Bankruptcy Judge Blocks The Onion’s Purchase Of Alex Jones’ Infowars
Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez denied the motion approving the sale of Infowars' assets to Global Tetrahedron, a new firm that owns The Onion. Says the auction process was "doomed" when it was sealed, lacked transparency, and lacked clarity about what was even purchased and money was "left on the table, according to Mother Jones journalist Anna Merlan.
This motion, however, prolongs the agony of the Sandy Hook families, who the ghoulish rat-fucking conspiracy theorist owes $1.4 billion from a 2022 defamation lawsuit for making the families' lives absolute hell after the children were slaughtered, calling the devastating mass shooting "a hoax."
The Associated Press reports:
Lopez cited problems — but no wrongdoing — with the auction process. He said he did not think that those involved in the auction acted in bad faith and that everyone "put their best foot forward and tried to play within the rules."
Still, Lopez said he said he did not want another auction and left it up to the trustee who oversaw the auction to determine the next steps.
The Onion offered $1.75 million in cash and other incentives for Infowars' assets in the auction. First United American Companies, which runs a website in Jones' name that sells nutritional supplements, bid $3.5 million.
