My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell cut off during CPAC interview
By: Natalie Musumeci (New York Post)
My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell was cut off during an interview at the Conservative Political Action Conference Sunday after he hurled wild conspiracy theories about COVID-19 and the vaccines for the virus.
Lindell was stopped in the middle of his interview with host Liz Willis of the conservative YouTube channel Right Side Broadcasting Network when he claimed that people who did not have the coronavirus were being diagnosed with it.
"You stub your toe, and they say, 'Oh you've got COVID.' Let's pile on, you know," Lindell told Willis — who interrupted him to quickly shut the conversation down.
"We do have to be super careful. I hate to do it. You know I love you, but due to YouTube's guidelines, we will get our whole platform shut down if we talk about vaccines," she interjected.
The comment was the final straw after Lindell spent much of the 17-minute interview railing about the jabs.
The CEO earlier took aim at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, claiming the leader is "making the whole country" get a shot — before whining that other countries would soon follow suit.
"Right now with the vaccine over there, they're making the whole country take it so you can't go in shopping malls, you wouldn't be able to get a job, and if this happens, it's the start for the world — the worst thing that could happen to this world," Lindell said.
The My Pillow founder continued, "This is our bodies, this is 'mark of the beast' stuff. And I don't care. I'll just put right out there. This is Revelations."
Some of the comments made by Lindell — a supporter of former President Donald Trump — were also edited out of the interview by Right Side Broadcasting Network on its YouTube channel, but an unedited version was available on the website Rumble.
Lindell's COVID conspiracies come after he repeatedly spread baseless claims about fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
Dominion Voting Systems recently filed a more than $1.3 billion lawsuit against the businessman, accusing him of defamation by falsely accusing the voting machine company of "stealing millions of votes" in the election.

So now getting the vaccine is mark of the beast stuff?
Come on now, I know there has to be republicans that are getting tired of all the crazy.
But he did not mention Dominion voting systems. Maybe he can learn....
Yep we are...thousands, if not millions, of us.
FOX should refuse to run his never ending ads.
Simple, Just cancel him.
lol
Or do like I've always done with this con-man's overpriced merchant peddler's crap, ignore him.
He and Goya should get together and they could manufacture the bean pillow.
It's pretty bad when the people driving the crazy train throw ya off.
What is he going on about? Where does he get this stuff? The vaccine is some kind of satanic end-times thing? How do you make that connection?
OK, well it's the book of "Revelation." No "s." Maybe read the Bible a little closer.
I don't think Lindell and the Bible even have a passing acquaintance. He found Jesus when he got off the drugs or maybe he was forced to find Jesus to get off the drugs
I wonder if any of the MAGA types here agree with Lindell. If one is ... (insert appropriate adjective) ... enough to believe Trump legitimately won the election then I would think them capable of believing pretty much anything.
OOOO.....that Mark of the Beast and talking about Israel ain't gonna sit well with Netanyahu....
