As questions swirl about his credibility, former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone settled a defamation suit seeking $100 million in damages on Monday for publishing false and misleading statements on InfoWars.com, a far-right website known for promoting conspiracy theories.

The agreement requires Mr. Stone to run ads in national newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal, apologizing for making defamatory statements about a Chinese businessman who is a vocal critic of Beijing.

I thought it was a far-left website?  Aren't these the same folks who said that the WTC and Pentagon attacks were an inside job?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

Nothing new here, I've never been able to see how he could write a book and blame LBJ for this. Nevermind that a lot of people do in fact blame LBJ but I think it's a bogus charge and to put it into print?

Info Wars use to be labelled conspiracy, now it seems to be labeled as right-wing, alt-right, whatever you have.  I've still seen some decent interviews on it.
