Tucker Carlson addresses a New York Times article about Ray Epps, one of the men accused of planning the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight:'
"So for weeks, as you know, the January 6th committee Hass been holding hearings. They've been widely covered on the other channels. We haven't seen the news value in them. But there is a bit of news to emerge from that story and we want to get to it now. So the New York Times has written hundreds and hundreds of articles about January 6th since it happened, describing it as a riot and insurrection as part of its coverage last summer, the Times published a video documentary in which the times reported that one man was actually caught on camera planning an insurrection, encouraging a breach of the Capitol complex.
That man's name is Ray Epps . Now the New York Times noted that Epps was videotaped on both January 5th and January 6th, urging protesters to storm the Capitol.
A lot of ways that's the strangest video to emerge from January six . We played it several times this quote, we need to go into the capitol, into the capitol, Ray Epps tells the crowd. He says it repeatedly. He's soo emphatic about it, encouraging other people to commit a crime that the crowd around him decides he must be a federal agent. They began chanting, as you just heard, fed, fed. So shortly after that video surfaced, the FBI placed reps on a list of people wanted Ford questioning. They released it to the public and you can understand why they did that, according to the Justice Department, what Ray did on that, video is a federal crime, in fact.

Great job. Thank you.
Yuroe welcome
The one-sided hearings haven't produced news of merit, but the curiosities in the Epps saga are worthy of attention.
That is what Tucker means - and I agree.
Thanks Bob! Your plan is working, I guess, because your posts that I have noticed are always crystal clear to me. Thanks again, FRiend.
I actually do spend a lot of time correcting my posts, but sometimes, a lot actually, the spell checker doesn’t pick up the misspellings. I type on a tablet, and my fingers get ahead of my brain a lot, and it will type words backerds or jumbled, and the spell checker doesn’t catch it. I post a lot, and don’t go over them with fine toothed comb, and if I don’t see any obvious mistakes underlined, I just post.
But yeah, it does help the brain to read mixed up words, which it does well if they aren’t too badly mangled and missing letters and such
The brain will even see words written with numbers in them for several of the letters, and fill in the right letters for us. I had an 3xamp,e I posted the other day
Actually both Epps and the hearings are news worthy. While it would have been nice to have more Republican participation, the minority leader decided not to fill those seats after his hand picked people were voided. I fund it hard to believe that Jim Jordan and Jim Banks are the only articulate republicans in the whole caucus.
Hahahaha!
I was thinking I should be worried that it made perfect sense to me, but...I read that study too!
No news value? Really?
