CNN’s Tapper: GOP Lawmakers Who Believe Epps Conspiracy ‘Not Exactly a Mensa Group’
Breitbart ^ | 01/12/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/12/2022 5:23:35 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

CNN anchor Jake Tapper said Wednesday on his show “The Lead” that members of Congress forwarding a “fringe conspiracy theory” about a man named Ray Epps, were not members of the high IQ society, Mensa International.

Tapper said, “This is a fringe conspiracy theory, but I have to ask you because it’s showing up at congressional hearings raised by House and Senate Republicans. An Arizona man, Ray Epps, has become a target of what appears to be a completely baseless right-wing conspiracy theory that he was an undercover FBI agent or informant or operative at the Capitol on January 6 last year. That he was planted by the government, this is the conspiracy theory. Planted by the government to encourage the insurrection. From his public profile and from reports about Epps, it appears he’s a Trump supporter and a former member of the Arizona branch of the far right-wing group the Oath Keepers. Has the January 6th Committee looked into this accusation at all to see if there’s any truth to it?”

Says the man who is fed Mockingbird lies daily. Tapper and the rest of the so-called news anchor are just Pravda spokesholes for Dems. He is fed lies by the Federal Bureau of Instigators.

Cue the Wolf Blitzer Jeopardy meme. Tapper is probably about his level of intelligence.

I lost track:

Anyone have a list of all the conspiracy theories the right has been accused of which have been proven true since 2020???

Epps will undoubtedly be on that list (proof: The pushback).

My 10 year old son figured it out …. So to some degree he’s right. It’s doesn’t take more than a 10 year olds common sense to see and hear the truth.

BFD. I’m sure there are many MENSA members who have no idea how to shut off the water valve when their toilet overflows, or even how to drive a car.

I’m a Mensan.

That's good. I suspect that a plurality, perhaps even a majority, of FReepers either are or could be Mensans.

Lots of high iq folks are not smart when it comes to understanding relationships, politics or functioning well in society.

I wouldn’t necessarily rely on them to tell me a conspiracy theory is real or not based on their personal opinions.

It has to be more than 10 years since I watched a CNN program.

Jake, why talk about Ray Epps at all? Why would you even bring up a fringe idea? Hmmm…

Think Tapper is talking about himself. Wonder why Tapper isn’t interested in the Epps story or why the FBI took him off their list and aren’t going after him. I know, a rhetorical statement.

The fact that this pedo is smearing conservatives (again) actually validates the theory and tells me it’s probably true - he’s not at all interested in the truth.

Someone needs to ask Tapper about his pedophile producer. What did Tapper know and when did he know it?

Whatever happened with that shoot out at a bar between biker gangs? It seems like the same thing happens every time some big event happens, the FBI or Po Po is there ahead of the event egging things on.
