Episode 329: On October 28, 2022,\xa0Paul Pelosi, husband of former U.S. House Speaker\xa0Nancy Pelosi, was brutally attacked in his San Francisco home. The perpetrator? A 42-year-old Canadian man named\xa0David DePape.\nBorn and raised in British Columbia, DePape's journey from a small-town Canadian to an alleged political extremist is a disturbing tale of online radicalization. As we'll explore in this episode, DePape became immersed in far-right conspiracy theories and extremist ideologies, particularly those aligned with QAnon and other conspiratorial narratives.\nThe attack on Paul Pelosi serves as a chilling reminder of how online misinformation and conspiracy theories can lead to real-world violence. We'll examine how DePape's beliefs evolved, the role of social media echo chambers in his radicalization, and the broader implications of this case for Canadian and American society.\nJoin us as we unravel the events leading up to that fateful night in San Francisco and explore the dark undercurrents of extremism that can turn an ordinary Canadian into a violent offender on the international stage.\nSources:\nTIMELINE: Latest updates after Paul Pelosi attacked inside San Francisco home\nPaul Pelosi 911 call transcript: Read what he told SFPD\nWhat to Know About Agonal Breathing\nSFPD says Pelosi attack 'not random'\nNancy Pelosi (@TeamPelosi) on X\nSearch: David DePape | The Star\nr/insanepeoplefacebook\nDavid DePape's Blog\nADL | QAnon Backgrounder\nSTART QAnon Research Brief_5_26\nDavid Depape | News, Videos & Articles | Global News\nAccused in assault on Nancy Pelosi\u2019s husband grew up in B.C. | Globe and Mail\nMan Accused of Attacking Nancy Pelosi\u2019s Husband Left Trail of Far-Right Hate | Vice\nWho is David DePape?
