Everything we know about Ray Epps, the man conservatives blame for the Capitol riot

When Ray Epps, now 61, arrived in Washington DC in early January, 2021, he believed he was answering the call of his president.

Mr Epps was one of the thousands of MAGA loyalists who believed former President Donald Trump's lie that the 2020 election had been stolen. He also thought he and a throng of conservative allies would protest the election's certification.

Why is Ray Epps the staunch conservatives that liberals love? Why was this insurrection leader not arrested?

How could anyone write this crap with a straight face? I posted this as an example of propaganda. Nothing more, nothing less.

I think Mr. E has a deal worked out on some legal problems going back five to ten years, and he’s promised for some ‘work’...he won’t be charged-up.

Surely we can get to the bottom of the Ray Epps deal.

Typical misdirection from Yahoo.

Conservatives don’t “blame” Epps for the riot. They wonder why the guy caught on several cameras encouraging rioters to commit crimes didn’t get arrested like the people he was encouraging were.

The Deep State and their Media Mogul lapdogs (Operation Mocking Bird anyone) are going all out to convince us that Ray Epps was not fed after all. Foolish us for believing our own eyes and not believing the Deep State and the moguls.

“lock up and throw away the key to anybody that was in DC on 1/6”...

“except Epps..”

for absolutely no reason, as he’s definitely NOT a fed.

Yes, complete misdirection. I have never heard nor seen anyone blame the insurrection on Mr. Epps.

We only want equal justice. Why was he not charged, when others were jailed for less.

Why did they go into the congressional building. Had they not done that. Everything would be great.

He was simply a staunch conservative. It is what they do.

Mr Epps was one of the thousands of MAGA loyalists who believed former President Donald Trump's lie that the 2020 election had been stolen.

Ah the absurd dogmatic presumption of the Left...er I mean "news article" bakes in. They presume the election was not stolen. They presume Trump knows the election was not stolen but decided to lie about it. They presume that the reason others believe it was stolen was because Trump decided to lie about it.

The copious amount of evidence of it being stolen need not even be considered, but presumably waved away automagically with ridiculous David Hume level circular logic: Those who say they saw evidence are lying because there is no evidence. Those who report evidence are lying or deceived. And there is no reason to take any report of evidence seriously or examine its merits because there is no evidence...

It is simply a concerted effort by the media to portray him as a victim.

once you have congressman publicly thanking mr epps for his cooperation, you have to be willfully blind not to see the game. (as if it wasn’t obvious just from the fact he wasn’t thrown in the gulag)

Yahoo news is left wing propaganda. Unfortunately, millions of people get their "news" from them.

We here at FR lampoon CNN all the time, but I suspect Yahoo is far more successful at advancing the leftist agenda than CNN.
