jones now has to pay the parents of a sandy hook school shooting victim more than $4 million for the cruel and widespread and relentless lies that added to their heartache over a ten-year period. now, of course, this does fall way short of $150 million they did ask for in compensatory damages sought by little jessie lewis parents, a number their attorney said came from the number of people who believed the false claims of the hoax spewed by jones and the baseless arguments that the newtown s grieving parents were actors. the number also factored in the emotional and mental anguish those parents suffered and continue to suffer today for years of harassment by jones and his followers. he finally acknowledged what everyone else hopefully knew to be true, that the massacre was, quote, using his words after what ten years, 100% real. but the $4 million is actually not the end of the story, not in this courtroom, not in texas, because jones legal battles are actually far from

Under fire right now. More than two dozen injured but i rainian proxies in iraq and syria. The new house speaker, mike johnson, promising to pass a resolution in complete support of israel. Exactly how far will that go . How far should it do . Well ask gop president ial candidates Chris Christie and tim scott. Theyre here. Your world is right now. Welcome. Im neil cavuto. Glad to have you with us. First mike tobin in southern israel as troops are there and the pentagon urges caution here. Mike .

Thats clearly got to be an israeli decision based on their own fundamental security assessment. General, its always good to have you on the program, we thank you, general Barry
