Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones says he knew the Supreme Court wouldn't take up his request for an appeal of a $1.4 billion defamation judgment, even though his lawyers believed the case was "cut and dry." During his daily show on Tuesday, Jones said the high court rejected his appeal because of politics. Jones had called the Sandy Hook massacre a hoax. A lawyer representing families of Newtown, Connecticut, school shooting victims said the court was right to reject it. The justices issued their order without even asking the victims' families to respond to Jones' appeal. Twenty first graders and six educators died in the 2012 shooting. Jones is separately appealing a $49 million judgment in Texas.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is seeking court permission to convert his personal bankruptcy reorganization to a liquidation. That would lead to a sell-off of a large portion of the Infowars host's assets to help pay some of the $1.5 billion he owes relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Jones and his media company both filed for bankruptcy reorganization after the Sandy Hook families won lawsuits against him for his repeatedly calling the 2012 shooting that killed 20 children and six educators in Newtown, Connecticut, a hoax. A bankruptcy judge in Houston is holding a hearing next week on whether Jones and his company's cases should be converted to liquidations.
