Armed with a hammer? Good thing it wasn't a gun.

Well honestly if you're determined to kill an 82 year old with a hammer, you could probably accomplish that without all that much more difficulty than with a gun... he's lucky to be alive either way.

Good job by Trump, the GOP and Fox to get all these nut jobs riled up and brainwashed enough to do something violent.

That's pretty much all you needed, it's like a product slogan at this point.

Hammer attack is basically a knife attack; a Crime of Passion.
Perp is definitely mad as hell to do something so intimate.

It actually possible that it's just a burglary... no motive has been released. Would be quite the coincidence though, I guess.

Why would the attacker yell out "Where is Nancy?" when he broke in then?

"Nancy" could mean anything though. Maybe it's slang for an 85" TV, or jewellery. Totally irrelevant.

It really is the ones you least suspect. Apparently he's also Canadian:
Quote:
The man who allegedly attacked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband early Friday posted memes and conspiracy theories on Facebook about Covid vaccines, the 2020 election and the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol, and an acquaintance told CNN that he seemed “out of touch with reality.”
David DePape, 42, was identified by police Friday as the suspect in the assault on Paul Pelosi at the speaker’s San Francisco home.
Two of DePape’s relatives told CNN that DePape is estranged from his family, and confirmed that the Facebook account – which was taken down by the social media company on Friday – belonged to him.
His stepfather, Gene DePape, said David DePape grew up in Powell River, British Columbia, and left Canada about 20 years ago to pursue a relationship that brought him to California.
“I really don’t know what to think,” the suspect’s uncle, Mark DePape, said of his nephew’s alleged attack on Pelosi. “Hopefully it’s a scam. I don’t want to hear something like that.”
Last year, David DePape posted links on his Facebook page to multiple videos produced by My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell falsely alleging that the 2020 election was stolen. Other posts included transphobic images and linked to websites claiming Covid vaccines were deadly. “The death rates being promoted are what ever ‘THEY’ want to be promoted as the death rate,” one post read.

And Rittenhouse. Sad part is they’d have a decent chance of being elected if they chose the right spot and could get the nomination.

There are a lot of Canadians that struggle a lot of our own collective identity a lazily conflate a lot of things that happen in American systems of governance with our systems. I'd argue that when you so easily confuse the US and Canada you've already taken a big step toward accepting a lot of other bull####.

Not sure why anyone is surprised - the GOP and their acolytes in the media have been fomenting this over decades.
absolutely sickening... This falls squarely on the GOP and their cowardly leaders and the media that echoes garbage for political gain
