MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Alleges Twitter Is Carrying Fake Accounts in His Name; His Just-Banned Official Account’s Takedown Reveals the Ruse

HAMPTON, Georgia – MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell on Sunday launched a new Twitter account that was suspended less than four hours after its creation.

On the move by the social media giant, Lindell said, “Like the [banned] Twitter account, it’s more corrupt than you’ve seen there. Twitter, a week before that – a week before – they put up a fake account. Twitter’s done this three times to me, and then they run the account, and act like they’re me. So they go, ‘Oh, Mike’s okay with the election.’ Like everything’s business as normal.

“So they wouldn’t take it down, and I’m going, ‘Okay, I’ll fix you, Twitter.’ Now this is a fake Mike [Lindell] account – right? So I said, I’m going to put up a real account. It’s going to make worldwide news. They’re going to pull it down. But then everybody knows I am not on Twitter. Period.”

Indeed, Lindell’s second, latest suspension from Twitter did make international news. The suspension is presumably due to “ban evasion,” though Lindell said Twitter did not offer a reason for the banning. Before his account was suspended, he used the platform to announce in a tweet that the new account, @MikeJLindell, was the only official account. According to Business Insider Africa, the tweet included a video of Lindell confirming that the account was in fact his own.

“When you attack companies that are unique [in the] USA, like MyPillow – I’m not just saying it, because I think we get attacked a lot,” Lindell told The Georgia Star News. “A lot of other companies, 1.2 million Americans, and people and platforms, like even churches, lost their platforms on January 7th of 2021. Not just Donald Trump losing his Twitter,” Lindell said. “We can’t get the voice out of where the greatest politicians are going to come from, and these new candidates, and how bad the other ones were. That’s where we’re at.”

“And remember, on January 7th [2021], they tried to bring us down to a little dot. When I was growing up with a TV, black and white TV, we’d turn them off as kids. [The picture would] go down this little tiny dot … turn it back on, and [it would] come back to life,” Lindell said. “Well, they tried to turn out the lights in the United States over a year ago. And like Reagan said, ‘When the lights go out here, they go out everywhere.’

“They tried to cancel out our voice. There’s very few outlets out there that will speak out.”

Yes, Every Kid

Lindell pointed to the Real Georgia Speaks Team Trump bus tour as a solution getting the word out is where it’s at, in communicating.

Of his Twitter censorship ploy, Lindell said, “It was a great plan. The Left news media, the fake news, fell for it. Reeled them right in again, because it’s like herding cats. They’re horrible.”
