No real jail time is ridiculous. Every single one of us should be appalled.
How may times do think heāll drive drunk before he kills someone?

After being spotlighted by the right to see if heād get the same punishment as us lāil peopleā¦Pelosi got a slap on the wrist. It was nothing more than a gesture with the sole goal of putting this to bed for Nancy. This is another example of the two tier system of justice between those that are politically connected on the leftā¦and the rest of us.

May not, he can after all afford a driver, which is why this case was so stupid to begin with. Me and my family were touring wineries in the same area at the time, we paid a guy to drive us around and we arenāt Pelosi rich. It was like forty bucks an hour. Also why he should be held to a higher standard then some broke guy who canāt afford a driver. All he had to do was open an app, moron.
Did he though?
The probation and fines are consistent with a first offense, but what about the jail time?
Well, in 2019¹ it turns out that about a third of first time DUI offenders avoided jail time upon completion of probation. Of 71,829 offenders, ~19,461 people avoided jail²
So, no I donāt think your description of a ātwo tieredā system is accurate; at least not in the way you intend it. The culprit here is money, not status.

You get one million happy llama emojis for that Yzma reference. Actually 2 million

Is this his first or is there another Paul Pelosi that also got a DUI in 2018?

No way to tell until we know the race of the perpetrators.

Anywho, lets hope it was just a deranged lunatic or a botched robbery. We donāt need to stoke the political violence machine anymore.
