I suspect that the people that work at The Onion have been very nervous for the past 4 years, that reality would put them out of business. Same for those that write the New Yorker satire columns.

Conflict is attention, even when it's contrived. Attention is influence.

Isn't Maria Bartirimo one of the Smartmatic defendants? Might be time for that moron to start being a little more careful who she invites on her show.

Buttaroma is an even bigger tool than Kudlow. Seems she went teaparty years ago.

When the congressman’s father and brother sued reporter Ryan Lizza for implying that NuStar Farms, the family dairy, hired undocumented workers, they should probably have anticipated that they’d have to prove that their employees were all legal. And certainly their lawyer should have told them that they’d have to surrender employment records and sit for depositions if they were foolish enough to file such a suit.

lol oh lol another Beauty from Devin

Hey Devin, in order to win a defamation suit, you have to prove that what they said was, you know, false. It isn't enough that they said mean things which hurt your feels.

Nunes is also suing WaPo right now. Has also sued CNN and his cow, to name just a few.

There is a procedure in court for declaring someone a "vexatious litigant," meaning all their future lawsuits need pre-approval from a judge in order to proceed past the initial filings. It happens once you've filed a critical mass of meritless lawsuits.

Nunes is dangerously close.

It’s concerning to me that Nunes’ blizzard of frivolous lawsuits is still only ‘close’.

The list is longer than I had previously thought. I guess no one website has a comprehensive list as it might exceed their allotted hard drive space.

AFAIK, Nunes has

1. Sued WaPo now twice.
2. Sued CNN.
3. Sued McClatchy and Esquire Magazine.
4. Sued Twitter to unmask various parody accounts so that he can sue them.
5. Sued a dairy farmer and other local activists in Tulare country for challenging his description of himself as a "farmer."
6. Sued Democratic challenger Andrew Janz for re-tweeting posts from his Cow.
7. Sued Fusion GPS

Remember when Nunes was the reasonable one during debt ceiling / shutdown nonsense GOP pulled under Obama?
Let this be a lesson, "reasonable Republican" is an oxymoron. Or a moron on Oxy :)

I seem to recall that Nunes is a moderate on immigration, which seems odd as he's a huge Trump supporter and being hardline on immigration is kind of Trump's signature thing.

I think the issue with Nunes is not that he's an extremist. It's that he's a slimeball who saw on opportunity to elevate himself by kissing Trump ass.

LOL@ "Oxymoron or moron on Oxy."

I'm gonna laugh if (more likely when) they uncover multiple other crimes in this process.

You are right on the immigration... only because his family hires a bunch of immigrants (legal or illegal) to work on their farms.

He just compounds his embarrassment, by regurgitating all those horrible things said about him in every lawsuit. He's an idiot.

Don't be so mean to him. He's very sensitive. For example, I just noticed that when I start typing his name into Google, the first thing suggested is "Devin Nunes Cow." This must be emotionally traumatic for him, knowing that from now until the day he dies, whenever anyone speaks his name, "cow" will be the first thing that comes to mind. He needs comfort, not insults.

There, there, little Devin.

Thought about this line a few days ago. Wasn't rush Limbaugh an oxymoron?
