The congressional memo written by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes has been a subject of hot debate all week. The memo paints a picture of the FBI investigation against Donald Trump as part of a liberal conspiracy, laying the groundwork for Congress to refuse to impeach President Donald Trump when the findings of Special Counsel Robert Muller are eventually released. But despite the topic being discussed across the spectrum of news and political analysis, a lot of people were wondering: what does Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn have to say about this?

Finally, Gunn has taken to Twitter to reveal his take on the controversial memo. Read Gunn's expert analysis below:

And of course the GOP KNOWS the memo is bullshit cherry-picking that only bolsters Mueller's case. But it's a thing to point to & say, "This proves it's rigged!" Their base is already so lost in the Upside-Down they're all like, "Yeah, we did it! Hooray!"

It's Dr. Strangelove 2018. The memo's just an excuse for the GOP to ignore Trump's potential crimes & move forward with their agenda. Any time anyone calls them on it, they can just say, "Hey! The memo! Back off!" And they'll keep doing it until folks forget what BS the memo was.

The memo means nothing, or worse than nothing, by itself. But the base holds it to their hearts like a precious pendant from a lover, so it has meaning to them, which is what the GOP was counting on.

Now that Gunn has finally weighed in, it will be interesting to see how Washington responds. Maybe they will release a memo about James Gunn. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is set for release sometime in 2020.
