Twitter and Liz Mair, a political strategist, who have been sued by Rep. Devin Nunes, have asked for the lawsuit to be dismissed because the California Republican filed the lawsuit in Virginia instead of California.

They argue since Nunes has a Twitter account, he consented to the user agreement that states lawsuits can only be filed against them in San Francisco. They said because of the Virginia lawsuit, he has violated the agreement.
