MyPillow founder Mike Lindell blasted “frivolous” and “evil” lawyers during a heated deposition surrounding a defamation lawsuit from a Dominion Voting Systems employee.
In one particular exchange from the March deposition, Lindell went ballistic after the lawyer questioned him about customers calling customer service over “lumpy pillows.”
“No, they’re not lumpy pillows, that’s not what they call on,” Lindell said. “When you say lumpy pillows, now you’re an a***hole, you got that? You’re an a**hole is what you are!”

“That’s what you are,” Lindell told the attorney. “Lumpy pillows, kiss my a**! Put that in your book…Nobody calls because of a lumpy pillow.”
Lindell repeatedly blasted the attorneys and called the basis of the defamation claim into question.
“You’re just a lawyer, you’re an ambulance-chasing lawyer, so don’t start with me. I got all day,” Lindell said. “I’ll take as much time as you want, so let’s go. You’re not my boss, you’re just a lawyer, frivolous lawyer.”
I keep tabs on a lot of the lawsuits filed after the 2020 election. Yesterday, I noticed a new filing in former Dominion exec Eric Coomer's defamation suit against MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.

“This is a frivolous case and if you’re representing this guy and you’ve read this case, you are a disgusting lawyer, period,” he said. “I can’t believe anybody would take this. This is absolutely disgusting, it’s a disgrace to our country, it’s a disgrace to you.”

“Rotten, horrible lawyers like you and the media saying, ‘Oh Mike Lindell is trying to save this country just to make money. I have lost everything I’ve had so far, you got it?” he shouted. “You’re an evil, evil man. There, that’s on the record. Very evil.”
According to the lawsuit filed in May 2022 by Dominion employee Eric Coomer, Lindell claimed Coomer is “a traitor to the United States” due to his work with Dominion.
In a subsequent court filing, Coomer’s lawyers complained Lindell was “vulgar, threatening, loud, disrespectful to Dr. Coomer’s counsel and the Court, evasive, and largely non-responsive to questioning.”
