Devin Nunes says he's leaving Congress by the end of the year

(CNN)Republican Rep. Devin Nunes of California announced Monday he'll leave the House in the coming weeks to become CEO of the Trump Media & Technology Group.

"I'm writing to let you know I've decided to pursue this opportunity, and therefore I will be leaving the House of Representatives at the end of 2021," Nunes said in a letter to his constituents.

Moments after his statement, the Trump Media & Technology Group released its own saying Nunes would be its chief executive officer.

Nunes, who faced the threat of a more-Democratic district through redistricting ahead of next year's midterms, is a close ally of former President Donald Trump. He previously served as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee when Republicans were in the majority, during which he led efforts among Trump's allies to discredit the FBI's Russia investigation and Special Counsel Robert Mueller's probe.

1. Better make sure Trump pays you in cash

he is not real good about paying people.

(couldn't happen to a nicer guy)

[homegirl]

40. WOW!

Our Democratic Gov. gets to name his replacement!!!

[moose65]

45. Nope

House seats aren't filled by appointment - that's only for the Senate. House seats must be filled by special elections.

[homegirl]

52. Thanks for the information

Special election, time for the local Democratic party organization to get to work! And write that check when you are contacted by the Democratic candidate!!!

[True Blue American]

47. Ooh! Good News!

[walkingman]

2. Birds of a feather flock together

[monkeyman1]

3. the pos is lost without his hero !!!

[tulipsandroses]

4. Let the grifting and corruption begin

So Nunes is going to run a 1 billion dollar Tech company? Alrighty then.
He has no expertise in tech or running companies but he’s the CEO?

[True Blue American]

6. Neither does Trump!

National Security is uneasy and Bloomberg wants to know who gave Trump 1 billion!

[tulipsandroses]

9. The only thing trump has expertise in is being a con man

If this was a legit thing, you would want someone with expertise. You’d be courting someone from Facebook or Google or other tech company who knows what they are doing. But since this another con, of course he gets a boot licker who won’t question anything.

[True Blue American]

48. Nunes can milk cows!

I think!

[Thunderbeast]

5. NOW I know why I got his fund raising robocall!

I have NO interest in supporting Nunes. I live 800 miles from his California district.

He must have programmed his un-targeted calls to grift one last time while sitting in Congress.

[marble falls]

7. Chief officer. Now that's a hoot. What's his cow and mom got to say about this?

[mitch96]

8. Leaving the house?? Time for the happy dance!!

[Siwsan]

10. Is he taking his cow with him?

Inquiring minds, and all..............

[taxi]

15. see 13 - !

[snowybirdie]

11. Is that the

Same company now being investigated by the SEC?

[ColinC]

12. I think there is a good chance that the number of open seats for the gop

Surpasses that of the Dems. Right now, folks are saying Dems are on track for a whooping based on the retirements, but we still have yet to see where the gop will be at.

[taxi]

13. Secret Identity of Nune's Cow revealed

Now we know TFG's media interest is now the Nune's Cow.

Is TFG's past tendancies of buying cows for beanstalk seeds something that Nunes's has considered. Does the prospect of having a goose that lays golden eggs outweigh the risks of getting run over by that career destroying bus? ettd

[Mr.Bill]

14. So a guy who had a high level security clearance

will be running Trump's media company. Wonderful.

Although seriously, I think the story about one billion being raised is total bullshit and the company will never get off the ground, and if it does it will fail like everything Trump has ever done.

[Evolve Dammit]

16. Mooo! Should be in jail for his midnight, inside waltzes to the White House.

[TygrBright]

17. This is SO perfect. New slogan for TMTG:

"Your source for cheap skeery comMOOnications!"

Logo could be a cow with orange hair.

helpfully,
Bright

[left-of-center2012]

18. Does he have prior experience in media and technology?

Or is he getting the job because his lips are super glued to Trump's rump?

[Escurumbele]

23. The second reason, it seems Moo's lips are sewn to the buffoon's butt

The money given to the buffoon is being investigated, if it came from some foreign country it will represent a threat to the USA, knowing that the buffoon sells himself so easy.

Now, if the DOJ (and I pray that Garland wakes up) finds the money coming from a foreign country, his media company may not take off, so Nunes may be out of office and out of a job as well, that would be perfect. Although Nunes may not know that he is most probably working for free (the buffoon doesn't like to pay), if the media company ever gets off the ground.

[reACTIONary]

39. It's the SEC, not the DOJ ...

... that is investigating. And let's hope Nunes is out both.

[Sancho]

19. мычание....

moo....

[NurseJackie]

20. So he's moooving on?

[BumRushDaShow]

25. Nunez reportedly said he will not be cowed into not working for Trump for the milked money.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

22. Going to be TFG's "Groom of the Stool"

[NCjack]

24. Looks very suspicious. Probably about to be revealed that Devin is up to his eyebrows

in the 1/6 Insurrection. Trying to get a jump on leaving the House before he is indicted.

[KatK]

26. Sticking constituents with big bill for special election and no representation before election! n/t

[turbinetree]

27. Have you fitted yourself with a prison suit....

[Rebl2]

28. Thought I read

today SEC is investigating trump new media group.

[ffr]

29. Is there some DOJ haunting he's getting wind of? Get out of town you POS!

May you slip on a banana peel and break a hip!

[TomSlick]

30. Devin, be careful not to let the door hit you in the Nunes on the way out.

Good riddance.

[Aristus]

31. Trump gave him a lifeboat.

I'll bet it leaks like a sieve...

[Jon King]

32. Translations, he would have lost his seat so now he can also con some money.

More grift, there will never be a Truth Social, its all a money making scheme. Zero need for another social network, Twitter even just admitted its founder could not monetize it very well and are trying another direction.

[winstars]

33. Hey Dev, cool story Bro!!!!!!!!!!

[DBoon]

34. Did he say he would stay til the cows come home?

[paleotn]

35. Later, cowboy.

[BobTheSubgenius]

As if another one was needed. Still....

[ZZenith]

37. COWTV!

Can’t wait!

38. ALL of you nearly owed me a monitor.

At first, I thought that this might be from The Onion. Too good to be true?

[rpannier]

41. Milking the Grift for all he can

He's taking the bull by the horns and moooooving out of congress.

[Javaman]

42. Mooooooo!nt

[monkeyman1]

44. the cow might need a intervention or a piss test ?

[pfitz59]

43. His lips are permanently attached to Trump's ass

they make a team..

[twodogsbarking]

46. He thinks he is going to get paid.

[Paladin]

49. AMF. Good riddance. (nt)

[TNNurse]

50. Go for it, Devin...

we won't miss you.

[FakeNoose]

51. So ... a cushy job with no qualifications or previous experience required?

Ri - i- i- ight!
