too ill to sit for a deposition, and set a schedule of hefty fines.”
Some choice quotes:
A Connecticut judge, exasperated by the Infowars broadcaster Alex Jones’s “bad faith” failure to sit for a deposition in a lawsuit brought by the families of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims, ruled on Wednesday that he would be subject to escalating daily fines for future delays.
The judge, Barbara Bellis of Connecticut Superior Court, found Mr. Jones in contempt and ordered that he be fined $25,000 for the first weekday he fails to appear for testimony, beginning on Friday. For every day thereafter that he does not appear, the daily fine will increase by $25,000. She also ordered that he be deposed in Connecticut, rather than in his home of Austin, Texas.
Over nearly four years of litigation, Mr. Jones repeatedly delayed proceedings, violated court rules and failed to submit business records and testimony ordered by the courts. Late last year, judges in Texas and Connecticut ruled him liable by default, granting the families a sweeping victory. In trials slated to begin next month in Texas, juries will determine how much Mr. Jones must pay the families in damages. The Connecticut case is the last scheduled trial, set to begin on Sept. 1.
And there’s this infuriating hilarity:
With the trials looming, Mr. Jones continues to stonewall. Judge Bellis last week rejected his claim that a medical emergency prevented him from sitting for a two-day deposition in Austin. The day before his court-ordered deposition, Mr. Jones was broadcasting from his Infowars studio while his lawyer, unknowing, told the judge he was under a doctor’s care at home.
