‘Clearly Got A Break’: Legal Experts Weigh In On Ray Epps’ Probation Sentence
"Mr. Epps clearly got a break”
Newly surfaced J6 video shows Ray Epps whisper to right-wing influencer: 'We're here to storm the Capitol'
Newly surfaced footage allegedly shows Ray Epps rallying people to go into the Capitol building the night before the riot in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6, 2021.
Truth in Media released previously unseen video clips of Epps reportedly urging supporters of former President Donald Trump to go "into the Capitol."
Footage shows Epps purportedly instructing the crowd, "I'm gonna put it out there – I'm probably going to go to jail for it, okay – tomorrow, we need to into the Capitol! Into the Capitol!"
Video shows some people at the impromptu "Stop the Steal" rally reacting by saying, "No!" Others booed the idea of storming the Capitol, and some are heard chanting: "Fed! Fed! Fed! Fed!"
Epps appears to respond by ordering the crowd to infiltrate the Capitol building "peacefully."
The eye-opening footage was taken by Anthime "Tim" Gionet – best known as right-wing influencer Baked Alaska.
Last January, the Trump-supporting livestreamer was sentenced to 60 days in prison after pleading guilty to a single misdemeanor count of parading, demonstrating, or picketing inside a Capitol building.
Epps is apparently seen on video telling Gionet, "In fact tomorrow – I don't even like to say it because I'll be arrested – we need to go in to the Capitol."
Baked Alaska reacts by telling other Trump supporters, "I didn't see that coming."
Gionet walks away from Epps.
However, Epps interacts with Gionet 10 minutes later.
The night before the Capitol riot, Baked Alaska's livestream video appears to show Epps leaning in to whisper to Gionet, "We're not here to fight man. We're here to storm the Capitol."
Baked Alaska laughs off the idea.
Epps allegedly replies, "I'm not kidding."
Gionet then dismisses Epps, "Alright, have a good night, be safe. Be safe brother.
Speaking of Epps' orders to go into the Capitol, Gionet told journalist Lara Logan, "This is scripted because he said the same exact line word for word three times and that’s not natural."
In September, Epps pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor charge of disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted area.
Epps has consistently denied that he is an informant or a federal agent – including during testimony before the Jan. 6 House select committee and in a "60 Minutes" interview.

Merrick Garland’s ‘60 Minutes’ Interview Was Pure Political Propaganda

A former top FBI official testified that numerous confidential human sources attended or participated in the Jan. 6 riot.
On The Darkest Day In American History, Ray Epps Was Just A Little Rascal
We’ll finally be able to rest — safe and sound and smug — knowing all the Tucker Carlson-fueled conspiracies about Epps being an FBI informant have been put to bed. He was a wee bit disorderly. Case closed.Ray Epps comes out of hiding in BIZARRE '60 Minutes' interview
While it seems no one truly knows exactly who caused January 6, there are many who speculate that Ray Epps had a hand in it.
Sara Gonzales of "The News & Why it Matters" wonders why he “magically” has no charges.
“Like, who is Ray Epps? Is he involved with the FBI? The administration constantly stonewalls this now that we have constant questions about Ray Epps.”
"60 Minutes" recently ran what Gonzales calls a “puff piece” on Ray Epps, and it doesn’t seem to answer any questions.
In the piece, Epps claims that Tucker Carlson is “obsessed” with him and has gone to “any means possible” to “destroy” his life.
Epps says that he was once a loyal Fox News watcher and doesn’t know how he was cast as the villain as he was supposedly just like everyone else there who believed that the 2020 election had been stolen from Donald Trump.
Gonzales accuses him of “gaslighting the American people.”
She continues, “It’s all these other people’s fault for inciting an insurrection even though he is the one literally inciting an insurrection on camera, and somehow he’s the victim.”
Epps goes on to claim that when he saw the violence, he wanted to enter the building in order to be a peacemaker.
“Isn’t it fascinating,” Gonzales wonders, “that the media has spent two years demonizing every single person who was in Washington, D.C., at the time of the protest and calling for them to be seemingly imprisoned for the rest of their lives?”
She continues, “But somehow, this one gets to go on '60 Minutes' and do an exclusive interview, and this so happens to be the one that doesn’t add up at all.”
