What happened to Paul Pelosi was a dastardly act
For once I agree - violent home invasions ARE dastardly acts, and the perp ought to be prosecuted even when he victimizes someone I don't like.
But this sort of thing increasingly happens every day in Democrat's America, and Schumer has been silent. Just more confirmation of what most of us already knew - people of his ilk don't give a d@mn about the general public and are only concerned when one of their own is targeted.

This is nightmarish. I wish Paul Pelosi a full and rapid recovery. The far right has normalized the use of violence even against the families of public officials with whom somebody might disagree. This absolutely must stop.

The attacker should be rapidly executed, along with everyone else who commits a serious violent crime.
Violent crime should be met with absolute intolerance by society.... in the private capacity (armed self defense) and publically (judicial executions).

Can't do that! That would violate the anti-death-penalty beliefs of the left.
But.... wrap it in terms that makes it an ultra ultra ultra ultra late-term abortion, and they'd be fine with it.

Exactly. Just the way that they left only became worried about election integrity when it looked like the right was finally learning how to use the left's tricks against it. Then it became a HUGE issue and floods of crocodile tears.

They already did by insinuation by bringing up the "pro Trump riot."
Gee, a home invasion. Why didn't Mr. Pelosi fire his shotgun into the air?

Nude anti-war protestors
The 42-year-old Depape, of Berkeley, has previously made news for taking part in nude anti-war protests in the Castro neighborhood.
https://www.rawstory.com/david-depape-pelosi/
And according to the article
Depape expressed extremist right-wing views on social media, including conspiracy theories about Covid-19, a law enforcement official told the Wall Street Journal.
A CNN analysis of his Facebook page also found meme and conspiracy theories he posted about the 2020 election and Jan. 6 insurrection, and two of his relatives said Depape was estranged from his family.
Unless I see confirmation elsewhere I somewhat suspect the writer made up the right wing bit. You don't have to be extreme right to have questions about those subjects.
-
..extremist right-wing views on social media, including conspiracy theories about Covid-19...
I was confused, until I remembered that "extremist right-wing" only means "things the New York Times won't agree with."
-
Depape expressed extremist right-wing views on social media,
You've got to be kidding me. Somebody name me one "right wing" extremist in the history of of the MSM's "right wing extremism" pseudo-history, who lived in Berkeley and did nudist protests. That's the exact stuff "right wing extremists" make fun of. That's some major gaslighting right there.

Some interesting thoughts regarding security measures at the home of the Speaker of the House:

meh. Occom's Razor. The JV team was on security because the Speaker wasn't there, the Pelosi's are *expletive deleted*it to their staff so they probably have crap employee's on the JV team, and the principal's probably bypass security protocols on the regular because "important People" always feel like the annoying parts of physical security don't apply to them.
Add that up and crazy can walk in and find Paul, and get a couple swings in before anyone responds to the alarm.

And now some liberal congressional candidate in California is DEMANDING! ABSOLUTELY DEMANDING! that her opponent personally apologies to Paul and Nancy Pelosi.
I think I'd fire back only after she and every other liberal personally apologize to every American whose personal finances and safety are being crippled by liberal policies at the national, state, and local levels.

San Francisco
Middle of the night.
Police found both men in their underwear.
The photos of the broken glass in the door show a lot of glass outside the house, as if the window was broken from inside.
I read a report that Pelosi was holding the hammer when the cops arrived and his "friend" grabbed it and whacked him with it before the cops got control of him.

We will never and I mean never get the real story. I would bet even a FOIA request for the report would result in the report being redacted to the point of being useless.

I lived in SF for a long time, as soon as I saw what time it happened I knew what happened.
it was 02:25 or thereabouts, Paul and our nudist guy were having drinks at some local establishment, closing time is 02:00 so they start kicking people out at 0130 .
Paul invited them over, as things got rowdy Paul went to the bathroom to call 911
( indicating it was not a home invasion! )
from 0130 to 0300 all crime in SF is nearly absolutely really drunk people being really stupid and drunk at the same time .
We know Paul is a really stupid drunk, hopefully we will learn the really stupid details - I bet both nudist guy and Paul barely remember the evening

So in that Musk link there is this:

In every single case where I have personal knowledge of a situation that made it to the news, the news has gotten the story catastrophically wrong. I have no doubt they are doing so in this case as well. Whether their initial reporting was better or the corrections are more accurate I can't say.

