Police in California have arrested a 42-year-old man for breaking into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's home and assaulting her 82-year-old husband with a hammer. Paul Pelosi suffered a skull fracture and other injuries, but is expected to make a full recovery. We speak to Democratic Congressmember Ro Khanna of California as President Biden links the attack on the Pelosis to election conspiracy theories spread by Republicans. Khanna says he is sickened by what happened" and that simply condemning violence is not enough. What we need to be responding to is the threat of political violence that is being stoked by conspiracy theories and propaganda and hate speech," he says.
