"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I thought his bankruptcy filings in advance of that Texas case were already pretty damn fraudulent?

I'd like to see him rot in jail for the rest of his life, but if he keeps digging himself in deeper with all these courtroom and money hiding shenanigans and becomes a huge siphon for donations that would otherwise go to Far Right politicians, it might be an acceptable consolation prize.

Thrive to spite them

Matt I don't think that Alex Jones did anything criminal with the attempt at bankruptcy in Texas. I know that it was dismissed

But last month a judge barred a lawyer and the chief restructuring officer for Free Speech Systems from working the bankruptcy. There was conflict of interest and then the judge deemed that the CRO was deferring to Jones and the other companies instead of just looking out for FSS. The judge also ordered an independent trustee to be involved and Jones just picked a new restructuring officer the beginning of October and that person has been approved by everyone. I'm not sure if there is a new lawyer, the article from late Sept said there was only someone who agreed to serve as co counsel but since everything is moving forward I guess they did.

And I saw Marjorie Taylor Greene was defending Jones and then saying this was political persecution and trampling over his free speech...which really isn't surprising that the extremists are defending Jones.

I have no doubt, personally, that he's got all kinds of fraud going on and I would really like to see him jailed for that and all his worldly goods going to pay damages

In lighter news, I forgot that I prefer Peet's pumpkin spice coffee to Starbuck's. No Peet's drive thrus convenient to me, alas, but I splurged on some k-cups for the office and it's very nice (although it pains me a little to be paying for my own coffee to drink in the office)
