An Arizona man at the center of a right-wing conspiracy theory about the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack on Thursday called on Fox News host Tucker Carlson to publicly retract his “false and defamatory statements” alleging that he was secretly working with the federal government during the attack.
Ray Epps became a target of far-right allegations that claimed he was working with the federal government and sought to provoke violence during the Capitol attack.
In a letter to Carlson and Fox News general counsel Bernard Gugar, Michael Teter, a lawyer for Epps, said the Fox News host “persists with his assault on the truth” by pushing “fanciful notions” regarding Epps’ involvement in the Capitol attack that have “demonstrably (and already proven to be) false.”

Epps was urging people to go on inside the Capital building the EVENING of Jan 5th. On Jan 6 he was again urging protesters to attack the Capital. Late on the evening of the 6th Epps texted to his nephew “ I orchestrated that!”. Protesters on the evening of the 5th called Epps a fed. This is basically BS. https://www.dailywire.com/news/ray-epps-told-nephew-he-orchestrated-january-6
