Carlson cited a “cryptic” statement on Twitter from Jan. 6 congressional committee about interviewing a suspected undercover government actor related to last January's rally-turned-riot.
The attorney for Capitol Hill protest participant Ray Epps, former FBI agent John Blischak, told The Epoch Times on Jan. 12 that his client has been interviewed by federal law enforcers and “unequivocally he is not an FBI informant.”
When U.S. Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd went on “NBC Nightly News” to tell his side of shooting and killing unarmed Jan. 6 rioter Ashli Babbitt, he made a point to note he’d been investigated by several agencies and exonerated for his actions that day.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) appeared to suggest on Sunday that he will not voluntarily cooperate with the Jan. 6 select committee investigating the U.S. Capitol breach, calling the request “unprecedented and inappropriate.”
Fox News host Tucker Carlson strongly criticized Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas Thursday night for using the word “terrorist” to describe protesters participating in the Capitol incursion.
