Raskin acts like he doesn't know who Ray Epps is. They want you to forget about Epps and the Pipe Bomber

Here is the Government House page on Jamie Raskin.  The fact that he pretends not to know who Ray Epps or what his role was in January is all you need to know.  Raskin is on the January 6 Committee.   

Wow.  Did he just finish an evening class on modern fiction?  

These are the facts.  [He's lying already.  Lie #1.]  On January 6, at the direction of Donald Trump [Lie #2], a violent mob [Lie #3] stormed [Lie #4] the Capitol in an attempt to change the results [Lie #5: protestors wanted to hold their gov't accountable] of a free and fair [Lie # 6: have you seen 2000 Mules?] presidential election.  In the process, 138 capitol and DC officers were injured. [I have no data on the number or severity of their injuries]. A Capitol police officer was bludgeoned to death. [Lie #7]  And two more Capitol police officers died by suicide in the days that followed [Irrelevant unless he's saying that the protestors caused their suicide]. Many of us in this room, . . . 

The absence of shame is astounding.  

Good comment here from Charles Williams. 

Common NYT tactic. An incendiary lie is inculcated, (insurrectionists bludgeon Capitol officer Sicknick with a fire extinguisher, sources are anonymous). The quiet retraction makes little impact. The intent is to vilify & dehumanize. The lie was reinforced in the show trial.
