When did Tupac become a judge?

I never heard Tucker state definitively that Epps was a government agent or informant. I heard him question why Epps wasn’t treated like others and speculate whether it was because he was a government agent.

Even the nuts on the J6 inquisition were defending Epps so you know he’s an insider working for the deep state.

Here's the problem, Epp sues, he will be deposed, and he will also have to produce all comms records before / during / after J6.

The only possible explanation is that Fox has already agreed to pay him off the way they paid off Dominion.

"Got bills and you need money fast? Call 1-800-SUE-FAUX" ... hell they could even have a "Sue Faux" actress pimping the call line.

I’d mentioned this before. The allegation that you are a federal agent is unlikely to be found to be defamatory.
That he incited some of the J6 action might be defamatory IF it were untrue.

It’s COINTELPRO 2.0, with white, conservative pro-life Christians the new Black Panthers, Weathermen and SDS. And new FBI with a strong desire to kill.

Yes, very interesting what the judge said in the case.

“....Here, plaintiff alleges that Shakur’s song “Against All Odds” falsely accuses him of “working as an undercover federal informant” and that, as a result of this accusation, he has suffered damage to his reputation and been placed in danger. (Compl.¶¶ 18-19) Even accepting that the statements at issue are false and caused plaintiff injury, however, plaintiff's claim must be rejected. In order to be libelous under New York law, a false statement must hold the plaintiff up to ridicule or scorn in the minds of “right-thinking persons”; those who would think ill of one who legitimately cooperates with law enforcement officials are not such persons.......”

May there be some right thinking people who remain on juries.

What, you may ask, is the connection between the profanity laced rap song from the 90s and Ray Epps’ legal intimidation tactics against Fox News, Tucker Carlson, and yours truly, Revolver News? All shall be revealed — but first, we ask the reader to indulge us in a little table-setting to provide appropriate context.
