Interestingly, but not surprisingly, a judge told Devon Nunes his defamation lawsuit against an Esquire writer is bunk.

U.S. District Judge C.J. Williams, a Trump appointee, ruled that Nunes had neither shown he had been harmed by the article nor that Lizza's reporting on NuStar's heavy reliance on undocumented immigrants was false. In fact, Williams wrote in his 101-page opinion, "the assertion that NuStar knowingly used undocumented labor is substantially, objectively true."

Nunes must have had some crappy attorney's to let him file the lawsuit, or did the CEO of Truth Social lie to his attorneys about illegally hiring undocumented aliens, hoping the substantial, objective Truth wouldn't come out.

Since the Nunes farm did knowingly hire undocuments workers, the defamation claim is bunk; the malice charge also goes down the drain.

I wonder if there's any financial downside to Nunes; the defense had atty fees; counter lawsuit?
