While many in the past have suggested, based on her demeanor, that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) may drink too much, it appears that her husband Paul has been arrested for DUI.
TMZ reported that Paul Pelosi was arrested just before midnight Saturday night in Napa County, and then booked hours later into jail on two counts.
The two counts were both misdemeanors, driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher.
Napa County Booking Records show Paul Pelosi’s date of birth and according to TMZ, it matches up with known information about him.

TMZ added:
No word on whether the Speaker herself was with Paul during this bust — as you know, she’s often in D.C. for her job … but since it’s Memorial Day weekend, she could’ve possibly been back home with her family for a bit — but it seems unlikely. At the moment, it appears she’s in Rhode Island for a commencement speech to graduates there.
She hasn’t publicly acknowledged Paul’s arrest, and neither have any of her children or immediate family as far as we can tell.
In any case, Paul’s bail was set at $5,000 — so we imagine he’s already out at this point. He’s been married to Nancy since 1963.
UPDATE:
Washington Examiner’s Abigail Adcox recently tweeted:
“A spokesperson for the speaker told me: ‘The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast’.”
