          Yes! And Lee is correct, and that truth is critical. Those instructions should have included a reminder of the consequences the judge is empowered to impose, and the warning that she's done talking... next step is (whatever she decides... but actual consequences). He's a very slow learner who's lived in his own delusional bubble for a long time. It WILL take more than words to pop that bubble now.

                  Interesting question.

                    Im a turn the other cheek forgiveness kind of dude. Pretty zen.

                    But that video is something even I have wanted to see for a long time. A dittohead, InfoWars, MAGA kind of guy finally pinned down and held to account. It’s remarkably satisfying to watch.

                      What's the max the jury can award? Is there a max?

                      This is a civil suit for money. At some point his speech was outside what is covered by the first amendment, and ought to be criminal. Perjury may land him in jail.

                        The plaintiffs' lawyers suggest that Jones be fined $1 for every American whose opinion about Sandy Hook may have been influenced by exposure to Jones' repeated claims that the killings never occurred, and that the parents are all " crisis actors."

                        They've found a 3rd party survey which suggests 150M Americans were exposed to that garbage.

                        That's just compensation for pain and suffering. The dollar figure is before any punitive damages folks may pursue.

                        Bear in mind that according to the figures on Jones' phone, during CPAC, Jones' business selling Infowars branded supplements and snake oil grossed about $800k/day.

                        The wages of sin may be death, ultimately, but they're pretty steep in the interim too I suspect.

                            I was just driving and listening to NPR, and they mentioned that Alex's lawyer in responding to the subpoena, sent the entire contents of his phone...

                              Beau has an interesting video up. Observes that Jones is very, very connected to the upper tiers of Trumpworld. And that the privileges which all lapsed respecting whatever is on that phone will be of some .. interest .. to his pen pals about Jan6. Beau suggests that Jones' phone may become prominent in a couple of episodes of the 2nd season of the J6 show.

                              I think Jones is essentially a WWE wrestler who thinks he does commentary. And that he may be able to do a "heel turn" for the ages, if encouraged enough.

                              Still hope he's broken and penniless after this suit though.
