The DOJ appears to be interested in Alex Jones’ pet cat.
Yeah, you read that right.
Well, that’s what he says in a video that’s gone viral.
In the video, Alex is holding Mushu, his Rag Doll breed cat, and explaining that the Justice Department spent 5 minutes discussing the cat during a recent hearing. Alex and his lawyers were taken aback because they had never heard of anything like this before.
According to Business Insider, far-right provocateur Alex Jones, who owes the families of Sandy Hook victims nearly $1.5 billion in court-awarded damages, is now accusing authorities of attempting to take his cat away due to his bankruptcy proceedings.
Erika Wulff Jones, Jones’ wife, posted a bizarre video of her husband complaining about the authorities’ attitude toward the pet on Twitter on Thursday.
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.
“This is Mushu,” Jones said, cradling the animal in his arms. He estimated the two-year-old cat was worth around $2,000.
“They were very serious about the cat and its value, and they may want the cat for the Sandy Hook families,” he said.
Jones also said that they wanted to know if “assets were hidden in the cat.”
He claimed it was harassment.
