Watching the FBI and DOJ reconstruct the Ray Epps story so he can sue Fox News and Tucker is hysterical.
They know their entire Jan 6 bullshit talking points fall apart with Ray Epps.
They think we’re stupid.
……Now lawyers representing Mr. Epps and his wife are proceeding with plans to sue Fox News for defamation. “We informed Fox in March that if they did not issue a formal on-air apology that we would pursue all available avenues to protect the Eppses’ rights,” said Michael Teter, a lawyer for Mr. Epps who sent the network a cease-and-desist letter asking for an on-air apology and a retraction. After Mr. Teter did not hear from Fox about his request, he began to prepare the suit. “That remains our intent.”
Mr. Epps declined to comment on his potential suit. A Fox News spokeswoman declined to comment.
……The most notable thing is the way Epps disproved the old adage that “no one ever talked themselves out of jail but a lot of people have talked themselves into jail.”
At first, Epps was on the FBI’s most wanted list. Here is the original bulletin.
……On the FBI’s “Capitol Violence Images” website, Epps was “Photograph #16.” In the image below, on the left, you can see the website as it appeared in February 2022 and as it appears today.
Ray Epps, the controversial figure who was captured on video encouraging protesters to enter the Capitol on January 6, 2021, will face criminal charged for his part in the Capitol storming, according to Epps’ attorney.
The impending charges were revealed in a lawsuit against Fox News, which Epps filed on Wednesday accusing the network and former host Tucker Carlson of defamation, which Epps believes ultimately led to the criminal charges.
“Finally, in May 2023, the Department of Justice notified Epps that it would seek to charge him criminally for events on January 6, 2021—two-and-a-half years later,” the lawsuit stated. “The relentless attacks by Fox and Mr. Carlson and the resulting political pressure likely resulted in the criminal charges.”
Video of Epps calling for protesters to enter the Capitol was widely circulated in the wake of Jan. 6. Unlike hundreds of other Americans who were at the Capitol that day, Epps has not been arrested or charged with a crime.
Revolver did an investigative report into the specifics of Epps’ movements along with other operatives who moved around and inside the capitol grounds cutting through fences, removing barriers, with Ray Epps standing front and center giving out directions.
Read all of it. It’s a breakdown of a classic FBI set up.
The FBI framed the 6 January MAGA protesters by inserting undercover agents and informants in the crowd to encourage violence. It backfired, but that’s not stopping the Feds from persecuting people who simply wandered the hallways, stood outside the building, and peacefully protested.
Epps was a Fed plant. He’s been exposed.
The FBI has numerous plants in the crowd that day. Why aren’t Tim Gionet, Luke Phillip Robinson and Ray Epps in solitary confinement with the rest of the political prisoners in their gulag?
BTW:
His current attorney is the managing director of 65 Project. His former attorney worked for the FBI for 9 Years and bashed cops on Twitter.
Strange.
The previous attorney for Ray Epps worked for the FBI for nine years and bashed cops.The current attorney for Ray Epps is director of the 65 Project, a fascist group dedicated to destroying and disbarring any attorney who assists Donald Trump or questions election fraud in America.
As Heather Allen and Patty McMurray 100 Percent Fed Up previously reported – Democrats and the crooked DOJ have gone out of their way to protect the MAGA hat-wearing Ray Epps, but the question just won’t go away—Who is Ray Epps, and what was his role on Jan. 6 and the days preceding the “insurrection” at the US Capitol?
Videos of Ray Epps leading J6 protestors have gone viral on social media, but for some odd reason, he has never been arrested. He has been protected when others have been prosecuted for lesser offenses. Is he an FBI informant? Is he an FBI agent?
Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (KY) has repeatedly been stonewalled by the January 6 Witch Hunt Committee when asking questions about Epp’s identity or his role in the so-called January 6 “insurrection.”
Watch far-left Jan. 6 Witch Hunt Committee member Rep. Jamie Raskin defend Ray Epps after Rep. Thomas Massie asks about Ray Epps. Massie became very defensive about the MAGA hat-wearing Ray Epps as “that poor guy” and asking Republicans to “leave him alone,” and suggested Republicans should be more concerned about Donald Trump’s money-grubbing niece’s accusations against him that have since been thrown out of court by a judge.
When Senator Ted Cruz asked Assistant FBI Director Jill Sanborn, “Was Ray Epps a fed?” She responded, “Senator, I can’t answer that question.” When Cruz pressed Sanborn showing photos of Epps whispering to protestors who then immediately began to pull down barricades, “Did Mr. Epps urge them to tear down the barricades?” Sanborn again said, “I cannot answer that.”
Tucker Carlson asked why the Trump-hating RINO Rep. Adam Kinsinger (IL) continues to defend and even “praise” Ray Epps.
……Dinesh D’Souza posted part of the transcript from Epp’s January 21, 2022, committee questioning. Epps was asked about a text exchange with his nephew. On January 6, 2021, Ray Epps responded to his nephew’s text.
When asked if he was safe, he replied,
“I WAS IN THE FRONT WITH A FEW OTHERS. I ALSO ORCHESTRATED IT.”
……But here’s where things get even more curious—Ray Epp’s attorney’s names are noted in the introduction of the transcript, showing he was represented by John W. Blischak and Andrew Blischak, a father-son duo from Arizona.
John Blischak was an FBI agent in Ohio for 9 years before moving to Phoenix, Arizona, where he became an attorney.
Shortly after, Epps was asked to have his counsel introduce himself, stating his name for the record. Mr. Blischak identified himself, saying, “Yes. My name is John W. Blischak. I will be representing Mr. Epps throughout the course of this investigation.”
……John’s biography from his “about us” page says that Mr. Blischak worked for the FBI as an agent for nine years, first in Cleveland, then in Phoenix, before working as a Maricopa county prosecutor and eventually going into private practice in 1987:
“Mr. John W. Blischak was born in Steubenville, Ohio. After graduating from law school in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1975, John W. Blischak embarked on a rewarding nine-year career as an FBI Agent with the U.S. Department of Justice, commencing in Cleveland and thereafter transferring to Phoenix. Wanting to seek independence and a challenge, Mr. Blischak voluntarily left the FBI and commenced a three-year stint as a prosecutor in the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office in the complex white-collar crime unit where the invaluable trial experience was accumulated, and thereafter Mr. Blischak ventured into sole practice in 1987.”
All this shit is no coincidence. It’s planned. His lawyer was probably referred by the FBI. After all, they owe him.
