MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has been pushing all sorts of conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, including nonsense about voting machines.
And according to Mediaiate, Lindell tried to reiterate some of those claims in a Newsmax appearance Tuesday talking about his Twitter ban.
Newsmax recently aired a fact-check of claims about Dominion and Smartmatic — given legal threats from both companies to a variety of individuals and media outlets — and so it was perhaps no surprise that anchor Bob Sellers frantically jumped in to push back.
Heather Childers started the interview by asking about Lindell’s Twitter, and the first sentence out of the MyPillow CEO’s mouth was to bring up baseless claims about “Dominion machines.”
As Lindell kept going, Sellers quickly jumped in to say, “Mike, you’re talking about machines. We at Newsmax have not been able to verify any of those kinds of allegations.”
Lindell started to shout back as Sellers told viewers, “There’s nothing substantive that we’ve seen.”
He went on to read a statement from the network accepting the results of the 2020 election, before trying to get Lindell back on the topic of Twitter and cancel culture.
Lindell returned to Newsmax later with Rob Schmitt Tonight to discuss 'cancel culture' and the state of his company and its loyal customers
