Representative Devin Nunes (R-CA)

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA-22)

Who: Devin Nunes represented California’s 21st district from 2003–2013, and has been representing the 22nd district since. He is currently the Ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee.

Why he made the list: Nunes is unbelievably bad at his job. He spent almost the entirety of the public impeachment hearings listing asking the witnesses if they’d heard of his weird conspiracy theories (spoiler: they had not). And, he’s suing a fake Twitter cow in real American court. Think that’s ridiculous? He’s literally subpoenaed Adam Parkhomenko, former DNC National Field Director, in pursuit of the identity of the administrator of @DevinCow. In fact, he’s filed so many lawsuits, this journalist is running out of room on her whiteboard:

Of course, we haven’t even gotten into his connection to the Trump/Ukraine scandal, and his suspicious trip to Vienna in November/December 2018 supposedly to dig up dirt on Joe Biden. And, in classic Milk Dud fashion, he’s threatened to sue:

On the issues:

This guy is clearly a joke, and I’m sure you’ve been convinced since the whole “suing a parody Twitter account” thing, but just in case:

He voted to require photo I.D.s for voting in federal elections.

Despite spending almost the entirety of the impeachment inquiry whining about how House Republicans aren’t getting enough representation in the hearings (spoiler: they are), he’s voted against allowing D.C. representatives in Congress.

And, in what is perhaps the biggest joke ever, he voted YES in 2007 to expanding whistleblower protections and preventing whistleblowers from employer retaliations. Life comes at you fast.

SUPPORT the legal fund for @DevinCow and @NunesAlt in their fight against Devin Nunes’ pointless lawsuits. Any left over money will go to Nunes’ Democratic challenger.
