So, How Corrupt is United States Bankruptcy Judge Christopher M. Lopez?

So, US Bankruptcy Judge Christopher M. Lopez has ruled against The Onion's winning bid to take over Alex Jones' Infowars.

Much like retired Judge Robert Drain, of Purdue Pharma infamy, who later secured a very comfortable sinecure with the Corporate Restructuring Group at the law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, he has one of the busiest bankruptcy dockets in the nation, because he is INCREDIBLY friendly to corporate debtors. (As an aside, a judge in the Houston court was forced to resign after it was discovered that he was living with a partner at a firm that frequently had cases before him)

I am not saying that Alex Jones or his Evil Minions™ paid the judge, I am saying that he does this sh%$ because he wants the prestige associated with big cases, and not to spend his time adjudicating bankruptcies of landscaping companies and swimming pool installers.

Now we have this garbage ruling:
