As we reported, Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), was arrested on Saturday for driving under the influence in California.
It turns out that there was a bit more to that story. He was driving a Porsche and was involved in a crash with another car before that arrest, according to the police.
Paul Pelosi, 82, was attempting to cross in Napa County’s State Route-29 in a 2021 Porsche late Saturday when he was in a collision with a 48-year-old man driving a 2014 Jeep, the California Highway Patrol said.
There were no reported injuries and the police report does not identify either driver as being at fault, CNN said.
However, the driver of the Jeep was not arrested, while Pelosi was busted at 11:44 p.m. and booked into the Napa County Detention Center, records show.
It’s not clear why if he was busted at 11:44 p.m. on Saturday that he wasn’t booked until 4:13 a.m., according to the report. Was there a problem of some sort that hasn’t been explained yet?
Pelosi was charged with two misdemeanors: driving under influence and driving with a blood alcohol of 0.08 or higher.
He was bailed out a few hours later at 7:26 a.m., on $5000 bail.
Nancy Pelosi’s spokesperson issued a statement about her husband’s arrest. “The Speaker would not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast.” Pelosi was in Rhode Island on Sunday to speak at the Brown University commencement.
The plot of the DUI arrest story thickens. While the information doesn’t say who was at fault yet, it’s very problematic to be driving while allegedly drunk. You’re not only endangering yourself but you’re endangering others. He’s lucky that he wasn’t injured and that he didn’t injure anyone else. And what was he doing out at that time, driving allegedly in that condition?
Yes, I’m sure Nancy Pelosi who is not silent about anything else and who has a lot to say about other people wants it to be a “private matter.” Except when it’s a public arrest, it ceases to be a private matter.
While the Speaker was essentially begging for a bit of indulgence that her husband’s arrest be treated as a “private matter,” she was busy spreading discord and disinformation to the Brown graduates, trying to smear her political opponents.
“In the months since the insurrection, we’ve seen further assaults on democracy,” Pelosi said. “Shameful campaigns of voter suppression and election nullification. A Supreme Court poised to erase a woman’s right to decide and threaten even more privacy rights, including marriage equality. We can’t let that happen.”

If all of that is the case, then why did Nancy Pelosi turn down 20,000 national guard that President Trump approved. They had all this info a few days before and Nancy said NO. Plus Donald J Trump was the best President ever. Why didn’t the J6 panel let Jim Banks and Jim Jordan on the committee. Why aren’t they letting Republicans ask questions. It is .show just like Russia Russia Russia, Years you put the 45 President under this stupid hoax wasting our money for nothing. Come over to the light. PLEASE
D’Alesandro, Nancy; her family being of the Italian Mafia.
Ordered random hits like a take out order.
It’s difficult to get a DUI in Napa
Go figure…. She boasts in an interview about her expensive lifestyle and has the nerve to show Expensive ice cream that she stores in an elaborate freezer and as she gives a speech to inexperienced University graduates, her husband is out driving his Porche intoxicated, and involving himself in a traffic accident… I can bet the reason it took so long to book him for the DUI, was to verify if they couldn’t sweep it under the rug.. Understand that Newsom, her nephew, is in charge of the CHP! When are the People in California going to wake up and Realize her family are making a Mockery out of the Residents of California!!
He still has two less OWIs than the Governor of Iowa.
Iowa removes files on governor’s drunk driving arrest that exposed personal info – Chicago Tribune
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
3 Wongs makes it write
This is about the only time Nancy “Pinnochio” as I refer to her, is being silent. The time lapse on the booking may be telltale? Wonder if the arrest record is a public record? Probably not.
If I were her husband I’d be drinking something stronger then wine.
hemlock!
I can’t remember who, but some lady said to some guy something like, “If I were married to you, I’d poison you.” The guy replied, “Lady, if I were married to you, I’d drink it!”
Lady Astor said that to Winston Churchill. )
Ha! I found a reference. I wanted to say I heard that the exchange was between Will Rogers and someone, but this seems to be q good reference.

If Pinko Pelosi’s face was the first thing I had to see in the morning, I’d drink heavily too.Now there’s somebody who really needs a mask mandate.
I could not have said it better.
ONLY WACKJOBS LIKE YOU REJOICE- THIS IS NOBODYS BUSINESS BUT THE FAMILY !!
Actions of political figures of all stripes and their families become public property when law enforcement is involved,, read back a couple of months and you’ll find multiple stories of similar fashion (most of which were buried in payollah or under-handed threats.). For the past four years The Wicked Witch of the North has demanded public lynching of every person who disagrees with her thinking. Even today she spews hate, filth and lies at Brown University. She and her tagalog doggiee hubbie deserve what they deserve.
Perfect screen name commie
When they told the old woman about it she was most likely drunk. Rejoice for him driving and hot her
Hey Dick! He was driving on public roads while intoxicated, putting the public at risk. It is public business, just like any other person that breaks the law, endangers lives and gets arrested for it.
Du kennst diese Schwänze, sie sind Schwänze!
English, please
per a translation service, “you know those dicks, they’re dicks.”
I speak German. It’s: You know those dicks, they’re dicks!
Do you think if this had been someone in Trump’s family Pelosi would have let it be a personal matter?
You are 100% incorrect sir. He chose to drink & drive which endangered the public His wife is 3rd in line to the presidency.
She travels around the country, on our dime, telling people what they should & should not do.
Her politics and position, combined with his disregard for public safety makes this a very public matter. You don’t have to like it, none of us care but you should cry in private.
The true “WACKJOBS” are the morons who continue voting for her and/or defend her.
When driving on a public road it’s remains to be public!!! Irregardless of what family they belong to especially driving intoxicated. If a driver kills someone, they will be held accountable and charges incurred.
It becomes a public record of the court.
It will become a public record if someone is driving intoxicated and killing someone. Very soon the world will know. The repercussions will be severe.
Well I remember y’all (Liberals) having a lot to talk about one of the Bush twins getting into trouble with the law while drinking! And the Left commented negatively about “EVERYTHING” the Trump family members did. Even those who didn’t get DUIs and worked without pay.
And trump even put on his bright red lipstick to suck Kim Jong Un’s commie dick, let’s not forget that.
That’s going above and beyond MAGA. What a great
presidentwhore.That would be YOUR illustrious leader and his hand picked escort…Let’s go Joe Blow Brandon
