A federal judge sentenced the man convicted of assaulting and attempting to kidnap Paul Pelosi, the husband of Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), to 30 years in prison on Friday, AP reports.Why it matters: David DePape's brutal attack on Paul Pelosi just before the 2022 midterm elections shook lawmakers from both parties and underscored the surging threats of violence they and other public officials face.
Paul Pelosi underwent surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands after the attack.

Two sets of rules.
No one else gets 30 years for this if the victim were a regular American.
Case wouldn’t even be filed in the district Pelosi lives in.

I worked as a criminal defense attorney in South Florida when Rush Limbaugh was charged for a drug crime.
If it was anybody else, a first-offense like that would have gotten a diversion program: couple of classes, a couple of fines and charges are dismissed.
They threw the book at him (or tried to).

Meanwhile thousands of criminals are roaming the streets in the same city of San Francisco, left unprosecuted

Meanwhile, other people convicted of minor crimes have received harsher punishments, and criminals of the same or worse offenses have received less
Good time to review the footage again…
• Paul Pelosi Pants down in his boxers
• Drink in his hand
• Paul is **** faced drunk
• Paul handed him the hammer?
• Paul answers door smiling- “hey 😃”
• If Paul Pelosi felt he was in danger, why didn’t he try to escape????
• Suspect has A weapon… Officer says drop the weapon— but officer doesn’t have his drawn?
• Paul Pelosi Snoring from being knocked out
• Where is the other officers footage? They always release all angles.
• A THIRD possible unknown person was speculated to be in the home.. Who opened the door?
—— Paul’s hands: One had the hammer, the other a drink.
—— DePape’s Hands: one had a hammer, the other behind Pelosi….

Want to hear something nuts?
June 2022: Nicholas Roske attempts to assassinate Kavanaugh
Four months later, a man attacks Nancy Pelosi’s husband
Pelosi’s attacker has already been tried, convicted, and sentenced to 30 years in prison
Meanwhile, Roske hasn’t even gone to trial
