He's already filed for bankruptcy, both personal and his company so I imagine he's already doing that. I think it'll be a long road to him actually paying something substantial.
Alex Jones the conspiracy nutter

Bankruptcy won’t save him.
Nice, by contributing to a group that looks to limit the 2nd amendment you're threatening the life of her children.
"“Because of this PAC’s frivolous lawsuit against me, I’m not allowed to block people that threaten my life and my children’s lives every single day on social media,” she tweeted. “And they are bragging about donating the money to organizations that want to take away my guns, so I couldn’t defend myself and my children, when people show up to murder us.”"
Joe Rogan episode with Jesse Singal. Offers to introduce Jesse to Alex and take him drinking with him.
Edit: can't find the timestamp, think JR might if snitched edited the episode - edit: found it.

But Google search shows up this from JS Reddit so it happened.
Edit: 26:42 - Joe Rogan says AJ says the Sandy Hook stuff is a feck up.
Speaks and defends him at length. Claims a head injury is why the way he is.
31:35 - Joe Rogan tells Jesse he's going to drink with him after earlier saying he can set it up.

Does he have enough money to pay these huge fines?
I'm glad he's been forced to pay for his BS.

He is incredibly rich so possibly

Selling sugar pills and radiation blocking devices to people who believe that Hilary Clinton is literally a goblin space nonce is incredibly lucrative.
I remember an amazing article I read about two guys who started email newsletters in the late 90s, focused towards right wing, conspiracy nutters and they made millions offering ad space on the letters for gold coins and fluoride cancelling toothpaste
It does make me laugh when I see online people saying “so much for freedom of speech”
These people are morons essentially that don’t know the meaning of freedom of speach
Freedom of speech doesn’t give you a pass to verbally threaten people or hurt people with such hateful hurtful views that gathers a dumbass gullible audience that end up threatening these families because of the platform Alex Jones’s was able to air his views about these shootings and their families
too right he should be held accountable for the hurt he’s caused those grieving families
hopefully he loses all his wealth and ends up behind bars, the fewer people like him around the better

During peak pandemic he was making between $400k and $600k… a day. He’s quite likely a billionaire, all of that off of conspiracy bullshit. It is very lucrative.
Cannot believe how right wing nutjobs are up in their arms over this and how this is the end of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech was never supposed to be about giving people right to say anything and destroy innocent people’s lives by lying, I don’t really get where anybody gets and idea that they can say literally anything and walk free.
The world is full of them, chatting nonsense just to achieve a bit of fame and money. I often wonder if half the guests on day time tv are talking shit too.
but this guy was especially repugnant because of the way he brought the deaths of innocent kids into it.
You are right however a lot of their entire basis for being is based of the mistaken belief that they should be free to say whatever they want without any consequences or anybody challenging it - even if that is racist, homophobic, or generally fecking stupid.
how does this work, if he doesn't pay, does he go to jail. I'm going to assume he can't pay that amount back no matter how rich he was.
She's said the same things as he did. She's trying to give herself a defence if they come after her.
Never envisioned today would be the day Sebastian Gorka & I shared common ground…

He'll probably appeal it for as long as is allowed. No matter the legal costs, it won't be as much as he owes.
How anyone could spend time with that idiot is beyond me. Fecking idiots
Maybe lying and being an asshole is his profession (the one that earns him fans and hence money) and he keeps the work away from his personal life
Haha. Yeah, he is behind everything a truly nice bloke.Maybe lying and being an asshole is his profession (the one that earns him fans and hence money) and he keeps the work away from his personal life
Everytime I see something about Alex Jones I remember Striker10. I miss them.
the amount of people who support Alex Jones on my twitter is pretty worrying
though my twitter is mostly crypto bros, which explains a lot

Speaking of, has Maddow lost her show on MSNBC? Haven't seen her on the 9pm slot in weeks when viewing the channel guide each evening. Cutie Alex Wagner has been in that slot.
I think she stepped down/retired
edit: MSNBC to replace Rachel Maddow with Alex Wagner four nights a week - The Washington Post
Maddow still has her show on Monday nights, cutie has it Tuesday through Friday.
Ah, thanks. Maddow's show was the only MSNBC segment I found interesting. I don't find Reid interesting, Hayes is boring, and (no longer on at 10) O'Donnell uninspiring.
O'Donnell is still on at ten unless it changed in the past few days. You might be thinking of no more Brian Williams at eleven (Stephanie Rhule is now the anchor).
I must have seen the Friday lineup - it has Kornacki at 10pm.

Hasn't he already filed for bankruptcy?
I think his company did.
What happened to him?
The conspiracies became a little too racist, if I recall correctly.
Edit: It might have been vaccine stuff, actually.
There's far more racist and equally boring people on this forum than @Striker10. If anyone deserved a 'pass' it was him. Genuinely one of the most interestingly insane people I've come across on the internet and I miss his posts.
Has now eventually filed for bankruptcy,
Interesting to note he only has up to 10million dollars in assets, yet has between 1billion and 10billion dollars of debt!
The guy is finished.

No he isn’t. He will continue doing what he’s doing and will continue making money from it. He just won’t be as absurdly rich as he was for a while.
Yeah, seems to be popular for some reason.
He was accused of hiding assets during the trial
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/25/us/politics/alex-jones-lawsuits-bankruptcy.html
As for the debts I believe that includes the $1.5bn in damages so does not really say much that it's between one and ten billion
He needs to prove to the judge that he didn't inflict a "willful and malicious injury," according to bankruptcy codes. Good luck to his lawyer with that.
There's quite a disparity between 1.5 and 10 billion no??
Yes and as his debts are listed between 1 and 10 billion and we know 1.475 billion is from the law suits all that can be understood is that his other debts are between zero and 8.525 billion which is a pretty wide range
