Ray Epps, a man some suspect was a federal informant goading the crowd ahead of the Capitol riot despite his denials, reportedly called the FBI tip line two days after the violence upon seeing himself on a list of Jan. 6 suspects.
Investigators were told by Epps that an exchange captured on video showing him whispering into the ear of another man, identified as Ryan Samsel, was Epps attempting to calm Samsel, telling him police outside the Capitol were just doing their jobs before Samsel charged the barricades, people familiar with the call told the New York Times.

“How about the one guy — ‘Go in, go in. Get in there, everybody.’ Epps. ‘Get in there. Go, go.’ Nothing happens to him. What happened with him? Nothing happened,” Trump said at an Arizona rally in January.
