Paul Pelosi Attacked! The Right's Relentless Noise At Nancy Pelosi Is The Cause Of This!

It has gotten worse. The noise now puts House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's life in danger once again. 

Vote.

Ignore the noise.

Vote to save democracy.

Social media is a nightmare and tool for recruiting extremists. 

All the noise and it led to a white extremist to break into the home of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). He ends up attacking the lawmaker's husband in an early morning assualt.

As expected, Pelosi, President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), QAnon Leader Karen McCarthy (R-CA), Obstructionist Leader Karen McConnell (R-KY) and members who actually have common sense offered support and condemnation.

Of course, McCarthy and McConnell are phony as fuck. They are contributing factors.

The noise created by Republicans and Washed Up 45 led to this, no doubt about it.

On top of that, it appears they are doubling down on the noise by pivoting and tossing around conspiracy theories to why a random stranger would attack the spouse of the 2nd in line of presidential succession.

It's business as usual in the scapegoating department at the Republican National Committee.

It's chairwoman, Idiot Romney McDaniel said "it's time to fire Nancy Pelosi."

The terrorist hit Paul Pelosi over the head with a hammer. He has gotten serious blows to the head, right side of his arm. The Speaker's office has said that he will survive the injuries.

San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said officers arrived at Pelosi’s house for a “well-being check” at around 2:27 a.m., where they saw Paul Pelosi and an adult male both holding a hammer.

Extremist caught. Now comes the far right trying to debunk his motives 

“The suspect pulled the hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it,” Scott said. “Our officers immediately tackled the suspect, disarmed him, took him into custody, requested emergency backup, and rendered medical aid.”

Scott identified a 42-year old white extremist. The man will be charged with attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse and burglary.

Both Pelosi and the terrorist were taken to a hospital, Scott said.

“Mr. Pelosi was admitted to Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital where he underwent successful surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands,” Pelosi’s office said later on Friday. “His doctors expect a full recovery.”

The terrorist entered the home looking for the speaker, a source briefed on the assault told HuffPost, but she wasn’t there. Before the attack, the intruder confronted Paul Pelosi, saying, “Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?”

The terrorist's internet presence suggests an obsession with far-right conspiracy theories, and some Democrats quickly condemned Republicans for the attack.

“Now is not a moment for timidity. Let’s be direct. Today’s violence seems to be the direct product of Big Lies from many Republicans and Republican propaganda organs about Democrats and American democracy,” Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) said in a release.

“Turn on rightwing media on any given day or night. You will see frothing hosts shrieking unspeakable lies and unfounded conspiracy theories about women, religious and ethnic minorities, city residents, young people, and scores of others Americans,” Pascrell said.

The U.S. Capitol Police announced that they and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are helping San Francisco police investigate the attack.

Schumer called the attack “a dastardly act.” The White House said President Joe Biden called Nancy Pelosi to express support. 

The attack comes amid heightened concerns over both crime and political violence. Within minutes of Pelosi’s statement, a Fox host described the attack as an example of how “crime hits everybody.”

Outgoing lawmaker Rep. Jackie Speier (D-CA), whose district includes part of San Francisco, suggested early on Friday that the attack could be political.

“While the motive is still unknown we know where this kind of violence is sanctioned and modeled,” Speier wrote on Twitter.

Nancy Pelosi is one of the best-known politicians in the country. She is also one of the most vilified Democrats in Republican campaigns, which invoke her name as a symbol of Beltway liberalism.

In August, Paul Pelosi pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence. He also has faced scrutiny for his stock trades, and some lawmakers have pushed for a ban on members’ spouses trading stocks.

Years-old blogs that appear to belong to the white extremist show posts about LSD, Burning Man and quartz crystals. But more recent posts show disturbing signs of right-wing radicalization. Two posts from Aug. 26 of this year read “Pedophile normalization” and “black pilled,” the latter being internet slang for becoming hopelessly nihilistic regarding the government, society or one’s own life. Another post, from Aug. 26, reads, “Hitlery did nothing wrong.”

Others complain about “communist propaganda.” One post, simply labeled “Q” ― an apparent reference to the QAnon conspiracy theory universe ― references a meme about the conspiracy theory involving wealthy pedophiles trafficking children through the furniture website Wayfair.

Another website with posts authored by this white terrorist shows him closely following various right-wing political obsessions, like false claims of widespread voter fraud, Justice Department special counsel John Durham’s investigation. Many others show his obsession with “the Jew media,” including a recent post about the war in Ukraine: “The more Ukrainians die NEEDLESSLY the cheaper the land will be for Jews to buy up.”

“This morning’s terrifying attack on Paul Pelosi by a man obsessed with election conspiracies is a dangerous reality encouraged by some members of my own party,” Rep. Karen Kinzinger (R-IL) wrote Friday.

Fox which often targets Pelosi has claimed that the terrorist was a victim of the city's so-called "defund the police" strategy. Of course, it's not true. Fox often scapegoats her through most of its propaganda.

Fox claims, "Media Using Attack On Paul Pelosi Against Conservatives."

The Daily Mail, Breitbart, One America's Voice, Newsmax, OANN, The Young Turks and Newsweek have attacked Pelosi frequently and unapologetically. 

McCarthy before his phony statement said it best about Pelosi.

"I'll make this one promise here: when we win the majority, which I know we're going to, you're all invited. I want you to watch Nancy Pelosi hand me that gavel. It'll be hard not to hit her with it, but I will bang it down."

I was going to address the noise often threatening lawmakers like Pelosi. I guess it will come sooner than I thought. Other lawmakers who are attacked by the noise include: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA). I also said the noise has attacked Rep. Shontel Brown (D-OH), Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep. Karen Cheney (R-WY) and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD). 

Political figures and entertainers attacked by the noise include: former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Hunter Biden, former president Barack Obama, former first lady Michelle Obama, Whoopi Goldberg, Anderson Cooper, former president Jimmy Carter, former president Bill Clinton, Joy Reid, Don Lemon and Joy Behar.

These individuals seem to be often triggering the far-right. The far-right has often used them in their scare tactics to win white voters.

On Jan. 6, the mob inspired by Washed Up 45 called for Pelosi wanting to "kill" her for standing in the former president's way.

The suspect is facing a state lunch. The feds are looking into the matter and may consider bring a federal sandwich.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in in a court of law.
