Vandals Trash Pelosi's Garage With Pig Head, Stimulus Demand

Vandals tagged House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s house with fake blood, a pig’s head, and an apparent demand to pass $2,000 stimulus checks. A picture said to be of Pelosi’s garage posted on Twitter shows messages written in black spray paint—“cancel rent,” “we want everything!”—alongside an anarchist symbol and “$2K,” a reference to the $2,000 proposed stimulus checks blocked by congressional Republicans. The vandals also placed a pig’s head and red paint along the driveway. Police confirmed to TMZ that they responded to a vandalism call at Pelosi’s house in the early hours of New Year’s Day.

but I take false flag to mean in this case that someone on Pelosi's side did this to make it look like anti-Pelosi people did it.

and since the house already voted FOR the $2k checks, who ever did this is either uninformed or a republican trying to shift blame from senate republicans

though I could be totally wrong, I admit.

Hopefully there is surveillance video and they catch the arseholes.

But when I saw it, I thought it was right wingers who did it. There are right wing anarchists, they used to call themselves libertarians.

I troll some right wing websites, and a common derogatory name for Pelosi is "Piglosi", so when I saw the pig's head, that's where my mind went.

reason it didn't pass. And since they believe whatever bs they're fed, someone or someones got pissed off. You know, like pizzagate. Bunch of gulluble losers. Seems odd there was no surveillance with such easy access though???

While a self-inflicted harm can be a False Flag, a “Parlock” or a “Backwards B” is a better descriptor.

than the Daily Beast citing a tweet showing "A picture said to be of Pelosi’s garage" from a random tweeter.

I'm not saying the story isn't true, but I'd just rather get some better sourcing.

"The story on the TMZ website included a Twitter post that featured a photo of a graffitied garage door that was spray painted with messages as well as what appeared to be a pig’s head and red paint on the home’s driveway."

Not exactly what I'd call solid reporting.

One saying anyone who adds anything to the stimulus bill not related to Covid-19 is the “same as looting during a natural disaster”


The other saying “blame Pelosi and Sanders for not getting your check because they wouldn’t sign off on the repeal of section 203”


They.are.pig.ignorant.
