‘Make them come through a chain of patriots’: Alex Jones calls for fans to blockade his offices as Sandy Hook families ask judge to liquidate his company
The families of the Sandy Hook massacre have asked a federal court to liquidate Alex Jones' company to help pay out the $1.5 billion defamation judgment.
Ahhh! But did you check the cellar? [Authorization was] on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.'
I dunno what would be funnier, if a bunch of people did this and got themselves arrested, along with Jones, for obstruction, or if just no one showed up at all.
I dunno mate, he seems to be high on coke all the time so that aneurysm may be closer than you think. Also, if he ends up broke under a bridge (I can hope!) then his reach is greatly diminished.
I don't really get why people would risk life or liberty for a person richer than them. You don't see these people participated in the Jan 6 insurrection.
Now what kind of creative solution might a judge ordering that liquidation use to deal with that...
I wonder if it'd be workable to fine anyone involved some periodic amount, individually of course. How long do you suppose they would keep supporting him. One thing to have convinced a bunch of low info persons to shout your praises, asking them to bankroll your protest is another.
Oh indeed it is, was my daily work filing papers in cases for about 6 years. The usual deal being to list all assets and all liabilities and it's assumed that everything is subject to discharge, but a stack of exceptions allow creditors to object and prevent their claims from being included. One exception I recall but rarely saw was judgements arising out of fraud or malicious actions.
Sanctions always are a tool just for annoying the judge, who can really do whatever they want withing the bounds of law. Enforcing them on random 3rd parties might be difficult, but if they're impeding the court's work well, judges don't take contempt actions very well typically.
Given Jones's audience, there's a good chance some of them would be the police. Austin suburbs are packed to the gills with Joe Rogan / Alex Jones fellow travelers.

Gotta say, I'm underwhelmed. This is way out in the exurbs of Austin, practically down in Kyle TX. For a guy who was halfway to being a billionaire a year or two ago, its kinda depressing to see that this is where the magic is supposed to happen.
