Maybe cancel culture is an air borne contagion, you suppose, like the coronavirus? Because it sure seems to be a pandemic right now. The latest major cancellation is Mike Lindell canceling Newsmax and sending his followers — and we are told they are legion, 2 Billion strong — over to OAN. He’s doing this because Newsmax settled out of court with Dominion executive Eric Coomer and issued a public apology. Evidently Lindell just got wind of this because he went bonkers.

Now what is comical here, is that both OAN and Fox News are involved in litigation with Dominion, and if you had to bet on a resolution today, anybody with a lick of sense, let alone legal knowledge, would tell you to bet on those outlets settling. So I guess, at the end of the day, there will just be Lindell and his own website talking this talk — and then it will be Lindell’s turn to settle.

Intriguing how Lindell took Newsmax settling as a personal betrayal. Very interesting.

The other thing that is interesting is that it has been said about Lindell many times that he’s a true believer. The rest of the Trump gang, Rudy Giuliani, Roger Stone, Trump’s children, they all know that this is a bunch of hooey. They merely stay on the election fraud bandwagon because it’s allowing some grift right now, but they all know that this is going nowhere. Not Lindell. He was thrilled to be on Jimmy Kimmel’s show. He said he was booked by God.

Lindell sees the hand of God in these events. Maybe he can ask Pat Robertson or one of those guys to explain why Newsmax turned into Judas?

If I owned Newsmax — or OAN or Fox News, for that matter — I wouldn’t know whether to fix a pitcher of martinis or play Russian roulette right about now. Newsmax had no choice but to settle and they’re all going to have to settle. If they go to court and push this thing to the limit, they could get bankrupted out of existence. Maybe that’s what Lindell plans to do. It’s a mighty strange hill to die on, but it does seem to be the one he’s picked.

  1. We are through the looking glass, or in that opposite universe from the original Star Trek where all the good guys are bad guys and vice versa. First Lindell rants about you and this site but encourages his followers to come here and it seems some of them actually have! And now we have him calling on those same followers to abandon one of the only “news” sources they trust. W T F?

    • They are not supposed to read and hear news, but simply hear speeches and commands from their Leader and Savior. First you tell them to ignore a segment of news, then you tell them to ignore most of the news and finally you tell them they can only trust THE Source of the True Word, the Orange God of Greatnesch and vishdome. It’s no different than what the Germans did during their experiment in 1933-45.

      • Or, what the Russians did under Communism (and, to a degree, what’s still going on under Putin) or what happens on a daily basis in North Korea.

    • FWIW, in that “opposite universe from the original Star Trek,” it really wasn’t a case of “all the good guys are bad guys and vice versa.” EVERYONE in the “Mirror Universe” was a bad guy; it was just a matter of degree.

  2. Actually the pillow guy probably does have 2B followers.

    Unfortunately, when he read the number on the server he didn’t realise it wasn’t in denary and, instead of 2 Billion, it actually was the hexadecimal number 2B which, in denary is all of 43 sheeple

  3. Could it be that he and those millions who cling to, and propagate fanatical and conspiratorial ideas, are proof that adding lead to America’s gasoline for several decades was a dangerous and tragic experiment that resulted in irreversible brain damage to a significant percentage of the American population?
