From 2017 to 2021, threats against members of Congress investigated by US Capitol Police increased by 144%, Axios reported. Many of the lawmakers on the receiving end of these threats are women and people of color.
Noticeably absent from that list are men without color.
Why is it that men without color don't receive threats?

Transparency in government is a racist dog whistle.

I’m curious about what Paul Pelosi knew about the Clintons…

I guess the punishment this guy receives will be a clear indicator of whether the gay tryst theories are true. This probably isn’t going to trial if they are.

That can probably be inferred earlier, from the charges. Will he get a trespass and breaking and entering charge and similar? Or just the assault etc.

The man alleged to have attacked Paul Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has been charged with assault and attempted kidnapping following last week’s break-in at the couple’s San Francisco home, the US attorney’s office announced on Monday.

I suggest he ask the guy from Waukesha to represent him.

But if they find him incompetent to stand trial then he just goes off to a hospital and it all goes away.

Politico decries https://www.politico.com/news/2022/10/31/conservatives-disinformation-paul-pelosi-assault-00064208 from the right:
Among those baseless claims: that a third person answered the door when police arrived at the Pelosi home, which San Francisco law enforcement has said is untrue; and that DePape was in his underwear when apprehended, a falsehood taken from a since-corrected local news report.

The cameras were on, but no one was watching.
Inside the command center for the U.S. Capitol Police, a handful of officers were going through their routines early Friday morning, cycling through live feeds from the department’s 1,800 cameras used to monitor the nearby Capitol complex as well as some points beyond, when an officer stopped. On a screen showing a darkened street nearly 3,000 miles away, police lights were flashing outside the home of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), officials say.
The officer in D.C. quickly pulled up additional camera angles from around Pelosi’s home and began to backtrack, watching recordings from the minutes before San Francisco police arrived. There, on camera, was a man with a hammer, breaking a glass panel and entering the speaker’s home, according to three people familiar with how Capitol Police learned of the break-in and who have been briefed on or viewed the video themselves.
The 911 call and the struggle inside the home that followed have led to charges of attempted homicide of the speaker’s husband, and attempted kidnapping of the speaker, who is second in line to the presidency. The incident has also put a spotlight on the immensity — and perhaps the impossibility — of law enforcement’s task to protect the 535 members of Congress at a time of unprecedented numbers of threats against them.
The Capitol Police first installed cameras around Pelosi’s home more than eight years ago; she has an around-the-clock security detail; and for many months after the attacks of Jan. 6, 2021, a San Francisco police cruiser sat outside her home day and night. But hours after Pelosi left San Francisco last week and returned to D.C., much of the security left with her, and officers in Washington stopped continuously monitoring video feeds outside her house. -

Don't know as I would call the guy in the mask a Ferrari...
I think they are referring to Nancy as the Ferrari.
And if so, then she’s the Mondial…
