Devin Nunes at ‘dead end’ in legal battle to expose identity of fake Twitter cow: Lawyer
Published 2 mins ago on June 12, 2020 By Matthew Chapman




On Friday, The Fresno Bee reported that an attorney for Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) says he is at a “dead end” in the legal case to expose the true identity of @DevinCow, a satirical Twitter account that pretends to be a cow belonging to Nunes and continually mocks him.

But in the end his complaint was seen but not herd.

His lawyer initially took stock of the situation and told Devin he would never steer him wrong. But in the end, he just milked it for all it was worth.

Nunes claims he was not amoosed, but hopefully his constituents will tan his hide and tell him "you're pasture prime".

He will fade into oblivion, in the dustbin of obscurity - a non-entity - a has-been that never was.

He can choke on his own milk, for all I care.
