Rep. Nunes' Democratic opponents capitalizing on memo release #GoodBoyDevin #ReplaceNunes
Andrew Janz is going for Nunes’ jugular and it’s working!
The leading Democratic candidate hoping to unseat the Republican chairman of the committee has raised more than $100,000 in campaign donations.Since Nunes' classified memo was released on Friday, the campaign for California prosecutor Andrew Janz has raised $130,379 and is just shy of 4,000 individual contributions.
Janz's campaign manager, Heather Greven, told CNN that Nunes is doing the campaign a big favor. The campaign has raised more in the past eight days than since Janz announced his candidacy back in April, according to Greven.
The campaign also released a digital ad Thursday night attacking the Republican memo and Nunes' involvement in drafting it and pushing for its release.
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA-22) has been named to head Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) – the dubious company which Trump wants to use to circumvent his banishment from social media.
From Trump’s viewpoint, Nunes is the perfect person for the job. He would have fit in well in Trump’s cabinet:
No experience whatsoever in tech or major media.
Capable of holding a petty grudge for extended periods of time.
A serial filer of frivolous and spurious lawsuits. He even sued a fake cow on Twitter (he lost!).
A notorious pusher of wacky conspiracy theories.
Slavishly devoted to Donald Trump.
All that makes Nunes well positioned to lead a Trump company whose main product is called Truth Social.
Nunes will be resigning from the House in a few weeks. It seems that the new US House map for California would put him in a more competitive district if he wished to remain a House member.
This recent tweet by Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA-33) is one of the many reasons why he is one of my favorite members of the US House of Representatives.
As CNN reported:
Rep. Ted Lieu in December accused Republican Rep. Devin Nunes of conspiring with Lev Parnas, an associate of President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and a key figure in the Ukraine scandal at the center of Trump's impeachment, to undermine the US government. A lawyer for Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, then threatened legal action if Lieu doesn't apologize.
Devon Nunes is a reflexive Trump flunky -- and a particularly stupid and hypocritical one at that. He is currently involved in a lawsuit against a fake cow (you read that right). He loves to file idiotic lawsuits despite being a co-sponsor of H.R.1179 - Discouraging Frivolous Lawsuits Act.
Anyway, in his written reply to the attorney representing Nunes, Ted Lieu ended his letter with this line.
😎
EDIT: It looks like Ted Lieu was right about Nunes in the first place.
