Pence on attack against Pelosi’s husband: ‘This is an outrage’
The Hill ^ | 10/28/2022 | BRETT SAMUELS

Posted on 10/28/2022 2:04:31 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Friday condemned the attack on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) husband at the couple’s San Francisco home.

“This is an outrage and our hearts are with the entire Pelosi family. ⁦We pray Paul will make a full recovery,” Pence tweeted. “There can be no tolerance for violence against public officials or their families. This man should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Police said David Depape violently assaulted Paul Pelosi around 2:30 a.m. Friday. Authorities arrived at the home for a “priority well-being check” and found the two men tussling over a hammer. Depape then grabbed control of the hammer and used it to attack Pelosi.

Before the assault occurred, the man confronted Pelosi, 82, and shouted, “Where is Nancy? Where is Nancy?” according to a source briefing on the attack.

Do police usually check on someone in the middle of the night who didn’t answer his phone for a couple of hours?

Looks like to me it’s an October surprise ordered by someone like Soros in order to try and paint MAGA/GOP folks as murderers in order to try and rally the troops, sort to speak.

Gay men are known to be creatures of the night and not very discerning with whom they “party” with. It will be interesting to hear what the date, oops I mean perpetrator, has to say…If they let him

I think that crap about “where is Nancy” is BS to cover Paul’s indiscretion with a male ho.

Gee...cops don’t come to my house at 2:00 a.m. to just make sure I’m ok. They have time in SF, with all the other problems to do that? We’re supposed to believe this???

Paul Pelosi is known to drink to excess, but last night he really got hammered.

Hey Pence - What about violence against common citizens? Is that OK? Is it OK to toss citizens on subway tracks? Or 'play' the knock out game with everyday citizens ?

I guess he believes some of us animals are more equal than others.

Pence tweeted. “There can be no tolerance for violence against public officials or their families.
Hey Pence - What about violence against common citizens? Is that OK? Is it OK to toss citizens on subway tracks?

I was thinking the same thing. Crime is rampant, and it’s rampant in part because of the corruption of the judicial system by the politicians. No one gives a rat’s ass when members of the general public are victims of crime, but someone touches a member of the ruling class and all hell breaks loose.

Nah, it was Paul up to shenanigans that went sour because his monster of a wife was out of town.

You bet your sweet bippy that being that Paul was there, there were staff there then. This sounds like a soured bromance.

The DUI and crash. Now this.

Being of his age, sounds like mommy needs to come home and take care of poppa.

I don’t care that he is a man of faith. The guy is dog food. Proof that sometimes fellow Christians are your worst enemies.

Just what is a “priority wellness check”? My local cops haven’t done that where I live.

Anyone getting attacked in their own house is terrible.
I pray for his recovery.
But, I do have one question...
Was the attacker an illegal?
