Alex Jones's InfoWars empire is going on the auction block to pay the $1.5 billion he owes to the Sandy Hook parents for claiming they were actors hired by the deep state to gut the Second Amendment.

"FSS [Free Speech Systems, InfoWars' parent company] will now be sold at auction, meaning Alex Jones will no longer own or control the company he built," said the parents' attorney, Chris Mattei, in a statement. "This brings the families closer to their goal of holding him accountable for the harm he has caused."
