US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says husband's attack highlights 'fear' in heated political climate

Firstpost  

The man accused of the attack, David DePape, 42, allegedly intended to tie up Pelosi and break her kneecaps, but found only her 82-year-old husband Washington, United States: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday a violent attack on her husband had highlighted the “fear” felt by poll workers and other Americans in the heated political climate ahead of next week’s midterm elections. The man accused of the attack, David DePape, 42, allegedly intended to tie up Pelosi and break her kneecaps, but found only her 82-year-old husband. “That has driven home to me the fear that some people have about what’s out there, coming at poll workers and the rest,” Pelosi said in a video posted to her Facebook page. In a speech this week, US President Joe Biden linked the attack on Pelosi to the political assault unleashed by ex-president Donald Trump’s supporters against Congress on 6 January, 2021, calling emboldened violence “the path to chaos in America.” In her video, Pelosi said “it’s going to be a long haul,” but that her husband “will be well.” As for Tuesday’s midterm elections, in which polls show Republicans poised for potentially heavy victories, Pelosi said that “there is no question that our democracy is on the ballot.” Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News, India News and Entertainment News here.
