Source: The Hill
A website titled after a controversial House Intelligence Committee memo written by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) now redirects to the homepage for his Democratic challenger's campaign.
It was not immediately clear who created the redirect to Democrat Andrew Janz's campaign website. The redirect was first noticed Tuesday afternoon. The nunesmemo.com domain name was purchased privately on Jan. 20.
Janz denied being behind the redirect in a comment to The Hill, but said he was "pleasantly surprised" by it.
"I'm proud to be running a campaign that's inspiring people across the nation. I was pleasantly surprised to see www.nunesmemo.com redirect to my site. Devin Nunes might have Russian bots doing his bidding on Twitter but you can't beat good old-fashioned people power," Janz said.

How can a memo be so powerful? How is this memo validated as factual?

but the RW noise machine, with an assist from the Russian government is whipping the typical crazies into a frenzy. They are sure it's going to bring down the mythical deep state once and for all.
Most of them should be medicated.
