So, will Democrats now acknowledge that the immigration system is broken?  Will Democrats now acknowledge that the idea of sanctuary cities might attract those violating immigration laws?

The man accused of breaking into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's house and attacking her husband with a hammer could be deported from the U.S. after he is released from custody, the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, lodged an "immigration detainer" on 42-year-old Canadian national David DePape, DHS told CNBC in a statement.

The detainer requests that the San Francisco County Jail notify ICE before DePape is done serving time so that the immigration officers can take custody of him. ICE places immigration detainers on arrested individuals who it believes it can deport under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

Records show DePape entered the U.S. through the San Ysidro point of entry on the southern border in 2008 as a temporary visitor, classified as a B-2, officials said.

Canadian visitors who enter the U.S. for business or pleasure are generally only admitted for six months, officials said.

DePape, in his first court appearance Tuesday, pleaded not guilty to numerous charges including attempted murder. He is currently being held without bail, with his next hearing set for Friday, his public defender said.

The Justice Department has also charged DePape with two federal crimes: attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assaulting an immediate family member of a United States official with the intent to retaliate against the official, according to his criminal complaint.

Federal charging documents allege that DePape broke into the Pelosis' San Francisco residence early last Friday, confronting 82-year-old Paul Pelosi in his bedroom and stating "he was looking for Nancy."

The Democratic House speaker was in Washington, D.C., at the time. Paul Pelosi managed to call 9-1-1, and when officers arrived, DePape struck him in the head with the hammer, authorities said.

DePape himself later told police he saw the House speaker as the "'leader of the pack' of lies told by the Democratic Party," a federal affidavit said. He said he wanted to hold her hostage and talk to her, and if she lied he would break her kneecaps, the document said.

DePape arrived at the San Francisco home toting zip ties, tape, rope and at least one hammer, according to the affidavit.

In a Tuesday night court filing, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said DePape told police he was on a "suicide mission" and had plans to target other California and federal politicians.

Paul Pelosi is recovering in the hospital after undergoing surgery to repair a skull fracture.

So, NOW the Biden Administration wants to enforce immigration laws.

Only when it suits their ends. 

This ungrateful asshole attacked one of theirs! Can't be having that!

Now if he would have attacked a high ranking Republican that would be different. Poor misguided man is obviously insane; and would be back out on the street by dinner. A simply assault charge would be levied; and there would be no talk of deportation.

Democrats would claim this is what happens with Republicans attacking those that are in the country illegally. Immigration laws need to be reformed so this individual would be a US citizen.

Why would you ask that question? They have an answer i suspect as I am aware of a few that have. 

There is no moral high ground for democrats and republicans if we are going down the road of blaming political rhetoric for violence.

We might accomplish more without attempting to enjoy some small political victory. Not to mention we would need to pretend the past doesn't exist before a week ago. 

I think it's fair to say that both democrats and republicans believe the other is responsible for an uptick in violence. So why don't we talk about how we actually put a stop to violence? It's clear to rational people it's a bipartisan issue.

How many high ranking Democrats have been threatened and had their skulls fractured? There was one Republican who got shot on a softball field.

Pssst, Paul Pelosi isn't a high ranking Democrat?

Sometimes "winning" is just keeping the other side from winning. 

If one believes the Donald Trump Experience is a threat to both our democracy and the mental health of its citizens, then beating Trumpism and its related spin offs is a good in itself. 

Donald Trump's political career is based on riling up white people who think they are losing "their" country.  There are expansions and offshoots, but that is, and always has been, the basic idea. And its not really even a secret.

Oh, kind of like declaring a state of emergency when illegals show up in sanctuary cities.  There's a term for that.....HYPOCRISY.

Now if he would have attacked a high ranking Republican that would be different.

But no High Ranked ANYTHING was attacked.

I think if we are all honest Donald Trump and Joe Biden are political aberrations we'd like to all get through as quickly as possible.

I cannot think of a worse political time with worse options for the success of this country.

Jan 6 was political violence on a scale that we have not seen before. And that was a Trump/GOP/Right-wing project.

Ok, maybe the Civil War and the American Revolution were more violent (but we didn't see those).

There sure is a lot of senseless violence going on in America right now. People in NYC are horrified by the sharp uptick in random acts of violence on the subway system. These aren't even robberies. They are just assaults and stabbings with no real explanation.

"Something is in the air" as people sometimes say. And maybe we should figure out what that something is.

That’s never going to happen. He will never be released from custody. He will spend the rest of his life in prison - right here in the good old US of A.

What I can't understand is why a Canadian would be so concerned about an American politician to involve himself to that extent.  If I were him I'd plead insanity.  As well, I don't like the idea of deporting that maniac back to Canada - since he entered the USA from Mexico, send him back there.
