Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) plans to sue the Daily Beast and CNN after the outlets published articles about him this week.

“These demonstrably false and scandalous stories published by the Daily Beast and CNN are the perfect example of defamation and reckless disregard for the truth,” Nunes told Breitbart late Nov. 22 shortly after the CNN story was published.
