Somebody left Speaker Nancy Pelosi a very disturbing message to kick off the new year ... and it seems to be related to the ongoing financial struggles of millions of Americans.
Pelosi's San Francisco home was vandalized overnight ... most of the damage was done to her garage door and driveway. The perp or perps spray-painted "Cancel Rent!" and "We Want Everything" in big black letters on her door ... and there's also a nod to the failed $2,000 government stimulus checks.
Even more unnerving, what looks like a pig's head and fake blood were also staged in front of her garage.
Law enforcement sources tell us ... San Fran cops responded to a vandalism call at Pelosi's home around 3 AM. We're told a police report was taken, but it's unclear if they have any suspects

(7,637 posts)Her house should be under security monitoring 24/7 . I am dumbfounded it is not the case especially since she has been a lightning rod for the right wingers for years.

(17,608 posts)I live in a modest middle-class neighborhood and more and more of my neighbors have cameras and security systems.
Kind of boggles my mind that no one has tended to this for her.

(65,212 posts)Very unflattering, washed out photo first, and her tearing up the speech at SOTU.
Those are the pictures they used in a story about vandalism.
Seems inflammatory clickbait.

(12,681 posts)There's a venn diagram between radical activists, anarchists and smarmy nihilists that contains many of the indicators in this vandalism.
And when I say radical activists, doesn't matter if they claim to be right or left - radical activists believe their way is the only way.
Personally, I think this vandalism is closer to a false flag or "initiation" action in one of the aforementioned groups. I'd be curious about what the FBI has found over social media concerning this.

(18,486 posts)the home of the Speaker of the House and vandalize it in the dark of night. Her security is pretty tight and, even when she's not in residence, I think her house would still be carefully guarded.
I could turn out to be wrong about this, but right now, I'm with you. It doesn't pass the smell test.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) The San Francisco home of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was the reported target of a vandalism attack overnight on New Years Eve that included graffiti and what appeared to be a pigs head, according to social media posts and TMZ.
The story on the TMZ website included a Twitter post by user Sam Houston that featured a photo of a graffitied garage door that was spray painted with messages as well as what appeared to be a pigs head and red paint on the homes driveway.
Spray painted in black on the white garage door were the messages $2K an apparent reference to the $2,000 COVID stimulus checks that have been held up in the U.S. Senate CANCEL RENT! and WE WANT EVERYTHING!
The graffiti also included what appeared to be the common symbol for anarchy, an A with a circle around it.

(5,125 posts)I know I get up in the middle of the night and check on things if I hear weird noises. I live in Minneapolis and there have been break ins and shootings even after the main looting spree died down.
A while back some creeps did a drive by and shot into the window of my neighbor who is on the corner of the block. Lucky she is short. The BB's went above her head but that is still scary stuff.
I used to live in Cali and the gangs would do that crap to each other and the rest of us were just collateral damage if we got in the way. We didn't have cell phones to send anonymous tips in either.
Funny the reason I thought it was fake at first is that recently they were re-posting the fake about the Lincoln Memorial being busted up and having graffiti somewhat similar to this on it. The put it out in June or July and again in November or December. My son goes to these ALT sites and he was CERTAIN it's true. The Reich is going to extremes to paint the Left as all being crazy Antifa vigilantes.
My guess is that this is just a Reich Wing publicity stunt to paint the left as being upset with Nancy for not doing enough for the people. When anyone actually in the Left knows that is ridiculous. We KNOW who is holding up our country and shaking US down and it isn't the DEMs in leadership.
It isn't even ALL the Republicans ALL the time. They DO cave in a lot to the tOddler in chief, but it seems like there are times they hit a line that they really don't want to cross. So they surprise US and sometimes themselves by doing the sane and rational thing instead of following tRump like a bunch of lemmings off a cliff. Even if it's simply political self preservation or the last shred of integrity inside them that creates an aversion to becoming a tool for what they must suspect is a sick and demented plot against Democracy, the last flicker of conscience. It happens here and there.
The group on the far right is the reThug arm of the party and is running a very KKK agenda and trying to muddy the waters to make it unclear WHO is the aggressor in all of this. Back in the 50's and 60's they had stuff locked down with "the old boy's club" way of doing things that meant they could keep people out of places of power and bypass Democracy that way.
My son is CONVINCED that tRump isn't a "racist" because his black friend, Herschel Walker, says tRump has treated him well. But my son doesn't get it. There were slave owners that had overseers and slaves they "treated well" and used even so. Sports is where the Reich wing thinks blacks belong. And if they prove themselves and get rich then they get into the "club" that way.
It seems the "new agenda" of the KKK or Reich Wing or Top 1% is really about POWER now and anyone who will stand up and speak truth to that power is the enemy. With tRump as POTUS it makes any honest person an enemy of the state. So they don't want to lose that position. But the propaganda and manipulation it takes to make this seem even remotely legit is HUGE.
