The January 6th Committee Releases an Incredibly Odd Statement After Ted Cruz Asks About Riot Inciter Ray Epps

Red State ^ | 01/11/2022 | Bonchie

The FBI, DOJ, and now the January 6th committee really don’t want to talk about Ray Epps.

Today, Ted Cruz caused great triggering by asking some FBI flack named Jill Sanborn about Epps during today’s Senate hearing. Cruz attempted to get answers on exactly what the suspicious man’s role was regarding the Capitol breach, and why he was never charged with anything. What he got was a mix of non-denials and obfuscations in the form of claiming she couldn’t answer the question.

The interest in Epps stems from two things. One, he was caught on video inciting people to riot and break into the Capitol Building. He was also on the Capitol grounds that day. Two, Epps was suddenly removed from the FBI’s most-wanted list, and to this day, no explanation at all for that move has been given. The implication there is obvious, i.e. that Epps was an informant and had used his position to actively encourage violence for the FBI.

Yet, after Cruz levied his questions, something really odd happened. The January 6th Committee released an unprompted statement saying they had interviewed Epps, and even more curious, they seemed to be going to bat for him.

So, let me get this straight. The January 6th Committee, which supposedly cares deeply about holding people accountable, not only has no interest in Epps, but they are now operating as his PR firm? Does any of that smell right to you?

In other words, none of this adds up. If the goal here was to produce criminal referrals for those who helped cause January 6th, no one has more evidence stacked against them than Epps. Again, this is a man who was caught on video — multiple times — inciting people to riot. He told people to enter the Capitol Building. He also took part in the unrest itself, allegedly directing people to tear down barricades. I understand Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, and the rest want to send Donald Trump to jail, but how does that preclude them from holding Epps accountable?

But they aren’t even attempting to hold him accountable. Instead, they are releasing statements defending the guy, insisting he wasn’t working for the FBI while providing no other context for his actions.

For giggles, let’s say that’s true and that Epps acted alone. Then why hasn’t he been charged like everyone else? Do they not think he should be charged? Why is the select committee not making Epps a centerpiece of their investigation, given how blatant his incitement was?

There have been grandmas, who wandered around and took selfies, thrown into solitary confinement and charged with crimes stemming from January 6th. A guy who drank Nancy Pelosi’s beer was charged. Others who never even entered the Capitol Building itself have been charged with trespassing. But Ray Epps, despite the FBI knowing where he is the entire last year and formerly having him on the most-wanted list, has not even been arrested?

Sorry, that doesn’t make any sense at all, and short of the FBI and DOJ coming out and providing a real explanation, the rest of us can only assume what their obfuscation means. Lastly, the January 6th Committee continues to show itself to be a partisan joke. They are actually defending people who helped incite violence while still going after others who did nothing of the sort. When the GOP takes back the House, Epps should be put under oath immediately.

There must be video of Epps in the building.

Check the tapes from whatever war room Nazi Pelousy was running her operation that day.

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

The real question is why was he on the FBI’s wanted list for 6 months and then suddenly dropped?

Finding out where Epps worked in the federal government shouldn’t be too hard. He got a paycheck from somewhere to pay taxes.

“Limited hangout”

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A limited hangout or partial hangout is, according to former special assistant to the Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency Victor Marchetti, “spy jargon for a favorite and frequently used gimmick of the clandestine professionals. When their veil of secrecy is shredded and they can no longer rely on a phony cover story to misinform the public, they resort to admitting—sometimes even volunteering—some of the truth while still managing to withhold the key and damaging facts in the case. The public, however, is usually so intrigued by the new information that it never thinks to pursue the matter further.”

Modified limited hangout
In a March 22, 1973, meeting between United States President Richard Nixon, John Dean, John Ehrlichman, John N. Mitchell, and H. R. Haldeman, Ehrlichman incorporated the term into a new and related one, “modified limited hangout”.

The phrase was coined in the following exchange:

PRESIDENT: You think, you think we want to, want to go this route now? And the — let it hang out, so to speak?
DEAN: Well, it’s, it isn’t really that —
HALDEMAN: It’s a limited hang out.
DEAN: It’s a limited hang out.
EHRLICHMAN: It’s a modified limited hang out.
PRESIDENT: Well, it’s only the questions of the thing hanging out publicly or privately.

The “Media” will not hold the Deep State accountable. So Epps will never be a big story.

[central_va]

Simple answer: he’s a Fed or working for the Feds.

Occam's razor says yes.

[ExTxMarine]

I would be more surprised if they were NOT involved!

[Hatteras]

Interesting that Ray Epps, an apparent unknown “conservative” wearing all his Trump gear and posing as a big Trump supporter, was privately interviewed by the committee apparently unbeknownst to Cruz, Jordan, etal... And the committee came up with a defense for him, promptly (and quietly) let him go.

[Rurudyne]

The statement about Epps leaves ample room for him working for the DNC, or something to similar effect wide open.

If this were the case it would not be the first time such persons had so employed, as one of the earlier Project Veritas videos dealt with collusion between the DNC and a PAC to place such persons at Trump events in 2016.

[Paladin2]

“There is video of him on the grounds, inside the barricades.”

And 14,000 hours of other recordings to review for his presence.

[freepersup]

Ray Epps was definitely on the grounds. He has been filmed standing next to the media scaffolding tower and at a police control line on the steps of the Capitol Bldg. shouting out commands.

Revolver (news media website) has damning in-depth investigations on Ray Epps, Stewart Rhodes, fence cutter Bulwark man, tower bullhorn commander man, crowd inciter man, and John Sullivan.

“Ray Epps was most likely paid by Hillary Clinton and the DNC to set up innocent people.”

Just for fun, here's a start at a list of people or entities that are not “law enforcement agencies”:

o The CIA

o The DNC

o The Perkins Coie Law Firm

o George Soros

o Mark Zuckerberg

o Marc Elias

o Hillary Clinton

o Nancy Pelosi

o BLM

o Antifa

I could go on and on , but you get the point. Lots of ways for the statement to be technically true, and for Epps to be up to his eyeballs in a Deep State false-flag event.

Good observation; Well written! Thank you.

The traitors at the DOJ/FBI are arresting anyone they can that can be tracked to having been inside the red boundary.

The fencing and or barriers were taken down in key locations long before many of the Trump supporters arrived on the grounds and whom were then subsequently and unwittingly trespassing on restricted grounds.

In one of the Revolver.com news videos, an actor named "fence cutter Bulwark" man can be scene cutting and taking down the fencing at the breach point where Ray Epps also gained access to the grounds, which is known as the Ray Epps breach point.

Darren Beattie, Revolver's key reporter and frequent guest on Steve Bannon's War Room, has done extensive research on Ray Epps and company. It is worth the time and trouble to watch some of these videos and then draw your own conclusions. See the links that I provided in my first post to this thread.

[joshua c]

the fbi incited the riot

that makes sense

[joshua c]

he was on video inciting the riot

[Repeal The 17th]

What was the “Incredibly Odd Statement”?
I did not find it in the article.

[TheBattman]

Epps was probably THE most vocal and inciting figure at the capital that day - and actually the day before as well....

[dandiegirl]

Weird how they could track down all these people from Jan 6, but still can’t figure out who killed Seth Rich.

[The Antiyuppie]

If we had an actual independent press, they would be on this story en masse like flies on ****.
