MyPillow founder and outspoken President Trump supporter Mike Lindell says the FBI engaged in a dramatic interaction with him as he was enjoying himself in his own state of Minnesota. This episode comes on the heels of a massive effort by Joe Biden’s Department of Justice to subpenoa known associates of the former president.
ZeroHedge reported on the developing story:
Prominent Trump supporter and 2020 election integrity skeptic Mike Lindell says he was stopped by the FBI Tuesday and had his cell phone seized.
While heading home from a hunting trip with a friend, Lindell said he was at a Hardees in Minnesota when “cars pulled up in front of us, to the side of us and behind us, and I said ‘they’re either bad guys or the FBI,'” he said. “Well, it turns out they were the FBI.”

Continuing on eponymous The Lindell Report, Lindell exposed the fraudulent reasons for the FBI’s harassment. He said: “I can’t even imagine that you can take someone’s phone because they want me to be a witness in the Tina Peters case. But I’m not a witness, they just want my phone.”

ZeroHedge continued its story by pointing out the obvious here, namely that the timing of this latest raid, in conjunction with the House’s corrupt, partisan January 6th Committee meeting at the end of the month, coincides neatly with early voting and newsmaking for the upcoming midterm elections.
Lindell is the latest Trump ally to receive a warrant or subpoena by the FBI. Last week, the Biden DOJ hit dozens of Trump aides and allies with subpoenas as part of their investigation into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 US election over claims of fraud that handed Joe Biden the White House, as well as the run up to the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot.
Interesting how the Biden DOJ waited more tha 18 months – right before midterms – to initiate legal action against Trumpworld. And Biden said he wouldn’t weaponize the Justice Department.
For the MyPillow CEO, his involvement with the FBI is just the latest measure taken by the Regime to intimiate and silence him for his vocal criticism of the handling of the 2020 election. Earlier this year, a local Minnetoa bank closed his accounts.
Other private companies have likewise undertaken concerted efforts to minimize the prominent Trump and freedom supporter. Wal-Mart and the now-bankrupt Bed Bath & Beyond both ceased selling his great products for no other reason than he holds and speaks to conservative positions.
Still, for everything Lindell has endured, he remains as upbeat and positive as ever. He continues speaking at Trump rallies, making media appearances, and selling his products. During Canada’s Freedom Convoy, he steadfastly supported truckers against obscene mandates by shipping thousands of pillows north – an effort that was even stymied by Canada’s oppressive Trudeau-led government.
