MyPillow CEO and MAGA election litigator Mike Lindell was scorched by attorneys representing Dominion Voting Systems, who filed a new court motion on Monday ridiculing the pillow salesman as a cowardly “schoolyard bully” who is trying to avoid the consequences of his actions.
Lawyers for the voting system firm asked the court to allow them to proceed with their billion-dollar defamation lawsuit against Lindell for accusing the election-technology company of helping Joe Biden steal the 2020 presidential from Donald Trump.
Dominion’s lawyers argued that the “rule of law” is at stake if their suit is not allowed to proceed. They also compared Lindell to a “schoolyard bully” who can’t take a punch.
“Lindell and MyPillow are bullies who, after attacking their victim in the schoolyard, claim that the victim is forbidden from going to the nurse to dress his wounds, or to the principal’s office to have them held accountable,” they wrote according to Business Insider.
From the report:
Dominion sued Lindell and MyPillow in February of last year, claiming $1.3 billion in damages and alleging they defamed the election technology company by pushing lies about its role in the 2020 election. It’s part of a spate of lawsuits Dominion filed against election conspiracy theorists and media entities it says platformed them.
Lindell filed a counterclaim in December, alleging Dominion was engaged in an illegal conspiracy to punish him through litigation, and rehashing falsehoods claiming the company manipulated election results so that then-President Donald Trump would lose the 2020 election.
