You know me, always questioning.

So, Devin Nunes, #CA22, really puts the rank into House Intelligence ranking.

He’s sued an imaginary cow, which we Twitterers have tittered over.

Now he’s suing CNN for the astonishing sum of $435,350,000 USD.

🧵

The core matter here is that CNN reported that Lev Parnas’ lawyer said Lev would be willing to testify he was in Vienna with Nunes to meet with Viktor Shokin.

He says the story is demonstrably false. Nunes says he was in Libya and Malta instead.
This is his 47 page complaint, featuring large photos and tweet screenshots that fill 1/3 of a page.

He claims these photos were taken on the trip

BUT WHERE IS THE CORROBORATING EVIDENCE?

I can’t find any news stories.
I can’t find any tweets.

Nothing from Muscat, except a remembrance of 41’s visit to Malta...
No tweets at all from Nunes ON ANY TOPIC.
Search him for the next four months, & Malta gets you a cryptic mention, Libya just a few trolls trolling.
At this point, what in the complaint gives us any proof? It’s his word against zilch public record.

To complain that CNN televised a known liar as his basis, well, has he never watched FOX? It happens all the time on cable.

Cuomo even says the lawyer might be lying
I can’t understand how Devin Nunes would go all the way to Malta to repatriate an American soldier and not make a statement to anyone, anywhere.

2 results. Two.

🤨
So much THERE’S NO THERE THERE with Nunes.

The story is not 404ed - just don’t have faith the lawyer put it in the complaint in clickable or cut and paste format, damn those line breaks.

I can say one thing about the Complaint. It has very little to say about Viktor Shokin. I have had a bit more to say, whether or not the cowboy from #CA22 has or has not met the man.

And if and when proof positive to the contrary becomes available I will eat my hat, but until then, I’m inclined to think Parnas is no bigger a liar or grifter than Nunes of the midnight Uber runs and mysterious trips to Azerbaijan, & that he was indeed in Ukraine, up to no good.
But if it was Malta, what are the odds? That tiny nation, rife with corruption, in the wake of the journalist Daphne Galizia’s murder, such a hotspot in the news this week as pressure mounts for Muscat to resign.

😒 Devin Zelig Nunes.
