Nancy Pelosi's husband "violently assaulted" in their San Francisco home

Another clear case of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I'm surprised a tree didn't fall on him...

Should we set some odds on who the intruder is?

3:1 some kind of lover/affair gone awry

5:2 Paul himself. had too much to drink, couldn't find the light switch in the bathroom

10:1 Trumper

12:1 Leftist upset about insider trading

20:1 Random attack, perp just knew it was a wealthy house

50:1 Greg

Good point on the security.

How could someone access their house?

And if he was there to rob, or to do harm, why bring a hammer as your weapon.

Story stinks to high heaven

-160: junkie trying to score a fix

It was payback for the Rubio hit last week.

You think a junkie with a hammer can get past the security provided to the hundred millionaire, Speaker of the House, Pelosis?

Very clever and resourceful junkie

The perp couldn't get his wheel chair out the back door

SFPD should just release a mugshot of the perp. End all the speculation. Though remember when Paul was arrested for DUI earlier this year, it took over a week for the public to see his mugshot. Of course if Paul were in jail as a result of that DUI, he'd be safe right now.

P.S. Odds of this being violent Trumper are the same as Jussie's tale being true.

Sounds like the Oath keepers hired some Broken, Spiritless Homeless Guys to do their Dirty Work:

I'm going to need more information on this. This story reeks of BS.

An attacker broke into their home and beat him with a hammer. Yet he is expected to make a full recovery.........

If you get beat with a hammer, especially as an 82 year old, you do not make a full recovery. And random people don't break into homes and beat the residents senseless, even controversial public figures like the Pelosi's. There is a lot more to this story that is going to come out, or maybe not come out. But I guarantee this is not a straight forward as the stories are making it out to be.

This is a new low for Republicans. Beating up on old people who aren't even involved in the conflict.

It's like when Rush Limbaugh went after Chelsea Clinton when she was like 12 years old. Republicans don't respect the rules of engagement. To them, anyone is target, no matter how old or how young, if it helps advance their agenda. They have no morals.

Won't be long before the right wing media decides to depict the perp as a hero like Kyle Rittenhouse. He's just standing up for freedom!

SFPD update at 12:30 ET.

* Angry servant

* Sex-related

This is actually false. Their house in San Francisco is on an accessible street. I would post the address but you can find that yourself. Don't you remember when people sprayed graffiti on their garage door within the last two years? You can get a good look at the house on Google Maps and see that it is not nearly as secure as you might think it is. Similar to the SCOTUS houses that people protested in front of a couple months ago.

T'was OJ.

Not many people left who still use the word dastardly.

"What happened to Paul Pelosi was a dastardly act.", Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a statement.

It makes no sense at a time that the Republicans are about to boot the Dems out of control in congress that a deranged right winger broke into the Pelosi's home, which has lots of security and beat Paul with a hammer. I can't believe people didn't immediately stop when this story came out and say what is really going on here. This story makes zero sense from the standpoint of this being a political crime by a disgruntled citizen standpoint. If that were he case security would have caught the idiot in the same way the Kavanaugh assassin was caught.

I can think of a dozen scenarios, crime of passion, "business deal" gone awry, Jussie Smollet 2.0 to name a few, that are far more likely than this being a disgruntled right or left winger. The media's track record on reporting these types of incidents correctly is pretty bad so maybe we should take a little time to let the facts come out before jumping to conclusions on a story that seems pretty shaky to begin with.
