Staunch Trump ally and CEO of MyPillow, Mike Lindell, has been
permanently banned from the social media platform Twitter for what
that company’s spokesperson said were Lindell’s “repeated
violations” of the social media company’s civic integrity
policy.
The spokesperson for Twitter claimed Lindell used his account to
propagate unsubstantiated claims about fraud in the presidential
election.
Twitter implemented its new “civic integrity policy” last
fall in an effort to clamp down on misinformation.

Twitter didn’t provide proof of Mr. Lindell’s policy
violations. But he had advocated for election integrity and called
out constitutional violations executed by several of the
battleground states regarding their electoral college
certifications using his personal account and the MyPillow
corporate account in recent months.
Lindell has refused to embrace the false narrative that there
was no malfeasance in the 2020 election.
Federal courts never adjudicated any case based on evidence
provided that vote fraud, ballot tampering, or usurpations of
constitutional mandates had taken place. Each time the courts
relied on the malleable issue of “standing” to avoid hearing
any argument supporting Election malfeasance.
Dominion Voting Systems – whose machines and software have
proven to be less than secure by virtue of their own owner’s
manual – has threatened Lindell with a lawsuit for alleging the
company’s products stole “millions of votes.”

The cancel culture cabal pressured big retailers – including
Bed, Bath & Beyond and Kohl’s – to drop My Pillow’s
products after Lindell made a trip to the White House to have
private discussions with then-President Trump.
Twitter excommunicated Lindell less than three weeks after it
banned and purged President Donald Trump from the platform,
doing so while he was still the sitting President. The
controversial decision has raised legitimate questions about the
company’s power to censor elected officials.
