The satirical news site The Onion and a company associated with Jones are fighting for control of his platform after the conspiracy theorist declared bankruptcy.
The late-night ruling left the future of Jones’ empire in question.
He argued that the women Gaetz is alleged to have victimized are “super gorgeous.”

Bankruptcy judge Christopher Lopez said he had problems with the auction process, in which bids were submitted secretly.
The satirical news website plans to turn the right-wing conspiracy haven into “a parody of itself.”
A group of disinformation watchdogs are bidding for Jones’ far-right media platform at auction with the goal of turning the notorious conspiracy theory-mill into a force for good.
The right-wing figures appear to be as buddy-buddy as ever, with Alex Jones telling Tucker Carlson on stage Tuesday, “I gotta say, I love you.”
The sale is still only expected to raise a fraction of what he owes.
The former speaker’s seemingly flippant comment had many conservative politicians and pundits fuming on Sunday.
