RICHMOND, Calif., — The crazed man who allegedly attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer was deeply involved in conspiracy theories like QAnon and had “fried his brain” with drugs, people who knew him told The Post.

“I think he was traumatized… It got worse and worse because he went down a rabbit hole and he was watching videos all the time,” Frank Ciccarelli, who employed DePape for six years at his landscaping business, told The Post.

“When I met him he was more of a liberal early on … but it became the whole thing, Hillary Clinton, Pizzagate, the election was stolen, QAnon. He didn’t believe everything, and I tried to talk to him rationally, but there was just a block there.”

Ciccarelli said DePape — who allegedly broke into the Speaker’s home and shouted “Where’s Nancy?” while confronting her husband — “had a deep antipathy toward liberals,” but noted that “he never mentioned Nancy Pelosi.”

The 76-year-old described how DePape had been sleeping rough when he first met him, but he’d helped him find a place and he had been living in the garage of a 90-year-old former photographer for the last two years.

The Deep State used the Soviet Era “Trust Operation” (Q) to fool conservatives and give themselves a straw man to make war on daily!

Headline should read:

“Mentally ill, drug-addicted illegal immigrants breaks into home, assaults Pelosi”

Newsome should have sent him back to Canada once he overstayed his visa, period. He was in country illegally.

Don’t these two far-left pixies have to provide proof of the BS they’re vomiting all over America? Somebody needs to sue their lyin’ asses. Friggin’ far left commies in the”media”. It makes me sick that America has fallen this far into the sewer. These are the same jackasses whining that their socialist/communist version of “democrazy” is under attack by Americans. Both are up to their eyeballs in BS.

What, did he think as a non-citizen his vote didn’t count? He was in California, so he probably voted.

There is evidence that he is also a really close personal pal of Trump

CA’s a sanctuary state; he had a free ticket there for life.

You’re exactly right. As far as I can see, Qnon is a product of the extreme far left “media’s” world. I have no clue what the hell Qnon is and none of my friends or relatives know what the hell Qnon is either. Sounds like just more lyin’ ass RAT electon campaign BS.

I don’t believe it either. One would think security footage of the break in would be all over the news by now.

So the government policy allowed this crime to occur and it could have been prevented.
