It didn’t take long for [democrats communists] to start using the attack against Paul Pelosi as a cudgel against the Republicans.
Now, Fox News host Tucker Carlson advises, they’re using it as a pretext to censor GOP “attacks” in the homestretch of the 2022 midterm race.
This from westernjournal.com.
The Friday hammer attack in the San Francisco home of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband, which occurred while the speaker was away, was allegedly the handiwork of 42-year-old David DePape.
According to the New York Post:
He’s since been charged with attempted murder and a slew of other offenses.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said that:
[i]t appears as though this was based on his statements and comments that were made in that house during his encounter with Mr. Pelosi that this was politically motivated.
However, DePape’s political views are anything but simple to describe in rational terms and are “so far out of the mainstream they can be more accurately categorized as the ramblings of a madman.”
Carlson said on his Monday show:
The people around David DePape believe that he was completely deranged.
Carlson continued:
The San Francisco Chronicle interviewed his ex-girlfriend, who reported that DePape is mentally ill and struggles with drugs.
For example, he once thought he was ‘Jesus for a year. He’s never been able to hold a job,’ said the former girlfriend.
‘He has been homeless. This person really does suffer from mental illness, and that is probably why he was there at 2 a.m.’
She described him as a ‘broken child in an adult body with serious mental problems.’ DePape’s neighbors, who would know, said more or less the same thing.
A neighbor said:
There’s something strange about the whole household. The entire household is very, very strange.
He is birds of a feather with — akin to them. So, they are just, you know, nudist drug abusers, and that’s who gravitates toward them.
“And remember, these are people in Berkeley who are saying this.”
Carlson added:
So, to restate, the perpetrator in this violent crime against Paul Pelosi is a mentally ill, drug addicted, illegal alien nudist who takes hallucinogens and lives in a hippie school bus in Berkeley with a BLM banner and a pride flag out front.
The real danger, Carlson cautioned:
[T]he midterm elections are next Tuesday, and [
democratscommunists] are in trouble, and they believe the attack on Paul Pelosi might help them.
Carlson said:
As Margaret Brennan explained over on CBS, because a mentally ill illegal alien attacked Nancy Pelosi’s husband, it is now immoral to criticize the leader of the [
democratscommunists] a week before an election.
He then played a clip in which Brennan suggested Republican attacks on Pelosi should now cease:
Republican candidates have spent more than $116 million on ads that mentioned Speaker Pelosi by name in this cycle. If this is about the issues, why shouldn’t it be made about the issues? We are eight days out. Don’t you think this needs to change? Why not pull some of these ads?
There’s a great irony to this, as Carlson noted:
Journalists like Brennan spent four years screaming about Donald Trump, the man.
Carlson added:
It’s hilarious and brazen and shameless—and the second the midterms are over, they’ll stop, but the point is, as always, all the journalists got the same memo, and they’re all running with the same memo, of course using exactly the same words.
If you criticize Nancy Pelosi, obviously you’re endangering her family. Of course, she does run the political party that’s facing re-election right now, that controls the United States Congress. She’s third in line for the presidency. But you can’t criticize her because if you do, you’re just like your acolyte … DePape.
So the Republican Party clearly needs to stop running advertisements that hurt [
democratscommunists] ahead of the midterms. Please.
Final thoughts: Republicans must not cease the good fight. When the tables were turned, the communists linked politics with direct attacks on their opponents. Communists are opportunists and this is on full display every opportunity they have. Dirty-politics is their politics.
