Headline:  FactCheck.org, 11/3/2022
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy commented on the attack in an Oct. 30 Fox News interview. 
After host Maria Bartiromo brought up crime and said that “people are afraid to go outside their house,”  she asked if McCarthy had an update on Paul Pelosi, who underwent surgery for a fractured skull.  [And how did you get to work, Maria?  Stretch limo?]
He responded: “Well, let me be perfectly clear. Violence or threat of violence has no place in our society. And what happened to Paul Pelosi is wrong.” 
McCarthy [a1] said that he spoke to the House speaker, conveyed that his “thoughts and prayers” were with the family, wished her husband a “speedy recovery,” and said he hoped “we’re able to stop this crime across our country.”
Fox News, yes!

Press release on Congressional website.  Not a chance.

The assailant was in search of Speaker Pelosi, according to a person briefed on the attack. Before the assault occurred, the intruder confronted Mr. Pelosi in their home shouting, “Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?”

Don't hold your breath.
