Devin Nunes has his own online propaganda platform paid for with campaign donations.

 Courtesy of CNN:

The campaign committee for House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes has been funding a website billed as a local news outlet. 

The site, CARepublican.com, features headlines ranging from national politics stories to state and local matters and college football. Many of the posts link out to conservative sites like National Review and The Federalist, and the Facebook page for the site labels it a media/news company that is focused on "delivering the best of US, California, and Central Valley news, sports, and analysis." 

The site says it is paid for by Nunes' campaign committee, and the congressman has shared some CARepublican posts on his Facebook page. 

Campaign money? I'm surprised it is not simply funded by the Russians, since Nunes is clearly doing their dirty work for them.

Well if you were looking for some fake news, I think we have narrowed the search a little.

Though actually it might be too late.

Courtesy of The Hill: 

An online media outlet funded by Rep. Devin Nunes’s (R-Calif.) campaign appeared to be down Sunday afternoon after what the site called “heavy traffic and an attack on our servers.” 

“The California Republican,” the name of the site, posted on its Facebook page that those trying to reach the site may encounter an error message. 

As of late Sunday afternoon, the link to the site’s home page redirects back to the outlet’s Facebook page, and links to articles redirect to a broken Facebook link. 

Politico reported earlier Sunday that the Nunes campaign has paid nearly $8,000 to a Fresno-area communications consultant since July for the site. "The California Republican" is listed as a "Media/News Company" on Facebook.

Well that must be terribly inconvenient.

Now how will all the mouth breathers get their phony news and conspiracy theories?

Oh wait, I guess Fox News still exists doesn't it?

    So the Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee runs a fake news/propaganda site. These people are not Americans and they don't have the interests of pretty much all of us in mind. More
    power and more money for these wannabe oligarchs is all it's about.

    Putin on Monday told Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas that American President Donald Trump had authorized the Russian leader to speak on his behalf.

  7. OFF-TOPIC: Is Bristol back in Wasilla, or, Sarah in Austin? Judging by Tripp's size, this is a recent photo. And don't try to tell me those are home-made backed goods -- store-bought, all of them.

      1:38. You know we dislike you intensely yet you come on this site to glorify you. No one cares, really.

    3. The plot is starting to unwind.

      On Bristol's Instagram page with the photo of Sarah, Tripp, a cake, and cupcakes is an entry from "suelynnearthquake."

      That screen name comes back to this:
      https://www.instagram.com/p/BfAT0qVBaoT/?taken-by=suelynnearthquake

      The photo was posted two days ago and, according to comments on "suelynnearthquake's" page, the pic was made in Texas. The background -- mirrors, tables, wine bottles -- looks like a restaurant.

      So -- looks as though Sarah is in Texas and "suelynearthquake" made the cake and cupcakes.

      Question now is: Where is Duhkota on his mother-in-law's birthday? His Instagram page has only pics of himself, not wearing a wedding ring.

      Is Sarah in Texas to get Bristol through the divorce?

    So any tom, dick and racist can be president. That's the message I am getting. You don't have to be smart. In fact the dumber you are the more chance you have to ascend to the White House as president. George Bush taught us that.
    Now Trump who rules from the crapper and his wife beaters are in charge. Oh, where, oh where do we go from here?
