Alex Jones is currently trying to funnel money into his father’s dietary supplement business
For both sets of families, concerns about Jones allegedly looting the company on his way out the door remain very real. Lawyers for the families made it clear during the hearing that they are ultimately seeking to preserve the value of the company to create a fair division of Jones’ assets among his many creditors, and all course, preventing him from doing what they accused him of. is the latest fraud scheme he used to hide money.
During the hearing, Jones’ assets were ordered to be dissolved. Although he will be allowed to keep his house, other personal assets, such as his gun collection, can also be put up for auction. But since the court reject plans to bankrupt the Free Speech System, Now families can try to collect the verdict They won in state court. Plaintiffs in Connecticut have asked the judge to pave the way for an orderly resolution of Jones’s businesses, as some attorneys have said, while families in Texas support a plan to stay open company until now, with its lawyers arguing they could better pursue their clients’ claims that way.
Besides pitching his father’s business for sale, before the hearing, Jones was also soaking up all the content and attention from Infowars’ imminent defunct that he could. He sat down for complimentary interviews with both Tucker Carlson and Russell Brand that aired on Infowars and loudly reflected on what he called the network’s “sunset” and the “countdown to the day.” the end of this place”.
Jones’ final week on the air was the show’s most successful take on strange characters throughout the conspiracy saga. In addition to Brand and Carlson, Mikki Willis, the filmmaker behind the viral fake documentary plague, also appeared with friends to promote a new project. Stew PetersONE Far-right anti-Semitic television station who was recently appointed communications director of a national armed militia. Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes also hosted a segment in which he raved about Black Lives Matter.
On Friday morning, Jones posted a video of himself driving on a Texas highway toward the courthouse on X Street, claiming that “the Democrats and the Deep State” are trying to control property and assets. his social media accounts.
“This is truly tyranny,” he declared, adding that if Trump is reelected “he will put them all in jail.”
Jones also claimed online last week that Infowars’s closure would only make him stronger. “You make it bigger by shutting it down, you idiot,” he declared. After the verdict, in an “emergency broadcast” over the weekend, Jones called the hearing “absolutely epic” and denounced accusations that he “stole money” as “fake.”
Mattei told WIRED last week that the verdicts against Jones were “an insulting moment of validation. And Friday if the judge rules that the company needs to be liquidated will be another moment where they feel like they’ve done everything they can to protect others. They don’t lie down.”
But of course that’s not what happened. “It’s biblical,” Jones raved over the weekend while talking to one of his frequently replaced junior hosts. “It’s almost like God is really enjoying all of this and just wants to see the fight continue.”
While the families clearly fought hard, Friday’s split verdict was instead a signal that their fight, for now, isn’t even close to over. And as Jones and Infowars continue to talk about their own unlikely survival, they’re still selling both their in-house store and Dr. Jones’ Naturals.
“We’re selling it for $12 and change,” Jones said at one point during the “emergency broadcast,” extolling the virtues of a certain supplement. He stopped for a moment. “My father is.”
