Despite months of promising to file a lawsuit that would pull down the 2020 presidential election results and restore Donald Trump to the White House, pillow-monger Mike Lindell has instead turned his election-fraud-athon into a four-day sales promotion.
The sales for pillows and sheets were rattling off Friday morning as Lindell showed them to the group. That is the lowest price in history.
He went on to explain that his sheets were made overseas from Egyptian cotton and that he could save up to 34% on over 100 products.
We are putting stuff on sale for Black Friday that is over the top.
In the summer, he claimed that he was coordinating a lawsuit among a number of state attorneys general, as many as 30, to be filed at 9 a.m. He would spend the long Thanksgiving weekend explaining the suit to the public on a free online seminar.
The show featured the same lies about the election that Lindell has been spreading for a year and prominently featured his pillow ads.
The ad promised the best gifts ever for the best prices.
Brannon Houze explained the purpose of the promo code it was giving, which was to know who was watching the 96-hour Thanks-A-damn.
Despite saying that he would, he did not respond to questions about his failure to file the suit and the airing of advertising during his marathon webcast.
In the last few days, Lindell has claimed that the attorneys general who were going to sign on to his suit were pressured out of doing so by the RNC.
He said Thursday that Ronna McDaniel should resign.
An RNC spokesman said that there was no correlation between the failure to get attorneys general to sign on to the Supreme Court complaint and the fact that McDaniel had nothing to do with it. As of late Friday, McDaniel had not resigned.
On Friday, he appeared on a Trump adviser's show where he was asked "Where do we stand with these AGs?"
Only one attorney general, Republican Steve Marshall of Alabama, refused to be involved in the lawsuit, and that's what Lindell said. He told Bannon that most of them wanted to get together after Thanksgiving.
President Donald Trump met with the founder of MyPillow at the White House. As an unofficial adviser to Trump, Lindell has continued to amplify his lies about the election. The picture was taken by Saul LOEB/AFP.
The Supreme Court would restore Trump by the end of 2021, as a result of his lawsuit, after initially promising to do so in August.
The House select committee is investigating the assault on the Capitol that Trump incited in order to stay in power despite losing the 2020 election by 7 million votes. The committee to the National Archives sent a letter to the National Archives requesting all Trump White House documents from April 2020 to January 2021.
China hacked ballots in every single state in order to flip votes between Trump and Biden.
Donald Trump won the election by a large amount of votes.
Voting machine makers have sued pro-Trump media outlets for defamation. The suits have kept him off of the media outlets, so he only has his own website and a podcast.
The only one who says "Dominion" anymore is me.
His relationship with Trump is still strong. Trump sat down to tape a half-hour interview with Lindell earlier this month, in which the two praised each other while repeating Trump's false claims about the election. Trump said that he had done some great things.
Trump became the first president in more than 200 years to refuse to give up power peacefully to his successor.
He began lying in the predawn hours of Nov. 4 that he had actually won the contest, and that his victory was being stolen. There were many failed lawsuits challenging the results in a few states.
The Insurrection Act or declaring martial law were discussed by Trump and his advisers as a way to retain power after the election.
After the Electoral College voted in favor of Biden, Trump turned to a last-ditch scheme to force his own vice president to cancel the votes of millions of voters.
The tens of thousands of people who showed up to march on the Capitol were told by Trump to do what he wanted. When you catch a fraud, you can go by different rules.
The mob of supporters tried to storm the building. They chanted "Hang Mike Pence" after the vice president refused to comply with Trump's demands.
A police officer died after being attacked during the insurrection, and four other people took their own lives in the days and weeks that followed. One of the rioters was shot and killed as she climbed through a broken window into an anteroom containing House members who were still evacuated.
Even though the House impeached Trump for inciting the attack, all but seven Senate Republicans, led by McConnell, chose not to convict him.
The rioter who was shot and the hundreds of others who have been arrested are being portrayed as martyrs by Trump and his allies. Trump is using his Save America committee's money to spread the same lies that led to the violence of January 6.
