What is it with MAGAs and incarceration? They seem to think that they are somehow immune from it and they can do what they bloody well please, despite the examples of Peter Navarro, Paul Manafort, Steve Bannon and others showing them the opposite. Mike Lindell is in Chicago right now. He has applied for credentials at the DNC. His request was denied. So he is planning to shave his mustache “and go incognito,” and crash the convention. His mission impossible, if you missed it, is that he intends to go into the convention and spread the gospel of no voting machines and his version of *election integrity.* In so doing, he believes he will *flip Democrats.* Lindell’s voices also apparently tell him that he has already spoken to a multitude of Democrats who have already flipped and are going to vote for Donald Trump. The only flippee in this story is Lindell himself, who flipped long ago.
Good idea to sneak into the #DNC2024 Mike Lindell. The Secret Service loves it when people show up uninvited to a National Security designated event with the Vice President of the United States and try to sneak in. pic.twitter.com/JDGj66A15X

This is sheer suicide and I hope somebody talks Lindell out of it. The security is going to be tighter than a drum and especially that much more so after the assassination attempt of Trump in Pennsylvania (yes, the one where he “took a bullet for democracy” and then two weeks later began selling glassware with embedded bullets.” That attempt.)
I remember working at a temp job in the Brentwood portion of Los Angeles when I was in law school. I was walking back from lunch and I suddenly saw all these roadblocks and construction signs and DO NOT ENTER signs. They had just sprung up out of the blue while I was eating the sushi lunch special. And L.A.P.D. cars were parked down the street and I could see cops talking to one another. I thought, “What’s this? A bank robbery?”
So when I got into the office I asked, “What in God’s name is going on in the street?” And I was told that Al Gore was speaking in one of the office buildings that night and the preparations I saw were just the beginning and the boss was thinking of letting us go home early because the traffic was going to get nuts, all that.
So the Secret Service do not mess around. When they go into lockdown mode they plan it all well in advance, execute it efficiently and they’re very thorough — and no, I don’t know what went awry in Pennsylvania at the Trump rally because that very issue is still under investigation. I can only tell you how working in the same neighborhood where a vice presidential appearance takes place in the evening can turn the place upside down.
The Democratic National Committee is in no mood to have instigators and MAGA agitators at the convention. I hope Mr. Lindell has one friend in the world who will talk straight to him and explain to him the error of his ways and talk him out of this. Or, sometime this week he may join the other denizens of Trump world and have his mug shot taken.
Works for me either way. We’ll write about his idiocy here, as always. Maybe the House Of Many Doors will be a wake up call for Mikey. I haven’t read his memoir so I don’t know if he got incarcerated when he was practicing his addiction but if he thinks that national security is such a lark, and he’s going to stroll around the DNC talking shit and making trouble, he is in for a rude awakening.
And actually Lindell will be lucky if the cops put him someplace safe before some annoyed Democrat decides to knock him on his butt. Not advocating or justifying fisticuffs here, but anybody attending the convention in Chicago is an active, engaged Democrat and the dead last thing they want is some moron who sells overpriced pillows to other morons coming in and raising hell. That said, you know the old expression about fools rushing in where wise men fear to go. If Mike ends up in either the local ER or the local hooscow, he’s the one putting himself there, nobody else.
I vote for the beat down, but now that he’s decided the best way to go incognito is to ANNOUNCE IT TO THE WORLD, I seriously doubt he makes it past security. Damnit. He may be better off setting up a lemonade stand to earn some extra cash.
You missed the best part. Lindell is selling tickets to the defenstration of his upper lip. For $2 you get to watch Lindell shave. You’re welcome.
The very definition of a MAGA moron
Oh hell, let him in. Put him on stage and let him speak for about 10 minutes. Then whisk him away to a padded room while sane people take the stage and remind the TV audience that ol’ Mikey’s what MAGA’s all about: stupidity.
Well, most likely he does have a rap sheet. That is until he was saved by jebus. The guy is really WEIRD and CREEPY. My husband and I met him at a farmers market when he was just starting to hawk his pillows. And after that every time we went to that farmers market we would take a very wide detour around him. At that time you could really tell that he was still on something.
I knew we were missing something the last couple of weeks: pillow man’s cray-cray. This is a person where crazy, creepy and weird come together creating that every so wonderful fourth set where all three intersect: the pennywise set. When I pass a storm drain while walking my dog, I expect to see pillow man looking out.
If he keeps spending his money on Trump’s Folly, the *stollen* election, he will be housed in the drain pipe.
(IMO) RW men must have “attention!” When they don’t have “fans” around them, they get lonely & deprived, or is that “depraved.” SMH… some (Dysfunctional) people never grow-up.
Lindell had never voted for anybody for president. And then along comes the worst candidate in American history and now Lindell’s politically active.
