Fake cow account must go, Devin Nunes demands in letter

Rep. Devin Nunes’ attorney last month demanded that his 2018 Democratic political opponent pressure an anonymous social media writer to delete comments on Twitter that mock Republican Nunes “day and night.”

Andrew Janz, the Fresno County prosecutor who ran against Nunes in 2018, interpreted the Oct. 11 letter from Nunes’ attorney Steven Biss as a threat to sue him.

“This is the first step in a lawsuit, to send a demand letter like this,” Janz said.
Nunes in March filed a lawsuit in Virginia against Twitter, a Republican political strategist and two anonymous writers behind social media accounts known as Devin Nunes’ Cow and Devin Nunes’ Mom alleging they conspired to defame him during Nunes’ 2018 reelection campaign

"I demand that you make the author of the cow account to stop tweeting false and defamatory statements about me, to retract those tweets, apologize to me and my family and delete the account within a day of the public apology.

You are legally, ethically and morally responsible to act now"


The prompt response was:

"Sir, this is the drive through at an Arby's"

With a pitchfork. An old rusty manure-encrusted, tetanus-infected pitchfork. Sideways.
