Twitter Users Can't Help But Notice Devin Nunes Doesn't Look Happy
Wondering just how devastating Ambassador Gordon Sondland’s testimony on Wednesday was to Donald Trump’s defenders in Congress?
Just look at the reaction of Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, as pointed out on Twitter by filmmaker Arlen Parsa.
Spoiler alert: It isn’t pretty.

Sondland said Wednesday that Trump gave him “express direction” to work with Rudy Giuliani, who was pressuring Ukraine to announce an investigation of former Vice President Joe Biden’s son.
Reacting to the footage of Nunes, one Twitter user took the paranormal possibility suggested by Parsa to its logical extreme.
yes the ghost of their careers that just died in front of them

Others took pleasure in Nunes’ pained reaction, but predicted things were only going to get weirder.
the look they gave each other when they broke the cameras first landed on them was telling. They know they are dead int he water. Question is how outrageous are they going to get in order to cover.

The "we're fucked" look on Nune's and GOP counsel's faces at break says it all.

Another person suggested Sondland’s testimony might be a turning point, but quickly thought better of the idea.
Imagine a world where damning information changed their opinions instead of continuing to undermine democracy. But I dream..

Finally, there was the Twitter user who offered the most appropriate response to Nunes.
Thoughts and prayers. 😂
