It's for the record.

The time is 7 o'clock. This article referred to "Black Adam" as a movie. Black Adam is a superhero.

In the months before police accused him of attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband, David DePape had been drifting further into the world of far-right conspiracy, antisemitism and hate.

"Manipulation of History," "Holohoax" and "It's OK to be white" are some of the topics that were discussed in a personal blog maintained by De Pape. 4chan is a popular message board on the right. The war in Ukraine was a ruse to get Jewish people to buy land.

There is a theory that former President Trump is at war with a group of Satan-worshipping elites who control the world. "Either Q is Trump himself or Q is the deepstate moles within Trump's inner circle," DePape wrote in the August 23rd entry.

Inti Gonzalez told The Times that her father was the author of the post. She said that she and her mother were devastated by the news of DePape's arrest.

She said she was surprised, but not really.

There was no motive for the attack at the Pelosi home. Law enforcement sources said the attacker yelled, "Where is Nancy?" San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said the attack was intentional.

Hyper-partisanship and divisive political rhetoric have been blamed for an increase in political violence and security incidents.

According to Scott, after a call to the Pelosi residence, officers found a man and a man holding a hammer. The invader struck Pelosi with the hammer after pulling the hammer from him. The suspect was disarmed by officers and taken into custody.

DePape was taken to a hospital and later arrested on suspicion of attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, and destruction of a cellphone to prevent someone from seeking help.

After the attack, Paul Pelosi had surgery. Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Nancy's Pelosi's office, said in a statement that Pelosi suffered a skull fracture and other injuries. The statement said that his doctors expected a full recovery.

A number of conservative creators were followed by DePape. He followed an account on the video-sharing site called Black Pilled, and then reposted some of its videos on his website. The internet is a place where people come to believe supposedly unacceptable facts, and the reposted videos include accusations of the FBI covering up child rape.

Three of DePape's relatives did not want to be interviewed. They haven't been in contact with DePape for a long time, and he's not in touch with his family. One of them said that DePape moved to California more than two decades ago.

The nudist who lived in a three-bedroom Victorian apartment in Berkeley with her then-fiance and her three children was referred to as a "Father figure" by the San Francisco Chronicle. He was the best man in the wedding.

"Remember when the UK arrested parents for trying to rescue their children from being gang banged at pedo rape parties and f--- let the pedo's continue their kiddie rape orgies?" he asked.

There is a bogus conspiracy theory that claims that children were trapped in a sexual abuse ring in a Washington, D.C. pizzeria run by Hillary Clinton and a chief aide.

The pizza gate is connected to the other side of the street. My friends would say pizza gate is not an elite pedophile sex ring and I'm like HELLO, what planet are you on?

He called the oppression of white people a "dog whistle for the genocide of the white race" in one instance. He questioned the Holocaust and said Jewish bankers were to blame for Hitler's rise to power.

The domain "godisloving.wordpress.com" was used by DePape, which included racist slurs and far-right conspiracy theories. DePape's website was taken down for violating the terms of service.

DePape had intimate emails and texts with family members. A post about going to a movie theater to watch a movie was filled with conspiracy theories and ideas about race.

Two days before the attack on Pelosi, a post was written about the critics. He wrote that he liked the superhero movie. The performance by Mr. was fantastic. He was the one carrying the movie.

The plot of the movie is an effort to push hate against white people, according to the writing. The actual plot of the story was to kill all white people. Black adams was just a plot to push their white hate narrative.

The section of DePape's personal website dedicated to posts about Jewish people was created days after antisemitic comments were made by West. Over the course of a 10-day period, he tried to debunk the Holocaust and repeated antisemitic sentiment.

He talked to his daughter. Sometimes their chats were about simple moments, such as whistling back at birds, while other times they were more angry with one another.

Gonzalez said she was aware that her father posted some of their text conversations, but she didn't pay much attention to the rest of it.

She didn't know that he posted all the stuff she sent him. "But I don't pay much attention to it."

She said her family did not want to talk about her father at the moment.

The chief executive of MyPillow said that the 2020 presidential election was stolen in a series of videos posted to Facebook.

There are websites with claims about the deadlines of vaccines.

One post said that the death rates being promoted are what the Y want to be promoted as.

The DePape's Facebook page was not accessible Friday. Meta didn't reply to a request for information.

The report was written by Times staff writers.
