If only Paul Pelosi had a weapon in the house.....

IDK, this doesn't add up. How does someone break into the Speaker's home? Would they not have some security measures? I know Obama's Chicago home had concrete barriers and a cop or two stationed out front at all times.

 

WashingtonCNN —
Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked with a hammer at the couple’s home in San Francisco by a male assailant early Friday morning, law enforcement sources tell CNN.

Pelosi, 82, was hospitalized but is expected to make a full recovery, the Democratic speaker’s office said in a statement.

The US Capitol Police released a statement saying that they are assisting the FBI and the San Francisco Police “with a joint investigation” into the break-in at the Pelosi residence in California.

The statement provides further information on how law enforcement responded, saying that special agents with the USCP’s California Field Office “quickly arrived on scene, while a team of investigators from the Department’s Threat Assessment Section was simultaneously dispatched from the East Coast to assist the FBI and the San Francisco Police with a joint investigation.”

Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Nancy Pelosi, said the assailant is in custody and a motive is being investigated. The speaker was in Washington at the time of the attack, a spokesperson said.

“The Speaker and her family are grateful to the first responders and medical professionals involved, and request privacy at this time,” Hammill said in his statement.

The assailant entered the Pelosi residence through the back of the house, according two sources familiar with the early details of the incident.

With Speaker Pelosi away, there would not have been a security detail at the residence, according to one source familiar with protocol.

There may be video that US Capitol Police and law enforcement can review as there are security cameras at the home, according to two law enforcement sources.

 

Why is the FBI involved? Is this not a local matter involving a private citizen?

 

Wonder if he was drunk

 

Nancy is probably paying him back for hauling that arm candy around up in Napa Valley awhile back. He will get back in line.

 

I've already seen an article claiming the intruder was looking for Nancy. There's a good chance it's all BS so they can claim it was a Trump supporting MAGA crazy Republican insurrectionist that did it.

 

Bottom line, don’t leave Nancy in charge of security.

 

Didn't January 6th prove that?

 

I'm sure the typical hypocrites had a gun in the house but he may have been too drunk to find it

 

Sounds like he was looking for Nancy and was surprised by Paul...

 

Dueling hammers….. and you lost?…. And the cops saw the perp take the hammer from pelosi then beat him with it…… something doesn’t sound right

 

Where was Juicy smollett at the time
Of the attack?

 

Well…. Cops have to stand around letting looters fire buildings and police stations. I don’t mind them standing around watching that dude w a hammer.

 

Randy Quaid….. one of a kind

 

Exactly I call BS, it was probably his gay lover in a fit of rage….you can’t believe anything they report in todays world.

 

I'm waiting for a reporter to ask how it was that the police happened to be making a "wellness check" at precisely the same time Paul "where's the alcohol" Pelosi was getting beaten. It was 3:00 AM. Timing is fishy. Nan will do anything to hold onto power. Having her husband beaten with a hammer is a small sacrifice.

 

Wonder if they already did the turn around bail for the guy or just gave him a ticket and sent him on his way

 

If you where married to her, you'd be gay too.
