Fuck Alex Jones. I used to listen to his rants bc they were the ravings of a mad man but the Sandy Hook shit he pulled makes me want to shit on his grave
I just looked it up and they apparently have joint custody. Also, apparently juries decide custody battles in Texas. Didn't know that existed.
Well the main difference now is that he's in the public consciousness enough that he gets sued when he starts yelling about Sandy Hook, Chobani, etc. He makes up the conspiracies (often using 4chan or similar nonsense) then they get disseminated through rightwing media until they end up on Fox News as "we're just reporting on the controversy" which happened in pizzagate, Seth Rich, among others. I think to some extent it's an act, he was getting ready to make a fuckton of money if Hillary won and he might've gotten a gig on Trump tv. He's been able to turn it into "the deep state is undermining Trump" but that's nothing compared to trafficking in a million different Clinton conspiracies.
He’s a tremendous grifter but he has deranged people who think “he brings up a lot of good points” and act off his unhinged rankings.

Yeah I think Jones tried run away from his role once he realized the enormous legal exposure from all this
Awesome how quickly they conclude that children not using car seats are definitely being smuggled. Eat your heart out Sherlock Holmes.
A guy I work with will tell anyone that will listen about how GMOs in food are making the population sterile and homosexual. I guess I know where he got that from now.
I wanna say it's incredible he made this much off total morons but shouldn't be surprising. I can't imagine infowars costs all that much to run and the "products" are just insanely marked up.
I’m shocked. Every evolve I see here with an Infowars sticker is a 25 year old Chevy truck with a cab that doesn’t fit right.
maybe they'd be doing fine if their monthly budgets weren't going towards Infowars like the dril candle tweet
wtf are these people? I feel like I hit a pretty big variety of markets and have never encountered an Alec Jones fan/follower. $165 million is mind blowing.
Weho (makes sense) - Jackson Hole (ok, assumed there could be some outliers) - southeast US (no idea).
Anyways, my point is I've never interacted with an overt one in the wild - $165 mil is insane to me. But Duck Dynasty had some asinine amount of continual wealth in that empire and the Kardashians are billionaires so who the hell knows.
It’s fucking crazy to me that some people on this board loved him in 2017… When I read the first few responses I thought it was from 2005 or something like that.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that a lot of that money is likely coming from foreign markets. Also wouldn’t be surprised if there was some money laundering going on.
