    You stated that the news sources are "reputable" and said if I say their reporting is inconclusive, so must my posts be. When I asked what exactly you mean, you did not specify.

    I must have missed that, but saying that Forbes is a reputable source (among others via google) is ridicule?

    My point was, the info didn't come via Twitter or Facebook or whatever. The info came from a reputation news source.

    Minnesota GOP Rep. Tom Emmer, the chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, says ads tying Democratic candidates to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are "absolutely about the issues," and that "there should be no violence in our society."



    Money shot is at 5:15 wrt a recent twitter post



    The R base eats this **** up. Threatening violence against Nancy Pelosi is a political winner for them.

    Within 24 hours of the attack, the Rs have gone from thoughts and prayers to 2022 political talking points that gays are bad and our streets are filled with violence. The Rs have no shame. The Rs have no care about the facts.

    This is hilarious. Can you just imagine the **** the right would be saying if the same exact situation occurred, just swapping out Paul Pelosi for Elaine Chao or Lindsey Graham, I mean if he would come out of the closet and had a husband

    Yep and he is using a full auto weapon. The next thing you know he is going to want to make those legal to buy immediately ( Without a tax stamp, just being able to walk into the local sporting goods store and buy a brand new one, not one produced prior to May 1986)

    you have said this at least a dozen times, but where is your source for this claim? some random person on twitter?

    theres nothing supposed about it. thats what they said.

    yall keep saying this too - "he cant be a conservative b/c he is a hippie in berkeley!". as others keep pointing out, there are right wingers everywhere and i know more than one pot smoking hippie type who is a trumper. the idea that he couldnt possibly be a right winger b/c of where he lives is a really weak argument.

    is it though?

    DePape’s WordPress blog and Facebook page, both taken down since Friday, were filled with content popular on far-right media and propaganda outlets. One of the WordPress posts was an image attempting to connect various conspiracies about child sex trafficking, an obsession among QAnon adherents; the image shows the logo of furniture company Wayfair, which some Q believers think sells children on its site under the guise of expensive furniture. DePape also posted about Pizzagate, a conspiracy that imagines liberal politicians are trafficking children out of a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant.

    “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?” the post reads.

    Some posts use racial slurs, and others show a fixation with the idea that white men are persecuted in America. “Hate speech is ONLY allowed that targets WHITE or MEN,” reads one meme DePape posted. In another, he referred to “diversity” as a “dog whistle for the genocide of the white race.” He also posted content questioning the Holocaust. One WordPress post is titled “Hitlery did nothing wrong.”

    DePape’s daughter confirmed to the Los Angeles Times that the blog belonged to her father.


    daughter must be lying…or lemme guess, that’s not actually his daughter and she’s a plant because *insert rando on Twitter

    Just imagine if people protested outside of judges' homes - the Right would probably blame that on the judges being gay and wanting to have sexual encounters with the protestors.

    So let's recap this.
    • Homeless man not in just his underwear attacks Pelosi's husband.
    • The man posted online and in social media crazy beliefs in MAGA and QAnon lies and conspiracies
    • Reports are out that the man shouted "Where's Nancy?" and was looking for her.
    • Some people talk about how all of the crazy conspiracy theories and dishonest lies from the right wing foster an atmosphere were some believers of this dishonesty being pushed and publicized, might attack people.
    • Right wing defenders say they don't believe in conspiracy theories and that the guy couldn't be a right winger.
    • The Right Wing then begins to post a bunch of conspiracy theories, and incorrect and dishonest information to support them while still claiming it's unfair and inaccurate for the left to claim the right wing advocates misinformation and conspiracy theories.
    • The Right Wing's misinformation and conspiracy theories also happen to demean homosexuality and the Bay Area.
    • Police reports continue to come out discrediting much of the right wing propaganda about the incident, yet right wingers ignore the corrections and continue, all while acting like they are victims of vicious left wing attacks.

    Because deductive reasoning is harder than belief in conspiracy theories and they have to rile up their base with hatred and play the victim in every circumstance. Typical GQP playbook.

    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.

    family members must be part of the deep state Clinton cabal and he never actually sent them emails or texts

    The man who allegedly attackedHouse 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.

    Three of DePape’s relatives told CNN that DePape has been estranged from his family for years, and confirmed that the Facebook account – which was taken down by the social media company on Friday – belonged to him.

    I know, I know…since they spoke with CNN and not with PatriotBubba1776 on Twitter, what the relatives said is fake news pushed by the lamestream media and the Clinton cabal

    Is that the same daughter that said she got sexually abused by him and hasn't actually spoken to him in like 10 years?

    Edit: Yes, it is.

    "I haven't seen him since I was 13, back in 2014"
