A new report provides fresh evidence that infamous January 6 provocateur Ray Epps may have been an FBI plant.
In the first of a two-part series, “Truth in Media” host Lara Logan spoke with Anthime Gionet, also known as “Baked Alaska,” a right-wing influencer formerly associated with the “alt right.” Video footage from January 5, 2021 and earlier indicate that Epps appeared to be particularly interested in Gionet, who was later sentenced to two months in prison for his participation in the riot at the US Capitol.
Gionet (Baked Alaska) was one of several people who filmed Epps on the evening of January 5, 2021 outside BLM Plaza as he told Trump supporters “we need to go into the Capitol!” At first, Gionet said he was amused by Epps’ exhortation to breach the Capitol, and yelled ‘let’s go!’ in response, but after he saw him repeat the line several times to different groups that night, he became convinced the “boomer” was an FBI plant and was up to no good.
Gionet is the one who started the “Fed! Fed! Fed!” chant that went viral on social media.
“I’m someone who creates funny content so I just like to agree with everyone and if someone’s saying something crazy, a lot of times, I’ll just agree—say yeah, yeah,” Gionet said, explaining that he does it to encourage a subject to keep talking.
But the activist said he felt “weirded out” by Epps and quickly moved on to another group. “I’m like, I’m getting away from this creep, he’s weirding me out,” Gionet said. “I’m getting weird vibes—something’s off.”
Gionet told Logan that everyone else who heard Epps talking about going into the Capitol were also taken aback.
“I go to another group way far away from him, he follows me, and that’s when he begins instructing the crowd,” Gionet said. That’s when Epps was caught on tape again saying “we need to go into the Capitol.”
“Right when he said that, something clicked in my head,” Gionet said. “It was like, whoa! This is scripted because he said the same exact line word for word three times and that’s not natural.”
Gionet said that it seemed very odd that he kept going around to all the different little groups and instructing them on what to do on January 6.
“Maybe the first time, he’s being silly or saying something crazy, but when he said it the third time word for word, I knew there’s a strong possibility this guy’s a fed. I started that chant, and guess what? The whole crowd joined in with me—within seconds!”
Gionet told Logan that that viral moment felt spiritual to him at the time.
“That was the spirit moving. That was God saying ‘somethings up here. Watch out, there’s something going on.’ And that’s what I felt in my heart as a believer, truly,” he said.
Shortly before midnight, Epps took a conciliatory tone with Gionet, telling him they he also despises Black Lives Matter and antifa.
“I stood ’em down myself with three Army vets in Queen Creek, Arizona,” Epps said.
“That’s where I live!” Gionet exclaimed. “Are you my neighbor?!”
After more friendly banter, Epps said “”we’re not here to fight man. He then leaned in and whispered “we’re here to storm the Capitol,” and added: “I’m not kidding.”
Logan noted that Epps’ words echoed the official narrative the next day—that Trump supporters “stormed the Capitol” before “it was broadcast across the nation.”
Gionet, aka Baked Alaska, said that because he had been banned from every social media platform, it was virtually impossible for him to tell his story, and so for the first year after J6, nobody heard a word about Epps.
“I thought it was a big story but I was banned off Twitter, I was banned off YouTube, I was banned off all social media so I couldn’t get the story out,” he explained. He acknowledged that he had no proof that Epps was a “fed,” but remains convinced that he was.
Former Washington DC FBI Field Office chief Steven D’Antuono has acknowledged in sworn testimony that the Bureau had so many informants on the ground on January 6 that they lost track and had to order an audit to account for all of them.
Federal prosecutors finally filed a criminal charge against Epps in September.
The former Marine and Oath Keepers member was charged with a single misdemeanor count of disruptive or disorderly conduct in a restricted area in U.S. District Court in Washington in September, despite his lead role in orchestrating chaos on that day. The charge carries a maximum punishment of a year in prison.
In part two of Truth in Media’s report on Ray Epps, Logan interviewed a friend of Epps. The woman said that “something happened after he left the Oath Keepers until January 6. What, I don’t know but those are two different people.”
Part two, which will air next week, also features a video clip of Epps photographing Gionet without his knowledge during a Trump rally in Phoenix.
I had to stop because they tossed up a Subscription Link to see the rest of Part 1.
I had seen some Video windows but before I could access them they hit Me with the Subscription Box.
I'll try to find Part 2 next week....
More on sleazeball ray epps and his role in the J6 FRAUD PROJECT.
And it’s being “stormed” again by Muslim terrorists and their snotty-nosed, retarded, Ivy League white boyz and gurlz who need the U.S. Taxpayers to buy their “college participation pimplomas” for them.
The only J8er that thr MSM defends
When the FBI became an agency inside our borders that uses counterintelligence methods of trickery against the citizens, that’s the moment in time that the FBI became something evil, reminiscent of East Germany post WWII.
Unfortunately, he will walk.
Tell you something else though, Ray is now a CELEBRITY!
And as we all know, a celebrity can't go anywhere without being recognized by someone.
Hi, Ray. We know you're lurking here. How you likin' the celebrity life... wherever you are?
This is a must-see Video. I am looking forward to Part 2.
I didn’t think of it from that standpoint, but that’s a good point.
Meanwhile,yesterday, A White House fence was vandalized Saturday night with red paint as pro-Palestinian protesters shook the gate to one entrance to the executive mansion as some chanted “F—k Joe Biden,” the New York Post reported.
The demonstrators also covered the General Marquis de Lafayette Statue in nearby Lafayette Park with graffiti and Palestinian flags, according to social media posts.
A building in Washington D.C. was vandalized with graffiti messages reading, “Death to Israel” and “Glory 2 the Martyrs,” as thousands of protesters descended on the nation’s capital to protest on the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
“In our backyard: “Death to Israel” and “Glory to our Martyrs,” among other violent antisemitic graffiti spotted in Washington DC. #WhereIsTheOutrage,” the Israeli embassy to the United States said in an X post Saturday.
The footage showed a series of graffiti messages reading, “Free Gaza” and “F—k Israel.”

Yeah, but they won’t do anything to them because they’re SCARED OF THEM BEING OFFENDED !!!
}{€££, a few weeks ago they took him a care package with MAGA Hats and other Trump items, probably tossed in a few new burner phones to finish out the box.
Did You ever think that We’d have our very own STAZI ?!
I wish they would all go play in the Interstate Highway.
Hopefully off the edge of the Grand Canyon while he’s in Arizona...
LOL !!!
fibbys and all the other alpha butt groups are and have been here for decades.
It pisses Me off the crap they get away with !!!
Epps is now a loose end, and will be gone when nobody is watching, by the same people he does work for. This J6 mess is going sideways on them. It was their show. It’s reviews aren’t going to go well. Keep up the pressure no matter how long it takes.
I could live with that. 👍
