Is that the lightest sentence that's been given?

Ray Epps, the man who directed people to go into the Capitol and privately claimed credit for orchestrating the Capitol breach, gets one year probation. Nothing to see here! https://t.co/mlUr0mtur2

[OP, same advice for you as we gave other users already. This is also a PSA for all users. We don't want this forum to be another form of twitter or bulletin board thread starts. If you start a thread, post your content and post your own short summary and "take" as a way to frame the discussion for the thread. And when you start a thread, be committed to engaging in the discussion. THREAD STARTS have a different standard than a post in a thread. We also have different expectations for the OP of threads than a thread contributor. We would rather have a lower number of thread starts per day with higher quality engagement within the threads started. OP, please don't take this as us picking on you. We are trying to make a larger point for all users on the forum. Thank you to all users for helping us maintain and even raise the level of discussion on this forum in 2024. -Staff]

Still waiting on that congressional subpoena from Jim Jordan.

Any day now I guess.

They're not even trying to hide it. Just going through the motions so that the MSM sycophants can claim that justice has been served.

Well when you have liberals, and concerned moderates saying "buhbuhbuh Donald drumph!" 24/7 why would you hide anything?

These people have taken the bait on every single MSM news story, from covid & Russian collusion to the sham trial against DJT & the stupid J6 protest.

They can't be convinced untill their personal decisions make everyone's life so difficult that they have no other choice than to acknowledge they've been wrong.

The FBI is a joke.

Never, ever vote for a democrat.

Paid agitator...

His community service wil probably be signing up voters at nursing homes

There's no need to hide it. Our country is being overtaken right in front of us and we do nothing.

Conspiracy theories...LOL ...AP is / was / remains an effing joke.

So why would the FBI/DOJ make a statement that they are investigating people who never entered the capital but were just walking around outside? If the main agitator only gets 1yr probation, why bother prosecuting people who were simply in the area? Weird.

By design.

FIFY.

Because there is not an ounce of integrity amongst the FBI and DOJ?

Honestly asking because I don't know, but did Ray Epps ever go into the Capitol? Because, if so, there is literally no way to justify or explain this.

I actually haven't seen video of him going in, but you're highlighting something important.

If he was encouraging everyone to go in, but didn't himself...why? Is he just one of those jerks that likes to try and convince others to do something wrong, so he can watch without consequences? Or is something else going on.

Epps never entered the capital. The day before J6 and the day of he was telling people to go into the capital. It's on video.

He is seen on video the day before telling people to go inside the capitol (the crowd immediately starts calling him a fed). He is seen on video the day of telling people to go inside the capitol. He is seen at multiple "flash points" where barricades were broken down to get towards and access to the capitol. Then, almost as if he KNOWS the ONE thing that will matter, he doesn't enter the capitol and retreats (with his "followers"). That's all on video. And then the very next day has a change of heart and hates fox news and Trump.

It's so damn obvious.

Our whole government is joke. At this point I have zero faith that they can do anything correct, or fix anything that's currently wrong. IMO the government is completely corrupt. Not sure it can be fixed.

Put your faith in God, family, community. Heed the parable of the unjust steward. Prepare for eternal dwellings, and make sure you have your earthly affairs in order. I have no idea what the future holds, but it doesn't look good. I'm focused on my family, and my church family. These will see you through.

I completely agree. It's obvious that something is up.

The confusion, or inability to connect the dots is one hallmark of US counterintelligence operations in other countries based on what I've read...feels like military tactics are being turned on the public.

This....at the absolute very least, he is a pathetic sack of sh** coward...who tries to incite young impressionable people into taking actions he is too big of a coward to take himself. The fact that so many media outlets and leftists have defended him and shown sympathy, when he should be one of the biggest villains to the "OMG INSURRREEEEECTION" bozos, says it all imo.

ROM1:18-32

18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualitieshis eternal power and divine naturehave been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creatorwho is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Amen!

God's allowing this to happen for a reason. Theres more at work in the world than just us, and it's very easy to let worry/concern develop Into anger at others, which I'm definitely guilty of.

Take care of what is in your control. Give the rest to God.

Put your faith in God, not government.

There are no political solutions. Only spiritual ones. If we want out of this mess convert your friends, and neighbors to the gospel. Then the votes will follow.
