MyPillow's Mike Lindell sues Dominion Voting Systems for $1.6 billion

2021-04-20

[WASHINGTONTIMES] Mike Lindell, a conservative activist and the owner of MyPillow, announced Monday that his company has sued Dominion Voting Systems for $1.6 billion, saying the company has engaged in cancel culture and impeded his First Amendment rights.

"MyPillow just sued Dominion for $1.6 billion. This is all about the First Amendment rights to free speech, what they have done to our country," Mr. Lindell said during a livestream on the Right Side Broadcasting Network.

"This isn’t about the money. This is about our First Amendment," he said.

Mr. Lindell was joined by lawyer Alan Dershowitz, who said Dominion has acted as the government due to the power the feds extended to the voting company, but now Dominion is suppressing the viewpoints of critics.

"We don’t suppress. We don’t censor, but that is what Dominion is trying to do on behalf of the government," said Mr. Dershowitz, who is advising Mr. Lindell and his legal team. "We are going to be demanding access to their machines, to their codes."

Stephen Shackelford, a partner at Susman Godfrey LLP serving as Dominion’s legal counsel, said the lawsuit had no merit.

"This is a meritless retaliatory lawsuit, filed by MyPillow to try to distract from the harm it caused to Dominion," he said.

The announcement comes after Dominion sued Mr. Lindell for $1.3 billion earlier this year, saying he defamed Dominion Voting Systems by alleging the company rigged the 2020 presidential election in favor of President Joe Biden

...... 46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing......

#2 Apparently wikileaks has something with a Dominian executive saying they wanted to help Democrats or something like that. If so I'm sure that will come out in Mike's suit and it'll be glorious.
