Alex Jones and the Largest Defamation Case in US History

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Jones AlexAlex Jones’ comments on Sandy Hook were merely the pathway for the government to target Jones after a career of questioning the establishment. Alex Jones found himself in the largest defamation case in American history for questioning the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut. The InfoWars host was coerced into paying the families $1.5 billion – an amount they knew he could not pay.

Jones did not commit the massacre, nor was he involved in any way. It was a passionately heated and tragic topic and the public court of opinion placed those feelings on Alex Jones, as the murderer, Adam Lanza, took his life after the killings. Now I do not agree with his statements regarding Sandy Hook, but it is of concern that the government can stifle free speech and put an arbitrary price tag on the damages. Jones was forced to file bankruptcy in December 2022, but the families are still seeking his money.

Now, seeing as they may not receive additional payments, the lawyers representing the families are asking Jones for only 6% of what he owes in addition to dropping the claims against him. “Jones may elect to receive a complete discharge for himself and (his parent company also in bankruptcy) if he agrees to pay, from any source, at least $8.5 million per year, plus 50 percent of any income over $9 million per year, for 10 years,” the settlement states. How are the courts arriving at these arbitrary numbers?

Where is the rage for the countless deaths by Big Pharma? What about Perdue who created the opiate crisis that killed thousands of kids? People are marching in the streets as we speak and denying the Hamas attack. People can currently question the 9/11 attacks, the JFK assassination, and other shunned topics thought to be conspiracy theories. If the powers that be had their way, conspiracy theories would be banned. Any theory that goes against the status quo must be demonized before others also begin to question current narratives.

2022_03_21_Infowars Martin ArmstrongI have appeared on InfoWars numerous times and appreciate that Jones is willing to question everything and anything. His delivery scares those who do not want to question the system, but he is not some crazed or evil man. He sparks a dialogue on topics that are typically not discussed. Hyperbole and seemingly over-the-top statements are part of his brand.

To put this into perspective, a wrongful death payout is around $1.5 million. Again, I am not in favor of the statement Jones made but he expressed a viewpoint and that should be protected under 1A. Plus, everyone knows Alex Jones is outspoken and questions everything. He just created a parody video game called “New World Order Wars,” where players can enter Epstein Island and hunt down Bill Clinton. His statements are dismissed due to his hyperbolic delivery but there is truth in much of what he says. In the case of Sandy Hook, Jones apologized to the families and retracted his statements. This situation shows that free speech is extremely limited and the consequences could result in financial ruin.

So the lawyers realized they weren’t going to get paid for a couple of years of fronting legal expenses for the families and got together to offer an “out” for AJ. Their law firms are out MILLIONS. They see him going mainstream with interviews with conservative media types with greater reach than they can generate. They are losing the PR war.

How long before it’s just, “…OK, just pay us legal fees/court cost and we’ll call it even”?

Overton’s window has shut almost completely and they are panicking.

Another Smith Mundt modernization Act production. Sandy Hook was obviously a mass casualty exercise passed off as real. All evidence points to no one dying. Hell, the school had been closed for some time prior. Jones is a Time Warner employee. That is a fact. The trial was staged. Beyond fake , absolutely ridiculous that anyone could fall for this.

Actually, people did die at Sandy Hook…..I know several families that lost children. Now was it Adam alone…..that is a very different question and why the “exercise” and all the other indicators of a false flag……but the kids did die…….the government has no issue with sacrificing children for its purposes (see Covid etc.)…..Now Alex is an entertainer saying outrageous things to sell his supplements but under our constitution, he has the right to be a wing nut. Whether he is right or wrong is irrelevant….he has the right to say what he wants…….

Hey Fed guy, Adam doesn’t exist. Do a little honest research work if you can and you’ll see for yourself.

You have two choices only

2. You’re really fucking stupid

Now why would I lie? What would I possibly have to gain by lying about that…..I lived in CT close to Sandy Hook at the time and moved to MT after we failed to stop the AR15 registration program…..it was liberal CT…. So no I am not lying…..why do you find it hard that the US Govt would kill children? They did at Oklahoma City (False flag), Randy Weaver, 9/11 etc……so why not Sandy Hook. Yes kids fucking died……and likely at the hands of the US Govt.

The school had been closed for at least 2 years. All the email activity(there are companies that log all this type of analytic info) at the school went to ZERO 2 years before the “shooting”(LOL). It was full of mold, inadequate handicapped facilities and a friggin list a mile long of other deficiencies.
All the GOOD You Tube videos showing it to be an exercise gone live have been pulled. They are gone! What have they got to hide?

