#11 Maybe Epps just knew what to do - no instructions needed to get maximum effect. |

#10 Late in the day, just thought I'd throw this in as I finished reading it. The application, going beyond the opera, or modern canned teevee laughter. You decide: Organizing under the title L'Assurance des Success Dramatiques, they leased themselves and their employees to singeers and opera managers who wished to be assured of an appreciative audience response. So effective were they in stimulating genuine audience reaction with their rigged reactions that before long claques (usually consisting of a leader - chef de claque - and several individual claqueurs) had become an established and persistent tradition throughout the world of opera. As music historian Robert Sabin notes, "By 1830 the claque was a full-blown institution, collecting by day, applauding by night, all in the honest open....But it is altogether probable that neither Sauton, or his ally Porcher, had a notion of the extent to which their scheme of paid applause would be adopted and applied wherever opera was sung."

#9 If his business is ‘stooge enticement and entrapment INC’ then I am fine with him going out of business. One of the Jan 6ers might get out of jail someday and may want to talk with Ray |

#8 He lives in a 6 foot diameter magic globe where free speech rights and the right to assembly are sacrosanct. Everybody that listened to him, not so much. |

#7 I can't really say that I'm all that sympathetic about his wife and his business. If he never goes to jail he should at least be in the same class with Monica Lewinski. |

#6 People just naturally attempt to find ways to explain bizarre behavior so if they come up with bizarre conspiracy theories then Epps shouldn't be surprised. Some of those videos sure look to my untrained eye like Epps was inciting a riot. Or maybe he was just urging others to break the law which could perhaps be classified as a conspiracy in itself. But then the FBI never charged him...all the while charging all kinds of other people...which is truly bizarre. |

#5 He was working directly for the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. There are a number of direct calls from his cell phone to the Speaker's Office. He may not of been working directly for the FBI - but he *was* working under Nancy Pelosi. Take all the Jan 6th Committee accusations and replace 'Donald Trump' with 'Nancy Pelosi' and you would be closer to the truth. |

#3 Association of his name with the FBI "ruined his life." How sad... |

#2 Not working for the FBI? So he was freelancing? working for NSA? or some other group? Or is this just a lie? |

#1 With the dozens of fotos and video of Ray Epps activities that day, he's not on any of these lists? Very lucky man that Ray Epps. [sarc off] US DA, District of Columbia Link |
