"Far-right provocateur Alex Jones, who owes almost $1.5 billion in court-awarded damages to the families of Sandy Hook victims, is now accusing authorities of trying to take his cat away, because of his bankruptcy proceedings.
Jones' wife, Erika Wulff Jones, posted a bizarre video on Twitter on Thursday of her husband complaining about the authorities' attitude towards the pet.
In the video, Jones said he attended a bankruptcy hearing with Justice Department officials earlier that day, where they spent "five minutes" of a three-hour hearing talking about his cat.

They really don't want you asking questions about Sandy hook

[@smartass0124]

Just for this we should hair raise them even more

[@mysteryc07]

His cat's name is a disgusting reference to an old racist tale of Chinese food restaurants using cats in their food. He's a pig.

Take his cat before he eats it. He would have no issue eating his neighbours so...

It IS harassment. Going after someone's pet is UNACCEPTABLE.

Alex Jones doesn't have a cat. The one in the video is a crisis actor, and frankly, his performance was over the top. Too much meowing. Made him less believable. 🤣

[@darrylhaynes9208]

That cat is a crisis cat actor.

[@midgeratchet]

that cat hates him, and he refers to the cat as “it.” jones doesn’t give a crap about the cat.

[@Psalms2.6ministrydavidkelley]

That poor cat....I hope it bites the crap out of him...can't even hold a cat right 😡

[@busterandloulou]

The cat doesn’t seem to like you. It would be kismet for you to lose your cat. You did put the cat on a list of assets. Family members are not assets.

[@mattsamoto4451]

Get that cat away from him before he trys to eat it. I feel really bad for the cat.

[@DameSaiyan]

That cat Is tired of you and ready to go.

[@mysticmarble94]

Maybe his cat is a "" crisis actor "" 💀

[@pumpkin6028]

When I filed for bankruptcy years ago they asked the same questions to me about my pets as well, I just kept repeating it doesn’t matter what you consider their monetary value, I will never ever sell my pets. It actually scared me.

He’s not fit for a trailer park

His cat, is a paid actor.

[@arthurwatts1680]

The irony of 'they want me to sacrifice my children' is mind boggling. The Sandy Hook parents aren't laughing. Oxygen thief - the sooner he disappears from the public eye, the better.

[@menotyou8369]

That poor cat is begging to be taken away.

[@dantemcedgelord9331]

nope, you clearly never had a pet

[@Ssss16483]

Alot of the people in the comments make me sick and have obviously never had a pet they loved

[@winstonsmith8482]

Lol these are your boys, these are your people, this is how they behave, did you ever stop for a second and think: "are we the baddies?"

[@NuncNuncNuncNunc]

You mean obviously they have had a pet that they loved and know that not everyone should have one.

[@UsernamesSuckHere]

This dude is literally Cartman from South Park lol

[@jasonfuller1001]

I won't be happy unless I see him on a corner somewhere in Los Angeles holding a sign and living in a cardboard box.

I won't be happy until he's living in Minneapolis in February in a cardboard box, and then in Mississippi in August in a cardboard box.

I'm a little disappointed he didn't say they are trying to turn his cat gay.

Omg I love you

LEAVE THE CAT ALONE

[@Hineni666]

the cat is a crisis actor

[@yeevita]

Pretty sure he is lying. The discussion was probably about the giant house he is obviously inside of.

[@religionkills4081]

Pretty sure he is lying ? He is LYING 100%. He has no other tricks or traits. It's who he is.

[@mk.........]

probably a CIA asset.

[@alirE2904]

The cat obviously cant stand you.

[@dayers8715]

Even the cats trying to get away

[@shadowjudge921]

Can't say i blame the cat.

[@asmuel]

He'd eat that cat 15 seconds into the apocalypse, before he's even out of food. Take it away pls.

[@theMermaidRhonda]

That cat deserves better..

[@jumperpoint]

I'm sure that cat would be better off with some other family. Jones needs to stop pretending he's the victim.

[@ProfMannion]

The cat keeps writing the Justice department begging them to do something.

[@closer02001]

🤣

[@annabanana7071]

😂😂

[@holdenross3322]

the cat is his daughters, dont punish a kid for something her father said. thats like if someone commits arson, so you walk up to their 2 year old son and rip his teddy bear's head off right in front of him. this is gross.

[@xinnie8893]

It’s just like that, but the punishment would only apply to arsonists who happened to criticize the government.

