Devin Nunes' media site down after reported 'attack' on server
By Brett Samuels - 02/11/18 04:32 PM EST
An online media outlet funded by Rep. Devin Nunes’ (R-Calif.) campaign appeared to be down on Sunday afternoon after what the site called “heavy traffic and an attack on our servers.â€
“The California Republican,†the name of the site, posted on its Facebook page that those trying to reach the site may encounter an error message.
As of late Sunday afternoon, the link to the site’s home page redirects back to the outlet’s Facebook page, and links to articles redirect to a broken Facebook link.
Politico reported earlier Sunday that the Nunes campaign has paid nearly $8,000 to a Fresno-area communications consultant since last July for the site. "The California Republican" is listed as a "Media/News" Company."
Anthony Ratekin, Nunes’ chief of staff, declined to comment to Politico about the site.
