[Developing] Nancy Pelosi's husband violently beaten with hammer

He's a Republican that ran for election, won in the primary, and lost in the general. He's now the host of a conservative talk show - "The Jesse Kelly Show - Unfiltered and Unapologetic". Part of the MAGA wave that is now mainstream in the Republican party.

He's an example of how political maga is irredeemable.

 

why do you folks not post link to your source?

Police Chief William Scott said when officers arrived Paul Pelosi and the attacker were standing in the entryway to the home, each holding onto the hammer.

 

So... you're calling me a liar?

 

I would never. You are a registered Republican, anyone with access to Google can quickly confirm that. Just (jokingly) referring to other people's doubts.

But I think it's fair to say your son's views are more aligned with mine than yours are.

 

Imagine if they had spray painted the sidewalk in her neighborhood or forced her to leave a restaurant because they were chanting obscenities. THAT would be a story. Only the left would stoop so low though

 

Sorry Debs .

I blame all that champagne!

But I admit it's too soon. Let's let him recover first. And then let's find out why they were both in their underwear.

 

Let's see...

I am pro life with exceptions (e.g. a 10 year old who was raped by her father shouldn't be forced to carry a child)

I am a firm believer in the amendments to the Constitution although I think there are some reasonable gun laws that could be enacted.

I think everyone should be treated equally.

I think Trump is a horrible human being who has hurt this country more than any other person in my lifetime

I believe in states' rights.

I think too many Republicans have swallowed their own morality and beliefs to follow Trump and his ilk.

I believe the less government, the better.

I believe everyone and every entity should pay their fair share in taxes.

I don't agree with the college loan buyout.

I think any religious entity that shows a profit after business and charitable expenses should be taxed on that profit.

I believe the 2020 election was run fair and square with the usual minimal amount of voter fraud.

I think Rittenhouse is an idiot, but, he didn't break any federal or state laws.

I think Chauvin was guilty as hell.

I think the rednecks that caused the death of Arbery were guilty as hell.

So... what does that make me?

 

It was 2:30 in the morning. Pelosi is an 82 year old man asleep. Seems reasonable he might sleep in his boxers and an undershirt?

 

You are disturbing dude. I've honestly heard enough from you. I tried giving you a chance but enough is enough. Gonna put you on ignore with your middle school bully buddies.

 

A reasonable person I would buy drinks for anytime.

What about vax mandates and the Canadian truckers, and cancel culture from certain special interest groups on the left? Those were the videos of your son I watched where I was like...this guy nails it. But your posts seem to pin you on the opposite side of that argument (which is perfectly fine).

 

A pariah.

 

In the months before police accused him of attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Friday morning, David DePape had been drifting further into the world of far-right conspiracies, antisemitism and hate, according to a Times review of his online accounts.

In a personal blog that DePape maintained, posts include such topics as “Manipulation of History,” “Holohoax” and “It’s OK to be white.” He mentioned 4chan, a favorite message board of the far right. He posted videos about conspiracies involving COVID-19 vaccines and the war in Ukraine being a ploy for Jewish people to buy land.

DePape’s screeds included posts about QAnon, an unfounded theory that former President Trump is at war with a cabal of Satan-worshipping elites who run a child sex ring and control the world. In an Aug. 23 entry titled “Q,” DePape wrote: “Either Q is Trump himself or Q is the deepstate moles within Trumps inner circle.”

DePape’s daughter, Inti Gonzalez, told The Times that her father wrote the blog. She said that she and her mother were reeling from the news that DePape had been arrested in connection with the attack on Paul Pelosi.

“I’m a little shocked,” she said, “but not really that shocked, in all honesty.”

DePape followed a number of conservative creators online, including Tim Pool, Glenn Beck, DailyWire+ and the Epoch Times. He also followed an account on YouTube called Black Pilled and reposted several of its videos on his blog. “Blackpilling” is internet slang for coming to believe supposedly unacceptable facts about society, and the reposted videos include accusations such as the FBI covering up child rape.

Three of DePape’s relatives — including his father — declined to be interviewed for this article. They said they haven’t been in contact with DePape for years and that he’s not in contact with his family. DePape grew up in British Columbia and moved to California more than 20 years ago, one of them said.

