A viral petition urging some of the country's biggest retail chains to stop selling MyPillow products has gained more than 90,000 signatures.
The change.org petition demanding businesses such as Walmart and Amazon remove items from Mike Lindell's company from sale was created in mid-January after he was photographed holding a note before a meeting with then-president Donald Trump which appeared to show him advocating for martial law being imposed.
The meeting took place in the wake of the deadly attack at the Capitol on January 6 in which far-right extremists and Trump supporters attempted to overthrow the government in support of the baseless claim of widespread election fraud, which Lindell repeatedly backed.
"Today 01/15/2021 the MyPillow founder met with President Trump and suggested instituting martial law after the twice impeached president staged a coup," the petition states. "Time to tell our major retailers to stop selling his products. We will not support funding insurrectionists!"
The petition also urges Bed Bath & Beyond and Costco to cut ties with MyPillow due to Lindell's views. However, since the petition was launched Bed Bath & Beyond announced they have removed MyPillow products from its stores due to lack of demand rather, than the behavior of its CEO.
"We have been rationalizing our assortment to discontinue a number of underperforming items and brands. This includes the MyPillow product line. Our decisions are data-driven, customer-inspired and are delivering substantial growth in our key destination categories," a spokesperson previously said.
A small number of MyPillow products are currently available on Bed Bath & Beyond's website in a clearance sale.
Costco also said it plans to continue selling MyPillow products because it has a "contractual commitments to MyPillow that we intend to honor, as we seek to do with all of our suppliers."

the democRats hate choice
The MyPillow pajamas that I ordered on the 2nd should have been here yesterday.
I’m wondering if some leftist FedEx employee saw the tag, “MyPillow,” and decided to screw with my purchase.
Boycotts are illegal in many States including Colorado.
Damn. The college snowflake NAZIS are on a roll. Stealing an election wasn’t enough for those little bitches.
Old-time liberal: I do not like your product. I will not buy it.
Modern fascist liberal: I do not like your product. No one must buy it.
Time to boycott Newsweak and MSN. The answer to this NAZI horsesh*t is as simple as that.
Okay, people, you know what to do.
here comes the media again carrying the water for their comrade loons on social media.
90K ain’t sh%t btw
Where’s that petition to KEEP Mike Lindell..?
Amazon better make good choices.
democrats = mob rule. Tell them to GTH!
In the spirit of Nikita Sergeyevich Khrushchev: We will bury you
That’s the thanks he gets for turning his factory into a mask making operation when there was a shortage.
Fantastic pillow!
I wonder how many orders MyPillow has received since the petition started. I bet a lot. I know we have ordered a lot since this started. I even wrote a letter, personal letter to WM blasting them about MyPillow removal and buying items from China knowing good and well that China uses SLAVE LABOR. I was mad, but I never read about it in the news. Only the Left gets their petiitions reported
Why do the Left always fight (if this is even true) and we don’t!!
That’s not very many.
True. We have no rule of law left.
I just had to buy another one. My wife stole mine. Bit of a backlog, so I think he’s doing fine. Made in America is a big deal for me. Who wants their face laying on a pillow made in Covid-China....
Already done that decades ago.
