The best part about your conspiracy theory is that it can't be debunked because everything becomes part of the conspiracy.

And then he goes on to regurgitate the lies fed to him about antifa being embedded instigators on Jan 6th.
"I can't believe these politicians are spreading lies about me"
But also...
"I still believe this particular subset of lies spread by these very same politicians" >

I reminds me of the end of Operation Odessa. This one dumb ass Russian gangster is super heart broken because his Cuban Spy/Columbian fixer fucked him out of a multimillion dollar deal involving cocaine, Russian submarines and fucking Florida of all places. They all went to prison. >


"We had a tour bus come by our home and our business with all these whacked out people in it," Epps said. "There are good people out there that was in Washington. Those aren't the people that's coming by our house. This attracts — when they do this sort of thing, this attracts all the crazies out there."

Says the man who stormed the capitol for a known conman

From what I saw he never entered any restricted area and might not have gone passed any of the downed barriers. >

Oh, so he only attempted to overthrow democracy.
Thanks for clearing that up. >

Accuracy matters; he might be a shitbird but there is zero proof he went beyond any barriers and he was never charged. >

So does intent. Why was he there that day? >

He could have simply been protesting, which is legal. I hate trump more than the next guy but it’s insane to say that there were zero dumb trump supporters there that “noped” the fuck out when shit went down. 
If he was there and didn’t break a law why should he be arrested? Jordan Klepper was there too, should we arrest him? >

I see your point. However To Jordan Klepper he would fall under “different intent”.
And hoping the fuck out is something that someone should be excused for if they decided early on this was going in the wrong direction… but how do you get to that point without knowing what’s going on? >

Those theories did not ruin your life.  All of us had equal access to those theories.  Very few of us decided to attack the capitol ...... or believe the theories.  This is on you.  You.  Just you. >

Imagine finding out at this late date that 45 is, was and will always be nothing more than a loud mouthed, foul, cheap ass, bigoted con man.  And you threw away any honor you had left as a Marine and are facing significant jail time for being such an easily played tool.
Bitter pill.  Somebody wanna tell him about the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus? >

He still hasn't found out, though. He's still defending Trump and repeating conspiracy theories about Jan 6. >

Yes, that was the point, the cognitive dissonance hasn't bitten him yet but it's coming.  And it's gonna be a massive mind fuck or mind un-fuck.  Prison gives one a goodly bit of time for reflection. >

Let's hope it's a mind un-fuck so there's one less idiot out there. Now, I wonder how many crying nazis we'll get by the time this whole thing is over (assuming it ever is)? People are getting away with essentially slaps in the wrist, but some of those slaps are like 7 years. That's still no joke. >


Even after telling the committee how conspiracy theories had torn apart his life, Epps continued to repeat other unfounded claims about the 2020 election including that "antifa" had infiltrated the mob.

Wait, so after he spoke to committee and tried to explain what a “good guy” he was/is,  he continued to spread The Big Lie after this? am I reading this correctly? 
Also,  earlier in this article it mentions he was “under the impression”  the night before January 6 that the Capitol was going to be open to the public.  Is he this stupid or was this another instance of right-wing disinformation that was spreading before January 6? Or maybe he’s just straight up lying. >

The military doesn't draw the best or the brightest but the easily manipulated followers flourish.  Ours is not to reason why, ours is but to do or die.  And that they do in record numbers. >

It's never their fault, is it? >

He still thinks Trump is a good guy who is just getting some bad info from his staff.
There are none so blind as those who will not see. >

Easier for most people to blame everyone else, even made-up people, than admit they were wrong. >

"Your leg is in a meat grinder."
"No it's not."
"Well...it obviously is."
"That's what the Deep State wants you to believe."
"Okay...fine...but maybe you could at least stop turning that crank?" >

Ha. >

Just the "crazy" ones though, right? >

He's just bummed because he ended up on the receiving end of the conspiratorial mob. Were he the one inflicting the torture he probably would still be fully on board.
Same with Rusty Bowers. That MAGA trash only gave a shit when the mob came for HIM. >

Over at r/conspiracy they're convinced that this is the guy that got thousands of people to storm the Capitol and not the guy who tweeted "be there ... will be wild" >

No one put a gun to your head and forced you to believe in such obvious bullshit, Ray. You have free will and access to all the information the world has to offer. If you ended up delusional it’s your own damn fault for lacking the ability to think clearly and critically as a supposedly functioning adult. And it’s DEFINITELY your fault for supporting Trump after all we know about him
Maybe listen to the millions and millions of people who say something is a bad idea before believing the first person who tells you something you want to hear >

When are the Antifa meetings and are there snacks? Because I am very anti-facists >

I hear they have cookies, chocolate cookies, with a gooey inside.
Please let that not also be a conspiracy. >


Pro-Trump protester

Good thing NBC News isn't normalizing terrorism and sedition. >

Enjoy prison, traitor. >

For being the primary instigator there, his part was quickly dismissed by FBI even before the committee was put together and record deleted while people who did less get 20+ yrs. If that could be cleared up I'm sure people would put to rest the conspiracy >

And yet he's still a republican.. some people don't have the ability to learn. >

The only qualification to be republican, is to be hateful and swear to take down the libruls... he will always be a republican >

No, YOU tore apart your life. You’re saying the match was the source of your problems, not the fact that every day you walked around with your britches full of more and more dynamite. >

Well he's not in jail and that's the most important part. Seems like he got the best outcome possible from his part in it >

Poor fellow >

Take my upvote.  Still chuckling. >

Ray Epps got labeled a FBI mole just because MAGAs were desperate for shifting blame away from themselves and Trump. The "proof" they needed was that he "looked" like a FED, what ever that means. >

For being the primary instigator there, his part was quickly dismissed by FBI even before the committee was put together and record deleted while people who did less get 20+ yrs. If that could be cleared up I'm sure people would put to rest the conspiracy >

He wasn't a primary instigator and if you read the article you would see he was trying to de-escalate things on Jan 6th and didn't even enter the capitol building. >

can you give me one line/sentence showing how he was trying to deescalate >

Answer me this- do you honestly think if he was an FBI affiliate he would actually say come clean? Especially after all the lies that have unfolded in the last year like the HB story being Russian disinfo. They lie more than civilians because they aren't afraid of the repercussions since they'll be backed by the same people that do the arresting
