MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Says He Has ‘No Money Left’ To Pay Lawyers In Election Lawsuits

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Says He Has ‘No Money Left’ To Pay Lawyers In Election Lawsuits

Share to FacebookShare to TwitterShare to LinkedinTopline MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Thursday admitted he and his company have no money to pay the lawyers representing him in the 2020 election-related defamation cases after they notified federal judges that Lindell owed them millions of dollars in legal fees.

My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell is interviewed during a campaign rally at Sioux Gateway Airport.

Getty Images Key Facts Appearing on Steve Bannon’s War Room, Lindell said he was aware that “all the lawyers” representing him in the defamation suits filed by voting machine companies Dominion and Smartmatic made a filing to “drop us as our attorneys.”

The MyPillow CEO said the “attacks” on his company—including American Express’ decision to slash its credit line—means “there’s no money left over to pay” the lawyers.

When asked by Bannon if he would settle with Dominion and Smartmatic, Lindell said he would “never settle anything” and “never stop fighting no matter” as he reiterated baseless conspiracy theories about the companies’ voting machines.

When Bannon noted that even the Murdoch family and Fox News had settled, the MyPillow CEO suggested they were likely “in on it” and “they can come after me too, I don’t care.”

Lindell then went on a rant about Fox News not talking about “any election platforms” and being silent on “machines or vaccines,” adding: “They’re like a weather channel…where you can’t report hurricanes or tornadoes.”

News Peg Earlier Thursday, Lindell’s lawyers from Parker Daniels Kibort in Minnesota and Lewin and Lewin in Washington filed a motion informing federal judges that their client owes them millions of dollars in legal fees. One of the attorneys representing the MyPillow CEO said he had stopped paying invoices on time this year. Parker Daniels Kibort said continuing to represent Lindell in this situation could threaten the survival of their business. Lindell told Forbes he did not blame the lawyers for trying to pull out saying “they have families and responsibilities.” Lindell is facing two defamation lawsuits—from Dominion and Smartmatic—for fanning baseless conspiracy theories about the voting machines altering the results of the 2020 election.

Crucial Quote Lindell also railed at the media, after Bannon noted they would “spin this” negatively and said they would talk about “the fall of Mike Lindell. We knew he’d go down…it’s funny how they protect all of these machine companies. They protect the evil.”
