Trump Response to Ray Epps' 'I Orchestrated It': 'Gee, I Wonder’
Newsmax ^ | 12/31/2022 | Eric Mack

Buried in the release of the House Jan. 6 Select Committee transcripts is the interview with Ray Epps, the un-indicted man who was urging supporters of then-President Donald Trump to "go into the Capitol" the day before and the day of the protest.

The unusual interview featured anti-Trump Reps. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., and Adam Schiff, D-Calif., tossing Epps with softball questions, if not treating him like they were his defense lawyers, according to some conservative critics on Twitter.

It caught Trump's eye, too.

"The Unselect Committee doesn't explain Ray Epps, Sullivan, or the 'other' ringleaders," Trump posted early Saturday morning on Truth Social. "Gee, I wonder why?"

Ray Epps, in part, caused Jan 6th. But who helped him. And who was he working for?

There are numerous “fact checks” which try to debunk these reports BUT here is a story:

The article says although he left immediately when the breach of the Capitol had begun. ?????

Excuse me.
There is video of Epps involved with the crowd using a Trump sign to push the capital police out of the way.
That’s far more of a crime than the velvet rope warriors did

Welcome to Free Republic.

How did the unselect committee find Trump responsible for the supposed criminal actions of others and yet saw no problem with Epps actions?

Here's Epps's testimony to the Jan 6 committee:

His FBI attorney coached him pretty well, but the "orchestrated" was a mistake on his part.

it's important note Epps quickly backtracked his statement in general saying he played a part in orchestrating it. This feels like a setup to make us look bad in my opinion.

************

Because the kangaroo committee was a ‘get Trump’ operation from the start.
They have a narrative to sell to democrat blockheads in the beltway.

That demographic eats this anti Trump crap up......... “hook, line, & sinker.”

John Sullivan was the one who filmed Ashli Babbitt's shooting, from outside to the door where she was shot.

If you can find and watch the video, the people in the back were covering their faces like ANTIFA to the front where people were looking like MAGA. They weren't, they were ANTIFA, other activists, and angry people who just happened to be there.

Sullivan is from Houston, where he was arrested at a BLM rally for shooting at cars. There is a photo of him with Ray Epps in Washington DC before Jan 6.

Now if that raises questions, ask yourself why CNN had Sullivan on air as if he was some innocent bystander caught up in all of this and treated him as a hero.

B CNN’s Jade Sacker penetrating the Capitol with a member of BLM/Antifa cheering, “We did it!” And then asking her conspirator if he was filming, he said he’d delete it, he lied. CNN was in on it.

I am pretty sure Sullivan was from Provo, Utah not Houston, he was involved in a violent protest in Utah.
