ed note–just as we have said on previous occasions ladies and Gentile-men, where the topic of Jones and the tidal wave of lawsuits that have been brought against him was being discussed, the following commentary appears herein without as much as an ounce of gloat or glee, but rather with great personal regret and remorse…

As much as we are antithetical to Jones and to all the monkey business that has been his claim to fame for many, many years, the truth of the matter is that we are not in the least bit pleased that it has come to this–Him being sued and ordered to pay OVER ONE BILLION DOLLARS over the ‘Sandy Hook Hoax’ nonsense that he should have avoided like the plague if indeed his brain had been firing on all cylinders when it first ‘popped up’.

And make no mistake about this, ladies and Gentile-men–This latest piece of legal ordnance is not just some average, run-of-the-mill judicial ‘hand grenade’ that has been tossed into some unlucky person’s foxhole.

It is nothing less than an ‘ELE’–Extinction-Level-Event–for Jones personally, and for all intents and purposes a public execution by beheading, followed by disembowelment and then being torn limb from limb and left in a very public place for all the townfolk to see.

However, as we have pointed out here on this humble little informational endeavor now for almost 10 tears, NONE of this should in ANY WAY surprise anyone with just a few functioning brain cells. As was warned here on occasions too many to count, ALL OF THIS was as much part of the ‘protocols’ of the learned elders of Zion as was this–

The only difference being that in this case, the act of sabotage was directed against the same ‘trooooth moovmnt’ that sprung up in the aftermath of 9/11,  imploded with the same kinds of ‘shaped charges’ that brought down the Twin Towers, those ‘explosives’ being the kinds of nutty things which this guy–

and this guy–

and this guy–

and this guy–

and this guy–

–and many others had to say viz how ‘no one died at Sandy Hook’.

Now that this latest legal thermo-nuke has gone off to the tune of over ONE BILLION DOLLARS against Jones, the precedent has been set to go after this guy–

and this guy–

and this guy–

And anyone else who DARES say anything that runs counter to the ‘official narrative’ with bankrupting lawsuits that now–per the precedent attached to the Jones case–can run into the hundreds of millions or even BILLIONS of dollars.

Now, this truly would be an ‘injustice’–as many of Jones’ supporters/defenders are saying at this time–were it not for the fact that at every step of the way, sane and intelligent voices, such as this guy–

And a very small handful of others WARNED, somewhere between a million and a billion times, that all of this was coming, just as sure-as-shinola, and that the lit fuse on this WMD needed to be yanked out of the warhead before it went off…

…Warnings that were not only for the most part completely ignored, but as well, answered with tidal waves of ridicule and charges that those issuing these warnings were ‘dupes’ and ‘disinfo agents’ and ‘shills for d’Jooz’ and out to help the evil-doers in the big ‘gun grab’ that was coming…

We’ve said it many times before and we’ll say it again, ladies and Gentile-men–

The Jews didn’t do this to us. We did it to ourselves.

Far-right talk show host Alex Jones should pay eight families of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims and one first responder $965 million in compensatory damages, a Connecticut jury decided Wednesday, capping a wrenching weeks-long trial that put on display the serious harm inflicted by the conspiracy theorist’s lies.

With its punishing award, the decision could shrink or even doom Jones’ Infowars media empire, which has been at the center of major conspiracy theories dating back to former President George W. Bush’s administration and was embraced by President Donald Trump.

The plaintiffs and their attorneys were visibly emotional when the jury’s decision were read. The decision marks a key moment in the years-long process that began in 2018 when the families took legal action against Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems, the parent of the fringe media organization Infowars.

Jones baselessly said again and again after the 2012 mass shooting, in which 26 people were killed, that the incident was staged, and that the families and first responders were ‘crisis actors.’ The plaintiffs throughout the trial described in poignant terms how the lies had prompted unrelenting harassment against them and compounded the emotional agony of losing their loved ones.

Plaintiffs in the trial included family members of eight school students and employees, in addition to one FBI agent who responded to the scene. The three cases were all condensed into the single trial.

Jones was not in the courtroom for the verdict. He was streaming live when the jury’s decision was read in court, mocked the decision on his Infowars show and used it to fundraise.

It’s unclear when or how much of the money the plaintiffs will ultimately see. Jones has said that he will appeal the decision and during his Wednesday broadcast said that there ‘ain’t no money’ to pay the massive figure the jury awarded the plaintiffs.

Christopher Mattei, an attorney for the plaintiffs, had urged jurors to award at least a half a billion dollars for having permanently mangled the lives of his clients. The figure, he said, would represent the more than 550 million online impressions Jones’ Sandy Hook lie allegedly received online.

‘You may say that is astronomical. It is,’ Mattei said. ‘It’s exactly what Alex Jones set himself up to do. That’s what he built. He built a lie machine that could push this stuff out. You reap what you sow.’

Mattei praised the jurors after the verdict was reached.

‘The jury’s verdict is a testament to that courage, in a resounding affirmation that people of goodwill, dedicated to the truth, mindful of their responsibilities to their fellow citizens can come together to protect the innocent, to reveal lies masquerading as truth, and to set right a historic wrong,’ Mattei told reporters outside the courthouse.

The decision in Connecticut comes two months after a separate jury in Texas determined that Jones and his company should award two Sandy Hook parents who sued in that state nearly $50 million. Later this month, the judge in that case will consider whether to reduce the punitive damages awarded under Texas law.

While Jones initially lied about the 2012 shooting, he later acknowledged that the massacre had occurred as he faced multiple lawsuits. But he failed to comply with court orders during the discovery process of the lawsuits in Connecticut and Texas, leading the families in each state to win default judgments against him.

During the latest trial, families of the Sandy Hook victims offered emotional testimony, telling the jury in haunting terms how Jones’ lies about the shooting had permanently altered their lives and compounded the pain of losing their loved ones.

Jones, who was cross-examined by the plaintiffs’ attorneys, but chose not to testify in his own defense as was originally planned, sought to portray himself as a victim of an elaborate ‘deep state’ conspiracy against him.

In a particularly explosive moment in the trial, Jones tangled with an attorney for the plaintiffs, accusing him of ‘ambulance chasing,’ before descending into an unhinged rant in court about ‘liberals.’

The judge overseeing the case admonished Jones several times during his testimony, warning him even at one point that he could be held in contempt of court if he violated her rules moving forward.

Jones has attacked the judicial process, even acknowledging in court that he had referred to the proceedings as those of a ‘kangaroo court’ and called the judge a ‘tyrant.’

He has already indicated that he plans to appeal.
