I'm not being paid to comment on Nunes. I just think he is an intellectually dishonest jerkoff who overtly abuses the legal system and does his constituents an extreme disservice by engaging in naked partisanship to their detriment and to the detriment of our country a whole. So, in that regard, I'm happy to do so for free.

Vision is diminished in your left eye and blind in your right eye, resulting in distorted conclusion.


If you substitute Schiff for nunes , you might have a chance.


Projection is a tactic used by the left, requires mirrors and smoke.

I'm not on "the left" nor does my disdain for Nunes mean I embrace Schiff. Try again.

And protected by the First. That is what we're discussing, yes?

Nah, I despise people who try to abuse the legal system to muzzle the press on my own dime. Nunes can go stand in the corner with squirrel-fancying furry Bob Murray. (Wouldn't mind learning who's paying Nunes' lawyers, though...)

Of course, changing the libel laws to make it harder to say bad things about those with deep pockets was a Trump campaign promise. As it stands now, journalists can say anything that's even remotely true, no matter how embarrassing for those with money and power. Can't have that.

I love that there's a new sub for media, however, it isn't here to dupe on everyone else.

That's 100% factual, completely protected by the First, and Nunes knows that. Which is why he files in a state with no anti-SLAPP statute.
Exactly, maybe he is suing the wrong person maybe he should sue Parnas or his attorney. Listening to him be interviewed regarding the 4 phone calls with Parnas he couldn't recall but he didn't flatly indicate he didn't speak with him. Parnas will be testifying shortly.


Still waiting for the details on his trip to Europe with his staff last December.

This will work against him he is in a singular minority bringing this lawsuit and it makes him look petty, same as his problem with his cows and mothers twitter accounts.
