New in PJ Media:
The media love affair with the most suspicious person involved with the Left’s Jan. 6 hoax, Ray Epps, continues. On Sunday evening, 60 Minutes is planning to air a profile of Epps, a man whom they claim has been unjustly vilified in the conservative media. In doing so, they’re just calling new attention to the gaping holes in their Jan. 6 propaganda narrative.
The Leftist political and media elites have been insisting ever since Jan. 6, 2021, that the disturbance at the Capitol on that day constituted an “insurrection,” an actual attempt to overthrow the government of the United States and, presumably, to install Donald Trump as a dictator. Over the intervening two years, the Left’s case has steadily unraveled, and one of the most glaring examples of its weakness has been the curious case of Epps. Amid all the hysteria about “MAGA Republicans” supposedly determining to storm the Capitol and overthrow the government, Epps is the only person who was captured on video actually exhorting people to enter the building. Yet instead of being arrested, Epps has become a media darling. Suspicious? In the extreme.
First, it was the New York Times. In July 2022, the Paper of Record lamented that “Ray Epps has suffered enormously in the past 10 months as right-wing media figures and Republican politicians have baselessly described him as a covert government agent who helped to instigate the attack on the Capitol last year.” It quoted the poor target himself saying, “It’s just been hell.” Speaking of hell, the Times did not address the fact that people who, unlike Epps, never told anyone to storm the Capitol have languished in prison without trial for over two years now, in shocking conditions. They never got a Times puff piece in which they were given a chance to complain about how bad it has been, either.
And now 60 Minutes is stepping up to the plate, tweeting on Friday, “In conservative media, Ray Epps is a notorious villain, responsible for turning the protests on January 6 into a riot. It is a convoluted conspiracy theory he denies. He’s now in hiding, facing death threats. This Sunday, Epps sits down with 60 Minutes.”
A convoluted conspiracy theory? Really? How convoluted is this? Ray Epps is on video on Jan. 5, 2021, saying, “I’m gonna put it out there. I’m probably gonna go to jail for it, okay?” He didn’t. “Tomorrow, we need to go into the Capitol. Into the Capitol.” The people around him in the video aren’t buying it and start chanting, “Fed! Fed! Fed!”
There is more. Read the rest here.

There’s Epp and there’s this myzterious woman with black glasses and a megaphone. She appears in one video I’ve never seen again. She is there at an open window coaching the hapless goofs as they enter the building. She gives them exact instructions, telling them the floor plan, all kinds of details where specific offices are. She’s an insider of some kind. I would like to see that video be brought to attention and examined. Who is she? How does she know all this?
Walter Sieruk says
That deceptive insidious villain ,Ray Epps, must be either a secret left wing fed or ab Antifa operative who infiltrated into the pro-Trump American patriots masquerading as one of them the incited violence and mayhem in order the give the real patriots a bad name. That is an old low tactic that known as a “false flag ploy.”
Most likely he’s be a secret inside informant working for the FBI as part of a leftist despicable deceptive schemed set up against the patriots. For there haven’t been any legal charges filed or pressed against him.
For the FBI is no longer the grand all American law enforcement institution that it once had been in the past , because it had now been penetrated influenced infected and corrupted by the subversive Red/ Leftists/ Green alliance.
Walter Sieruk says
Ray Epps is either from Antifa or most probably he’s an operative of that corrupted and Red /Green alliance infiltrated FBI all played a sinister role in that horrendous and insidious set up against the all American patriots on the day of January 6, 2021 at Washington DC.

The FBI questioned Epps, They must of found out what other Government Agency he was working with and had to cut him loose.

Ted Cruz wants to know who Ray Epps is:

“I can’t answer that.” As soon as she said that she should have been arrested & lead out of there in handcuffs for obstructing Congress. Then the next day another FBI official should have been there & asked the same questions. If they said the same thing they should be arrested too. Process continues until somebody starts talking to Congress.