I figure we will eventually know what happened. I figure people are desperately pushing to delay release of more information at least after election day. This is too interesting of a story for the media (the lower level guys at least) to ignore it forever.

This girl had severe personal problem and committed suicide in full view of a bunch of people by jumping off an upper level.
Does this article mention any of that? Nope. Instead they tried to drum up conditions at UPS as being the cause and accuses the company of both ignoring them and her. They even say her body wasn't found until later in the day after running from security while being escorted out. Basically saying security was like meh.
Pretty much every detail about her and her suicide is total BS in the article.

It would be fantastic to have Project Veritas get undercover video of Pelosi security guards admitting to what really happened. Paul Pelosi would be better, and he might even be dumb/drunk enough to pull that off.

Imagine being the responding officer and writing the report:
1. Arrive at scene of reported disturbance
2. Met at door by unknown person
3. DeHammer parially clothed males
4. Sort *expletive deleted*it out
5. Realize later that unknown door answerer in 1 (above) was homeowner and caller
So, a patrol officer with enough experience draw graveyard on Halloween weekend has to start his report:
"...met at the door by an unknown partially clothed male person who we later determined to be the homeowner and the husband of the most powerful woman in the nation, only after paramedics were able to remove the hammer..."
I'm giving the benefit of doubt by assuming the officer didn't have English Composition as a minor at San Jose State.
My funnybone gets tickled (pun intended) thinking about the conversation between Paul and the Dragon Lady after the press dispersed
"Goddammit Paul. Now of all times to cruise Castro. I know how much you love halloween, but with elections in 2 weeks... YOU KNOW BETTER. Why not call and have the Clintons just send someone over. Look at you now. You're getting too old for this *expletive deleted*it and I've got way too much to lose. Get your butt back to meetings." etc.

Yep. Nancy will be MUCH more upset that it’s national news that it was her husband engaging in homosexual adulterous behavior.
I bet they haven’t had sex in 20+ years (can’t really blame him no matter his other predilections if that’s true), and she has likely known of his preferences and doesn’t care, or didn’t until this happened.

Not just the media, the SFPD & nutcase himself are in on the coverup too (if you believe that kind of thing)
In a Mirandized and recorded interview of DEPAPE by San Francisco Police Department Officers, DEPAPE provided the following information:
DEPAPE stated that he was going to hold Nancy hostage and talk to her. If Nancy were to tell DEPAPE the “truth,” he would let her go, and if she “lied,” he was going to break “her kneecaps.” DEPAPE was certain that Nancy would not have told the “truth.” In the course of the interview, DEPAPE articulated he viewed Nancy as the “leader of the pack” of lies told by the Democratic Party. DEPAPE also later explained that by breaking Nancy’s kneecaps, she would then have to be wheeled into Congress, which would show other Members of Congress there were consequences to actions. DEPAPE also explained generally that he wanted to use Nancy to lure another individual to DEPAPE
He never said he was going to kill her. :police: Just talk, maybe break her kneecaps to make an example out of her and also lure in someone else.

I'm not sure if that means you're in the "He's a right wing extremist nutcase" camp. Because I'm seeing some pretty interesting video clips of interactions at AOC town halls. I don't think we can automatically assume that if either a D or R politician is attacked, that it's automatically an "extremist" from the other side. Each side has subset demographics that hate their political leadership.

I think he's crazy enough, either naturally or through extensive drug use or both, that he doesn't really inhabit the political spectrum as we know it in any coherent matter. He's a nutjob who seems eager to believe any conspiracy theory out there. At this moment in time, the more popular conspiracies tend to have a right wing tilt so that's why he appears to be motivated by some of the same things as the very far right fringe. When left wing conspiracies were more popular, he appeared more left wing. He just drifts along wherever the crazy brings him.

I heard speculation that Mr. Pelosi called this guy a "friend" when he called the police because he thought that guy was listening and didn't want to alarm him. I guess that is plausible. Still and odd situation.

