I would explain most of it by libs reflexively opposing anything Republicans attack out of partisanship. So since the Right went after this guy hard, the Left starts defending him.
That makes sense, but it's a little too much even considering that. The right attacks plenty of people they don't defend.
I do think Congress should call whoever makes the charging decisions for 1/6ers & ask why Ray Epps was not charged. Congress can subpoena records as to whether Ray Epps was ever in contact with the Feds & with Republican control of the House there is no reason why they wouldn't do so.
Republicans are regime operatives just as much as Democrats are. They just pretend to be the opposition. Maybe the Twenty Rebels can get something like that done.
Personally though I see it as a dead end & my focus is 100x more on the Biden China bribery scandal we have unfolding right now. Biden ought to be impeached & sent to prison over this & what Hunter was saying to the ChiComs on WhatsApp.
That is probably the more politically advantageous strategy.
