"MyPillow Guy" Lindell to Counter-Sue Dominion and Smartmatic

My apologies if this was already posted today, I did a search for Lindell and came up with nothin'.

SOURCE -----> https://www.mediaite.com/news/watch-mike-lindell-has-sudden-epiphany-and-says-he-will-sue-dominion-and-smartmatic/

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell pledged on Saturday to take legal action against voting technology companies Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic if they don’t agree to meet with him about his Absolute Proof documentary and voting machine conspiracy theories.

“I just decided, I got an epiphany, if Dominion doesn’t agree to meet, I am going to spend all day today finding out how I can sue them and I will go after them,” Lindell said, on Steve Bannon’s podcast. “We got to get the truth out. And when I go after people in a lawsuit, it’s not for money, I don’t care about the money, it’s to bring out the truth.”


So he just wants them to validate his laughed-off-YouTube video with attention, and if they won't cooperate he'll sue them for...what? Emotional abandonment?

(two enormous caveats, I acknowledge) then he and his lawyers can circle-jerk himself into bankruptcy and I don't care (very much).

Anyone who wants to ruin themselves with legal/court nonsense should do so as quickly as possible to spare the rest of us unnecessary headache duration. I hope his lawyers charge him a million bucks an hour. Let's get this clown show over with.

Apparently, he must be back on crack. No rational individual says " I am going to spend all day today finding out how I can sue them and I will go after them,”....

Yeah, and I'm going to spend ALL DAY thinking of what I want for dinner.....

... “Well, I think we are going down a communist path; socialism is coming in here, everyone can look at what happened in Nazi Germany,” Lindell said. “It’s happening so fast; when I see and experiencing the cancellation of people, canceling out people’s jobs, they don’t exist.”

“Now it’s this ‘One World Order,’ this stuff is in Revelations, you know that’s what I was talking about, and you combine that with this vaccine, that’s ‘mark of the beast’ stuff,” he added. “I mean, this is horrible, keeping us indoors.”

The vaccine comparison comes on the heels of Lindell Thursday night saying the “end times” are near if his .. documentary failed to catch on, which ended up .. being compared to an “unhinged house party” ...

TWO WHOLE HOURS !!! I can't even imagine how the flimsy so-called "proof" that the election was fraudulent could made to fill 2 entire hours. I was sort of tempted to try to find this somewhere and watch it, but now that I know the running time, there's no way. 2 full hours of my time is way too much to invest in just to sate my curiosity.

I see the failure of the American educational system and I despair for our democracy. Democracy depends on an informed and thoughtful citizenry.

One America News Network .. might have just won itself a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit.

... the .. network aired a pseudo-documentary made by .. MyPillow Guy .. that pushed the not-dead-yet false accusation that a diabolical cabal stole the election from Trump ... OAN broadcast the program as an ad ... and attached the mother-of-all disclaimers to it ...

... But OAN did note that the 2020 election results “remain disputed and questioned by millions of Americans” ...

... Tom Clare, the lawyer for Dominion, has recently hinted that the firm is not done filing lawsuits. He has publicly said that Dominion will probably bring cases against other media companies and personalities. The company has sent letters demanding the preservation of records to OAN, Newsmax, the Epoch Times, and several right-wing media personalities, including Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Maria Bartiromo, and Greg Kelly....

... “It’s safe to say OAN is on our list—especially after this debacle,” Clare added ...
