Ray Epps, subject of Tucker Carlson's Jan. 6 conspiracy theories, charged by DOJ
Epps entered Capitol grounds on Jan. 6 as a supporter of former President Donald Trump. He told the Jan. 6 committee that the conspiracy theories about him ruined his life.

WASHINGTON — Ray Epps, a Jan. 6 participant whose removal from the FBI's Capitol Violence webpage sparked conspiracy theories that he was a federal informant, was charged in connection with the Capitol attack on Tuesday.

Epps is charged with one misdemeanor count, disorderly or disruptive conduct on restricted grounds. He was charged by information, which suggests that he plans to enter a plea deal.

Epps is not charged with entering the Capitol; he is only known to have been on the grounds on Jan. 6. NBC News reached out to lawyers representing Epps, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Well, this could work in Epps's favor, if he gets more than a slap on the wrist, it would/could remove the target off his back by Carlson and others.  ****slapping

More likely, it will just fuel more conjecture.

Charging Ray Epps now for "disorderly conduct" is not going to make the Feds' credibility problem go away
It's too late for them. This is just making them look desperate

@MikeBenzCyber
this is absolutely bleep insane
he’s dead to rights on conspiracy w/ “When We Go In”
There was agreement (“When We Go In”) + act in furtherance (they went in)
That’s 10 years on a felony in a heartbeat if DOJ wanted it
instead lightest misdemeanor possible w/ a Day 1 deal

People who just milled around the Capitol building that day are being sent away for a decade or two in prison. This jagoff actually incited a riot and ... bupkes.

The FBI would have better off to just ignore it and let it fade away. Giving EPPS a stupid silly little misdemeanor when HE was the person managing the whole thing, is just more confirmation that he was acting with the FBI.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Under federal sentencing guidelines, Ray Epps will face between zero and six months in prison after pleading guilty to one count of disorderly conduct.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
