1/ #CapitolRiots fueled by #AlexJones’ propaganda.
Alex Jones paid $500K organize the event, admits he was directed by #Trump to lead the crowd to the Capitol.
.@FBI Pls Investigate Free Speech System’s & Trump’s communications, donors & pre-election funding of infowars.
Thought they moderated comments.
.@FBI
Praise God, my youngest child is finally safe with me, although Alex is actively distressing her, w intention.
It’s not enough & Alex’s counsel has pressured me while she has been in the ER 4 nights & while Alex was in DC inciting..
I will not be pressed to trial in Alex Jones’ latest cruel & unmeritorious lawsuit pursued solely to harm & to stifle my speech in secrecy..
They were denied medically necessary care &/or providers’ recommendations ignored.
The hearings in the case were sealed w out due process.
This has protected Alex &...
My child is ill and my attorney is overwhelmed.
Any citizen, attorney or organization can move to unseal Travis Co. D-1-FM-15-005030 under Rule 76(a) of TX Rules of Civil Procedure..
1/ I used to own infowars & left domestic abuse & cultic #ConspiracyTheory control.

Convicted criminal Roger Stone suddenly went on infowars prior to election. Infowars became Trump TV...Infowars paid for airtime & advertising & has a history of working with Russian Media... pic.twitter.com/FqfdgBt8OC
Ms. Handler, I'm Kelly Jones, former owner of infowars.

The propaganda of fake news infowars, which was instrumental in getting Trump elected, aims to destroy the Free Press so that fascism can take total control.
The attack on Acosta is an attack on the 1st and cannot stand. pic.twitter.com/JBpD1l6DmH
The propaganda machine behind #Trump includes infowars & #AlexJones who Trump said has \u201can excellent reputation.\u201d

Trump has retweeted infowars.
Here\u2019s what infowars said about #Michigan lockdown protestors. Is this a threat? Enticement to violence? pic.twitter.com/aAfbKZficg
This is my ex-husband, Alex Jones, graphically describing how he'll kill his neighbor to f e e d my kids:
— Kelly Morales (@RealKellyJones) May 1, 2020
Homicidal.
Terrifying.
I lost my kids for tweeting about injustice.
This is UNJUST to my kids.
This is a mom's worst nightmare.
Court must act.

#Mueller should investigate how it is that the feloniously collusive parties (Trump, Corsi and Roger Stone) all came to appear on infowars, which became a major campaign platform for Trump. They should investigate all paid advertising, wages, changes in corporate structure. pic.twitter.com/katoK01ILl

Alex Jones mimes shooting, tells Mueller, “You're going to get it, or I'm going to die trying, bitch. Get ready”
.@FBI
Thank you .@godboltjb for if this is for real, the possible criminal implications seem to be verrrrrry serious.

That helps explain the infowars sticker on the law enforcement vehicle. Accidental placement by that rabble during a riot seems unlikely to me.

Spinning your role after crossing the country in a tank, calling for 1776 & paying for the stage at DC cannot be mitigated by snarky & false calls for calm out of the side of your mouth https://t.co/34K3bzGUia
@FBI Attack on Capitol was an inside job.
— GOD HATES TRUMP (@Antifa_Tubes) January 9, 2021
Donald Trump and Alex Jones coordinated the attack on the Capitol.
They are partners in crime and coordinated the attack for several days if not weeks.
Attack failed, so now they obviously blame Antifa. pic.twitter.com/2yNbR0AqzS
These calls to burn down Twitter, to prep for civil war and sick antiSemitism are on infowars TODAY in “moderated” comments to incendiary articles.
#TrumpBanned #FBI
Here is #AlexJones, who repeatedly lauds violence & talks civil war praising the #ProudBoys as \u201cheroes\u201d in a \u201cwar w #GavinMcInnes https://t.co/vtrlRVx9PH

