The Trumpcult keeps throwing the name out there, obvious "whataboutism" to distract as Jan 6th approaches

The right is now trying to imply that Epps was sent by the FBI or antifa.

That unshaven, rough looking guy, got paid by someone on the right to attend that gathering and get up and tell those lies.

(53,784 posts)Now they're trying to say Epps was working with the FBI and antifa and is proof that the FBI and antifa are the cause of the Jan. 6 insurrection, not trump and the republicans, despite all the trump flags the insurrectionists were carrying as they stormed the Capitol building.
That is of course ridiculous as we all saw trump, Mo Brooks, Guiliani, trump jr. and others incite the crowd to walk to the Capitol building and "take back our country."
And we all know FBI agents and other LEOs are by and large republicans and trumpers and certainly wouldn't be working with antifa.
