I'm quite surprised. From the outside, how the US appears, I would have expected Trump to do some BS or the courts threw it out because free speech for psychopaths etc. But somehow that didn't happen?

Let us not forget that the lawyer for Alex Jones sent a full copy of all Alex Jones' text messages for the past two years to the opposing counsel and did not claw them back or make any attempt or give any notice until the window passed. Meaning the opposing counsel got to sit there and call Jones out for lying on the stand, using his own words from his own private texts. It really hurt his credibility with the jury, I imagine.

p.s. Sorry you can't read whole source without a work around.

    Are the text messages not evidence that would have had to be turned over to the opposing counsel anyway? Don’t really know how the whole lawyering thing works
