The Spin

Democratic narrative

While Epps was a participant in the Jan. 6 attack, he went of his own volition, not as a liberal false flag agent. The conspiracy theories claiming that he was a federal agent sent to incite a riot and convince peaceful protestors to commit violence are unfounded and have been disproven. While this court case may show that Epps is guilty of participating in the events of Jan. 6, he's no more guilty than anyone else there that day.

The Seattle Times

Republican narrative

Regardless of whether the accusations against Epps hold water, this slap-on-the-wrist charge and likely plea deal raise questions. In the face of Proud Boys members — some of whom weren't even in Washington, DC, on Jan. 6 — serving decades-long prison sentences, Epps' misdemeanor charge is, at best, offensive and, at worst, suspect. Either way, there must be more transparency.