Premium article, but below is the gist. It seems there are still widely conflicting stories from various "official" sources. It certainly seems, however, that there were no security people, the security system was off, and the security cameras were off. None of that helps quell the conflicting stories.
I don't know what standard protocols are for security for a Speaker of the House (or their residences, occupied or unoccupied). It sure seems like Paul Pelosi is something of an alcoholic though, so even with whatever protocols, a few drinks in he'd probably be shining them on without human security onsite to make sure all systems are on.
So far regarding the police entering, it has been, "A third person opened the door"; "One of the two men opened the door"; and, "The police broke through the door". If it was #2, then the story about the police walking in on the two men struggling over the hammer couldn't have occurred.
No security was present at the Pelosi residence when a man broke in on Oct. 28 and tried murdering Paul Pelosi, San Francisco’s top prosecutor said on Oct. 31.
“There was no security present,” interim San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins told reporters during a press conference as she announced a slew of felony charges, including attempted murder, against David DePape.
A spokesperson for U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) did not respond to requests for comment about the lack of security. Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Paul Pelosi, have a combined net worth of approximately $344 million.
DePape, 42, was able to break a window in a glass door at the rear of the Pelosi residence in San Francisco and forced his way inside, Jenkins said.
He then went upstairs into a bedroom, where Paul Pelosi, the husband of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), was sleeping, according to authorities.
Paul Pelosi was woken up; DePape asked where Nancy Pelosi was. When he was told she wasn’t there, he said he would wait for her. Paul Pelosi asked to use the bathroom, according to Jenkins, and while inside called 911.
Once DePape figured out the call had been made, he took Paul Pelosi downstairs.
Officers arrived within two minutes of the call, Jenkins said.
Officers knocked on the door and the door was opened. The person who opened the door remains unclear. An FBI affidavit said it was Pelosi but Jenkins said that authorities don’t know which of the men opened the door.

If there’s nobody else in the house I could see that. But presumably the spouse or other immediate family members of such a high profile person would be just as at risk and in need of protection as the main person. Otherwise they could be kidnapped, or harmed in order to damage the main person even if they can’t access that main person directly.

Just had an idea... After I win the Powerball tomorrow night, every night I'm going to hire a different SF nutjob to play a trombone outside the Pelosi house. A different one every night, since I'm sure there will be some arrests, but I could hire a different one every night. Talent for music, or any training at all, not necessary. Weekends I might also include a drummer. Hell, holidays, do a whole drum circle...
"Yeah, when you get out of jail for disturbing the peace, you'll have this waiting for you. Deal?"
-
Cow bells and tambourines, easy to make noise with, annoying as hell to most everyone when played poorly, or as a solo instrument.
-
Is it possible that the Speaker of the House only has Federal security at their residence when the Speaker is actually at the residence? So when the Speaker is in DC or out on official business, the residential security detail is pulled?
Correct. Nancy Pelosi's security detail travels with her.

06JAN is the new civil war, and Paul Pelosi is the new 9/11 is how I think it works at the moment.

Everything conservatives do is Jan 6. And Jan 6 was worse than 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and the Lincoln assassination combined.

Disconcerting not just because they did this with the Pelosi story, but apparently it's possible to go back into the Wayback Machine and change earlier versions of web pages? Or else the Wayback people did this? If true, it's disappointing, as I have always respected and appreciated the Internet Archive's efforts to preserve internet and media history, unedited.
The article goes on to note that the story has been corrected. This is true. Here's the story now.
Here's the correction: Note that the correction does not actually mention the word underwear. Even the Wayback links have the correction appended.

Reported on the not conservative Today Show, Pelosi opened the door for cops, then walked back to stand next to Depape. Also stated was that the hammer was in Pelosi's hand at that point and that Depape then took it from him and hit him.

I would have expected the suspect corroborating "the official story" to have slowed down the conspiracies, but it did not. I'm not sure how the conspiracy explains that, whether the theory is he was forced/coached or the SFPD & FBI straight up lied about his interview after being arrested. I'm not optimistic that video would do much at this point - people would complain it took too long, or didn't show everything, or was simply fake. Like most conspiracies, people believe it because they want to.
-

To be clear, exactly which official story are you saying he corroborated?
-
Anytime officials suppress evidence it usually invites more people (more than normal) to entertain conspiracies. They assume there is something they are hiding which is often true.
I wouldn't be surprised if their story is true, but if so, I can't explain why they wouldn't release the video. Makes me think something about the incident was embarrassing in some way and Mrs. Pelosi is up for election right now. We will see.

