GOP Congressman Goes For This Leftist Hack’s THROAT

Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin (Md.) was railed by a GOP congressman during a House Judiciary Committee hearing regarding January 6th provocateur Ray Epps on Wednesday.

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.) told Raskin that he finds it “odd” that the politicized committee is “defending one of the people who assaulted the Capitol.”

Raskin asked, “Defending who?” and Massie replied, “Ray Epps.” Raskin is a part of the committee investigating the January 6 protest.

“I literally have no idea what you’re talking about,” Raskin said when Massie accused him of “defending” Epps. Epps was seen acting so suspiciously the night before January 6 that a crowd of people accused him of being a federal provocateur.

Revolver News founder Darren Beattie highlighted this clip from Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee where January 6 Committee member Jamie Raskin tells GOP Rep. Thomas Massie that he does not know who Ray Epps is.

The exchange occurred during an extended partisan debate about January 6 during an unrelated House Judiciary Committee markup on Wednesday.

‘100 Percent Fed Up’  original report from October 2021:

On October 21, 2021, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) showed an interesting video today while questioning Attorney General Merrick Garland. The video included a montage of clips showing an alleged “Trump supporter” inciting people on January 5 and again on January 6th to breach the Capitol.

Massie addressed the curious video of Ray Epps with AG Garland, “As far as we can determine, the individual who was saying he’ll ‘probably go to jail’ and he’ll ‘probably be arrested,’ but he wants everyone—-they need everyone to go into the Capitol the next day, is then the next day seen directing people into the Capitol. But as far as we can tell, this individual has not been charged with anything. You said this was one of the most sweeping investigations in history.” Massie asked Garland, “So, have you seen this video or those frames from the video?”

Garland refused to comment on the video, claiming immunity because the incident is currently under investigation.

“Ok, I was hoping today to give you the opportunity to put to rest the concerns that people have that there were federal agents or assets of the federal government present on January 5th or January 6th,” Massie said, asking, “Can you tell us without talking about particular incidents or particular videos how many agents or assets of the federal government were present on January 6th, whether they agitated to go into the Capitol and if any of them did?”

“So, I’m not gonna violate this norm of the rule of law. I’m not gonna comment on an investigation that’s ongoing,” the uncomfortable AG replied.

Only five days after the so-called “insurrection,” Arizona Central reported about the man seen in the video, who is allegedly from Arizona. The article shares several videos of the MAGA hat man who called for Trump supporters to join him on January 6th to “go inside the Capitol.”  All but one of the accounts that posted the videos have been removed from YouTube, Instagram, and dLive TV.

Here’s a closer look at the Jan 5 video showing the MAGA hat-wearing man on January 5th encouraging Trump supporters to go inside the Capitol building on Jan 6. Epps is cautious with his words. He appears to be encouraging Trump supporters standing around him to ignore the consequences of their actions, saying he may “get arrested,” but he doesn’t care. During their fake conversation, Epps shouts, “We need to go into the Capitol” on January 6th.  The guy with the camera (potentially another federal agent?) shouts, “Let’s go!” as he turns to the unidentified person conveniently filming their conversation and smiles.

On Jan 11, 2022, during a US Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) exposed how the FBI is potentially covering for Ray Epps when he asked FBI National Security Branch Executive Assistant Director Jill Sanborn whether or not FBI agents or confidential informants played a role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incident that Democrats and their allies in the media have labeled an “insurrection” and “domestic terror attack.”

“Did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of January 6th? Yes or no?” Sen. Cruz asked.

FBI’s Jill Sanborn: “I can’t answer that.”

Senator Cruz began to ask more direct questions about Ray Epps, a man who was seen on Jan 5 encouraging Trump supporters to go inside the Capitol on Jan. 6. Mr. Epps was also seen in several cases encouraging Trump supporters to breach the Capitol throughout the day.

Cruz asked Jill Sanborn a direct question about Ray Epps: “Ms. Sanborn, was Ray Epps a fed?”

Ms. Sanborn replied: “Sir, I cannot answer that question.”

“Ms. Sanborn, a lot of Americans are concerned that the Federal Government deliberately encouraged illegal and violent conduct on January 6th. My question to you—and this is not an ordinary law enforcement question—this is a question about public accountability—Did federal agents, or those in service of federal agents, actively encourage violent and criminal conduct on January 6th?” Cruz said.

“Not to my knowledge,” a defiant Sandborn responded.
