In the wider scheme of things, ongoing litigation in relation to his unapproved use of Eddy Grant’s ‘Electric Avenue’ in a 2020 campaign video probably isn’t a major cause of stress for former US President Donald Trump. But that lawsuit proceeds, and now the Grant side has got an extension to the case’s discovery phase in order to subpoena Trump’s former Deputy Chief Of Staff Dan Scavino.Grant sued Trump in September 2020 over the use of his 1983 track in an election video which, according to a description in the musician’s lawsuit, featured “a visual depiction of a high-speed red train bearing the words ‘Trump Pence KAG 2020′ in stark contrast to a slow-moving handcar bearing the words ‘Biden President: Your Hair Smells Terrific’”.No one had sought permission to use ‘Electric Avenue’ in that video, hence the copyright infringement lawsuit.

At one point, he even tried to give himself COVID,” Noah said, referencing Jones’ latent cough throughout parts of the clip. “‘I can’t speak.
You know the disease I said is fake? I got it now.’ You know you’re in trouble when the truth chokes you up like you’re on an episode of ‘Hot Ones.'”Of course, Noah also recognized how momentous it was for the Sandy Hook families’ legal team to get their hands on such information.“This moment is huge, because it shows that Alex Jones probably committed perjury. Which means Alex Jones lies about stuff,” he said.
“That’s shocking, because now I’m starting to wonder, does that mean chemtrails from planes aren’t turning the frogs gay? Was that also a lie?”(Yes, Jones did actually say this. In 2015 he blamed the government for chemical warfare that was going to “turn the friggin’ frogs gay,” according to CNBC.
In 2017, he reportedly claimed that “the majority of frogs in most areas of the United States are now gay.”)Noah ended the segment by wondering where Jones found his lawyer, considering it would be one huge oversight if the contents of his phone were sent by mistake.“By the way, where did he get that lawyer? Can we just talk about that?” Noah continued. “I would love to be there for that classic lawyer-client conversation during recess…’Well apart from the fact that I screwed
