A reminder that he could be arguing that, say, this is a 20 million dollar crime rather than a 150 million dollar one, instead he's trying to relitigate the case in front of the jury with a bunch of winks and nudges

I've shotgunned all of Knowledge Fight and he goes in and out of court often, and sometimes he'll go to court in the morning and then go on air in the afternoon. He's done this with every other trial he's been at, so of course he and Owen go on air Monday / Tuesday as if everything's fine

What's the over / under on sanctions coming down tomorrow? I want SaltyBet for Alex Jones' defamation trial

I tuned in about an hour late when Owen was answering Jury questions. I might have just missed it in the thread but did anything come from last night's revelation by the judge that Owen and Alex were talking about the case on air Tuesday and Wednesday?
That came up. One of the jurors asked "What did you talk about when you went on air during this trial" and his answer was "I don't remember"

They were allowed to introduce evidence and dispute facts. They provided Wikipedia entries and CSAM, made up poo poo, and then refused to take part in the court proceedings until the judge finally went, "Fine. You lose."

They don't get to whine about it being unfair and lovely when they're the ones who poo poo the place up.
Oh, I agree! Several of Jones' previous lawyers hosed up pre-trial so badly that his current one has his hands tied. Mounting the kind of defense Jones would want his lawyer to mount in his current circumstance is an impossible task.

As a separate point from all of that, this dude is an idiot and a bad lawyer and is also doing a bad job.

He also defaulted there, and iirc the case in CT is way, way more focused on Jones' profit motive

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but one of the plaintiff's attorneys crowdsourced zingers from the Knowledge Fight subreddit in prep for closing arguments.

Current winning candidate is reinforcing to the jury that Daria admitted under oath that Alex's voice is a weapon.

There's scuttlebutt in the KF Facebook group that the plaintiffs are, at this moment, trying to get their hands on a copy of Alex's broadcast this morning where he called the judge possessed.

It's gonna come up in cross, possibly played in front of the jury

I still can't get over the fact that him saying "This is your Perry Mason moment" was followed by a "but" and then a bunch of nonsense. Like, it's meant paternalistically. "Look, I know you lawyer guys want to have your big lawyer moments, but shut up and listen to me speak uninterrupted".

He was trying to insult him.

Does he though? I've never been 100% sure about that. I guess we'll find out when the contents of that phone are made public.
For Alex, and for a lot of people with untreated mental illnesses, the line between "I believe this" and "I want this to be true very badly because if it were true it would justify my current emotional state" is razor thin.

His gut reaction drives the bus.

Alex treats his show as therapy. Screaming into the microphone is the only way he knows how to process his feelings, so of course he's going to express his anger over having accidentally disclosed his crimes by accidentally disclosing more crimes.
