Nancy Pelosi Dodges Questions on Husband's Hit-and-Run Charge and $3.3 Billion Israel Aid Vote

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 21

Summary

  • Nancy Pelosi repeatedly declined to answer questions about Paul Pelosi’s newly filed misdemeanor hit-and-run charge and her vote for an amendment to cut $3.3 billion in U.S. aid to Israel.
  • Paul Pelosi, 86, was charged Friday in Napa County with a misdemeanor and an unsafe-turn infraction after allegedly hitting a parked Tesla on July 3 and leaving without contacting the owner.
  • Deputies found him about a half mile away after his Maserati broke down; he said he knew he hit something but was unsure what it was and planned to return.
  • The case prompted authorities to seek a behind-the-wheel driving evaluation and revived scrutiny after his 2022 DUI crash, which ended in a guilty plea to a misdemeanor.
  • Pelosi’s Israel vote came with more than 100 House Democrats backing Rep. Thomas Massie’s failed amendment, 314-104, underscoring growing Democratic pressure over Israel’s war in Gaza.
