Sen. Ted Cruz Grills the Filthy FBI and DOJ About January 6th

Top Filthy FBI official dodges when Cruz asks if agents participated in Jan. 6 riot
WTF? didn't see this coming. That is a lame excuse, and I have to say if this Epps person is not in trouble for this, well, yeah, he was a Fed like the crowd figured out. They're throwing the book at everyone else . This is nuts.

edit: looking further into it, this Epps guy would normally just seem to be one of the problem people there, so how has it come to pass that Cruz would suspect he was a Federal agent and the FBI official say "Sir, I cannot answer that question"


If there is no official operation, I'm wouldn't say anything other than what she answered. The way the one question is worded, you're answering as if you know what every agent of the FBI or associate is doing in their unofficial off time. No way I would put out a "no" under oath.

Actually I think it is possible she wasn't the right person for this questioning. Maybe she should have told Cruz his suggestion about this one guy was crazy, that she didn't do it in this one case was a huge mistake. Maybe. Or maybe she knows this guy is FBI. You know what, I really don't think so. Now look.

Homeless man mugs good Samaritan who gave him a coat on NYC sidewalk

Days ago, the same dirtbag assaulted a woman who tried to give him assistance.

Under the guidelines issued by the newly elected Soros funded Manhattan DA, all charges short of shooting someone, are automatically downgraded to a misdemeanor.

Empty bottles of premium brands of whiskey such as Pappy Van Winkle, Old Fitzgerald and Macallan are selling for hundreds of dollars on sites such as eBay, according to a report from the New York Times.

These bottles are being snatched up for as much as $380 by counterfeiters who fill the bottles with cheap booze and resell the bottles for “way over $2,000,” Hollywood writer and producer Adam Herz told Inside Edition in May.

“Part of the problem is the culture I see around bourbon, where it is about bragging rights and being able to Instagram a bottle you just bought,” Herz, an avid whiskey collector, told the New York Times. “Most people I see ending up with fakes are partly to blame themselves. Any good con man knows how to take advantage of someone’s greed.”

I think this is newsworthy. As of right now, the 32 team NFL has one black head coach. Approximately 75% of the players are black. Probably will increase to 2 or 3 once hires are made to fill vacancies. Brian Flores almost certainly gets hired by someone.
