  1. The only “misinformation” is what the dems and mainstream media is peddling to fit their agenda. Where was the outrage over the attacks on Rand Paul, Steve Scalice, Lee Zeldin and Justice Kavanaugh? Was Mega-MAGA behind all of those too? What a crock!

  2. The Immigrant problem they created showed up at their door step if that's not real poetic Justice i don't know what is LMAO.

  3. Disgusting is what Republicans do. It's a normal thing to them. Remember these people believed in Trump and that Hillary Clinton eats newborn babies.

  4. THE LESS INFORMATION SHE RELEASES THE MORE TRUMP STUPID SUPPORTERS CONSPIRACY THEORIES LEVELS GOES UP

  5. Dennis Hastert ain't got nothing on this current Speaker of the House…..sheesh

  6. What was the legal status of the attacker? Were Pelosi's house security cameras recording at the time or for monitoring only? Both Political parties shouldn't encourage any kind of violence against any branch of the government

  7. Such BS…NO ONE is encouraging this type of behavior but that left surely wants to milk it like they have done with January 6th 🙄

  8. He is Canadian from BC , he should be high on Sativa and swinging that hammer in Oakland building houses … like his work visa says…,👺☻

  9. No one cares about the criminals pelosi.

  10. So why aren't they releasing the police bodycam or security footage from the house?

  11. So this is what I’m confused about… the DA says they are limiting the amount of information and evidence they release before trial as to not let the alleged suspect be tried in the court of public opinion. Ok, I get that… but… what is more likely to cause people to make opinions: hearing that the suspect admitted to all allegations by someone else, or watching body cam footage and security camera footage showing EXACTLY what happened? At this point, we’re being asked to take the word of these people as fact which leads us to pre-judge the suspect based on a confession none of us get to see or hear. But somehow, hearing the actual 911 call, seeing the actual body cam/surveillance footage, those things are going to cause the case to be tried in the court of public opinion… that makes no sense!

    Secondly, you can’t complain about people spreading “misinformation” if we’re not being given the tools to see the actual information. You are giving us a story that leads to more questions than answers, and when we naturally try to fill in the blanks for ourselves to make it make sense, it’s labeled misinformation. Why don’t you show us the footage like every other case in America for transparency purposes and then people won’t have to come up with their own conclusions.

  12. She states that Authorities had warned everybody to be high alert, especially around election times.

    So, how come a drugged up Psycho can just roll up to the back door of the Speaker of the House's home and break in with absolute ease?

  13. Jokes about such attacks reveal how much Republicans are not in touch with real life values.

  14. Like Nancy said when the riots were going on. People are gonna do what they do 🤷🏽. Like Maxine Watters said get in there face. Like Schumer said you will pay the price.

  15. This assault is just another Uvalde. Thankfully without the dead bodies. The story changes hourly. Everyone is obviously lying or telling partial truths. Everything about this situation just reeks. What the democrats continue to fail to recognize is how crimes against the 'ELITES' are treated so differently than an assault on Joe average. It's laughable.

  16. Release the security footage

  17. You mean this footage that says it isn't staged crap I'm watching…

  18. Every threat should promptly be investigated and referred for prosecution, if appropriate. No matter which political party is involved…

  19. For sure the " attack" is another act of circus from the democratic party to try to gain sympathy and voters. Where is the video of the " attack"? That case looks more like a drug deal went wrong, or the male prostitute was unhappy with the payment.

  20. The media cover up isn't very good this time around

  21. just release the tape WITH the date and time verification to the public. This done all across this country every day by every police department. Florida School Shooting tape wee released to the public. What was a conspiracy and fear mongering was the Trump being a Russian Tool that was proven BS. But this media just ran with it. Wasted time,money ,and effort.

  22. The misinformation coming from the SF DA is ridiculous. It is very obvious that both the DA and the media have an interest in presenting Paul Pelosi in the best light possible, so they have invented the idea that he is an innocent victim. Had the police intervened, this would have been handled as a trespass or burglary arrest. Since Paul was seriously injured in the scuffle, they had to concoct the outrageous conspiracy theory that he was going to kidnap Nancy Pelosi. If DePape doesn't "commit suicide" before the trial, he will be bought off by Paul and the charges drastically reduced. The most important thing for the Pelosis is their political power, and the DA and the SF police are on board to safeguard that power. Needless to say, the media supports the Democrat agenda.

  23. Where is the camera footage? Or evidence..the story does not add up. DA is already compramised!!

  24. Fact: David and Paul are lovers. Fact: they’ve been seen together before. Fact: Paul said it was his friend that attacked him in the 911 call. Fact: they were in their underwear when the cops got there at 2:30 in the morning. Why is the media lying?

  25. Sir, a 82 yo grandfather was bashed in the head with a hammer. Donald Trump Jr.’s and Gov Youngkin’s reaction shows how low we have sunk.

  26. this D.A.’s misinformation is utter bunk, she’s seen the cops tapes, but still doesn’t know who opened the door. where’s Nina Jancowicz at ? she does songs & stuff

  27. 2 men & a hammer with 💩 on it ??? He was Paul's special friend … good try

  28. SHOW US THE HOME SECURITY AND BODY CAM FOOTAGE

  29. How long has Paul and David known each other?

  30. They are not giving a full explanation or any supporting video/audio. Can't complain when people come to their own conclusions. It is the burden of the state to prove guilt. You don't just take the cops word for it. That isn't how American law works.

  31. Republicans spread propaganda, hate, violence and fear…

    Republicans will destroy and divide America.

  32. Apparently if Nancy is out of town, you can be certain that Paul is getting hammered! 😂🤣🤣

  33. The disgraceful nature of some of the below comments are proof that your country – the once great US, is, and indeed has been, slowly dying for quite some time!

  34. This prosecutor should lose her job she should be voted out this prosecutor should never be a prosecutor this is the type of person that you don't need in San Francisco anymore these are the socialist fascist Marxist KKK members of the democratic party like this media woman here this black KKK member here that holds back valuable information. This is why you're going to lose in the voting this year and beyond we're going to eliminate the Democratic party once and for all and all you socialists are going to have to Andy up and quit and go find a new job working at Walmart as a greeter.

  35. There's more to this than meets the eye. Lights. Camera. Action.

  36. Above the Law / Under the Hammer

  37. Above the Law, Under the hammer.
