MyPillow Guy Mike Lindell Pulling All Ads from Fox News


MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell says he will be pulling all his ads from Fox News, after Fox declined to run a commercial linked to his efforts to promote claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 presidential election.  MyPillow is considered among Fox News’ major advertisers, spending nearly $50 million on ads there last year alone. 

Good grief, you mean Mike Lindell is back in the news again?  Apparently, Lindell’s “traveling shitshow” never sleeps.  Maybe one of his pillows might help with that?  Now, I’m certainly no legal analyst, but it sure sounds a lot like Fox may just be trying to avoid getting into one of those nasty MyLawsuits.


That said, it sure seems like poor Fox News has been losing advertisers faster than Red State meth users are losing their teeth.  Hell, after MyPillow pulls all their ads, about the only sponsors Fox will have left - will be products like Preparation H, Life Alert, home catheter delivery, and erectile dysfunction ads. 


Now, just like Mike Lindell, I’d sure hate to spread unsubstantiated conspiracy theories around, but if I were a card-carrying QAnon member, I think I’d look into whether the untimely death of ultra-conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, may have been the result of being smothered to death - by one of Mike’s pillows.    


Of course, just like all of Mike’s election fraud allegations, there’s absolutely no evidence whatsoever that anything like that ever occurred, but what harm would it be to look into it anyway?  Which makes me wonder, is it just me, or does it seem like Mike Lindell was doing far less damage back in the good old days - when he was just a crackhead, and not a millionaire?

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...

Elon Musk Calls for the Prosecution of Anthony Fauci

Over the weekend, Elon Musk took to his Twitter account to call for the prosecution of infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, endorsing a convoluted, right-wing conspiracy theory that claims Dr. Fauci financed the COVID-19 pandemic.   Musk then proceeded to mock transgender people by adding “My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci.” Gee, the “world’s richest right-wing troll” said what?  Now, I realize it's a really low bar, but I think we’ve finally found someone who actually knows less about pronouns - than Herschel Walker.   Not to be critical, but a good sign you may have a wee bit too much money on your hands, is when you blow 44 billion dollars, just to call people names. Oh sure, I’m positive Elon Musk, like any right-wing crusader, gets a real kick out of using his Twitter to “Own the Libs.”  OK, I get that, but just who does he suppose is actually buying his friggin' cars, anyway?   I’m pretty sure it isn’t Trump’s toothless, MAGA half-wits who are fillin...
