Newsmax host Heather Childers began the interview by asking Lindell why he was permanently suspended. The MyPillow CEO immediately dove into a speech about election fraud and began making claims about Dominion Voting Systems that have been refuted by many.
Sellers quickly tried to interrupt, noting that Newsmax has “not been able to verify any of those kinds of allegations.”
Lindell starts talking about voting machines and election fraud during a segment he was likely warned not to. Newsmax, who is being targeted by Dominion for defamation, and the hosts of the show weren’t very happy about the detour. That’s certainly understandable. Libel laws are libel laws, and given the litigious nature of the current political scene, Newsmax has to make moves to protect itself.
