"Truth is a defense," snaps the California Democratic congressman.
Rep. Ted Lieu on Friday offered a terse, gutsy response to a threatened lawsuit from Rep. Devin Nunes : “Take your letter and shove it.” Lieu posted the first page of a letter from an attorney for Nunes threatening a lawsuit — and his own letter back.
The lawsuit threat is particularly ironic now that newly released records have revealed extensive links between Nunes aide Derek Harvey and Parnas. The House report on Trump’s impeachment last month also revealed phone logs of several calls between Nunes and Parnas. Lieu warned that “truth is a defense” and then snapped: “I welcome any lawsuit from your client and look forward to taking discovery of Congressman Nunes. Or, you can take your letter and shove it.”Attached is the first page of a five page letter in which the lawyer for @DevinNunes threatens that Rep Nunes will sue me.Nunes has launched a startling number of lawsuits; it’s not clear if any of them have been successful.
