Mike Lindell's MyPillow evicted from Shakopee warehouse
Fox 9 KMSP ^ | March 28, 2024

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - A court ordered the eviction Wednesday of MyPillow from a suburban Minneapolis warehouse that it formerly used, but company founder and prominent election denier Mike Lindell said that it’s just a formality because the landlord wants to take the property back.

Lindell denied in an interview with The Associated Press that the eviction was another sign of his money woes. He said his financial picture is actually improving after a credit crunch last year disrupted cash flow at MyPillow after the company lost one of its major advertising platforms and was dropped by several national retailers.

"We’re fine," he said.

Lindell faced a setback last month when a federal judge affirmed a $5 million arbitration award in favor of a software engineer who challenged data that Lindell said proves China interfered in the 2020 U.S. presidential election and tipped the outcome to Joe Biden. Lindell acknowledged in January that Fox News stopped running MyPillow commercials amid a billing dispute.

Lindell confirmed Wednesday that MyPillow owes around $217,000 to Delaware-based First Industrial LP for rent for the facility in Shakopee. He said MyPillow no longer needed the space and removed its remaining property from the warehouse last June before subleasing the space to another company through December.

Another company was going to start subleasing the space in January but backed out and "left us all stranded," he said. MyPillow offered to find another tenant, he said, but the landlord just wanted to take back control of the warehouse instead. The $217,000 is for unpaid rent for January and February, he said. He also said MyPillow continues to lease space elsewhere.

I hope Mike Lindell get a handle on his business. If his circumstances did change, he’s gotta change with it. I will pray he can through this, because hundreds of people rely on him.

Lindell has been attacked and driven nearly to bankruptcy because he supported and defended Trump. Trump just made many hundreds of millions from Truth Social. He should payback Lindell for what he has lost.

leftist and nevertrumpers on other sites are all gloating and hoping he goes bankrupt soon, so all the places he helps support like bannon, john frederics, etc. go out of business too.

At the very least, Trump could exclusively use MyPillow products in his hotels.

That would be a significant assist. Nice hotels go through pillows and sheets frequently.

Who is the deadbeat sub-tenant who is refusing to fulfill their lease obligation?

If he were a squatter or an illegal alien he could settle in for a few months or years.

Interesting. NordVPN seems to be blocking MyPillow website. With NordVPN I am blocked. Without Nord I get right in.
