I’m glad he will recover fully, but a hammer is a pretty heavy blunt instrument and when hit in the head with it, even a small blow will do serious damage. Was he taken into surgery with a broken skull, etc?

I’d like more details.


calm down. there's a press conference coming...obviously.

He’s undergoing brain surgery now, yes.

From what I've read, they were both holding onto the same hammer when the police arrived. The suspect got hold of the hammer after a struggle with Pelosi and then started assaulting him with it, but the police broke it up soon thereafter.

Take a breath. The initial report is police discovered Pelosi and the assailant struggling to gain control over the hammer. The suspect then took the hammer and began striking Pelosi just before being restrained and taken into custody. There were also reports of an attempt to subdue Pelosi by tying him up with rope until his wife returned home. The public may not ever learn all the details:

I read that Pelosi had the hammer, and this guy took it from him. Perhaps it was a small hammer that he was carrying at his age, though even these would be deadly. Or maybe the guy wielded it like a baseball bat.

The AP does not say that.

“Heavy” went through is social media and cited a laundry list of classic MAGA grievances, including “da Jews,” college education, “elites” “the ruling class,” and censorship of MAGA. An unverified reporter for “The Mission” say he appears to be” a “former Castro nudist”. Maybe take a beat before accepting what the Heavy says an unverified reporter for a two man publication handed out on street corners says “appears” to be true. I mean, after the Capital Shaman, anything is possible. But this needs a reliable source. Not to discount The Mission or anYthing.

If you are a Castro supporter, you are NOT Maga. LOL


Cringe...

“ A former Castro nudist” does not make that clear, especially to non SF living straight non-nudists. I’m happy you are tapped into that world.


It's called taking a pause, looking at context and not jumping to conclusions.

I know gotcha zingers feel nice, but they can also leave you looking silly as well.


NP: it’s not clear.


The original report is from a hyper local news source.

They are not talking about Fidel Castro.

A logical inference would be that the assailslsng had the hammer and used it to break the glass door in the rear of the property, if one really felt the need to speculate.

Who could have anticipated something like this? It’s not like the right wing has put a target on Pelosi’s back for decades? Oh, wait …

I'm just here to post that it's INCREDIBLY INTERESTING that the Fox News article does not allow comments. Doesn't Fox News always allow comments? Hm, I wonder why they chose to suppress their follower's comments on this particular piece of news??

The only issue of interest at this point is whether the US Attorney will overfile with federal charges based on the evidence available. The less publicity the better for now.

Nancy Pelosi has two dozen full time guards and state of the art home security.

The tapes will tell us what happened if this is ever prosecuted
