Pelosi staffer pumps the brakes when pressed on husband’s hit-and-run: ‘That’s enough’

House Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., declined to answer repeated questions Friday about her husband’s hit-and-run case before a staffer abruptly stepped-un to put an end to the exchange.

“Ok, that’s enough. That’s enough!” the staffer raised her voice after Fox News Digital asked the lawmaker about the latest drama with her husband, Paul Pelosi.

The brief exchange came nearly two weeks after California authorities recommended that Paul face a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge stemming from a July 3 crash in Yountville, California.

Napa County Sheriff’s Office investigators said the 86-year-old was driving a convertible when it collided with a legally parked Tesla, which was unoccupied. The impact caused substantial damage to both vehicles, and witnesses told deputies the car briefly stopped before leaving the area. However, Paul did not call the police.

He was later located about a quarter-mile from the crash site. Authorities said his vehicle had substantial front-end damage consistent with the collision.

Paul reportedly told deputies he knew he had struck something but said he did not know exactly what he had hit.

After completing its investigation, the sheriff’s office recommended that the Napa County District Attorney’s Office charge him with misdemeanor hit-and-run for allegedly leaving the scene of a property-damage collision. Pelosi was not arrested. Prosecutors will make the final determination on whether to file criminal charges.

Authorities emphasized that alcohol was not believed to have played a role in the incident. A preliminary alcohol screening test found no alcohol in Paul’s system, and no injuries were reported.

The sheriff’s office also referred him to the California Department of Motor Vehicles for a driving capability evaluation, describing the referral as standard procedure for elderly drivers involved in similar crashes.

The crash is the latest traffic-related incident involving Pelosi’s husband.

In 2022, Paul pleaded guilty to misdemeanor driving under the influence after a Napa County crash that injured the other driver. He was sentenced to three years of probation, ordered to pay more than $6,000 in restitution and fines, complete a three-month DUI education program and install an ignition interlock device in his vehicle for one year.

Later that year, he made headlines again after being seriously injured when an intruder broke into the San Francisco home he and struck him multiple times with a hammer. The attacker, David DePape, was later convicted in both federal and state court on charges stemming from the assault.

Fox News Digital reached out to Pelosi’s office for comment but did not hear back by time of publication. The congresswoman and former House Speaker is set to retire at the end of the current Congress in January after nearly four decades in office.
