Jan 6th......................Question

Epps did exactly what Trump did. He told everyone else to go overturn the election and then stood back and watched.

Then the FBI trolled the insurrectionists by not arresting him. He got upset and tried to sue the FBI for not arresting him. Brilliant.

Defamation lawsuit
Epps' lawyers served a cease and desist letter to Fox News on March 23, 2023, demanding that they stop repeating "malicious lies about his involvement in the events of January 6th."[21][22] In July 2023, Epps commenced litigation against Fox News, after he accused Tucker Carlson and other hosts of perpetuating false claims that Epps was an agent provocateur,[4] working for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).[10] According to the FBI, Epps "has never been an FBI source or an FBI employee".[11] Epps hired the same legal counsel that Dominion Voting Systems used in their successful litigation against Fox News.[23] Michael Teter, Epps' lawyer, said, "The fact that people like Joe Rogan continue to propagate the lie that Ray Epps participated in a false flag operation to instigate the Jan. 6 riots demonstrates the widespread and lasting harm that Fox News has done to Ray".[24]

On November 27, 2024, a federal judge dismissed the defamation lawsuit, saying Epps did not provide enough evidence that Fox and Carlson had engaged with malice.[25]
