Lindell Auctions Equipment as MyPillow Flounders

MyPillow Founder and CEO Mike Lindell claims the company has had to borrow almost $10 million to keep the lights on."The machine companies continue to sue us for billions of dollars, and we had to borrow almost $10 million at MyPillow," Lindell told far-right radio host and former Trump advisor Steve Bannon on Wednesday.
But while Lindell claims to be hemorrhaging cash, the company continues to liberally distribute discount codes for its sponsorship program. An investigation by the progressive watchdog Media Matters found that MyPillow was helping fund at least 17 QAnon-affiliated shows and personalities by offering them a cut of sales made through their sales code.
MyPillow is auctioning off hundreds of pieces of equipment and subleasing manufacturing space after several shopping networks and major retailers took the company's products off shelves. The Chaska-based manufacturer recently listed more than 850 "surplus equipment" items on the online auction site K-Bid. Sewing machines, industrial fabric spreaders, forklifts, and even desks and chairs are up for auction.
Founder and CEO Mike Lindell said MyPillow has experienced a loss in revenue and the items are no longer needed as the company consolidates its operations. "It was a massive, massive cancellation," Lindell said in a phone interview Monday. "We lost $100 million from attacks by the box stores, the shopping networks, the shopping channels, all of them did cancel culture on us."
Evidnetly, the free market is cancel culture now.

The auction of more than 800 pieces of "surplus industrial equipment" by MyPillow appears to have got off to a slow start, with more than 100 items having no bids at all whilst many others are currently going for well below the market price.
For example, a 45-inch by 20-inch 'Hytrol Power Belt Conveyor' is currently going for $5, despite similar products being sold for more than $250 on other second-hand websites.

Context is key.
Yes, they can refuse to do business with anyone for any reason. If they refuse over partisan politics, that is "canceling".
Just as Bud Lite is a cancellation by consumers (I drank several cans this past week, it is a dumb boycott)

I don't want federal power expansion, but this looks more like a conflict for supremacy of the executive branch.
In theory yeah, you want checks and balances on the President. In practice, intelligence agencies are as big of a threat to the public as a rogue president is, the NSA spying programs and water boarding reveals prove that.
Trump didn't hide who he was in 2016 and you knew full on who he was in 2020, yet you voted for him twice and will vote for him a third time even after he tried his best to overturn a fair election in the courts and states level and then staged a violent and deadly insurrection as a last resort.
So suck it up, loser, you get what you pay for 👆
Michigan charges 16 fake electors for Donald Trump with election law and forgery felonies
Michigan’s attorney general filed felony charges Tuesday against 16 Republicans who acted as fake electors for then-President Donald Trump in 2020, accusing them of submitting false certificates that confirmed they were legitimate electors despite Joe Biden’s victory in the state.
Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, announced Tuesday that all 16 people would face eight criminal charges, including forgery and conspiracy to commit election forgery. The top charges carry a maximum penalty of 14 years in prison. -snip
Hopefully they all end up in prison, what a bunch of silly degenerates.
Indeed they do, the more severe charges carry up to 14yr prison sentences, add up the multiple felonies and they could be in prison for decades.
The 16 seem to vary from early 50s to early 80s. Imagine spending the end of your life in prison because you fell in love with a pathological liar who doesn't give a single shit about anyone except himself. Nutty.
Imagine creating martyrs for a cause after fronting someone so daft he reads "repeat the lne" from the teleprompter.
Imagine seeing Israel and many other countries shift right and being so desperate Trump will beat you you need to lock up all his supporters.
Imagine losing the culture war, having Muslims ban the Pride flag, and blaming Republicans for it.
Everything's gonna be fine. Soon.

Always get a giggle when Trumper's attack Biden for being senile, a moron, idiotic, imbecilic, that senile old man beat Trump, the sitting president who had every advantage going into the 2020 election. Also has outmaneuvered the GOP multiple times, despite the House and Supreme Court being in the Far-Right's control.
