Pillow Guy and confessed crackhead Mike Lindell is in a federal court in Denver this week as he stands accused of defaming a Dominion Voting Systems employee in the aftermath of the “stollen” election of 2020.
Eric Coomer is a Colorado resident who handled security for Dominion Voting Systems, and says his reputation was “irreparably harmed” by Lindell’s accusations that he helped steal the votes.
Coomer claims Lindell promoted a conspiracy theory started by podcaster Joe Oltmann on his “Conservative Daily” show on Nov. 9, 2020.
“Lindell aligned himself with an Antifa-obsessed Colorado podcaster and conspiracy theorist, Joseph Oltmann, who had made up a story about overhearing someone identified only as ‘Eric, the Dominion guy’ claim to have rigged the election against former President Trump on a supposed ‘Antifa conference call,’” the complaint reads. “…Lindell, however, has a long history of publishing and amplifying any story he hears that aligns with his preconceived narrative that the election was rigged, and Oltmann’s baseless lies about Dr. Coomer soon made their way into Lindell’s rotation.”
Speaking with Steve Bannon over the weekend, Lindell was threatening to bring one of his famous pillows to the trial to prove it wasn’t lumpy, as he was still chapped about a lawyer in a 2023 deposition called his pillows “lumpy.”
Proceedings in Denver began on Monday with jury selection and prayers outside the courthouse. And always a link to send money.
