Elections Officials Shut Down MyPillow Guy's Bizarre Idaho Election Fraud Claims After Recount

It's a day that ends in "Y," which means pillow peddler and pro-Trump conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell is still falsely insisting the 2020 election was stolen, refusing to provide proof he promises to have, and seeing his fraud fantasies debunked under the slightest scrutiny.

Since Trump lost the 2020 election, nearly a year ago, Lindell has promised that Trump actually won by a landslide, but saw victory "stolen" from him by Democrats engaging with elections software companies and foreign countries to facilitate widespread fraud.


After months of promising irrefutable proof of these fantasies, Lindell said he would finally reveal his evidence at his cyber symposium, where he absurdly claimed the symposium would result in the resignations of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

At the symposium, Lindell didn't just claim Trump actually won the election, but that he won by a historic landslide electoral margin. The pillow pusher went state-by-state, constantly inflating Trump's margin, even in states Trump won, such as Idaho.

Lindell made the familiar claim that Idaho's electronic ballot counting systems diverted Trump votes to Biden votes.

Now, after a partial audit of Idaho's counties, claims of election fraud have, yet again, collapsed under even the most basic scrutiny. First of all, Lindell claimed the electronic voting systems in all of Idaho's 44 counties were compromised. Never mind that seven Idaho counties' ballots are completely cast and counted without electronics.

Officials hand recounted ballots in Butte and Camas counties which predictably upheld the results of the 2020 election, with the hand recounts exactly matching or landing within the margin of error for the original electronic tallies.

Deputy Secretary of State Chad Houck, a Republican, said:

"We also felt [Lindell's accusations] would be very easy to disprove. By disproving even a handful of lines on that sheet, we could have confidence the rest of the components of that sheet were likewise fabrications.

No one was surprised Lindell's latest delusion fell apart.





Others wanted to know why election officials investigated the long-discredited Lindell's claims anyway.


Lindell shows no signs of withdrawing his lies.

Jasmine Crockett Hilariously Shades Trump With Trolling Question About 'Immigrant Crime' During Hearing

Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas went viral after she shamed President Donald Trump with a question she posed to mayors about immigration during a House hearing that mocked him for his felony convictions—without naming him at all.

In May last year, Trump became the first former president to be convicted of felony crimes. The jury found him guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels to illegally influence the 2016 election.

Though Obama declined the offer, he reportedly responded by email, expressing that he’s a “big fan” of the show.

'Ferris Bueller' Clip Explaining Tariff Disaster In 1930 Goes Viral Amid Trump's Tariff War

People are nodding their heads after a clip from the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off in which Ben Stein's teacher character explains the disastrous results of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act in 1930 went viral after President Donald Trump's announced tariffs on goods imported from Canada and Mexico.

The scene features a high school economics teacher, played by Ben Stein, lecturing his uninterested students about the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act—a real-life 1930 bill signed by President Herbert Hoover that raised tariffs on imported goods. The law, often blamed for exacerbating the Great Depression, has drawn comparisons to Trump’s recent trade policies.
