Slouching Towards Oblivion

Oops

This is one big fuckin' oops.

I should stop for a minute and think about how this could be the thread that binds it all together.

It's easy to look individually at
  • 800 boneheads who've already been sent to prison
  • The Proud Boys and The Oath Keepers
  • A dozen or so congress critters
  • About 20 White House staffers
  • 8 or 10 campaign aides
  • half a dozen cabinet officers
  • A few Pentagon guys
  • etc etc etc
- and come to what seems like a slam dunk conclusion about guilt and conspiracy to pull some batshit crazy inside coup.

But this being America - even USAmerica Inc - we have process. We have a set of rules we have to follow if we're going to stay true to our vision of Mom, and home-made apple pie, and baseball and Chevrolet, and all that other shit they try to sell us.

The big glitch has been trying to find something that could string it all together. Something that gathers all the players and rat-fuckers into one big maggot pile.


It's possible Alex Jones has just done a lot of that work for us.

News Times - Danbury CT:

Alex Jones’ cellphone records include ‘intimate messages with Roger Stone,’ Sandy Hook attorney says

AUSTIN, Texas — The attorney for a Sandy Hook family says the U.S. House Jan. 6 committee has requested a copy of Alex Jones’ cellphone records that the Infowars owner’s lawyer mistakenly gave to the attorney.

Attorney Mark Bankston told a Texas judge during a hearing on Thursday morning that the records include “intimate messages with Roger Stone,” an ally of former President Donald Trump who was subpoenaed by the House committee alongside Jones last year.

The data also includes mental health records for the plaintiffs in similar Connecticut defamation lawsuits filed against Jones that will go to trial. His Connecticut attorney Norm Pattis and his Austin attorney Andino Reynal, who it appears inadvertently released the records, are now required to appear before a Connecticut judge in the next few weeks to discuss possible discipline, court records show.

Stone, who was born in Norwalk and was a longtime informal adviser to Trump, was indicted by federal authorities on charges of lying and witness tampering in connection with the release of Democrats' hacked emails in 2016. Trump later commuted Stone’s sentence and granted him a pardon, according to the Associated Press.

The messages between Jones and Stone were of a personal nature “unrelated to matters of public importance” and won’t be revealed, Bankston said. “I’m not going to smear him (Jones) with his private life,” Bankston said during a brief press conference Thursday afternoon.

Otherwise Bankston is willing to cooperate with the Jan. 6 committee by providing whatever information from the data they request, he said. “I don’t even know if it covers the time period they are interested in, or what time period they are interested in,” said Bankston who determined that the records include Jones’ text messages dating back to 2019.


- more -

The rest of the story lays out some details in regard to Mr Jones getting his ass handed to him in court pretty much all day.

The thing that's likely to be really explosive is the fact that the Jan6 Committee wants to look thru all that material, and even if there's not much new they can learn directly, the fact that they can open up a whole new avenue of inquiry just might rattle a few cages of Trump gang assholes, and get a little choir practice going.

As of right now (Aug 4, 2022 at 8:00pm EDT), the jury came back with a judgement of a little over $4 million dollars that Alex Johns has to pay the families in Compensatory Damages, and tomorrow or in a day or two, they'll come back with the Punitive Damages. The families' attorney has said he's thinking about a number well north of 9 figures.
