Divided reactions after judge sanctions My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell for ‘frivolous’ Smartmatic election lawsuit

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell got a slap on the wrist from a  U.S. District Court judge for a lawsuit he filed against voting machine maker Smartmatic that, at least in part, was ruled to fall “on the frivolous side of the line.”

“The Court agrees with Smartmatic that Lindell has asserted at least some groundless claims,” the judge wrote in his opinion dated Thursday.

“In particular, the Court concludes that at the very least Lindell’s claim against Smartmatic under the Support or Advocacy Clause falls on the frivolous side of the line (other claims do too). As a result, the Court orders Lindell and his previous counsel to pay some of the fees and costs Smartmatic has incurred defending itself and moving for sanctions,” Judge Carl J. Nichols wrote.

Lindell waved off the ruling by the judge nominated by former President Donald Trump and noted that it was just one of many other irons in the fire to improve election integrity through the court system.

“Whatever the judge thinks, that’s his opinion,” the conservative pillow maker said in an interview with Bloomberg Law. “I’ve got lawyers doing more important things like removing these machines from every state.”

Last summer, Lindell predicted that Trump would be reinstated as President of the United State of America by August 13.

“The morning of August 13, it will be the talk of the world, going, ‘Hurry up! Let’s get this election pulled down,” the huge Trump supporter said at the time. “Let’s right the right. Let’s get these communists out, you know that have taken over.”

But this week’s ruling was another blow to the pillow executive’s reinstatement theory as it also indicated that motions to dismiss the lawsuits against Smartmatic, Hamilton Place, and Dominion Voting Systems were also granted.

Smartmatic filed a complaint against Lindell earlier in the year alleging that he lied about the company’s role in the2020 election.

“Mr. Lindell’s message was as dangerous as it was factually inaccurate. Mr. Lindell told people that Smartmatic stole the 2020 U.S. election. He told people that Smartmatic’s election technology, hardware, and software were hacked by China and other foreign countries,” Smartmatic USA Corp.’s complaint against Lindell read.

“He told people that Smartmatic election technology, hardware, and software were developed for the sole purpose of stealing foreign elections by switching votes. And he told people that Smartmatic deployed its election technology, hardware, and software to do just that in the 2020 U.S. election. All lies,” it read.

Social media quickly divided into those in favor of the judge’s dismissal, or for Lindell’s insatiable appetite for election fraud lawsuits.

  1. We watched the 100% ABSOLUTE PROOF video when it came out. We were already convinced there was election theft. We were completely positive that it was rigged, and it was done with the absentee ballots.

    The video told us about the Smartmatic, that it was programmable and connected to the Internet, and all of these hackers were able to reverse the in-person votes in all the swing states, and everywhere else.

    We listened carefully to that presentation, we considered what we know about voting, and we thought about it… a lot.

    We were not convinced.

    Thousands of overseas actors could access American computers if they tried. But they couldn’t do it in an organized way. Even if they could access the computers used to count votes, they wouldn’t know which votes to flip, or where, and there are a crazy-high number of precincts. And they would leave behind auditable, paper ballots that could be recounted later under conditions that were controllable. So unless these machines were REPRINTING the ballots, this wouldn’t work.

    We contemplated that the machines could be rigged to PRINT counterfeit ballots that were filled in, and on-site workers could add those ballots into the mix. But if this happened, the totals in the precinct books would be wrong. The lists of who voted would be wrong. And the counterfeit ballots would be left in the vaults to be found later.

    It occurred to us that machines could be setup with a scoring system that could be electronically fixed during the election. But on-site workers would have to cooperate, election supervisors would have to be in on the job, and judges would have to be in on it as well. Lastly, if any of the state legislatures could be convinced that their state’s election was fixed, they could throw out the results and the legislature has the right to send its own slate of electors; or not to send any at all.

    Mail-in ballots, on the other hand, are much more vulnerable, especially if they are allowed to be handled or collected in an unsupervised way. Even if the on-site workers, the election supervisors, and judges are honest, if they are compromised by midnight rules and a deluge of trafficked ballots in target areas, the election could be stolen.

    We believe that the election was rigged, and we believe it was done using numerous different strategies. We think there are illegal registrations, voters who have moved, buying and selling of votes, and there are crooked officials in target areas. We think that the large numbers of trafficked ballots got through because the people who delivered them also had inside knowledge they shouldn’t have had; they knew who hadn’t voted in person; or, they knew the ballots they were depositing would not be seriously challenged before they were opened, or would be doctored by an inside worker, so the names and addresses going into the precinct books would match, and any recount effort would not change the fraudulent result.

    The biggest problem of all for those of us who doubted the integrity of this election is, like all other major scandals, the truth has to be pursued and this takes time and effort. Easy answers like the Smartmatic or Chinese hacker theory makes it harder for us to find the very difficult answers — in this case, that this is a very wide conspiracy, and we’ll have to single out and bust an awful lot of criminals.

