The DOJ is recommending only 6 months in jail for Ray Epps, the guy who is on tape telling people to enter the Capitol 🤔
I don't quite understand how justice works in this country, especially when it comes to iNsUrReCtIoNs. We've got dudes serving ten, fifteen, twenty years behind bars for their roles in January 6th, and Ray Epps is gonna get six months?
I always thought something was fishy about him. You’d think the ones most hysterical about insurrection would be hunting him down. Clearly he is an informant
Careful, that's still a far-right conspiracy theory until the media finally says it isn't.
I guess I’m feeling rebellious
He incited it. He spoke to the people storming the barricade just a few seconds before they charged into it, in full view of cameras. If it were ever proven that he's an FBI agent, or an informant, then that would lead to an immediate dismissal of all charges against the useful idiots.
Yep. Thats why I became very suspicious when the media was so quiet about him
Not just quiet -- they went into full defense mode for him.
He's a fed.
I know o shouldn’t let it annoy me but a real journalist would’ve investigated him
They actually did claim to investigate him at one point and the NYT iirc ran a whole article on his being unfairly targeted by right wing conspiracy theorists
Sounds about right for the NYT
