Devin Nunes' Mom F*cked Up His Campaign Finance Reports

Who has their mommy do their FEC reports?




Two political committees belonging to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) have spent the past two days filing amended FEC reports to correct errors and omissions by their treasurer: his mom.

The fundraising committees—Nunes Victory Fund, and his leadership PAC, NEW PAC—have also removed Nunes’ mother’s email address and replaced them with an unspecified “Treasurer 1” and “Treasurer 2.”

Those emails serve as contact points for the Federal Election Commission, which sends notices called “Requests for Additional Information” (RFAIs) when compliance officials flag errors or inconsistencies. The FEC sent an additional five notices on Thursday and Friday to the conservative’s official campaign committee, where Toni Nunes has run the books since her son’s first congressional bid in 2002.

All but one of the campaign’s 2020 FEC reports filed by Nunes’ mom contain material errors, according to the RFAIs. Flaws include duplicate contributions from GOP mega-donors such as Home Depot CEO Bernie Marcus ($50.5 million career giving), billionaire energy mogul Kelcy Warren ($23.8 million), and investor Rex Sinquefield ($12.2 million).

The FEC also said NEW PAC failed to disclose a donation from health insurance provider Humana. An amended report filed Thursday shows the donation amount was $5,000, noting that the item was returned by bank on Jan. 22.

Maybe the Cow is bothering him too much, since he's spending (or was) time suing a non-existent cow (which the case was thrown out). Moron.

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) was buried under an avalanche of mockery and scorn after his campaign had to amend its finance filings with the FEC and pointed the finger at his mom for the screw-ups.

According to the Daily Beast, "Two political committees belonging to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) have spent the past two days filing amended FEC reports to correct errors and omissions by their treasurer: his mom," adding that two fundraising arms also deleted Nunes' mother's email address.

That, in turn, led to ridicule being heaped on Nunes and also brought back memories of all of the lawsuits Nunes has filed against Twitter critics -- including an internet "cow" which came into play with one commenter writing " Mooom."
