After fantasizing about buying MSNBC and installing Alex Jones on the liberal media network, Elon Musk inserted himself into a legal battle to try to block The Onion from obtaining any X accounts belonging to the bankrupt conspiracy theorist.

The judge overseeing the sale of Alex Jones' Infowars ordered a hearing to review the auction process and a motion to block the Onion's bid.

A federal judge in Texas has ordered a new hearing on whether the satirical news outlet The Onion made a valid bid for the Infowars platforms of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who alleges a bankruptcy auction was marred by fraud and collusion.
