Devin Nunes, the chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and author of the memo denigrating the FBI has been accused of exhibiting the worst kind of partisanship and political posturing at the expense of democratic institutions.

But not everyone is critical, with some calling him a true patriot, most notably Russian President Vladimir Putin

“David Nunes is performing a wonderful service for the Country.”

Putin commended Nunes on putting national duty before all else.

“This great nation is indebted to you for your unwavering devotion to its interests.”

He promised to recognize Nunes as soon as possible with the Order for Merit to the Fatherland.

“You’ll be first in line after all the other patriots in the White House have got theirs, so expect a long wait.”
