Apparently the kindly Nunes family of California dairy farmers are actually Iowa dairy farmers, something that Nunes and his whole family kinda keep out of the public eye.

I was going to put this into the mid-term elections thread but it's got so much meat to it that it could take over that thread. It's a lengthy article but just the salient points:
> Nunes' family moved the dairy farm over a decade ago. One cousin or uncle still has a place in CA but the family operation is in Iowa.
> Nothing really wrong with that but the secrecy, which originally sounded to me like mere optics, was puzzling enough that the reporter went into a lengthy investigation.
> The family farm is, ironically, in Steve King's district.
> Steve King's district, astonishingly, thrives on undocumented alien workers! (Including, apparently, the Nunes family spread!)
There's a lot more to the article, which seems very fair in my admittedly biased view.
