Some people don’t know when to quit. Mike Lindell keeps going on TV or podcasts and saying things that he is bound to live to regret. Here he is just yesterday openly taunting the Dominion executive, Eric Coomer, who recently settled a defamation case with Newsmax — which incensed Lindell, you may recall. He told Newsmax that he took it as a personal insult that they settled. I mean, it was a slam dunk defamation case and if they didn’t settle, they could have been bankrupted out of business, but whatever. Lindell took umbrage to the settlement.
Mike Lindell states that it’s over for Dominion and that Eric Coomer (the director of product strategy and security for Dominion) should turn himself in so he will only receive a prison sentence of 10-20 years. pic.twitter.com/NOEeMJ9fNw

This is stark raving madness, but Lindell is a True Believer. He believes the Big Lie. He also believes that, like the Blues Brothers, he’s on a mission from God.
Lindell says tonight that God came to him in a dream and told him that he was chosen to meet Trump, and they would change the world together. He says before their first meeting that his friends advised him, “don’t tell him you were a crackhead.” pic.twitter.com/aLv5TeF0J7

He apparently doesn’t realize, or doesn’t care, how any of this sounds to normal minded people.
And of course, it is believable on a certain level that a crack head would meet a trust baby reality TV actor, who never worked a day in his life, and the two of them would “change the world” — and incite insurrection and corrode democracy. We live in a culture in the second decade of the 21st Century, where things that once were totally implausible are now mundane.
In the meantime, I get mail.
And you like #Graham over #Lin? I know you would prefer neither, but since you miss the real crooks, start here. pic.twitter.com/yRdWkLFH2c

I was watching freespeech this morning, and what you tweeted out was all wrong, why don't you tell the truth? Stop lying to us the people, frank speech is awesome and there we can hear the truth, You WILL, not maybe but WILL answer you God for all you lies— Cindy Grebba (@Cindygrebba) May 10, 2021
The God of my understanding is a very smart, very hip Democrat who made his chosen people in his image.
The #Guyana #coroner said they were #shot at #Jonestown.

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ keep those loonies trollin’ keep those MAGAs foamin’ Lin-DELL. Through riots drugs, whatever, the crazies flock together and they all find their way to your side. Lin-DELL!
All loonies. No serious issues between them. It’s all about them. Nuff said.
Some of the people at Jonestown *were* shot…because they wouldn’t drink the poison. But I doubt that the RWNJs really know about that.
Congressman Leo Ryan and his entourage were also shot at the airstrip when they were preparing to leave Guyana.
However, among the People’s Temple residents, only TWO of the deaths were confirmed to have not been from the poisoning (Jones being one of them). And most of the people who died from gunshots were in the process of trying to FLEE the community before the mass “suicide” (the poisoning) began.
It’s worth noting that it wasn’t actually “Kool-Aid” but rather the similar product, “Flavor Aid.” (“Kool-Aid” has sort of lapsed from formal trademark protection, much like “Xerox” and “Band-Aid” and “Kleenex.” The Jonestown community did have both products but it’s believed that there was more Flavor Aid as that product is generally less expensive since it lacks the “name” value that Kool-Aid has and the community was generally as frugal as possible with their funds.)
We have a friend who was in the military at the time of the Jonestown massacre. He was part of the group that went in to retrieve the bodies. He has severe PTSD from that, compounded by the PTSD from Nam. There were only a few bodies that were not so badly decomposed so as to determine they had actually been shot.
I have a suggestion for the true believers…ask for more flavors next time.
So, God came to ML in a dream?
I wonder just what he’s stuffing his pillows with
