Who Is Devin Nunes? Narrated by Gina Brillon | NowThis

Rep. Devin Nunes went from suing a cow parody Twitter account to being center stage in the impeachment process. Here’s how the child of Portuguese immigrant farmers became a Republican heavy.

In US news and current events today, long before Devin Nunes was allegedly taking trips to Europe and milking Ukrainians for dirt on the Bidens, he was probably milking cows on his family’s dairy farm.

This is the story of Devin Nunes a congressman who went from suing a cow parody Twitter account to being center stage in one former steak salesman's impeachment process.

Devin Gerald Nunes was born in 1973 in Tulare, California. His family is of Portugese descent, they emigrated from Azores to the U.S., which is possibly why Nunes once had a lax view on immigration. Nunes once supported moderate immigration reform such as giving amnesty to undocumented people living and working in the U.S..

But as Trump has increased resources for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and instituted a family separation policy at the border, Nunes has stood by the recipient of Home Alone 2 residual checks.

Before Nunes backed Trump’s every move, he was working on his family’s 640-acre dairy farm, looking like this. Nunes grew up on the California dairy farm, seemingly milking cows and raising cattle. But along the way, he also raised some eyebrows.

A deeply sourced Esquire report notes that the farm secretly moved to Sibley, Iowa more than a decade ago. Nunes hasn’t acknowledged the move and the piece alleges that the farm heavily relies on cheap undocumented immigrant labor.

It’s worth noting that in 2010, Nunes campaigned for racist Iowa Congressman Steve King, who called illegal immigration a “slow-motion terrorist attack”. Nunes might want to stop campaigning for guys that want to rid the country of the very people his family’s farm ostensibly relies on to stay afloat. Nunes has since sued Ryan Lizza, the author of the Esquire piece, and the publisher, for $75 million in damages.

This guy won in 2016 by 30 points. He only won in 2018 by 5 points, we need to make sure this guy gets voted out in 2020.

[raquelnunes]

as part of my country, im sorry this greaseball exists....

[jasonblakes]

Thanks for doing this
And exposing one of the trump enablers

[markg.]

Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan are two of the biggest clowns in congress.

[ahpoiseheh]

Devin Nunes is the worst thing we’ve ever exported from Açores. Trust me.

The answer to his question, "How is it possible?" is the First Amendment. You would think someone who swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution would at least know what that is and why betraying that oath is a textbook example of treason.

Nunes... "A manure salesman with a mouthful of product".

[dannmarceau]

"How is it possible that I can be attacked relentlessly..." easy, ever look in the mirror?

[oranjmusemeyer]

I can't believe he was born where I was born!

[beardgangman]

I'm Devin Nunes's mom and I'm disappointed in him.

[DJohnN]

Idk guys...any man who can train his cow to use Twitter is pretty incredible. 💻 🐮

[stoneandonly]

Devin Nunes - a human host for Mad Cow Disease.

[IAmSuzyQ]

He is a cheesy whiner, so he kind of lived his dream. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Udderly pathetic.

[nasiresmail]

I don't care about Nunez but I am worried for the allegedly abused cow.

[cincyspin]

Devin Nunes put the "cow" back in "coward".

[sunnylilme]

And Portuguese descent too..wow. that's a special kind of self hatred.

[dr.g]

Donate to Phil Arballo’s campaign to unseat Nunes!

[Gunman]

No mention of the fact that Nunes would take Congressional information, bypass the media and head straight to the Trump campaign to brief them?

[YusufGinnah]

Nunes used to be the Cream of the Crop, now he's involved in udder schemes, including milking the 🍊🍄 when necessary...
