Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright delivered a scathing hit-and-run Twitter attack on Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) for the House Intelligence Committee memo he orchestrated slamming the FBI investigation of a one-time member of President Donald Trump s campaign.

The memo, released Friday, claimed that the FBI obtained a warrant to monitor Carter Page without informing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that the bureaus request was based on Trump opposition research gathered for the Democrats . House Intelligence Committee ranking member Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and other sources said the court was aware of the context of the information and the memo has been criticized as inaccurate and misleading.

Albright, who became the nations first-ever female secretary of state in the Clinton administration, is currently a professor at Georgetown University . Based on her teaching principles to those aiming for jobs in the government, Albright said shed have to give Nunes an F for his failure to be compelling, accurate and unbiased. She quipped that she hoped voters will do the same in November.

Nunes has become the man of the hour on Twitter, most notably for being the brunt of an overwhelming number of #YoMemo and #YoMemo Jokes that take jabs at the weak and so dumb dud memo.
