Dershowitz on Greg "Ted Baxter" Kelly's Newsmax show:
“I Don’t Think They’re Going to Get Any Pillows Out of This” – Alan Dershowitz Defends Mike Lindell in Dominion’s $1.3 Billion Lawsuit Against Him (VIDEO)
By Jim Hoft Published February 23, 2021 at 9:14pm

Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz joined Greg Kelly on Newsmax TV on Tuesday night. Dershowitz was on to discuss the recent move by Democrats to ban conservative TV channels Newsmax, OAN and FOX News. Dershowitz also weighed in on Dominion Voting Systems and their lawsuit against Mike Lindell.

Alan Dershowitz: Whether Lindell was right or wrong he had the right to express his views and this is part of the public debate. And I don’t think unless they can demonstrate that with malice he deliberately, willfully, knowingly defamed them. I don’t think they’re going to get any pillows out of this.

Would Dominion need to prove malice for the unfair trade practices claim?

They can certainly prove the profit motive.

Of course, I don't know how much of his worth is tied up in his company, so he may not have the liquid assets. And frankly I'm fine with the lawsuit bankrupting him no matter his net worth. I'm really irritated that he's a Minnesota resident. Maybe, after he loses his business, he can move to Florida.
That's what I call a "chilly" reception! :D

here's another take on the lawsuits:
https://newrepublic.com/article/161469/ ... t-wing-lie
Lindell is one of multiple right-wing figures who have recently found themselves on the other end of a defamation lawsuit in recent weeks over this “Big Lie.” But what makes Lindell’s case interesting is how it doesn’t simply rest on that wrong. Dominion is suing the MyPillow CEO not just for lying about the election but for trying to monetize those lies, as well. Along the way, the beleaguered voting-machine company provides a useful window into how the right-wing media grift really operates.

Dominion’s lawsuits are clearly written to be read by a lay audience. Its 107-page complaint against Rudy Giuliani, which was filed a few weeks after the attack on the Capitol, doubles as a partial history of the postelection chaos. It weaves Giuliani’s incendiary claims about election fraud with how those claims resonated among Trump supporters—and how Giuliani sought to hawk various products along the way, including “gold coins, supplements, cigars, and protection from ‘cyberthieves.’” Taken together, the insurrection on January 6 feels almost inevitable, in hindsight, as Giuliani and others repeatedly warned their listeners that the nation was in peril and that American democracy had been stolen.

A week or two ago, I thought I saw his video on the MyPillow website. I can't find it now. Maybe the "Mike Shut Up" team (also known as the corporate attorneys) told him to take it down.

ETA: I may have been thinking the Lindell Foundation website, but I just realized that the link to the Lindell Foundation website is just a redirect to a website with just his name in the URL and nothing about a foundation even mentioned.

Having a private foundation (or family foundation) website redirect to a private person's website which covers a single subject that is not the mission of the foundation could be problematic (the foundation was setup for drug rehabilitation).

Mike Lindell On Dominion Lawsuit: What Are You Hiding?
OAN Newsroom :lol: UPDATED 9:22 AM PT – Friday, February 26, 2021

Mike Linndell said he’s not backing down from speaking out against voter fraud and is “putting everything on the line” to bring the truth to the American people. In an interview Tuesday, Lindell asserted he has “100 percent evidence” of malfeasance during the election by Dominion Voting Systems who has accused the MyPillow CEO of defamation.

“They sued my company, which had nothing to do with this and there’s 2,500 plus employees,” he stated. “It’s shameful what Dominion has done to our country, and go to the private sector level and attack my company.” However, Lindell said he will continue to fight despite being put in physical danger and having incurred massive financial losses. He called on Dominion to allow machine inspections and said as a business owner himself, he understands the need for transparency and would gladly open up his business for review if someone were to question the integrity of his product.

“So Dominion I ask you, and I’ve asked this, what are you hiding? I know what you’re hiding,” he stated. “They want to suppress me, cancel me out, get rid of Mike Lindell because this is what’s gonna take down that election and this is the hope that we have in this country.” Lindell added, Dominion’s lawsuit in a roundabout way is actually serving the American people as it provides him with legal grounds to release previously unseen evidence. He went on to stress electoral integrity should not be a partisan issue.

