Devin Nunes Named To Lead Intel Advisory Board

NBC News reports:

President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday named Devin Nunes, the CEO of Trump’s TruthSocial platform, as chairman of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board.

“I am pleased to announce that I will appoint TruthSocial CEO Devin Nunes as Chairman of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board, which consists of distinguished citizens from outside of the Federal Government,” Trump announced on TruthSocial.

Nunes’ appointment is the latest in a line of administration picks with ties to Trump’s media company. Linda McMahon, Trump’s pick for the Department of Education, and Kash Patel, his pick for FBI director, both sit on the company’s board of directors.

Read the full article. Nunes is perhaps best known here for his many failed lawsuits, including one against an online cow. Nunes also sued Esquire for reporting on the many undocumented migrants allegedly working at his family’s Iowa farm. That lawsuit was tossed out by a Trump judge last year.

Devin Nunes’s family farm is hiding a politically explosive secret—and when @RyanLizza went to Iowa to investigate, things got a little strange https://t.co/k5NIsxg9HZ pic.twitter.com/1sNaLLVy8n

Devin Nunes’ family is quietly running a dairy farm reliant on undocumented immigrant labor — and working very hard to keep it a secret.

Oh, and it’s located right in the heart of notorious anti-immigrant Rep. Steve King’s district in Iowa.https://t.co/TUHAHakLTY
