‘Moron’ Devin Nunes brutally mocked after ‘damning’ report turns the devout Trump defender into a ‘fact witness’
One of the more shocking findings detailed in the report is the number of contacts between Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes (R-CA) and Rudy Giuliani as well as indicted businessman Lev Parnas.
“On the morning of May 8, Mr. Giuliani called the White House Switchboard and connected for six minutes and 26 seconds with someone at the White House. That same day, Mr. Giuliani also connected with Mr. Solomon (a columnist at The Hill) for almost six minutes, with Mr. Parnas, and with Derek Harvey, a member of Representative Nunes’ staff on the Intelligence Committee,” the report detailed.

No wonder Nunes has been so mad. Under committee rules, he would have known that Schiff subpoenaed call records for Giuliani and his associates and that it would turn up all these contacts with him. https://t.co/quzXadaLy7

Page 46: "Over the course of the four days following the April 7 article, phone records show contacts between Mr. Giuliani, Mr. Parnas, Rep. Devin Nunes, and Mr. Solomon. Specifically, Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Parnas were in contact with one another, as well as with Mr. Solomon."

While some see the behavior as shocking, the cozy relationship between Nunes and the White House isn’t unexpected according to others.
You can see the comments attacking Nunes, calling for an indictment and more in the tweets below:
Far and away the most damning part of the new House report is the newly disclosed phone calls between Giuliani and everyone else involved — Nunes staff, Parnas and Fruman, OMB, Bolton, and others.

Many of the references to @DevinNunes in here are about his contacts with Giuliani and others — not his role as ranking GOPer on the committee https://t.co/M25weA0eMu

Yeah, look, let’s cut the shit. Nunes, Solomon, Rudy and Rudy’s indicted goombah clients acted as Trump’s agents to use Ukraine’s political system to do oppo research on Joe Biden. Their blaming Ukraine for election interference is pure projection. https://t.co/UT83NmD9Z8

Reading through the Democrats impeachment report, and I’m seeing a bunch of Devin Nunes name listed.
Someone is going to be a witness.

Nice try Dems. Just cause Devin Nunes had an 8 minute wrong number call with Lev Parnas doesn't mean they were in cahoots. You never dialed a wrong number and used your time on the call to fully understand how it was you got the number wrong, to make sure it didn't happen again?

Nunes was involved and it's all coming out now.🔥 https://t.co/7d9VDD8okI

I guess Devin Nunes was too busy suing imaginary cows to mention to the committee but he was having late night "Love you! Love you more! You hang up first. No you hang up first" calls with Lev Fucking Parnas.

Wow! Dirty @DevinNunes is an impeachment fact witness. https://t.co/BxdONJBF6m

Holy shit. Devin Nunes has been on the phone with Lev Parnas more than most of you all have been on the phone with your mothers. (Call your mothers!) https://t.co/niz1xTMsqO

Pretty remarkable that the House Intelligence Committee’s impeachment report includes call records between Rudy Giuliani and Devin Nunes—the top Republican on the committee.https://t.co/ajkHFYMKLy pic.twitter.com/MZxpGvm9Z4

One of the most striking things about the report are the references to Devin Nunes – not for his role as ranking member of the Intelligence Committee, but because of his contacts with Rudy Giuliani and Lev Parnas. https://t.co/gx7RcJcipb

Trump declares himself the ‘greatest of all presidents’ in manic tweetstorm attacking Pelosi and Democrats
Donald Trump broke out of his Twitter hibernation on Saturday afternoon just before flying off to Florida for a pair of fundraisers, and used the opportunity to declare himself the "greatest of all presidents."
Attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for not passing his signature trade bill, Trump then went after Democrats for trying to impeach him -- saying they were making a big mistake.
On Twitter, the president wrote: ""Hard to believe, but if Nancy Pelosi had put our great Trade Deal with Mexico and Canada, USMCA, up for a vote long ago, our economy would be even better. If she doesn’t move quickly, it will collapse!"

Donald Trump sounds like a complete lunatic because he’s isolated himself in a far-right media bubble
Welcome to another edition of What Fresh Hell?, Raw Story’s roundup of news items that might have become controversies under another regime, but got buried – or were at least under-appreciated – due to the daily firehose of political pratfalls, unhinged tweet storms and other sundry embarrassments coming out of the current White House.
If you have an older relative who spends way too much time stewing in the conservative media, you may have experienced a moment when you not only disagreed with him, but you realized that you had no earthly clue what he was going on about. Perhaps it was when he started talking about the UN plot to eliminate golf courses and replace paved roads with bicycle paths. Maybe he stopped you in your tracks with a discourse on why flies were attracted to Barack Obama, or complained about the government insisting on referring to Christians as "Easter-worshippers" or expressed outrage over 9/11 hijackers being given leniency by Muslim jurists.

Trump’s claim impeachment ‘nullifies’ 2016 election blown up in new House Judiciary Committee report
On Saturday, the House Judiciary Committee released their report outlining the offenses committed by President Donald Trump, and the legal framework for impeachment — which clears the way for Congress to write and approve articles of impeachment against him.
One of the key issues examined by the report is the claim, repeatedly made by the president and his supporters, that impeachment would "nullify" the 2016 presidential election and the popular will — which is already a weak claim given that Trump never won the popular vote, and that impeaching Trump would still install Mike Pence as president. But the report more broadly rejects the entire claim that an election result immunizes a president from punishment for official misconduct.
