#1 Epps is "not about to be charged" with anything. This is simply another shot at Carlson. The Kabuki theater continues.

#2 Let me pose a legitimate question.

Given it has been established that Gov. Agents were implanted in the Jan 6th protest to cause issues. That it has been factually shown that these Gov. Agents, steered and/or instigated otherwise peaceful protesters into the commission of certain unknowingly legal violations.

Shouldn't those agents be held and charged also?

OR

Is the DOJ applying selective enforcement for political control and revenge .

So wouldn't the clear evidence of ENTRAPMENT negate the charges and many of these trials?

Either way being at the scene of a legal political protest does not make a person the subversive or criminal. Otherwise, Law Enforcement would have to arrest a 1,000 YouTubers - using cellphones a day.

#4 He may be charged to take the heat off of him and the steam out of the Epps example. Fang Fang and Shifty will make hay with it. His case will drag out. Someone will pay his lawyer. He will not be incarcerated pre-trial for his safety. It will drag out past the 2024 campaign.

#5 If he was actually charged because of media pressure - that's another whole world of selective enforcement.

But if he is charged, I think it would be because the DOJ hopes to relieve the building pressure - "See, we charged him; now shut up!"

#6 Pressure release valve. This does have a certain whiff of fear to it.

#7 To paraphrase Pelosi "We have to make the charges so we can dismiss the charges."

#8 If they charge him and dismiss the charges, he becomes insulated from being charged again.
He wanted insurance.

#9 Double jeopardy applies to being acquitted at trial. Prosecutors re-file charges all the time.

#12 If he is suing, discovery should be possible. May I assume that the relevant records have been sanitized in the meantime?

#16 I get a laugh at all the lamestream articles that state "Wray is a Republican."

Well, yeah. So is Paul Ryan. So is Adam Kinzinger.

Or so they themselves claim.
