From FL lawyer Jeff Childers’ “Coffee and Covid” email this morning. re: Jan 6th and Ray Epps:
___________________________________________________________

“🕵️‍♂️ Ruh-roh! It looks like a nice pot of trouble, and not just a little k-cup of trouble, might be brewing for the House January 6 Committee. But first a little background.

The January 6th saga involves a bizarre character named Ray Epps that intrepid independent researchers identified from J6 videos. Ray is a reclusive Texan. Numerous videos from J6 show Epps wandering around by himself repeatedly urging protestors to breach the Capitol. I mean, he did it a LOT, practically yelling at people to get inside. Other videos show Epps standing at the barricades and helping move them aside while calling for other people to follow him into the Capitol.

Dispute all that evidence, Epps has never been charged, arrested or even investigated — while almost 800 other people have been, including people who didn’t even go to Washington DC on January 6th.

Attorneys defending J6 folks have been pressing the government to say one way or the other whether Epps was a fed. Because if he was, it would look a lot like the government entrapped people and attacked its own Capitol. Talk about the right hand not knowing what the left hand was doing. Anyway, this dispute has been going on for almost a YEAR now, as attorneys for defendants keep asking “the most transparent administration in history” to just say YES OR NO if Epps was an agent provocateur; but the government keeps playing hard to get.

You know, it’s the old, “we can’t disclose our sources and methods,” and “that information isn’t relevant,” and “blah blah blah privileges and confidential security stuff blah blah.” And, of course, the corporate media is completely disinterested, referring to the notion that Epps might have been working with the government as just another fact-checked conspiracy theory.

Still, even though media might be disinterested in him, Epps’ name has percolated to the highest levels of the discussion, like in a January 2022 video that is now famous among J6-circles, where Senator Ted Cruz bluntly asks the FBI’s assistant director during a Senate hearing whether Epps was a double agent or not. But the government, well, they just couldn’t say:

SEN. TED CRUZ: “Miss Sanborn, was Ray Epps a fed?”

ASS. DIR. JILL SANBORN: “Sir, I cannot answer that question.”

How can they be expected to answer a question like that? It’s so hard to keep track! Apparently the FBI has wound up SO MANY nutjobs and sent them off to help normal people to do lawless things and attack stuff that it is starting to forget about some of them.

Or, the government is just obfuscating and hiding stuff again. I know you find that hard to believe.

Anyway, it’s taken a long time, but a federal judge has now ordered the government to turn over whatever it has about Epps’ connections to law enforcement, if any. At a court hearing yesterday, the judge asked the government why it hasn’t complied yet. The government’s fascinating answer was, “What I can … tell the court is that the U.S. Attorney’s Office has been working on a disclosure pertaining to Mr. Epps,” government attorney Karen Rochlin said, adding that she expected it to take, “another week or two” for the information to become available.

“A disclosure.” They’re going to disclose something about Epps. But what? Again with the demure word games. It seems fair to conclude that if they were going to just deny that Epps was connected to law enforcement, they wouldn’t need a “disclosure.” Because you don’t need a disclosure to deny something. A disclosure is a release of information pursuant to a duty to do so.

If they are finally forced to disclose that Epps was, in fact, a federal stooge, I will mercilessly mock them. For several posts. At least.”
