  • CBS journalist Robert Costa asked about a White House meeting in 2021.

  • Costa was not told where the martial law was mentioned in the election documents.

  • The CEO of MyPillow has been a supporter of Trump.

The CEO of MyPillow yelled at the CBS News correspondent Robert Costa after he questioned the details of documents that were seen at the White House regarding the 2020 presidential election.

The attorneys who drafted the election-related documents were pressed over by Costa at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

Costa tried to follow up on a story that was published in The New York Times last year about the meeting between Donald Trump and Monica Lewinsky at the White House.

Sidney Powell, the election conspiracy theorist who has continued to allege voter fraud in the 2020 contest despite a lack of evidence, was also mentioned in the article.

Costa tried to find out the names of the lawyers who drafted the papers, but they were not known.

When Costa asked who drafted the papers, he replied: "That's not your business." A group of lawyers did. I don't read them.

There are a number of conspiracy theories about the voting systems.

The businessman said that he never discussed martial law with Trump, and that Costa was told to go back to watching rotten news.

Others jumped into the mix after Lindell started yelling at Costa and deriding him as a traitor.

"You're a traitor!" said Lindell.

One of Trump's most ardent supporters continues to travel the country to speak with activists and push the false allegations of voter fraud that the former president still perpetuates among the Republican faithful.