DePape was mentioned in a 2013 San Francisco Chronicle article and was described as a “father figure” to Gypsy Taub, a nudist who lived in a three-bedroom Victorian apartment in Berkeley with her then-fiance and her three children. DePape, who was “a hemp jewelry maker,” was the best man in Taub’s wedding.

When DePape was sounding off about QAnon, he posted: “Remember when the UK arrested parents for trying to rescue their children from being gang banged at pedo rape parties and f— LET the pedo’s CONTINUE their kiddie rape orgies,” he continued.

Another post referenced “pizzagate,” a bogus conspiracy theory that posited that children were trapped in a sexual abuse ring in a Washington, D.C., pizzeria run by Hillary Clinton and a chief aide.

“Pizza gate is connected to Epstien hahahahha,” a post from Aug. 23 read. “My friends would be like pizza gate was debunked their is NO such thing as elite pedophile sex rings and I’m like HELLO Epstein what planet are you on?”

 

I have, for the most part, been sleeping in underwear and a t shirt most of my life.

I guess I need to dress better in case someone breaks into my home to assault me.

 

I'm observing; insinuating nothing.

you're inferring, and projecting.

 

In another, he called “equity” a leftist dog whistle “for the systematic oppression of white people” and “diversity” a “dog whistle for the genocide of the white race.” In others, he posted separate videos questioning the Holocaust and alleging Jewish bankers were responsible for Hitler’s rise to power.

DePape also ran a WordPress blog with the domain “godisloving.wordpress.com,” which included racial slurs and far-right conspiracy theories, according to news reports. A spokesperson for WordPress.com, which is owned by Automattic, confirmed that DePape’s blog was taken down Friday “for violating our Terms of Service.”

DePape also shared intimate emails and texts with family members, peppering them with xenophobic ideas and conspiracy theories. Even nonpolitical posts, such as one about a visit to a movie theater to watch “Black Adam,” were laden with conspiracy theories and ideas about racial tension.

“The critics are f— commie gate keepers,” reads a post written two days before the attack on Pelosi. In it, he writes he “enjoyed” the superhero movie. “Fantastic performance by Mr. ‘The Rock’ he carried the movie.”

But the writing quickly jumped to a conspiracy that the movie plot is not about the comic superhero Black Adam, but an effort to push hate against white people. “The real plot of the story was kill all white people,” DePape wrote. “Black adams [sic] was just a plot device for hollywood to push their white hate narrative.”

Days after Kanye West’s Twitter and Instagram accounts were locked due to antisemitic remarks, DePape created a subsection of his personal blog dedicated to posts about Jewish people. He attempted to debunk the Holocaust and repeated antisemitic sentiments in nearly 20 posts over a 10-day period.

He also posted personal conversations with his daughter. Their chats sometimes were about simple moments, including whistling back at birds, while others were darker, angry moments among DePape, Gonzalez and her mother.

Gonzalez said she was aware that her father posted some of their text conversations on the blog, but said she hadn’t paid very close attention to the rest of the content.

“I knew that he was posting things like that, but I didn’t know he posted all the stuff that I sent him,” she said. “But I don’t really care.”

She’d been in contact with her father, she said, but said her family did not want to discuss him at the moment.

DePape posted videos to Facebook by MyPillow Chief Executive Mike Lindell saying that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, according to reports.

He also linked to sites with claims about the deadliness of COVID-19 vaccines.

“The death rates being promoted are what ever ‘THEY’ want to be promoted as the death rate,” one post read.

DePape’s Facebook page appeared to no longer be accessible Friday. Facebook’s parent, Meta, didn’t immediately respond to a request for information.

 

hemp jewelry maker in Berkeley, father figure to a Gypsy nudist, does not scream "far right wing".

lunatic, yes, and there are many of them in Berkeley.

 

man, just stop…

everything he posts online screams right wing lunatic…gypsy nudist back in 2013, and then radicalized over the next 10 years into being yet another right wing crazy

 

Vax mandates? Leave it up to businesses and let the market decide.

Cancel culture? That is a non partisan issue. Just look at all the people offended by Disney. Mostly conservative.
If you don't like something, don't watch/ read it, but don't affect my ability to watch/read it.

 

We're lucky that this guy unsuccessfully (in certain ways) chose to attack a congresswoman. He could have been the latest to shoot up a school or grocery store just as easily.
