Jones says his enemies want him off the air. US bankruptcy law is on his side, for now.
Last week, a Connecticut jury ruled that Alex Jones and his Infowars media company must pay nearly $1 billion in damages to the families of the Sandy Hook victims — punishment for lying, over and over, about the 2012 mass shooting.
“Their mission is to shut me up and take me off the air,” Jones told his followers via video after the verdict.
That’s not going to happen in the near future. And it’s possible it may never happen.
In recent days, Jones has interviewed Republican dirty trickster Roger Stone, who suggested that Donald Trump should add Kanye West to his 2024 presidential ticket; he’s called the Anti-Defamation League “the closest thing to a Nazi organization that America has”; and he has continued to rail against Covid-19 vaccines, which he says are a plot engineered by “transhumanist globalists.”
In between his rants, Jones encourages his audience to support him by buying supplements like Brain Force Plus, which he promises will “supercharge your state of mind” and is on sale for $20 for a bottle of 36 tablets.