[@leonvanderliner]

I do think it's weird that this guy has to pay a billion dollars for saying he thinks sandy hook was a hoax there is some super crazy shit surrounding that, the biggest one that tipped people off being that clip of the parent laughing and joking with the film crew until they give the call they are about to start filming then he changes his demeanor

[@anthonyfernandez82]

I guess it's because he was telling his viewers that it was definitely fake and was making money off those claims. Either way, they're definitely sending a message by punishing him so severely

[@nelsonquintanilla748]

​@@anthonyfernandez82 Alex Jones was right

[@richardstanislawski2577]

Take the cat away before he eats it

[@mytruecrimelibrary]

😅😅

[@kilkenny2000]

The cat wants nothing to do with him 😂

[@Daedalus_Dragon]

Jones lives in Texas, so garnish 100% of the show’s earnings and his wages to leave him with a pretax $290 a week. The $7.25 minimum wage. Leave him in poverty until he has paid every cent he owes the families.

[@anashesithole240]

No

[@Witchywoman22]

That cat doesn't like you Alex...

[@pcalderon00]

Probably true cuz ragdoll cats are very docile and clingy like dogs.

[@christomaritz5106]

Maybe daddy should not have been a douche

[@catwhisperer968]

The cat clearly doesn’t like him

[@charlotteinnocent8752]

YES.

[@nolongerblocked6210]

Who does like that pos

[@mytruecrimelibrary]

Apparently neither does his dad. When the prosecution got a copy of his phone, it was revealed that his own father refuses to answer his texts.

[@RachelRampage88]

Why is he choking his cat 🙀

[@ladymeropi]

With so much pain and suffering he's caused, screw him. The cat will sell well and be just as loved by another family. He deserves to be left with NOTHING after the damage he's done.

[@patrickthornton5232]

Crisis actor. That cat doesn't even look sad

[@lindyoliver7750]

The families of Sany Hook victims loved their children . And nobody is after your cat. Show receipts.

[@YaGotdamBoi]

That poor cat….he desperately wants down

[@tanyawilson3579]

I feel bad for the cat Alex Jones is a waste of shit

[@patientzero5685]

Somebody should rescue that kitty!

[@user-ln9ui9yn3j]

The cat wants to leave by the way he was acting and meowing. He is being harassed poor kitty .

[@dawnlinnell]

He seriously, of all people, claims harassment. 🤬

[@doubtingmantis]

Free speech is free speech. Everyone has the right to their own opinion.

[@NuncNuncNuncNunc]

You don't have the right to defame, libel, harass, incite, etc. Lawyer can will this in with the legal terms, but it is naive to say "free speech is free speech" so anyone can say anything about anyone. If you doubt me, I encourage you to yell, "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Better yet, walk up to a cop and tell him you have plans to shoot up a school. Free speech, right?

[@ElOmarco]

@@NuncNuncNuncNunc Yelling "Fire" in a crowded theater is the example often used that conflates having the right to express one's opinions with the deliberate act to create harm. A proper metaphor would be to yell "Fire!" in a theater that you ACTUALLY believe to be on fire. He was wrong, nobody debates that, but it's also clear to me that many of his political enemies are using those Sandy Hook parents to pursue their own political goals. I find THAT to be far more disgusting.

[@doubtingmantis]

@@NuncNuncNuncNunc The First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” The first thing authoritarian governments do is take away the people's freedom of speech. Once censorship starts it never stops. Much more harm will come to a society that gives up there freedom of speech than can come from the words that someone may say.

[@jackchop1576]

I agree that this cat is adorable... but this seems unlikely. Poor cat isn't loving this video at all. 😂😂

[@thatswhatisaid8908]

If he cared about his cat, he wouldn't have listed it as an asset. Anything considered an asset is fair game.

[@bleumeanyontherampage2136]

See how that cat struggled to get away from him? He's sexually assaulting that cat and it wants to be free.

You know what's more likely? That Alex Jones said " Hey, you want my money? Well, I got this cat worth $2,000. No seriously, it's worth $2,000! That's what I PAID FOR IT!" . Dude so out of touch with people doesn't realize most people should adopt from a shelter and give them your money, not some breeder.

[@teardowndan5364]

Looks like even Jones' cat hates him. Wouldn't be surprised if Jones didn't give a damn about the cat beyond using it s a prop in this video.

[@lachousalle31]

I don't know. I would feel bad for the cat. Eventually it would adapt to a new family but the cat still shouldn't have to go through the sadness and stress from being taken away from it's family. With that being said, I hope that all of his valuable and expensive possessions get taken away from him. He doesn't deserve a life of luxury.

The exotic cat is an asset. If he didn't list it there would be a federal crime now.
