Why do you insist that Depape followed Pelosi into the bathroom, and what would this signify if he did? |
Why do you think he followed Pelosi into the bathroom? Who told you that? |
If you ask to take a bathroom break, you typically would close the door. And lock it in this case. I see nothing in the statement where DePape, Pelosi, or police state ‘leave the door open’. Why not close the door, call police, then tell them you have an intruder you don’t know and it’s an emergency? |
??? You okay? Therr is a recording of the 911 call. Part of thr transcript is in the article. Are you suggesting it isn’t real?? |
It’s real, but odd. |
Dude. What part of an intruder planning to break the kneecaps of the speaker of the house because he delusionally thinks the last election was stolen is NOT odd? |
| I think it was absolutely disgusting how right wing pundits tripped all over themselves peddling hateful fabrications about "Pelosi had a spat with his gay lover" and misrepresented and outright fabricated every single detail of the case. And worse yet, joked about it, like how hilarious that an elderly man ended up in the hospital for a week after getting his head smashed with a hammer. They literally got EVERYTHING about the case wrong. And now that details about the police report and transcript are coming out, they are outraged that it doesn'y line up with their own prior lies and fabrications and are calling "odd" or it a "cover up." Please just stop this shit already. The best way to avoid getting tripped up by your right wing web of lies is to not lie in the first place. And shame on all of them. |
| Thank you. It’s what I was too disgusted to say. |
+1. It’s disgusting beyond words. My parents are the same age and it is just an unthinkable scenario. |
TFG brought the Right to a point where just floating rumors, innuendo, or outright fabrications is acceptable--the truth is beside the point. The lies become the truth and by the time they are debunked, the people who believed them have moved on to other topics. There is no penalty for constantly lying. They have valorized lying in service of owning the libs. |
Were you not paying attention during the Clinton years? The rise of Limbaugh? This monetization of lies and scaremongering became an industry. Kari Lake was still alluding to Vince Foster’s suicide last week. It’s in their DNA. |
| Notice how the conversation came off the topic at hand - if Pelosi was in the bathroom alone, why leave the door open. He went for a bathroom break. I don’t believe anywhere in the transcript did it say that the perp would not let Pelosi shut the door, or that he tried. |
What is your point? |
