What We're Learning About the Man Who
Attacked Paul Pelosi

Original Article

regret to inform the meme makers, the narrative builders, and all those involved in the herculean effort to make Paul Pelosi’s attack suspect into a stand-in for the right-wing boogeyman, the after-party has been canceled. The pathetic human known as David DePape was, until recently, a public backer of Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ causes. At least, that’s what we can surmise by surveying his “home” in Berkeley. DePape had a “Black Lives Matter” sign in the window and an LGBTQ rainbow flag, emblazoned with a marijuana symbol, hanging from a tree outside his house. Author Michael Schellenberger describes the scene outside DePape’s residence and took a dive into his social media

The newest spin on this morning's radio talk show is that the possibility of Paul and David being lovers has been totally debunked. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! When they come out hard with this kind of thing you know it is true!!!! Better test them both for Monkey Pox! I doubt they were wearing butt masks.

FTA: I am going to repeat this again because it continuously fails to get through on the left and the right: Mentally ill people do not have “political agendas.” They have “visions.” They have “delusions.” They see things. They hear things. There is no left. There is no right. There are only the voices in their heads, and to believe otherwise is to prove that you should join them in the asylum. These pathetic human beings can be dangerous, and most should not be left unsupervised. But the notion that they are warriors for Antifa, QAnon, or MAGA is bats**t crazy.

In 2008, a relatively unknown u.s. senator was campaigning for president. His name was Barack Obola. One day, as Barack was out on the street in Ohio, he intorduced himself to a man named Joe, who challenged Barack obn economic development issues. Joe was a plumber, who told Barack that such economic plans espoused by the Kenyn Klown would mess up his plans to start his own business. Thus was born Joe the Plunber! Reporters from eveywhere descended on Joe's town, and we soon, within 24 hours, we learned everything there was about Joe the Plumber, mostly presented in a negative light. Isn't it interesting that the reporting on Joe the Plumber was more important to the media than investigating and reporting on the man who might have killed Paul Pelosi?

Re: #3 - I believe Normal Americans recognized that the dirt and grime under Joe the Plumber's fingernails was more authentically American than Obama was or ever will be, so the media had to try to preserve the left's narrative and push for Obama's "historic" presidency. In the case of Pelosi's hammer friend, the media is doing their duty to their party by pushing the planned narrative, linking the hammer incident to Jan 6 in a last ditch effort to keep leftists in control of the legislature. Imagine the democrat media capers in store for 2024. FTA: "Wrapped up in their own obsession with Trump Republicans, most journalists have missed the real story. David DePape is not a microcosm of the political psychosis gripping America in general. Rather, he’s a microcosm of the drug-induced psychosis gripping the West Coast in particular." That appears to be the most plausible narrative and has an implied full stop such that the focus may return to stomping a mudhole in the democrats a week from now.

A rather transparent attempt to dismiss the developing story about DePape being a hired toy-boy for an off-the-rails Paul Pelosi.

Mentally ill homeless - one of the biggest reasons why I left the Bay Area. The homeless moved (or rather, WERE MOVED) into my neighborhood. Some were mentally ill. Some of the mentally ill were violent. I was tired of taking my chances with each encounter. I like the point of this article. Still would like to know how Depape got into Paul Pelosi’s house.

Got a gut feeling: There were two. She found out, and decided enough was enough, so she hired them. The hammer blow was supposed to just knock him into a coma, but killed him. News of his death will be delayed a week, to have it closer to the election day. Or could just be gas. (can never quite tell with those gut feelings...)

I'm still not convinced that 1) there was a "break in" or 2) that Pelosi was actually injured or 3) that this guy wasn't some sort of a playmate of Pelosi's. The story changes hourly, old "facts' are removed and "new facts" are toss against the wall to see if anyone will buy them. All lies.

I see this another way. This guy was paid plenty to act insane and the whole thing was planned. Then he will get pardoned and sane & rich forever. It may gain a few sympathy votes. Paul may or may not be injured. Hospitals & a Dr. here and there can use a little extra cash.

I have never considered that my patronage of a business, or the lack thereof, would make or break the enterprise. So, I find it amusing that D-list celebrities believe their threats to leave Twitter could make any difference when it comes to the company’s bottom line. This week, stars who haven’t been relevant in years, such as Toni Braxton and Sara Bareilles, announced that they would leave Twitter in the wake of its purchase by SpaceX founder Elon Musk. Braxton, who last had a Billboard 100 hit in the 1990s, said she was leaving because she saw “hate speech” on the platform since the acquisition late last week. Bareilles, who I

Next week, the Supreme Court will have a chance to save the free market economy from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Even as the court reins in the administrative state, the FTC is advancing new rules and novel theories that stretch the limits of its mandate. Under its progressive chair, Lina Khan, the FTC wants to cancel the gig economy, cripple the ad-supported internet, and address racial justice, rather than simply protect consumers. In Axon Enterprise v. FTC, the court could take a big step toward cabining the FTC within its statutory and constitutional authority. Axon itself involves a narrow procedural question of whether someone can raise certain constitutional challenges to

The U.S. Supreme Court on Nov. 1 blocked Congress from obtaining former President Donald Trump’s tax returns. Chief Justice John Roberts, a George W. Bush appointee, stayed an appeals court order that had ruled a congressional panel could gain access to the documents. Trump filed an emergency application on Monday to the Supreme Court, asking it to halt the order. Roberts’ stay is temporary, pending further developments in the case. Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means, has for years been trying to obtain Trump’s returns, asserting that they are necessary as the panel considers possibly updating how audits of presidents are done.

A dozen years ago, Democrats faced a dilemma. A long-term care entitlement known as the CLASS Act that they added to what became Obamacare faced serious solvency concerns. But after Scott Brown, R-Mass., won a shock Senate victory for Republicans in a January 2010 special election, ending Democrats’ filibuster-proof majority, Democrats didn’t have the votes to alter the CLASS Act or remove it from Obamacare. What did Democrats do? The Obama administration suppressed the internal documents showing that the CLASS Act wouldn’t work. (I and Republican staff colleagues later obtained these documents, compiling them into a report.) Democrats also convinced many in the disability industry to support Obamacare,

"I want to say a word about Speaker Pelosi.

His riffs on the campaign trail would be amusing if they weren’t so predictable and stale. Democrats are facing a big ole red wave next week and they are running scared. That includes the head of the party, Joe Biden, who is claiming that the midterm elections aren’t a referendum, they are a choice. Unfortunately for Biden, that’s not the truth. Midterm elections are always a referendum on the party in control and this one is no different.
