https://www.fresnobee.com/article247930665.htmlThe complaint by Nunes provides almost no specific examples to support his stalking and harassment accusations. The man he is suing has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit under Californias anti-SLAPP law, which discourages frivolous lawsuits.
In a response to the motion, Nunes says his complaint should be heard.
In the complaint filed in Tulare County Superior Court in October, Nunes says the man, Benjamin Paul Meredith, runs a network of anonymous Twitter accounts that stalk (Nunes) 24 hours, every day. Nunes says the accounts have posted thousands of comments threatening him, posting his personal information and encouraging others to harass him.
Nunes also is suing Twitter, which he accuses of aiding and abetting Merediths unlawful acts. The last defendant listed is Does 1 to 100 or the Doe Defendants, as Nunes alleges there is an extensive network of anonymous accounts that are harassing him.
He must have a lot of MOOney to hire all these attorneys.

Nunes could do worse.
