Politico reports that Democrats are lashing out at the GOP after Paul Pelosi assault

As Twitchy has reported, Paul Pelosi, husband of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was assaulted in his San Francisco home by a man with a hammer. The details are pretty sketchy, including how the man managed to get past the security system, guards, and guard dogs. Both Joe Scarborough and Rob Reiner (and others, certainly) have traced the attack directly back to Donald Trump. Trump’s Big Lie about the 2020 election obviously drove this man to attempt to assassinate Nancy Pelosi, which the mob has been trying to do since January 6, 2021.

Politico reports that Democrats are lashing out at the GOP after the assault and wondering why Republicans haven’t done more to curb political violence among their followers.

Sarah Farris reports:

“A far right white nationalist tried to assassinate the Speaker of the House and almost killed her husband a year after violent insurrectionists tried to find her and kill her in the Capitol,” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said on Saturday morning. “And the Republican Party’s response is to either ignore it or belittle it.”

As police continue to investigate the attack, several of Pelosi’s fellow Democrats are pointing fingers at their opponents in Congress — accusing Republican leaders of largely sidestepping the issue of political violence and rising threats for years. Some also called out what they saw as a lackluster public response to the assault, including from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).

“Yesterday, a man sharing that member’s rhetoric tried to assassinate the Speaker and her spouse,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Saturday morning. Then, referring to McCarthy, she wrote: “What has @GOPLeader said? Nothing. This is who he is.”

According to Politico, Leader Kevin McCarthy reached out to the Speaker to check in on Paul and said he’s praying for a full recovery and is thankful they caught the assailant.” On Saturday, McCarthy expanded on that statement in an interview with Breitbart radio, condemning the violence and saying what happened to Paul Pelosi was “wrong.”

“I reached out to the Speaker. I called her, I know she was on a plane to California, but I was able to text with her to tell her about our prayers for Paul. Thankfully he’s gonna be OK,” McCarthy said.

But according to AOC, McCarthy’s said nothing. This is who he is.

We remember the Brett Kavanaugh story very well, because everyone on the Left said it was no big deal because the guy who’d flown cross country and gone to Kavanaugh’s neighborhood with a pistol and knife and burglary tools turned himself in without hurting anybody. NBD.
