What were the multiple Epps/pelosi phone calls about?

Oh please. He is actually on tape encouraging the crowd to go into the capital. There are political prisoners sitting in the dc gulag today for much less.

EPPS SHOULD BE ARRESTED FOR INSURRECTION AND TREASON!!

Dudes on film lol reap what you sow MFR

Pictured: Domestic terrorist, still at large

Then, why isn't he in jail. If he was literally inciting violence ON VIDEO? If the entire point for the Jan 6th committee. Is to prosecute everyone/anyone who incited/ committed any attacks on the capital. Why is he the only one who didn't get charged? JustSaying

Nope!!

That's exactly what a fed would say

Please do Ray. Sue them. I can’t wait to see you deposed

Well when he is arrested and imprisoned just like the other Jan 6th participants then I guess he really wasn't working to incite the crowd for 'some reason'. But he has not been arrested although his identity and participation is obvious.

Why retract the claim when it's clearly true.? There's actual video evidence of him causing violence and destruction of property.

Tucker Carlson admits he lies. Fox News has admitted it lied about Trump's attack. I don't put a lot of stock in admitted liars.

When you absolutely have to start an insurrection. Fed Epps

Play the video of Ray Epps saying 'we need to go into the Capitol' and telling his son he 'orchestrated' it...

Lol. He gets what he deserve

He literally, on tape, told people to breach the Capitol. So, yes, he '...provoked violence'

Hell no... He instigated the whole thing and somehow got off Scott free?

« Pro-Trump » please put some quotes around that ! Why do you believe him?

Theres video so….. it never happened?

Lol. Looks like he's trying to sell me hemorrhoid cream, or fishing lures that may or may not have been in his ass, and led to said hemorrhoids.

Fed

Ray Epps, is an FBI agent

Poor guy appealing to the Tuckhead, good tuck with that ya little tucker.

Absolutely every single Fox mouth piece should be brought before congress and made to answer to their lies under oath.

Is he trying to prove he was agitating people on his own? Good. Now he can join the rest of them in jail.

F*ck Ray Epps. He's on video telling people to rush into the capital, yet he seems to be the only person on the capital grounds that day who hasn't faced prosecution -- because he's a government stooge.

Video doesn’t lie, sure looked to me like Ray Epps was provoking violence as people around him were saying we don’t do that and telling Epps he was a plant. Maybe someone doctored the video just to make Ray look bad.

All it takes for a conspiracy is two or possibly one with real mental health issues. The more we hear about the Capitol rampage the less believable it is. I honestly believe it's not what it appears to be. Like it's all meant to stop a real insurrection. A covert operation. fake

Lol, Only a fool doesn’t believe Ray Epps was working for the Feds. It couldn’t be more obvious

He’s literally on video provoking violence

Ray is on multiple videos inciting a riot, why hasn't he been put in solitary confinement for 4 years like the other that were just walking around?

Ideology doesn’t lie and he sure was provoking violence as the crowd was shouting we don’t do that and saying Ray Epps was a plant. Video must have been doctored.

You are an extension of three cabaal party and so is Epps! Excuse while I laugh at your ignorance!

Lock him up he inspired the insurrection

These are the guys that performed most violent acts. You're 14 seconds of violence is due to the FBI.

Why didn't he go to jail?

Pro Trump my ass. FBI plant. Why is it no one can interview him? Feds have him buried somewhere.

Lock him up piece of 💩

Ray Epps was seen on camera standing outside the capital screaming 'we must go into the capital'. Sure, no one believes he was a Fed… Wonder why he wasn't charged with anything and disappeared

Typical NBC never bothered to question Epps activities all videotaped.

They have the proof. This guy should be in jail! Video evidence is there!

Why is he not in jail then?
