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.

Frown all ya want. I want what I missed.
One does not have to click on a headline if they’ve already seen it! :)
“So what? I missed the sixth and seventh times.”
I agree with your point, if you can only come in here for a few minutes each day you would have missed this subject, and if you missed the subject you’d have no idea what postings to search for.
Sorta like looking for a needle in a haystack without knowing what a needle even is, let alone what it looks like.
Exactly! This is the first place I go. Lots of people have already found the latest and it saves me time.
I'm just as sincere as the reddit poster who started the rumor about the U.S. Army raiding a CIA facility in Germany that was using Scytl servers to communicate via Barcelona Spain to manipulate Dominion voting machines in the U.S. Denials by U.S. Army and Scytl only prove it's true because that's exactly what they would say, no?
I bet he's having a good chuckle too. :-)
Have you ever bothered to look at the side menu? The stories are posted there.
Unless our pages are configured differently, this threads subject title is not listed in the side bar as I write this. Yes, I do go to the side bar.
The Breaking News one on top is very fluid and changes often each day. If we do not check in regularly, we miss much.
Longest dependent clause I've seen in decades. Anyway, lighten up, it's okay!
Yup!
Mike is not a fair weather friend.
Loyalty and fealty are great qualities.
I need some new towels.
Guess where i am going to buy them?
The only one I can stand on Newsmax is Greg Kelly.
The rest are all second string benchwarmers.
Rob Schmidt is really good also!!!
MHG, they are coming out of the woodwork.
We need a Roach Motel around here.
When is he on?
I don’t know who he is.
The towels are beyond GREAT I have 4 sets, I have a mattress pad on every bed 6 sets of sheets and 10 pillows LOVE everything!!!
He is on at 7:00 PT Mon.- Friday 10:00 pm ET
“The *only* people actually saying they believe in a stolen election post here or on similar boards.”
According to Rasmussen, about 75% of Republicans, as well as many Independents and even about 20% of RATs, believe the election was stolen.
I agree that Mike has great intestinal fortitude.
He reminds me of Patrick Henry:
“Give me Liberty or give me Death!”
They would be on Twatter, and Fakebook doing the same things, except places wholly owned by the Democrats won’t allow freedom of speech, or a difference of opinion.
What you wrote is equivalent of saying “No Soviet citizens believe that Stalin is an evil murderer, except those in the Gulags.
He probably doesn’t know a dependent clause from a dangling participle.
Don’t tell me they have just lost that huge growth spurt? They were the only TV channel I watched after the fraud disaster. Now where do I go?
Maybe we will have a Trump Broadcasting Network soon?
