Whatever your political affiliation, I hope you'll agree that an attack of an elected official's family is completely unacceptable.
Agree completely. I hope you said the same thing when they tried to assassinate Kavanaugh or when Maxine Waters called for violence against MAGA supporters. I am sure you did.

Does anyone know if this was politically motivated or just some whack job / thief.

Yes, I was equally horrified when Kavanaugh was targeted. I'm not sure what you're referring to with Maxine Waters, but if she called for violence, then she was wrong, too. I was also appalled when Steve Scalise was shot. And Gabby Giffords. And Ronald Reagan. And...and...and.

Depends. If it's a white guy, it's politically motivated. If it's a black guy or immigrant, it's a mental health issue.

Because she has a job in Washington DC, and she was expected at several events today.
Ok. So where exactly was she when this happened?

People cannot identify and control their anger.

The Texas parole board let a guy out of prison so he could attend the birth of his child in the Dallas Metro area. He killed his wife in the delivery room.
I may be missing your point, but all three of those cities/metros have Democrat leaders.

I heard the story on the radio.
Break in and hammer attack Pelosi's husband
sent to hospital but expected to recover.

Honestly ..First thought?

Hope he's O.K.

Then realized it's the Democratic Party.

Second thought. What stunt are they pulling now.


Dems will stop at nothing to maintain power.

Why are there no details or pics of the perp? I'm assuming if its already been hours then it's not a MAGA Trump supporter. Perhaps one of Pelosi's beloved illegal aliens?

Fox just reported that the intruder was going after Nancy, shouting "Where's Nancy, where's Nancy".
