SUE THE BASTARDS!!!
Republican Devin Nunes is once again the target of a dishonest and vicious media smear campaign for his efforts to get to the bottom of the coup against President Trump and he’s fighting back.
The California congressman and ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee was the target of a CNN fake news report that Nunes traveled to Viena to meet with the former Ukrainian prosecutor who was fired at then-VP Joe Biden’s demand.
If the story sounds vaguely familiar it should because it is a cloned version of the thoroughly debunked Michael Cohen met the Russians in Prague yarn that was so phony that special counsel Robert Mueller didn’t even bother with it.
Now Nunes is suing the bastards and it isn’t just CNN but liberal garbage dump The Daily Beast which also promoted the latest in a line of big lies.
This is another Michael Cohen goes to Prague story. Shopped to the same crappy outlets that brought us the Russia hoax. I wonder who might be behind this.

Via Breitbart News, “Devin Nunes to Sue CNN, Daily Beast over Fake News Attacks”:
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence ranking member Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) intends to file lawsuits against both CNN and the Daily Beast over fake hit pieces the outlets have published about him in recent days, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.
Two pieces recently published in both outlets–one from Daily Beast earlier this week, and one from CNN published late Friday–alleged that the Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas, who is now indicted on unrelated charges, helped Nunes with a variety of matters when digging into Ukrainian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election on behalf of Democrats.
The Daily Beast story, from Betsy Swan (formerly Woodruff), alleges that Parnas helped Nunes set up a variety of meetings on Ukraine matters. The CNN story, from Vicky Ward, goes even further, alleging that Nunes arranged a secret trip to Vienna and met there with Victor Shokin, the Ukrainian prosecutor that former Vice President Joe Biden pushed to have fired when Shokin was investigating Burisma Holdings, the natural gas company paying Biden’s son Hunter Biden $83,000 per month. It is unclear at this time how much of these reports are blatantly false, but most of each of them appear to be inaccurate, according to sources familiar with the matter.
As such, Nunes is planning to sue both the Daily Beast and CNN over each story.
Rep. Nunes elaborated on his vow to take legal action against the fake news peddlers during an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo.
Nunes made it clear that he has chosen to take CNN and the Beast to court rather than to try to fight back on the slanted playing field of the corrupt media where he doesn’t stand a chance of getting a fair airing of his side of the story.
Rep. Nunes: I’m the last guy who wants to go to into the court. But the media has become totally corrupt that now they’re willing to actually engage and help with criminals, indicted criminals. These people are sick and the only way they’re going to be held accountable is through the courts.
While the First Amendment may protect the freedom of the press, it does not apply to fake news and propaganda which is all that the pathetic excuse for a national media trafficks in these days.
