Infowars conspiracist Alex Jones is a big step closer to losing his studio and brand

[LetMyPeopleVote]

I have been friends with the Bankstons for almost 20 years. Susan Bankston aka Juanita Jean posted this on facebook this morning

Finally, we may be seeing Alex Jones sliding straight into hell on his big fat Trump butt. It’s been a three year crazy - sincerely insane - battle in Federal Bankruptcy Court where the Jones estate has only been distributed to bankruptcy lawyers.
Finally, they got it out of the federal courts and back into Texas District Court where it all started.
NPR was in court today in Austin and got a quote from that lawyer we all know and love.
“The families are pleased that the court has placed InfoWars parent company into receivership, which will finally lead to accountability for Alex Jones' monstrously cruel harassment" said Mark Bankston, one of the attorneys for the families.
“Judge Maya Guerra Gamble's order in Travis County, Texas district court appointing a receiver, Gregory Milligan, may herald a quick end to Jones' long run under his Infowars brand.”
There’s lots of good information in the story for those breathing a sigh of relief today. Mark’s friend Avi (corrected due to mental instability in my head) Moshenberg, the bankruptcy lawyer representing the cases in Texas court, did an outstanding job of making this happen.

This article really made me smile

This time it might be for real.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones could soon be forced to stop airing his Infowars show and give up the company's property, including everything from desks and microphones to the Infowars brand name.

A state judge in Texas Wednesday ordered Infowars' assets to be turned over to a newly-appointed state receiver, who will sell them to pay the families of the Connecticut children killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. They won a $1.3 billion defamation case against Jones after he spread bogus conspiracies that the shooting never happened and the grieving families were actors. His listeners harassed the families for years.

The move paves the way for the receiver — or sheriffs — to start the process of seizing cash and property owned by Infowars and its parent company, Free Speech Systems, within days. The families, who've spent some three years in federal bankruptcy court trying to collect what Jones owes them, could start seeing their first payouts through the state court in weeks or months.

1. The Onion should buy it, again

[EYESORE 9001]

2. Being Texas, will law enforcement do diddly-squat when it comes to seizing property?

Speaking of the Onion…wouldn’t surprise me if the guv calls out the Texas Rangers to protect Mr. Jones’ assets. Hear that, Onion? Better come up with something like that before it becomes reality.

3. And of course....

From the link:

"This fight is your fight!" - Alex Jones. Wishfully.

He then immediately told his shit-flinging stew-pud Reich-wing listeners who move-their-lips-when-reading - to buy his shitty products to help him pay his legal bills.

Because separating the slavering hordes from their money is the Prime Directive.
