One intriguing tidbit coming out of the trial of smear artist and vile demagogue Alex Jones' defamation trial in Texas was this:
"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." (our emphasis)
It's a matter of record that Roger Stone leads a rather perverse life, but Jones likes to portray himself as ultra macho and aggressively anti-LBGTQ+. But Jones is mainly a performance artist, so his schtick might be a cover for a different lifestyle, one that's in stark contrast to his public image. We'll have to see.
Attorney Bankston says he won't release the text due to its personal nature, but now that law enforcement and the January 6 committee are due to get Jones' phone messages, it's just a matter of time before the contents of those "intimate messages" are leaked.
