Lindell’s free speech platform is UP - they are live streaming for 48 hours after coming under a massive cyber attack this morning. Being able to create an account/profile has been put off (some are being allowed this evening) for the 48 hours. General Flynn was on most of the day, Dinesh D’Souza, Ben Carson, Roger Stone (on now), Diamond & Silk, Steve Bannon, plus others that I don’t know, but most have been deplatformed.

Anyway, it’s been a great day so far. You can get to this by going to https://frankspeech.com

If you order from My Pillow, use the promo code “Frank” and get up to 66% off.

The reason these companies are bowing to the Left is because the Left punishes them. The Right has not been able or willing to provide any reason for these companies to fear the Right.

How long before they formally establish the Inquisition?

Organize one locally. All you need is ONE successful turnout to go viral, then others will follow.

I am having so much fun with my boycotts. Walk right past the Bed Bath & Beyond store without a pang of remorse. Deleting every email that requires Pay Pal. Telling Papaya Dog that I’ll buy Pepsi when they get rid of the Coke. Playing Blind Willie McTell.

And this time they won't use The Soft Pillows.

None of these cases was adjudicated — judges invoked technical reasons to avoid addressing the merits.”

Did they have merit? Was it sloppy lawyering or what?

RE: Did they have merit? Was it sloppy lawyering or what?

How could it not have merit?

Lawyers from 23 states ( including the battleground state of Pennsylvania ) joined the lawsuit.

In PA, it was VERY CLEAR that their courts, not the legislature CHANGED the election rules which is totally against their own and the United States constitution.

You can have the best lawyers in the world, but of the SCOTUS doesn’t want to get involved, you can’t go anywhere else.

I would not pay to shop anywhere.
Go directly to Mr. Pillow’s site.

I’m going to print his ads and leave them around every time I go to Costco.

I go to Costco now and then with a friend, but they really do not have anything I want except Alaskan Wild Caught Salmon Burgers. She can continue buying them for me.

As for Lindell, great guy, better than stores that ban him. Still, I think the pillow is terrible.

For over a month now, I have stopped wearing masks. I am happy, friendly, approachable and high-vibing, and most times I am the ONLY person in the store sans mask. Most of the time, no one even seems to notice. My decision was to only put it on if they approached me and requested it nicely. (If they are not nice, I will turn around and leave.) I've been in Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Circle K, Walgreen's, CVS, Macy's, Nordstrom, DSW Shoes, Petsmart and others and no one has said a word to me.

Costco has been the only exception. Those condescending Hitlers approach me every time. Usually I make it halfway into the warehouse before someone says something. I have walked away from a shopping cart full of perishables and left the store. Last week, however, I made it all the way to the cash register before one of the cart guys came over to pester me. He was polite, so I put it on, paid for my stuff, and took it off again the second the cashier handed me the receipt, gave him a big smile and said, "Thank yew! Y'all have a nice day!"

Jerks.

What I don't understand is people willingly walking into the store wearing their slave garb. I'll be damned if I'm going to willingly wear that yellow star. I'm going to make them make me wear it. If enough people did that, it would get old to them really fast.

I ordered two pillows directly from them and when I received them, I thought, "I'm going to hate these pillows...." They were just lumpy and weird. I put them in the dryer as they instructed and they were even lumpier and weirder afterwards.

Turns out I was wrong. Those are some good-sleeping, weird, lumpy pillows!

Well, they ALWAYS have better gas prices than anywhere. Can’t find any station lower than them. Ain’t gonna stop using them.

I was in a local “Giant Food” store the other day, in the “international” isle, where the Goya brand is displayed. Goya is still there, despite having conservative ties. It is just too popular. But I notice a six foot section full of a new brand — obviously a competitor of Goya. Funny thing is that it was pristine — I don’t think a single product had been sold. The rest of the store was looking pretty picked over.

My brother bought two for me. I don’t like them. They are too springy.

I have two sobakawa pillows in one case. Since about thirty years now. Ew, probably time to replace them. :)

Costco forbids concealed carry in their club stores, so I will never do business with Costco.

As of 2-3 years ago, Costco policy was "follow the local laws", so in TX they had no problem with people conceal/open carrying. I did it, and I've seen maybe 4-5 other peop;le at various times carrying there. Then maybe a year ago they changed that to complete no-firearms, but their website claims it's not a new policy. Orwellian.

Orwellian.

I can't speak for Texas, but when a Costco opened up in my town in Michigan in 2017, my wife got a family membership for us. I concealed carried there and never gave it a second thought. Then one day I noticed the "no firearms" sign at the entrance. It wasn't new, I just never noticed it before. So I did some digging and sure enough, their corporate policy was NO FIREARMS at all of their stores, regardless of the state laws.

Now most concealed carry people would say "concealed means CONCEALED" and continue to carry anyway, at least in states where the "no firearms" signs do not carry the weight of law. And that's what I did, too, because Michigan is one of those states where the sign does not carry the weight of law unless you are verbally asked to leave the premises.

But when it came time to renew the membership, I refused to renew it, and I wrote a letter to corporate telling them that their no firearms policy lost them my membership.

They wrote back that they were sorry to see me go, but that was their policy. And this was 2018 when I didn't renew.
