The Ray Epps saga is not weird at all if you have been red pilled. Everything that the Democrats/communist are doing is intentional and the end game is absolute power. This includes the 100,000 deaths from fentanyl every year, the 10,000 or so deaths from illegal aliens, the million(s) of deaths from the covid shot... All of it is intentional to create chaos and force the stupid and the naive to back the neo-communist Democrats. The CDC along with all the federal agencies, was weaponized for this political plan and they killed perhaps over a million Americans since stealing the election. THAT is how low your Democrat party has sunk. But make no mistake the Republicans know what happened and they did nothing to stop it.

The CDC failed at its mission decades ago. Its a pharma captured institution.

Normalizing mental illness of transexuals is a California specialty. They also normalize drug and other mental health issues by allowing crapping in the streets and tenting on the sidewalks. They even solved the needle shortage.

There is no hate speech exemption in the 1st Amendment.

Rational for Ukraine money... As always, 10% for all involved in the military industrial complex.

I think Noam Chomsky - not someone I'm generally inclined to agree with! - got it right on the mark when he stated:

"If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."

There is nothing incredible or weird about the Ray Epps story, and applying these descriptors only serves to elevate it away from common-sense reasoning. It was a dirty-tricks operation. Epps led a conventional subversive action with a team of co-conspirators. Their actions were coordinated and are on camera for most of the scripted activities. There is little doubt what their goals were: To steer people toward the Capital building after removing the barricades themselves and making it appear as an open pathway (which it normally is), all of which was recorded, and the events took place in anticipation of Trump completing his speech.

The only doubts remaining are whose interests they were representing, and whose orders they were following. And Epps et al have been exempted from the scrutiny and process that would get to the bottom of this; which instead is being focused on ordinary people that are now in custody under rather horrific conditions. Revolver has done some pretty good work on this:

To bad the resources of the bigger media outlets aren't interested, because it would be a money-making story.

The story would "drown" Watergate. But the media are driven by ideology and not by justice.

Aggie: The only doubts remaining are whose interests they were representing, and whose orders they were following.

Epps testified that he was not working for any government agency. (See pg 5, pg 88: "The only time I've been involved with the government was when I was a Marine in the United States Marine Corps.")

Was Mr. Epps placed under oath before giving this testimony?

Mr. Epps. Yes.

That's an interesting statement, an answer to a question. So it looks like he wasn't placed under oath - if that's your answer.

#3.2.2.1 Aggie on 2023-01-02 14:53 (Reply)

Aggie: So it looks like he wasn't placed under oath - if that's your answer.

No, but it is still illegal to lie to Congress. That doesn't mean Epps didn't lie, but that is stronger evidence than making stuff up.

No. Start at 15:40 on the C-Span url below and you will note how it's done when one of your heroes has decided to get to the bottom of things.

You see how it's done, when it suits? Yes, of course you do.

Aggie: You see how it's done, when it suits?

That doesn't address the point. Under penalty of law, Epps testified that he wasn't working with the FBI or any other government agency. That is stronger evidence than making sh!t up.

Zach is our resident far left troll who leans communist and lies for a living. Ask yourself why would he be defending/covering for Epps? Hmmmmm!!!

#3.2.2.2.3.1 OneGuy on 2023-01-02 16:11 (Reply)

OneGuy: leans communist

As we hold that private property is a bulwark of liberty and the engine of economic prosperity, that would mean we are not communist.

OneGuy: defending/covering for Epps?

Was Epps a plant for the government or just another one of the crazies down on Capitol Hill?

We provided evidence. Your reply was an ad hominem, a fallacy of diversion.

Comrade Epps? Always known to the FIB as are all Long March fellow traveler true believers.
He is with the "in" group and you should go along to get along as part of the glorious new civility unity.
Or it won't end well for you.
Forward! Yes you can.

What will 2023 bring? For the first time in my life, there were no eggs in the grocery store - Safeway. Empty spaces on store shelves are a consistent reality. Before Christmas we couldn’t find sugar. Many other shoppers said they had been to other stores and couldn’t find sugar either. My last energy bill was $15 dollars shy of $400 bucks. Therms and kw hours nearly identical from the previous year, despite the avg daily temperature being ten degrees colder.

What brought on the egg shortage in Colorado? The government. The grand thinkers in Denver decided that the twelve people calling for cage free eggs are right. So they passed legislation to make it law that only cage free eggs can be sold in Colorado. End result: A shortage of eggs and record prices. Who could have seen this coming? Milton Friedman, Walter Williams and a long list of other free market economists.

In the Inflation Reduction Act (hahaaaha) are increases on energy: $6.5 Billion Natural Gas Tax; $12 Billion Crude Oil Tax; $1.2 Billion Coal Tax. The oil gas tax is pegged to inflation. Can’t say that I look forward to a $600 dollar energy bill come December.

For a man that promised not to raise taxes on Americans making under $400,000 per year, this sure is disappointing. Joe Biden has never lied about anything before, has he? Gosh, I’m just dumbfounded. I sure didn’t think people in Government lied about things.

Happy New Year!

Fauci Fibbed on the Day Everything Changed . . . We mapped out many times already that there was plenty of information available, even in the popular press, that this bug would be more-or-less like the flu, except with an extreme age gradient

More than a million Americans died from COVID, more than ten times higher than the seasonal flu. Without the vaccine, the death toll would have been hundreds of thousands higher.

More than a million Americans tested positive for Covid when they died.

CDC has finally found their real calling in public indoctrination. What a sad, disgraced and woeful organization they are.

Italy cracking down on illegal immigration by going after the NGO's that aid and abet it is textbook fascism. Or Nazism. Or transphobia. Or anti-science. Or something. It's really bad and evil and mean-spirited I'm sure.
