The FBI and Department of Justice are being sued by the CEO of MyPillow for violating his constitutional rights when they seized his phone outside a fast food joint.

The attorney general and the FBI director were listed as defendants in the lawsuit.

The FBI is accused of violating his "First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment" rights in a lawsuit. He wants his cell phone back and that the FBI or DOJ don't release information from his phone.

The lawsuit gives a detailed account of Lindell's side of the incident, in which he describes driving home at 4 a.m. after he and a friend went duck hunting. The group was boxed in by FBI officers at a fast food joint in the late morning.

The FBI must have been watching him because he didn't make his location public.

As FBI officers approached their vehicle, Lindell began to fear for his and his friend's lives. According to the filing, there was a conversation about "Dominion Voting Systems" between Lindell and the officers. The phone was taken by the officers.

The phone seizure was connected to an investigation into Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who is accused of facilitating an election-data leak.

Peters was accused of taking a private plane ride from the business owner. He told Insider that he had been helping to pay off Peters' legal fees, with some funds coming from his "personal money."

The MyPillow CEO had been subjected to "unlawful detention" and the agencies had been "unreasonable" when they executed the search and seizure warrant, according to the filing.

The DOJ had no comment on the matter, according to a representative from the agency.

In an interview with Insider on Tuesday, he said he was suing over a violation of his rights.

It's terrible." He told Insider that he can't believe they did that to his friend.

If the FBI approached him at night, he would have bashed his way through their cars with his truck.

I would have thought they were bad people. He said there was no sign that they were law enforcement, the way they surrounded him.

He maintained that he wouldn't mind being taken into custody by the FBI.

If they bring me in, I don't care if I'm arrested or anything. I can use the word out to get rid of the machines. I would do anything it took.
