#1 J6 committee releases Ray Epps’ testimony

But, but, but wait! Why would the J6 committee call "Trump insurrectionist" Epps forward to testify ?

Were there others? No, just Ray Epps. Curious, no ?

#3 "Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving." - David Burge@iowahawkblog

Media curiosity stops being curious when they're told to by their 'betters'.

#4 I don’t think they can allow him to testify. He might just plead the 5th. This will be interesting to see which way it goes. I would like to see John Sullivan called as well.

#5 Media as a willing/clueless partner to propaganda/disinformation was first revealed for me in an insider spy novel. Interesting how it presaged so much of what has happened since.

#6 The majority of the people at J6 with Trump MAGA Hats on backwards were part of a group, part of Black Bloc and others factions affiliated with Antifa and Occupy.

#7 IIRC there is footage of the portable fence barricade being turned sideways into scaling ladders - and it looked organized and well rehearsed.

Entrants through the windows looked like they had assignments, moving with a clarity of direction and location.

#8 The Great Muppet Caper starring Billy the Buffalo was so obviously produced and staged, but I guess there is -shall I say always has been- video of capital police escorting him from wardrobe to stage.

#9 Seems odd that he got a police escort to his crime, committed his crime, was seized for his crime and then pleaded to multi years of incarceration for what he did. If there had been an available folding chair for some next level silly mayhem, would it be more surprising?

#10 I'm curious what happened to the other Muppets both during the play, and if they had been arrested.

Billy the Buffalo stole the show (too much so I think they decided) but there were a number of other faces: Satan's Eyebrow, Confederate Doughnuts, LL Bean Cowboy, etc.

#11 The FBI often arrests its own assets and then releases them. None of the Clown Posse got charged. Only Patriots we’re charged unless they put someone inside as an infiltrator.
