MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell said he considered bringing one of his pillows to federal court to rebut a claim made by a Dominion Voting Systems attorney during his deposition. Lindell is set to appear in Denver federal court this week as part of a defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion. The company alleges Lindell defamed it by promoting false claims that Dominion machines helped rig the 2020 presidential election against Donald Trump.
During an appearance on Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast over the weekend, Lindell recounted a previous exchange with Dominion’s legal team in which one of its attorneys allegedly called his pillows “lumpy.” “I told my lawyers, maybe I should bring him one inside,” Lindell told Bannon, who made a pitch for his listeners to buy Lindell’s products to fund the legal defense.
Lindell told Bannon when he floated bringing a pillow to trial, his attorney said, “Mike, let’s not go there.” The CEO and election denier said the trial, which begins Monday, is a rare instance of a defendant refusing to settle with Dominion. “This is the first trial — everyone else has taken deals and they’re afraid,” he told Bannon.
The lawsuit against Lindell and MyPillow was filed in 2021. Dominion is seeking more than $1.3 billion in damages, alleging Lindell used his platform to spread baseless election conspiracy theories, which he also used to boost MyPillow sales. The case is one of several filed by Dominion following the 2020 election, including a $787 million settlement reached with Fox News in 2023.
