There’s plenty that doesn’t quite add up when it comes to the circumstances around Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband being attacked in their $6 million San Francisco home by a man wielding a hammer, but the one development that wasn’t quite expected is that the assailant, David DePape, is an illegal immigrant.
Then again, it makes more sense when considering that there is not another city in America more friendly to illegal immigrants than San Francisco.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson cited the reporting of network correspondent Bill Melugin to point out that DePape is Canadian and had long ago overstayed his visa.
“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 Berkley with a BLM banner and a Pride flag out front,” Carlson said, adding that if all of this adds up to “a textbook case of homegrown right-wing extremism, well then obviously you’ve been watching a lot of cable news today.”
Tucker just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to the fraudulent Paul Pelosi narrative and CRUSHED it in 47 seconds.

Carlson is referring to a feverish attempt by the liberal media already in full electioneering mode to spin the attack on Paul Pelosi to besmirch Republicans, with some outlets making the ridiculous claim that DePape had “MAGA beliefs” — they do this fully confident that the so-called fact-checkers, who share the same agenda, will give them a full pass.
As for the questions surrounding the assault, it begins with the 911 call Pelosi made from inside the home. Citing the 911 dispatcher, the Los Angeles Times reported that Pelosi said he “doesn’t know who the male is, but he advised that his name is David and then [said] he is a friend.” This was later construed as Pelosi “tricking” his attacker by using code. Politico cited San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott to report that “officers arrived at the house, knocked on the front door and were let inside by an unknown person,” and immediately encountered Pelosi and DePape struggling for a hammer.
“Meet the Press” anchor Chuck Todd spoke about there being “a hint of a third person in the house” on Sunday’s show, with NBC News correspondent Tom Winter also citing the police chief to confirm that assertion. Winter also reported that DePape was “in the Pelosi bedroom,” citing San Francisco District Attorney Brent Jenkins.
However, the reporting of a third person would soon be relegated to the waste bin, as the San Francisco Police Department would walk back that claim, saying there was no one else in the home other than Pelosi and DePape.
One thing is certain, Paul Pelosi is not the first American to be harmed by a foreign national in the country illegally and with anywhere from 10-20 million illegal immigrants in the U.S., conservatively speaking, he won’t be the last.
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
You mean the hippie nudist illegal alien isn’t a Trump supporter? Shocker

Although Tucker used the defence that he is not real news. He sure does do a damn good job reporting real news

Golly. If only we had an Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency in the Federal Government, whose job it is to enforce immigration policy and stuff.
But isn’t SFO a “sanctuary city” or something like that where they don’t recognize federal law and you can crap on the streets?
