Mike Lindell Makes Bats**t Claim About Fox News' Role In 2020 Election

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell on Thursday accused Fox News of playing a “big part” in the mass 2020 voter fraud that he claims was Donald Trump’s downfall in the election. “Smartmatic sued Fox News on Feb. 4 of 2021,” Lindell continued in a nod to another voting technology company suing Fox for defamation. Lindell claimed he subpoenaed Fox for evidence “and they won’t give us anything.” “But Mike, Mike, they’re not gonna produce evidence of the nonexistence of the election being rigged,” Cuomo replied. “And they did more than anybody else did to fuel the speculation, which is how they got jammed up with Dominion.” Last week, Lindell was ordered to pay $5 million to man who debunked his theory about Chinese interference in the 2020 election in the bedding mogul’s 2021 “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge.
