The Justice Department announced federal charges against David DePape, 42, in the attack last Friday on Paul Pelosi, the 82-year-old husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), at the couple’s San Francisco home.
Kristinn Taylor reported on the announcement earlier.
DePape is being charged with assault on a family member of a U.S. official and one count of attempted kidnapping of a U.S. official, Nancy Pelosi, who was not home at the time.
In the charging documents, the Justice Department, via interviews with Paul Pelosi and DePape lay out the government’s version of events (TGPsummary):
The two men did not know each other. DePape broke into the house via a rear door using a hammer and went upstairs looking for Nancy Pelosi. He found Paul Pelosi in bed and told him he was looking for Nancy. Not finding her home he told Paul he would wait for her. He let Paul go to the bathroom where Paul made a 911 call, which apparently DePape overheard. The two went downstairs where Paul opened the door when police knocked. Paul was not attacked until police arrived when he was apparently beaten unconscious by DePape with a hammer while police confronted the men. DePape had a bag with zip ties, rope, tape, gloves, another hammer and a journal.
DePape said his plan was to hold Nancy Pelosi hostage to get her to tell the truth and let her go if she did tell the truth, but if she lied he would break her kneecaps.
“DEPAPE also later explained that by breaking Nancy’s kneecaps, she would then have to be wheeled into Congress, which would show other Members of Congress there were consequences to actions.” Both men were interviewed by law enforcement, with DePape reportedly speaking after being read his Miranda rights.

So the FBI swept in and took over the case and pushed the SFPD aside to file charges first. The filing supports the Democrat narrative that pecker puss was the intended victim. I haven’t see the feds act so fast since they snatched Kennedy’s body out of Dallas.
Broke into a back door with all the glass on the outside, hmm.

IOW, his entire estate.
BWAAHAHAHAHAAA!
Men in the bathrooms at the local San Francisco parks don't usually know each other, either...
I heard that Uncle Joe Biden was going to call Cornpop to “take care” of tighty whitey DePape. Uncle Joe called Cornpop from his swimming pool while he was shaving his legs, naked.
“this story just keeps on changing.”
Couple a days from now, the Pelosis will no longer be involved, and no law enforcement agency will discuss it ‘cause, ya know, “An ongoing investigation.”
AND WE’LL ALL JUST ACCEPT THAT...AND BLAME IT ON MAGA!
That scenario, minus the underwear and hammers, happened to me. I was able to call the police after I had calmed an intruder who had broken into my house. I convinced the man I was going to tell the police the 911 call was an error and as soon as I opened the door for the police I ran like the freaking wind.
The cover story sounds like someone is shuffling cards from a game of Clue, and the only one they have settled on is “with a hammer.”
How did they explain the window broken out from the inside?
A Grindr hookup gone bad?
Meanwhile, DePape as 1/6 cameraman is just a little too much.
Yet Paul Pelosi is on tape referring to him by name and calling him a friend.
They knew each other alright - in the Biblical sense.
i believe nothing..........
The Left is dangerous and wants us dead or locked away in camps.
I didn’t read this in the article, but I assume David’s attorney approved this version of events...right?
I’m betting that one of the things that will come out about all of this, while it may be somewhat inconsequential, is how much control the Dem’s have over the local government and the police department.
Nothing unbelievable about that, of course, but things will slowly leak out. And we’ll be given a look at just how much of a coverup all this is and will become. Absolutely NOTHING makes any sense. No way this guy randomly showed up and committed a home invasion or whatever they’re trying to call it.
Random home invasions, contrary to what some may think, are not that common. Usually there is a link, whether it be drugs, money, guns or something else that lures someone to invade a home. For example, the drug dealer isn’t going to tell the cops that committed the home invasion were there to steal his stash, but they will say they were a victim of a crime.
They finally got the story straight and look how nice and clean it is. Only thing missing was David wearing Maga hat.
Wouldn’t one Republican leaning cop be all we need to tell the truth? He could then transfer to Florida.