    The United States has a captured media. It favors the Democratic Party and it is permanently fused to it. The Democratic Party is doing this. The money flows from NGOs to Get-Out-The-Vote groups and they are paying the traffickers. Someone has to figure out what we can do about this; but it’s too late to undo the election. We have to take action to prevent this from happening again.

  2. Doesnt matter who appoints the Judges, they soon get paid off and turn corrupt and do as the swamp want them to, especially when it comes to voting.

  3. The court system is pure corruption and Hegelian Communist Ideologies. These worthless psuedo intellectualism disguised as “republic juris doctors” are nothing more than parasitic vampires sucking the blood out of our rreat nation thru “judicial sophism!”
    Why?
    “That’s the business, folks!”
    Aforementioned in previous correspondence “federal agencies are unconstitutional, period!” The United States didn’t have a U.S. Department of Justice until 1870! Research the massive crimes committed by this organization against State rights, individual citizens, thru murder, extortion, corruption.
    Yes.
    Federal agencies have ZERO POWER outside federal lands but Washington D.C. extends its corruption thru public treasury administration to bribe your local and state officials to operate within State borders.
    Yes.
    GET RID OF 90% OF THESE UNCONSTITUTIONAL FEDERAL AGENCIES THAT NOW PROTECT & PROMOTE COMMUNISM!
    Yes.
    A Presidential Executive Order does not have the power to change existing law passed by Congress or restrained under Article 6 of United States Constitution! A Presidential Executive Order can ONLY be applied to CITIZENS in cases of ILLEGAL FOREIGN INVASION or INSURRECTION to overthrow United States Constitution! The Constitution Grant’s FULL AUTHORITY to CITIZENS to arrest, capture, kill, any “creature of statute” thereby violating Article 6 of United States Constitution.
    Yes.
    Presidential Executive Orders outside limited Constitutional authority mentioned are specifically for U.S. Armed Forces only within grace of the Constitution.
    COVID LOCKDOWNS, FOREIGN NATIONALS INVADING OUR BORDERS, LAWLESS JUDGES, PROPAGANDA MEDIA, LACK OF PROPER CIVICS EDUCATION, ARE A COMMUNIST TAKEOVER!

  4. It leaves me wondering the effect of refiling the case increasing the defendant list to include the judge by name. If there was no evidentiary hearing, calling it frivolous might be outside the authority of the court – but the damages would continue to be real.

  5. You just can’t make accusations without proof and that proof can’t be the contention that Trump should have won. 2000 mules really has no proof, but it has some evidence that there were some untoward incidents going on. You’re not going to overturn the election but Biden will always be the president that wasn’t. What needs to be concentrated on by the republicans after the midterm is creating solid election reform that offers access to voting to every citizen but also guarantees that the process allows one vote for one citizen and not create the murky method that the democrats pushed when they allowed anyone to vote , no identification required etc., in the name of voter suppression, this allowing illegal activity.

    1. Although we’re not here to congratulate DINESH D’SOUZA or help his movie 2000 MULES, the amount of evidence presented in the film was considerable and convincing. The Democratic Party might be able to rig machines or hack computers; we don’t know; but they have been stuffing ballot boxes for over a century and we DO know that.

      The Dems have gotten laws changed as to the who, where, and how of voting in order to advance their own candidates and short-sheet their opponents. They have engaged in gerrymandering for 200+ years and that is undeniable. Because of Democrats, people who live in the District of Columbia can vote for President, even though so many of them work for the government they will never choose a Republican. The voting age was 21 since the country began; Democrats got it lowered to 18, which is senseless, based on the theory of the draft, that we haven’t had in 50 years. Of course, they also want felons to be able to vote in all 50 states. Driving a car has nothing to do with voting, but Democrats passed “Motor-Voter” to make every DMV officer a de facto voter registrar, and now 16-year-olds can pre-register to vote in some places. Both the Dems and the Republicans have made it impossible for a third party to win the Presidency and that is undeniable. But the award goes to the Democrats for blitzkrieg corruption, mass delusion by media, and a thirst for money and power that has brought the wealthiest country in the world closer and closer to financial ruin.

      There have been fourteen Democrat-contrived scandals since the Russiagate (2016) that is playing out in court now. Fourteen. And most of them (not including COVID) are based on piles of lies — meaning they were planned in advance. It can take years to unravel these things. And the captured media pushes the lies out en masse.

      We don’t know what the exact, real total was from the 2020 election. We don’t have to know that exact number to know that enough electioneering occurred so that the real outcome is unknowable.

  6. And yet the left, lied, cheated, cost tax payers multiple millions. The voting machines used were banned from other countries because of how easy to manipulate. But NO one did a damn thing. Give us the total numbers who voted against the number of Registered voters. Scares the left.

    1. When the SCOTUS refuses to even think about massive voter fraud after the last Presidential election, our nation has a serious problem. No evidence of voter fraud no matter how much evidence is uncovered appears to be the motto of far too many Americans. The sad part of it is, they get away with it.

  7. Judge made his home with the rats and snakes and Black Water. Hes nothing more than mosquito larvae.
