One of the great mysteries of 2022 may finally be resolved today. What was going on in Nancy and Paul Pelosi’s San Francisco mansion on the evening when police responded to a break-in and the subsequent hammer attack on Paul Pelosi allegedly committed by David DePape? Without ever offering a rational explanation for the secrecy, the San Francisco police have steadfastly refused multiple requests to release the security camera and police body cam footage to the press. Prosecutors handling the case have similarly fought to keep it secret.

In a rare act of actual investigative journalism, multiple press outlets, including the Associated Press, went to court demanding the release of the videos. Yesterday, a judge agreed with the plaintiffs and ordered the city to turn over the videos. They will supposedly be released as soon as today.

Footage of the attack on former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband will be released to the public after a judge on Wednesday denied prosecutors’ request to keep it secret.

San Francisco Superior Court Judge Stephen M. Murphy ruled there was no reason to keep the footage secret, especially after prosecutors played it in open court during a preliminary hearing last month, according to Thomas R. Burke, a San Francisco-based lawyer who represented The Associated Press and a host of other news agencies in their attempt to access the evidence.

The city District Attorney’s Office turned over the footage to Judge Stephen Murphy at the conclusion of the hearing. How it will be distributed was not specified.

The fight to prevent the release of the videos may wind up being more revealing than the footage itself. The AP continues to claim that rumors about what happened during the encounter with police were “false information.” The prosecutors took that ball and ran with it, saying that releasing the videos would only assist in the spreading of “false information.”

But that’s nonsensical in every way imaginable. All of the buzz surrounding Paul Pelosi’s alleged actions that evening were based on statements that the police gave to reporters. The only reason for the speculation was the fact that the city wouldn’t release the videos which should be able to put the matter to rest. People may lie, but cameras don’t. The public deserves to know who answered the door (they’re still saying it was Pelosi) and why Paul Pelosi would have calmly walked back to stand by his attacker rather than exiting the dwelling and taking shelter behind the police. Perhaps we will find out later today.

Meanwhile, Paul and his more famous wife, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have continued to become increasingly wealthy considering her role as a public servant. The Pelosis sold $3 million dollars worth of stock in Google in December. In a simply amazing coincidence of timing, that was just weeks before Congress announced a massive antitrust probe of the company and its stock value tanked. How lucky can one couple get, eh?

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) and her multimillionaire husband sold up to $3 million in shares of Google in recent weeks—just before the Biden Justice Department launched an antitrust probe of the tech giant.

Paul Pelosi sold 30,000 shares of Google from Dec. 20 to Dec. 28, according to a financial disclosure filing the former House speaker submitted to the House Ethics Committee. The Pelosis made an undisclosed profit from the investments, according to the filing.

These people really aren’t even bothering to try to hide it anymore. And this is a bipartisan corruption scandal because swamp-dwellers of both parties have been caught doing it. This is why the bill to ban members and their families from engaging in stock trading (recently introduced yet again by Josh Hawley) is named The PELOSI Act. She’s not the only one doing it, but she’s certainly been among the more successful inside traders in Washington. People are rightly fed up with this scam and we should demand that they put an end to it.
