‘Everything Was on My Phone’: Mike Lindell in Utter Panic as FBI Took His Phone – Social Media is Loving It Though
The FBI is going into its “60 Day period,” the time during which it tries to lay off criminal investigations that have some sort of political implications, with a big bang, serving subpoenas and warrants on forty to fifty people associated with Trump’s effort to steal the 2020 election from the rightful winner. In the last week, the FBI has served 40 subpoenas for electronic devices on people who served as fake electors, arrested Steve Bannon, and now has taken Mike Lindell’s phone under a warrant.
Lindell is more than a bit scared, as you will see in his eyes below. But as scared as Lindell might be, there might be someone even more afraid. From Donald Trump’s Truth Social:
Breaking News: Mike Lindell, “THE Pillow Guy,” was just raided by the FBI. We are now officially living in a Weaponized Police State, Rigged Elections, and all. Our Country is a laughing stock all over the World. The majesty of the United States is gone. Can’t let this happen. TAKE BACK AMERICA!
Sir, this is a Hardee’s pic.twitter.com/OlkzPaYD7u

A weaponized police state says the guy who put the military on the border, considered unleashing the military on America’s streets in 2020, cleared out Lafayette Park, and who pardoned his friends who kept quiet.

Now, let’s hear from Mike Lindell himself. Poor Mike doesn’t have a computer; all his stuff was on his phone – we presume that means all his proof that the election was stolen. Plus, the FBI told him not to tell anyone! There is one good thing that came out of the matter, Lindell was at Hardees, which serves a mad mushroom and swiss burger, perhaps the best fast food burger in existence.
Wow. He looks scared. The indignation is faked. The anger and fear are real. You can see it and hear it in his voice. There could be some interesting things on that phone. Maybe Trump has a reason to be worried.
And as Twitter is wont to do, they are loving it:
first the FBI came for Mike Lindell's phone, and I didn't speak out— because I was laughing so hard that I couldn't catch my breath

The seizure of MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s phone means that a federal judge found that there is good reason to believe that a crime was committed and that evidence of that crime would be found on Lindell’s cell phone. https://t.co/Jxt6lknVO2

Mike Lindell ignores direct written orders from the FBI after having his phone seized.
Indict. Arrest. Try. Convict. Sentence.

BREAKING: Thanks to a search warrant, the FBI seized My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell's phone.
Fear not, MAGA grifters and lawbreakers. I am sure that Mike Lindell is smart enough not to have explicitly detailed your criminal activity in plain and easy to read text messages.

MAGAts, welcome to the find out phase of fuck around and find out 🤣

My heart goes out to the FBI agents who now have to scroll through crazy Mike Lindell’s phone.
The ratio of stupid, repetitive nonsense to incriminating, usable evidence is going to be mind-numbing.
