BREAKING: Devin Nunes can't sue Twitter over statements by fake cow, judge rules

Last edited Wed Jun 24, 2020, 05:58 PM - Edit history (1)




A judge has ruled that Rep. Devin Nunes has no right to sue Twitter over statements made by a fake Internet cow, someone parodying his mother and a Republican strategist.

Judge John Marshall said in a decision Friday that Twitter was “immune from the defamation claims of” Nunes, R-Tulare, due to federal law that says social media companies are not liable for what people post on their platforms.

Nunes “seeks to have the court treat Twitter as the publisher or speaker of the content provided by others based on its allowing or not allowing certain content to be on its internet platform,” Marshall wrote. “The court refuses to do so.”



................hahaha up yours Nunes, suck up the humiliation by an imaginary cow.

and Ted Lieu got stuck in, his letter is hilarious.







Epic trolling go on now....

I'd really like to know who funds Devin Nunes and all his frivalous lawsuits. Someone whose last name starts with a 'P' and ends with 'utin?'

I fail to see why we taxpayers should pay the costs every time for Nunes' hurt feelings.
