speaker's husband met during drunken night out in San Francisco: Cops say attacker arrived with bag of zip ties
New Twitter CEO Elon Musk used his freedom of speech platform to promote a theory suggesting Paul Pelosi's attacker was a gay prostitute.
In response to a tweet by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Sunday, the 51-year-old billionaire shared a link to an article suggesting the House Speaker's husband left a San Francisco gay bar with David DePape early Friday morning before he was allegedly attacked with a hammer.
Responding to Clinton's tweet that the attack was the fault of Republican 'mouthpieces' spreading 'hate and deranged conspiracy theories,' Musk said: 'There's a tiny possibility there may be more to this story than meets the eye.'
Musk spoke as police sources told CNN that DePape arrived at the Pelosi home with a bag of zip ties.
He then shared a link to a story published by an obscure outlet called the Santa Monica Observer, which appears to have crashed since its story was highlighted by Musk.
The story, which can still be accessed in an online archive, was headlined: 'The Awful Truth: Paul Pelosi Was Drunk Again, And In a Dispute With a Male Prostitute Early Friday Morning.'

Doubtful. It takes really heavy duty zip ties to restrain somebody. There was a lot of outright lies in that DM story, but it's not hard to pick them out. The question is: Why would the UK be so vested in protecting Pelosi?

I dunno, I guess the fact that the DM felt the need to waste a thousand words worth of my time trying to convince me that a homosexual, let alone a homosexual male prostitute, is somehow a radical right-wing Trump supporter just ticked me off.
I'm funny that way. I don't like being on the receiving end of active psychological warfare operations.