Hearings have been UNLAWFULLY sealed from public oversight. Open courts are guaranteed by the 1st Amendment.
If the hearing is not open & I cannot address the Court I will refuse it as unconstitutional. Pls amplify #AlexJones
Shut it down. #UnplugInfowars
@FBI
Alex Jones at the front on the march to the #Capitol next to #AliAlexander w #TrumpSupporters shouting “This is history happening! We’re not giving into the globalists! We’re never surrendering!”
Please retweet this tweet & thread.
#FBI see .@dudgedudy feed:
Chilling propaganda w explosions over.@JoeBiden, “artwork”: “Fight for Trump,” MAPS, & Alex talking about #Trump’s meeting with #RogerStone, “big things afoot.” #TrumpSupporters
Trying to verify photo. If you have information or original footage pls send to the #FBI & report.
https://t.co/44fxbUSn1q
I believe any American would be concerned about the content & am reporting it according to my duty.
Will post clips when I can
An unidentified man (Security of some sort??) turns to the March & seems to say, "Alex! It's time to storm the Capitol! Backstage!"
Cannot post, tagged as “harmful.” Why .@TwitterSupport?
More from Court
1/It seems apparent that the rulings in my case & was the Travis judiciary has allowed/ignored us related to the fear/coercion of #AlexJones and of his audience and employees who harassJudges & jurors.
.@FBI pls investigate the 3.07 violations, donations & defamation/slander..
2/I am aware that such coercion & perception has had real impact on my children’s lives & these cases Alex files against me.
Alex’s counsel has threatened me “accidentally” & tells my representation & others lies to coerce them to stay on team good-ol-boy$.
3/Why doesn’t the Court protect my kids? I filed a Temporary Restraining Order before the Thanksgiving that any judge should immediately grant: #AlexJones publicly intoxicated/getting wasted while he is enjoined (disallowed to) drink while he has my kids. The Court must fear him
4/No judge may be persuaded by coercion or benefits of ruling the way their main donors demand. No litigant can coerce judges or witnesses. Witness tampering very clear, documented by probative evidence as fraud in Alex’s lawsuits against me. .@fbi investigate pls
.@FBI pls investigate the 3.07 violations, donations & defamation/slander..

What #AlexJones says on #Infowars doesn't just stay on the internet. It incites violence IRL!
See how former InfoWars guest host, Owen Benjamin, parrots Alex Jones rhetoric on premeditated murder!?!https://t.co/U1HiqGg7XU

Some initial observations about this case, and in particular what the Court of Appeal made of the Attorney General’s application to refer these sentences as “unduly lenient”.
Spoiler: it makes uncomfortable reading for the Attorney General.
First, by way of background. I was one of several commentators astonished that the Attorney General, who has no known experience of practising criminal law, decided to personally present this serious case at the Court of Appeal.
It appeared an overtly political decision.
Comments leaked to the press confirmed this was a political decision, to capitalise on a tragic case in the headlines.
A “friend” of the Attorney General told the Express that she was pursuing the case *against* legal advice. She also took a preemptive pop at the judges.
On the day of the hearing, it appeared from selected reports that the AG was out of her depth. She appeared to be making political submissions to the Court of Appeal that have no place in a case of this type.
The Court of Appeal judgment helps understand what happened.
The AG played a limited role. She “rehearsed some of the facts and said that the sentences had caused widespread public concern”
Her contribution was seemingly not considered by the Court to be legal submissions. Oof.
Spoiler: it makes uncomfortable reading for the Attorney General.
There will be no substantive change to the sentences passed on the killers of Pc Andrew Harper.

The Attorney General\u2019s application to refer the sentences as unduly lenient and the defence applications for leave to appeal against sentence have been refused by the Court of Appeal. https://t.co/qxTzuj7jR3

The Attorney General - who has absolutely no experience of criminal law - is so desperate to exploit this tragic case that she is inserting herself into proceedings that she is not competent to conduct.https://t.co/QWdINvUwwf

Before the hearing, the Attorney General leaked to the Daily Express, via an alleged \u201cfriend\u201d, her views that, should the judges find against her, it will be because they are \u201cwet liberal judges\u201d who are \u201csoft on criminals\u201d. https://t.co/5uGggN8tTT

The Attorney General had to be embarrassingly corrected during the hearing by an actual criminal silk after making irrelevant and politicised submissions to the Court of Appeal.

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.
The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.

The first area to focus on is diversity. This has become a dogma in the tech world, and despite the fact that tech is one of the most meritocratic industries in the world, there are constant efforts to promote diversity at the expense of fairness, merit and competency. Examples:
USC's Interactive Media & Games Division cancels all-star panel that included top-tier game developers who were invited to share their experiences with students. Why? Because there were no women on the
ElectronConf is a conf which chooses presenters based on blind auditions; the identity, gender, and race of the speaker is not known to the selection team. The results of that merit-based approach was an all-male panel. So they cancelled the conference.
Apple's head of diversity (a black woman) got in trouble for promoting a vision of diversity that is at odds with contemporary progressive dogma. (She left the company shortly after this
Also in the name of diversity, there is unabashed discrimination against men (especially white men) in tech, in both hiring policies and in other arenas. One such example is this, a developer workshop that specifically excluded men: https://t.co/N0SkH4hR35