“This problem runs so deep and this cancel culture…it’s not just Dominion and not just Smartmatic, but look at the machine,” he contined. “They’re all part of this attack on our country.” Lindell said he plans to continue his work exposing electoral fraud and warned if the current system is not reformed “the USA as we know it will be gone.”

Watched it. Nothing new from MikePillow, more and more of the same. He's upset that they sued his company. He says he's lost $65M from big box stores pulling out, but he won't take them back after how they treated him. He leaves off the whole part about his sales being up overall due to vastly increased direct sales. Santilli has a whole theory and "proof" of the whole Venezula/Smartmatic/Dominion/etc. connection and is hot to send the docs to MikePillow's lawyer to end this thing once and for all. Yawn. It ended with a MyPillow ad for their sheets, get a special discount using code PETE.

Are sales actually up or is that just more of his bullshit? I think his response to the lawsuit was to claim sales were down due to stores that discontinued carrying the pillows.

Good point, but I would expect the fact that he has said it, whether true or not, will be used against him.

Meanwhile, the fallout from Lindell and others' lies continues.

The Stark County, Ohio (home of the city of Canton and the NFL Hall of Fame), Board of Elections is getting a lot of pressure to rethink their decision to purchase new voting machines from Dominion. Opponents of the purchase argue that the boards is choosing the vendor with a "cloud over them", completely ignoring the fact that the cloud is of their making and has no basis in reality.

I'm sure that this is happening all around the country. Local boards are rethinking and rescinding Dominion purchases and others are arbitrarily dropping Dominion from consideration.

It also occurs to me that counties that DO unfairly eliminate Dominion from consideration could be letting themselves in for a bunch of legal trouble, as well.

If Dominion were not allowed to bid on an RFP for voting machines, or if their low bid was rejected for another vendor's higher bid, then Dominion might have grounds to sue under state laws that require counties to purchase the lowest qualified bid. The county would have to show that Dominion machines were somehow defective or otherwise did not meet the requirements in the RFP. I don't think that the county lawyers could get away with "well, Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani and Mike Lindell said they were corrupt".

I work for Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) and, while my department does not have anything to do with buying voting machines, we do hand out large IT contracts. We have to be very careful when awarding a contract, especially if we did not select the lowest bid, that our reasons for rejecting the lowest bid are reasonable and objectively true. We've had non-winners contest contract awards before, and it can get very messy very quickly.

WATCH: Mike Lindell Shouts at Mediaite Editor, Trashes Fox News
By Colby Hall Mar 2nd, 2021, 10:39 am

Mike Lindell is not just play-acting as an unhinged conspiracy theorist insisting that the 2020 election was stolen, he’s like that in real life! Or so it appears in the video taken by Mediaite’s own Aidan McLaughlin, who caught up with the MyPillow CEO in the halls of CPAC just in time to get screamed at about stolen elections, Mediaite, and Fox News.

Anyone familiar with the unique political media world in which we find ourselves knows that Lindell has played a curiously pivotal role in it. He is a massive sponsor on all networks, in particular Fox News, and has long been currying the favor of former President Donald Trump by applying the baseless claim that President Joe Biden only won the general election through some sort of vote theft.

Lindell’s origin story is a fascinating one. He is a self-described reformed crack addict who found religion, founded his own company, and impossibly, became a central figure in the 2020 election. I will refrain from spoiling the details of the video embedded above, which was taken on Sunday after Lindell spent the afternoon cheerily greeting a horde of supporters and giving interviews to the likes of OAN and RSBN.

When asked for an interview with Mediaite, Lindell grew angry, and called our humble website “fake news.” He agreed to the interview, and turned it into a tirade that eventually grew a sizable crowd.A quick highlight from the interview: Lindell is very much amped. He is not a fan of Mediaite, nor Fox News, though he still advertises on the latter. He also welcomes the $1.3 billion lawsuit from voting technology company Dominion, which is suing him over his claims about the election.When reached for a statement on what it was like getting yelled out by Lindell, a shaken McLaughlin wiped away what appeared to be spittle spray from his face and declined to comment and then slowly crawled into a fetal position.

But I will say what needs to be said: Dude needs to lighten up?
