the left wouldn't have tried to make political hay out of it. Would have been Paul Pelosi got attacked and everyone
would have said "that's a terrible thing". But no, the left has to make political points and start blaming the right.
So yes, the fun began saying how the events just don't add up to what you're pushing. And by the way, there's
a whole lot of fishy here. But the left just keeps digging their hole deeper. At some point don't you just
think they'd put down the shovel? It's like being around stupid little kids. They break something and think if they
lie about it they won't get in trouble. And then you later laugh about it because of their stupid story. It's not
like you're happy something broke, but it's funny how stupid of a story they think you'll believe. So one time, it's
funny and you let it go. But when it happens over and over, then you just have to start calling out the BS.
If you don't get that, then you should be sorry, for yourself.

Or whoever is pulling their strings.
Here's an example. Vital MX launched on July 10th, 2006. The site was scraped several times before it officially launched because the IP address was active.
http://web.archive.org/web/20060101000000*/www.vitalmx.com
The Wayback Machine Archive is much more efficient now than it was in 2006. If those sites had existed before last Friday, they would have been captured at least a few times.
Would it be less of a thing if he was a different age?
I heard it explained, but couldn't articulate it as convincingly.
*not a personal attack, but a line from “Animal House” that seemed fitting.
The disclaimer on the Wayback Machine is pretty telling as well.
Pit Row
Paul Pelosi, the husband of US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked by a hammer-wielding intruder at the couple's San Francisco home in the early hours of Friday.
Within hours of the attack, a series of unsubstantiated claims began circulating in fringe far-right circles that contradicted the official police account of how the attack unfolded.
Those misleading claims have since gone viral after being amplified by new Twitter chief Elon Musk and a number of conservative influencers.
BBC News examines some of the claims about the attack.
False same-sex affair claims
One of the most viral false claims about the attack suggests that Mr Pelosi, 82, and his attacker David DePape, 42, were in a same-sex relationship and had a drunken quarrel.
A series of baseless assumptions that do not match official accounts of the incident have been used to support the narrative.
These claims started to trend in the US after Elon Musk tweeted an article from a website featuring similar claims to his 112 million followers on Sunday, before deleting his tweet without any explanation hours later.
"There is a tiny possibility there might be more to this story than meets the eye," Mr Musk had said in response to a tweet by former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

The website Mr Musk linked to has a history of publishing inaccurate stories, including an article from 2016 that claimed Hillary Clinton was dead.
One of the claims made online is that both Mr DePape and Mr Pelosi were in just their underwear as police arrived at the scene.
But the FBI complaint against Mr DePape quotes a witness as saying he was dressed "in all black" carrying a large black bag on his back.
Another claim seized on to support this narrative is that the two men knew each other before the attack and were friends.
Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene repeated the claim in a tweet yesterday.

According to the FBI complaint, Paul Pelosi did not know Mr DePape. Mr Pelosi used coded language as he made a 911 call from the bathroom, and an experienced operator worked out what was happening in his house.
Another rumour supporting the idea that the two men knew each other claimed that the shattered glass door of the house was broken from the inside, suggesting Mr Pelosi or a third person had let Mr DePape in.
The FBI complaint quotes Mr DePape as saying that he "broke into the house through a glass door, which was a difficult task that required the use of a hammer".

False claims suggested the glass door of the house was broken from the inside
There is no evidence in any of the police accounts that a third person was either in the house or involved in the attack.
Claims DePape's blogs were faked
Two personal blogs and a Facebook account in the suspect's name were found on the internet after police revealed his name following the attack, all of which were subsequently taken down.
His writings, viewed by the BBC, suggest he was a man radicalised by far-right conspiracy theories.
His posts cover a range of subjects, including unsubstantiated theories that the 2020 election was stolen, the 6 January Capitol riot, claims that Covid vaccines were harmful, support for the QAnon conspiracy theory, as well as racist and anti-Semitic posts.
Some online posts suggested the blogs were fake and only created on the day of the attack to support the narrative that he believed in far-right conspiracy theories.

But the BBC has screenshots of the blogs which show he had made posts as early as August, weeks before the attack.
Some have also claimed the attack was not motivated by politics or Mr DePape's beliefs.
Conservative commentator Matt Walsh said it was "absurd" to portray the attacker as "a militant right winger".
Texas Senator Ted Cruz echoed Mr Walsh's words, simply tweeting "truth".
However, the police complaint clarifies the attack was not a random act. According to San Francisco's district attorney Brooke Jenkins, the attack was likely "politically motivated".
In his police interview, Mr DePape described Nancy Pelosi as the "leader of the pack of lies told by the Democratic Party", adding that he wanted to "break her kneecaps".
Conservative figures, including Congressman Steve Scalise and Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, have also been targets of violent attacks by political opponents in recent years.
Evidence-free accusations against Marjorie Taylor Greene
Baseless theories in the aftermath of the attack weren't confined to the right.
Some liberal influencers seized on a tweet by Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, posted a day prior to the attack, which read: "Just wait until tomorrow."
A number of accounts with large liberal followings claimed that Ms Taylor Greene's tweet could be a hint that she was in on the attack on Mr Pelosi. There is no evidence whatsoever to support this theory.
Well, they got something right. LOL

So I just have to take your word for it? That's funny, because you're the guy that demands proof for everything.
The site was archived 18 times in 7 hours on Friday, but never once before. Not once. If you can't see the logical conclusion in that, then you are truly blinded by your political bias, or you're just doing your job.
I couldn't care less one way or the other on the politics at play here. Partisanship sucks in the largest way possible.
I just can't see how the DA, the police, the FBI, and whoever else is saying that this guy was a wing nut who broke into a home with intent to cause harm, could all be in on some kinda gig to make that all up. As opposed to - the guy was just a wing nut who broke into someones home with intent to cause harm.
Trump was asked about the attack during an interview with conservative radio host Chris Stigall on Tuesday. To be clear, what follows from the former president is nonsense and officials have gone on the record to denounce conspiracy theories like this.
"It's weird things going on in that household in the last couple of weeks," Trump said. "You know, probably, you and I are better off not talking about it. The glass, it seems, was broken from the inside to the out and, you know, so, it wasn't a break in, it was a break out."
Trump went on to say that he's "not a fan of Nancy Pelosi," but that what happened was "very sad." He added: "The whole thing is crazy. I mean, if there's even a little bit of truth to what's being said, it's crazy. But the window was broken in and it was strange the cops were standing there practically from the moment it all took place."

The left needed to stoke the flames of "right wing extremism" and found this loony bird, handed him a hammer and pointed at the Pelosis. Easy peasy. The CCTV footage will never be released, and if so, it'll only include a mysterious figure walking up the sidewalk.
Move along. Nothing to see here. The whole thing is enormously transparent. Yawn.
They evidently noticed something when the flashing lights of the cop cars got their attention.
