→ Is this the end of Infowars?
The Deep State’s conviction of Trump has cleared the path to go after the real target: Alex Jones — or so he claims.
“The button’s been pushed after Trump was convicted last Thursday. It started the next day,” Jones said, referring to a request from the families of Sandy Hook victims to liquidate his media company as part of a proposed bankruptcy settlement. Even the two-week delay on liquidating Jones’ business was the result of an hours-long meltdown he had over livestream last weekend, in which he cried and said “There’s really no avenue out of this.”

Jones was ordered to pay about $1 billion in damages to the families who lost children in the 2012 killings after he claimed the shooting had been a hoax, and the negotiations to settle that to a smaller sum in the tens of millions have so far been unsuccessful. Is this the end of Infowars?

This « down with the kids » look may seem rather forced, but on TikTok, it’s paying dividends. On a recent video, the former Ukip leader racked up an astonishing 1.6 million views and almost 200,000 likes on a recent post, titled “Lovely Melons!”
It’s worth noting that on TikTok, Farage is the most followed politician in the UK. Maybe after politics he should think about becoming an influencer…
→ Maher-stradamus issues damning Biden warning
Joe Biden is going to lose his reelection race in November — or so says Bill Maher, a longtime Trump critic.
“I would vote for [Biden’s] head in a jar of blue liquid over Donald Trump,” he told his guest, Left-wing journalist Kara Swisher. “I think it’s a moot point at this point, he’s gonna fucking lose.”

Maher has become something of a heterodox voice within the American Left in recent years, doing interviews with Right-of-centre figures such as Megyn Kelly and critiquing wokeness.