The short version is that a man broke into Nancy Pelosi's house to attack her and maybe hold her hostage. Instead he found her husband who managed to call 911. When police arrived the man realized the jig was up, got angry and bashed Mr. Pelosi in the head with the same hammer he used to break in. Police arrested the man and Mr. Pelosi was taken to the hospital.
I can't explain why they wouldn't release the video. Makes me think something about the incident was embarrassing in some way
I'm not sure the laws regarding such video, but I can say that if I were the victim of a crime like this in my own home I would not care to have that footage released. Victims deserve some measure of privacy when possible and there are plenty of issues with that stemming from police body cameras let alone home surveillance video. It would be worthwhile to use it as evidence in court, but I wouldn't release it just to appease people who will likely never be appeased anyway.

I already knew that almost no one remembers what "conspiracy" means. I still find it interesting that even being skeptical of the view of events conveyed by the media has routinely been referred to as "conspiracy theory," when it comes to this event.

The problem is that "conspiracy theory" when used to mean "baseless, speculative idea" would apply equally to a huge number of media reports and public statements by the President, other politicians, etc. When you call it a conspiracy theory you get to bake in doubting The Official Story, whatever that is at a given moment.
Once doubting The Official Story becomes a worthy of mockery, sophists to play Motte-and-bailey word games try to confuse doubting the obviously politically motivated, baseless, speculative ideas pushed by people whose politics they like with doubting facts.

ON REVISIONISM IN AUTHORITATIVE SOURCES
To be clear, exactly which official story are you saying he corroborated?
Tragically funny.
Not too long ago I posted something on "Unit 731," the Japanese medical experiment facility in China. Bearing in mind my own recollections of other Wiki articles having been "sanitized" I gave a link to the highly uncomplimentary article about this.
I recommended that my readers capture copies of that article on their own memory devices in case the Unit 731 article was ever massaged to soften it.
I dont know if it has actually been "polished;" I don't have time to check that, but my point here is that I was aware long ago of the possibility of revisionism in authoritative sources and recommended personal storage of important matters.

Body cam footage released
Why is Paul P grinning ear to ear?
Police bodycam footage of Paul Pelosi hammer attack is FINALLY released and shows intruder launch vicious assault at San Francisco home that left the 82-year-old with a fractured skull

Police body camera just released. Pelosi was in his underwear, opened the door, possibly smiling, holding a drink with ice in the glass. The ice is visible on the ground towards the end of the video. The police were calm and treating this like a minor issue until the attack starts.

Paul tried to get the dispatcher to understand the situation but the dispatcher was pretty derped out or thought it was a minor domestic thing. Yikes.

There's no doubt that Pelosi took a serious hit to the head and that the attacker needs to be punished. Bit that grin and the drink and stuff raises a lot of questions.

Think Paul hooked up with someone that night a bit crazier than usual

I finally listened to the 911 call. It does sort of sound like he is trying to call for help with the guy standing right next to him. Still an odd situation.

There was a thread on the the Pelosi's insider trading somewhere in here.

I was trying, poorly in hindsight, to imply the timing of this video release/embarrassment was purposefully done to distract from their most recent bit of 7 figure insider trading.

And an update
His lawyers on Thursday argued that DePape - who has struggled with drugs and posts crazed COVID conspiracy theories, anti-Semitic rants, racist slurs and unhinged screeds about religion online - did not try and stop Nancy Pelosi from doing her job.
Defense attorney Jodi Linker said she won't dispute that her client attacked Paul Pelosi, an encounter caught on police body camera video.
Instead, she will argue that he believed 'with every ounce of his being' that he was taking action to stop government corruption and the abuse of children by politicians and actors.
DePape posted rants on a blog and an online forum about aliens, communists, religious minorities, and global elites.
He questioned the results of the 2020 election and echoed the baseless, right-wing QAnon conspiracy theory that claims the U.S. government is run by a cabal of devil-worshipping pedophiles. The websites were taken down shortly after his arrest.
Enter the unicorns
San Francisco Police Acting Lt. O'Connor, who helped process the crime scene, testified she collected a sleeping bag and two backpacks from the Pelosis' patio that DePape allegedly brought with him.
Items in the backpacks included a sledgehammer, zip ties, gloves, duct tape, cash, a Canadian passport, a Canadian birth certificate, men's clothes, a video game console, and two inflatable, multicolor unicorn costumes.
:O
