    Alex Jones is moving his money to family and friends in an attempt to hide his cash. I am sure the courts will eventually hunt it all down -- and those involved in attempting to hide the funds will also be held accountable.

    Alex Jones reportedly concealing funds to avoid $1.5bn payout to Sandy Hook families
    The conspiracy theorist was ordered to pay the families of the victims damages for claims that 2012 shooting was a hoax

    Rightwing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones appears to be moving his money to friends and family in an attempt to avoid paying out nearly $1.5bn in damages to the families of the victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, a new report reveals.

    Last year, Jones was ordered to pay the huge damages following his years-long claims on his digital platform Infowars that the mass shooting was a hoax staged by the government to take away guns from Americans.

    According to a recent New York Times investigation into Jones’s financial and legal documents, the far-right broadcast agitator transferred assets worth millions of dollars outside the reach of creditors as lawsuits from Sandy Hook families as well as court sanctions stacked up against him over the past years.

    As part of a series of maneuvers to avoid paying for legal damages, Infowars’ parent company, Free Speech Systems, as well as Jones himself, declared bankruptcy last year.

    “I’m officially out of money, personally,” Jones said on Infowars in December. “It’s all going to be filed. It’s all going to be public. And you will see that Alex Jones has almost no cash,” the Associated Press reports Jones saying.

    However, the new investigation by the New York Times found that in addition to Jones spending $80,000 on a private jet, security and a villa during his time in Connecticut last year to testify at trial, he also appeared to have been sneaking away his money to various entities.

    The report revealed that in October 2021, Jones made a business agreement with Auriam Services, a month-old company founded by lifestyle blogger Anthony Gucciardi, a friend of Jones. According to the report, Auriam Services was to function as a credit card processing intermediary.

    Then, in February 2022, Jones transferred his $3m estate in Austin, Texas, to his wife, Erika Wulff Jones. The house on the estate spans over 5,400 sq ft and boasts four bedrooms and five bathrooms, in addition to a pool and a spa.

    The investigation also found that Jones signed a contract last July with Blue Ascension, a new company founded just a few months prior by Patrick Riley, Jones’s former personal trainer and assistant. That same month, Free Speech Systems filed for bankruptcy.


    In response, the victims’ families filed a lawsuit that claimed that Jones was fraudulently moving his money away from creditors, including transferring $11,000 a day to $11,000 a week and “up to 80 percent of his [diet] supplement sales” to PQPR, a company controlled by Jones and his parents, the New York Times reports.

    In January, Jones submitted a personal balance sheet to a bankruptcy court in Texas which the New York Times reviewed. The sheet indicated that Jones had approximately only $5.6m in total assets.

    However, a financial statement submitted by Jones’s attorneys last month, which was prefaced by “five pages of disclaimers” saying that Jones is not fully aware of where he has bank accounts, indicated that Jones had far more money.

    According to the documents reviewed by the New York Times, Jones’s property was revealed to be valued at a total of $10m. It also indicated that his stated monthly income was $129,000, with $104,000 coming from undisclosed sources.

    Last month, Jones remained adamant about maintaining his platform and company, saying on his podcast, “If anybody thinks they’re shutting me down, they’re mistaken,” the New York Times reported.

    Despite being awarded nearly $1.5bn in legal damages, Sandy Hook families are uncertain whether they will be paid the full amount.

    “There’s a chance we’re going to be forced into a situation where we’re going to be checking to see how Infowars is doing every month to figure out if our clients are getting paid or not,” Mark Bankston, one of the families’ attorneys, told the outlet.

    Earlier this month, Free Speech Systems proposed a bankruptcy plan that would pay an annual salary of $520,000 to Jones and leave $7 million to $10 million to annually pay creditors, including the victims’ families.

    It's hard to believe Alex Jones can get more insane... but he does.

    Alex Jones' latest conspiracy links Kanye West and 'eugenicist super Nazis'
    https://www.rawstory.com/alex-jones-kanye-west/

    Alex Jones, during his “InfoWars” show last week, claimed that “eugenicist super Nazis” were behind his controversial interview with Kanye West, Rolling Stone reports.

    Tim Dickinson writes for the outlet that the far-right talk show host claimed that the interview in which Ye professed his love for Hitler was part of a broader conspiracy to make the rapper ‘into a pawn by a tyrannical elite whose dark ambitions make 'Hitler look like a lightweight.'"

    Jones turned to the topic of Kanye after falsely claiming the Anti-Defamation League was enlisted by the “New World Order crowd," which he falsely claimed sought to impose “a biomedical, mad scientist, de-population tyranny” and had “hired leftist groups like the ADL to be their front,” as part of a “false flag” operation.

    “We have to transcend that, and not become Kanye West — who I’m not attacking,” Jones warned his viewers, “but obviously has been sucked into the paradigm.”

    Jones claimed the New World Order cabal may have used West’s legal issues surrounding his taxes to “go around and try to set people up — like he did that day, sitting here in that chair next to me,” Jones said, snapping and pointing at where Ye had been seated when the rapper declared, “I like Hitler.”

    Dickinson contends that the bizarre conspiracy theory may signal Jones trying to distance himself from West’s remarks.

    “I love everybody,” Jones said.

    “I love the Muslims. I love the Jews. I love the Christians … I love the agnostics and the atheist…I really don’t want to see us all destroyed together.

    “I really don’t want to see this planetary-collapse into hell world.”

    Jones’ statement appears to have caused a kerfuffle in far-right circles. Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes, who joined Jones during the Dec. 22 broadcast and was working for West at the time wrote on Telegram that “Alex Jones wasn’t set up" and called Jones’ statement a “flat-out lie.”

    “I know Alex doesn’t agree with us on the Jews or Hitler, which is… what it is," Fuentes said. “But he has been mischaracterizing that interview for the last 6 months, insinuating that we were there to sabotage his show, which is a malicious, a-s-saving lie."

    Businessinsider has a very nice article last year on the anniversary about each of the victims of the Sandy Hook mass shooting...names, photos, and a touching short story about each victim.

    https://www.businessinsider.com/who-were-the-victims-of-the-sandy-hook-shooting-2017-12

    By the way, many of the parents of the victims had set up fundraising or foundations to help others. A few examples...
    • Josephine Gay, 7, celebrated her birthday just three days before she was killed. Her parents have set up a fundraising campaign called "Joey's Fund" to help other families who have kids with autism.
    • Daniel Barden, 7, was "an old soul." His family founded a foundation in his name to encourage others to do little acts of kindness.
    Disturbingly, this was when the conspiracy theories by Alex Jones and the other idiot from Infowars known as Owen Shroyer (who recently pleaded guilty about storming the capitol on January 6th) went to an entirely new level when he gave out the phone numbers & addresses of the parents or maybe it was just a coincidence.

    Yet, I wonder why the parents didn't bring a defamation lawsuit against Owen Shroyer ?

    Also, what about ZeroHedge involvement in publishing a fake story by Owen Shroyer and the editor of InfoWars that the parents lied about their children being murdered ???

    Shroyer told viewers in the 2017 Infowars’ segment that “fact checkers” said ZeroHedge’s story had merit. Yet on the stand Thursday, Shroyer admitted he has no idea who “ZeroPointNow” is. And the fact-checker he referenced on that episode was Jim Fetzer, author of the book “Nobody Died at Sandy Hook.”

    Simply, InfoWars and ZeroHedge were jointly involved in their conspiracy theories of the Sandy Hook mass shooting including falsely identifying another person as the shooter by publishing a photo of the person...resulting in that person getting death threats and being stalked.
