Devin Nunes’s Attorney: ‘How Do We Know [Devin Nunes’] Cow and Mom Aren’t in Henrico?’

.... As Law&Crime previously reported, the genesis of Friday’s hearing stemmed from a lawsuit Nunes filed in March against Twitter, Liz Mair, Mair Strategies, LLC, and Twitter accounts @DevinNunesMom and @DevinCow (Devin Nunes’ Cow). Nunes claims that Twitter discriminated against him and other conservative social media users by permitting them to be defamed by anonymous users and “shadow banning” their accounts.

The lawsuit specifically claims that the accounts @DevinNunesMom and @DevinCow attacked and disparaged Nunes with false claims, which harmed his re-election campaign. While @DevinCow and its fanbase are still clearly active, the account of @DevinNunesMom has since been suspended.

“How do we know [Devin Nunes’] cow and mom aren’t in Henrico? They won’t tell us,” Nunes’ attorney Steven Biss asked of Judge John Marshall during Friday’s preliminary arguments. ....

Nunes is seeking “compensatory damages and punitive damages in an amount not less than $250,000,000” for alleged “negligence, defamation per se, insulting words, and civil conspiracy.”

According to the Times-Dispatch, Judge Marshall said he would rule on whether or not the case will be permitted to proceed within the next two weeks.

“Nunes’s attorney likely made the suggestion because approximately 20 people–more than half of the public spectators who showed up to the courthouse–wore T-shirts adorned with cows and carried toy stuffed cows with them.” https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/devin-nuness-attorney-how-do-we-know-devin-nunes-cow-and-mom-arent-in-henrico/ … cc: @DevinCow

Henrico judge to determine if California Rep. Nunes' $250M lawsuit against Twitter can proceed
By C. SUAREZ ROJAS Richmond Times-Dispatch 21 hrs ago

In a Henrico County Circuit Court hearing on Friday, an attorney for Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., suggested that someone in the courtroom could be behind one of the anonymous Twitter accounts dedicated to smearing his client.

About 20 people, more than half of the audience at Friday’s hearing, wore T-shirts with cows, carried stuffed toy cows and signed a card addressed to “Devin Nunes’ Cow” as Judge John Marshall heard preliminary arguments in a lawsuit against Twitter, two anonymous accounts and a Republican strategist who is accused of coordinating a smear campaign against the California congressman.

2. What is pathetic is that his constituents re-elect him

and, worse, he hold a very powerful Congressional Chairmanship (House Intelligence Committee). Frightening!