Hammer, TBP is lost to the trolls by its own success. Stop trying to converse with the Anonytards, they are cowards and for all you know there are only a handful of them. If you say it was fake then they will jump on you, if you say it was actual kids but Lanza is fake the same. If you say Lanza was MKUltra and he killed the kids himself they will jump on you as fast as if he was “helped” by a ops team. It matters not, we know the TPTB are willing to kill whomever for whatever reason by whatever means is deemed appropriate at the time. Anything else is jousting windmills.

says anonymous poster, so if your in the know give names of the person and the street they supposedly lived on. the internet will have many sites aggrigating data and whop lives where or lived where . so if you have evidence these crissis actors seen on the local ct news were also interviewed at other events. seems theres lots of that evidence on line as well. if you can clear up the misunderstanding i suggest that you put up or shut up. john and margrett smith 123 main st sandy hook ct 06470….its that freaking easy if your being factual.. i live not far from there….the funeral homes had no records of all those kids. then ask your self about the trans girl in tenn. how that whole deal was an act down to the wrong color shoes from one frame to the next like it was majic of editing…you have to know the khazarian mafia owns hollywood and even google ai called the us moon landing images FAKE. last bit of advise. believe nothing you hear and half of what you see. meaning always doubt and verify lest you be made a fool.

Its the murikan way bro….

You can attain financial ruin thru the just-them system by either losing a fake case and the judge awards the other with lottery winnings. Or you can attain that wonderful financial ruin by being bled dry by lawyers, the future judges in training.

If you don’t like the just-them system then you can use option B, the medikill system combined with a side of not enough insurance to save your hiney. Or you can opt for the tax man to come help you carry the burden of to much money. So many choices… murika… land of the free dreaming slaves.

In an analog to the Streisand effect, the deep state minions went over the top right around the time of the ‘judgement’ against Jones coupled with the ‘judgement’ against Fox on the Dominion coverage. They whipped Fox down, the cowards submitted and are just another deep state mouthpiece now, covertly obvious in their ‘new’ approach. But not Jones, he’s being more careful but he isn’t one of their whipped dogs. To the Streisand effect, I never listened much to Jones, a big old brawling loudmouth yelling from the screen, he made me uncomfortable with his schtick. I’m paying attention now. The enemy of my enemy is at least my acquaintance, even, maybe especially, if he’s a big old brawling loudmouth.

In order to move people off the dial you have to swing hard to one way. Its an effective way to het people emotionally involved and more willingly actionable.

All propaganda works this way, eg bayonetted babies, babies beheaded, vile enemies raping and killing women and the men doing it all coked up on drugs.

Jones just used these tools to his advantage. He knows that just talking truth and in tepid tones will get the People riled to actionable… just kidding. It will do nada, just like the past three almost four years now, has done nothing in the usausa.

Not a fan of Jones style either but dulcet tones move nobody, it puts then to sleep.

This fake case against fake Alex Jones is just a way to get people to shut up and not out all the psy-ops, like the Sandy hook CIA psy-op and the many more coming soon.

The Franklin child abuse scandal – accusations spread about the stunning cover-up of a child prostitution ring for wealthy elitists and political leaders. Then silence.

Paul Bonacci , a child sex trafficking victim for the elite, who named Kissinger as an extremely sadistic pedo at the Bohemian grove filed a lawsuit against his trafficers, on February 5, 1999 a lawsuit against his that resulted in a million dollar judgement, for Paul Bonacci, however, he never received any of that money and if alive, he lives in hiding .
Fake shill for the Illuminati Alex ‘Shlomo’ Jones, is not going to pay anything.
The whole trial is a fraud.
It is all another psy-op.

“1.5 billion” and yes this is not only outrageous, it is a complete attack on the freedom of the press and speech. It should not be allowed to stand weather one agrees with it or not. Today it is Alex Jones, tommorow it may be you or I! Besides that Sandy Hook thing stinks! I remember watching CNN and Fox on two different TVs simultaneousl, saying the coplete opposite of eachother. CNN even said they found a 2nd shooter in the woods outside the school. Why is Jones the bad guy for Hypotheticals? Fucking hypocrisy! Goddamn Dems can do and say anything but the rest of us can’t? Fucking sounds real old Soviet Union Da, party or nothimg Da? This is supposed to be the Great U.S.A., wtf happened!? Oh, and what’s wrong with questioning 911, Gaza, etc? What happened to this country? Everyones got to be offened and that’s all that matters? Not the truth?
