Newsmax Segment With MyPillow's Mike Lindell Ends in Anchor Walking Off Set Over Election Fraud Claims
Newsweek ^ | 2/2/21 | BENJAMIN FEARNOW

Posted on 02/03/2021 12:40:03 PM PST by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Tuesday "social media censorship" segment on Newsmax ended in dramatic fashion as MyPillow founder and ardent President Donald Trump supporter Mike Lindell ranted about election fraud until one of the anchors walked off the set.

One of Newsmax's live broadcast anchors, Bob Sellers, appealed to the show's producers "can we get out of here please," after he asked Lindell whether he should be permanently or temporarily banned from Twitter. Instead of responding to the question, Lindell launched into a tirade about voting machine fraud and other false conspiracies that pulled several TV networks into legal problems late last year. Sellers could be seen removing his microphones and physically departing the set as Lindell continued yelling.

The Newsmax anchors then read a disclaimer which sought to counter Lindell's wide array of election conspiracies about President Joe Biden's victory being "illegitimate." Lindell claimed both his personal Twitter account and his MyPillow business account were taken down because he has "100 percent proof" of voting fraud during the 2020 presidential election.

Sellers interrupted Lindell's rant to tell viewers "you're talking about machines that we at Newsmax have not been able to verify any of those kinds of allegations, nothing substantive there." The anchor then read off a legal disclaimer that many TV network figures, including Fox News host Jeanine Pirro and Fox Business host Lou Dobbs, were obliged to read after receiving cease and desist orders from Smartmatic. Lindell attempted to talk over Sellers' reading of the disclaimer and appeared to accuse him of holding the line for the "status quo."

"While there was some evidence of clear voting fraud and election irregularities, the election results in every state were certified and Newsmax accepts the results as legal and final and the courts have also supported that view," Sellers said in the disclaimer.

Newsmax is employing the Fox News "Let's pretend the election wasn't stolen" model.

We're all supposed to pretend we didn't see what we saw.

An election board of supervisors, under subpoena, refuses to allow access to either ballots or voting machines from the election of November 2020. To a person who has simple logic and common sense this is . . .

A.) a conspiracy theory.

B.) Russian disinformation.

C.) evidence of vote fraud.

“Posted for about the sixth or seventh time.”

I appreciate that. Sometimes I miss earlier threads.

Also, sometimes 1 new thread + 1 new day = some new information.

Wrong. Dominion cannt stand the discovery process that would be authorized in a lawsuit when it goes to trial. Their own manual on the software and machine workings (functions) indicts them. Let alone the video of a Dominion boss explaing how to use the weighting function.

Simply the fact that in one state there were thousands more ballots tallied than there were people who voted makes it more than suspicious.

Dobcha hate it when the person you are trying to interview feels more strongly about their story than yours?

Newsmax is the new democratic socialistic news platform.

I am lucky. I work at a small corporation and my CEO voted for Trump. He and I email each other now and then about things. We work with many democrats, but has no issue saying exactly what he thinks, either.
I usually leave the politics at home except with him and a few others.

No MyPillows cause cancer. There's bombshell statistical evidence. And a video of biblical proportions describing just what this mystery material Mike is using and how he's smuggling it into the country from Venezuela. It's so huge, it could only be described as a Kraken.

“Claiming the ‘election was stolen’ is going to be about the equivalent of making racist statements going forward: kiss your job and reputation goodbye.

The *only* people actually saying they believe in a stolen election post here or on similar boards.”

Really! Then where do you put those hundreds, perhaps a thousand or more, citizens that, under the threat of perjury, submitted affidavits that they personally observed election fraud?
