Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones cannot use his personal bankruptcy to escape paying at least $1.1 billion in defamation damages stemming from his repeated lies about the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school massacre, a U.S. bankruptcy judge ruled Thursday.

    This is what we call a soft hand conservative.

    not screaming bloody murder about killing their political rivals and calling everyone groomers.

    But trying to sound sane and reasonable, but still dropping gems that reveal their true intentions and nature like

    Journalists tell lies all the time

    and demanding sympathy for poor, mistreated alex jones and how its a miscarriage of the justice system for him to lose the empire built on lies, misinformation, conspiracy theories, and fake medical products, and using that to incite violence and harassment against others, all because of his own actions, that he chose to take.

    Bet if this was Rachael Maddow he wouldnt be wringing his hands so hard over it.

      You guys pathologize normal opinions a lot of people have way too much. There were journalists that created entire false narratives around the Iraq war, which is almost certainly of much bigger negative effect on the world than Alex Jones saying some retarded conspiracy shit.
