My Pillow auctions equipment

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has accused major retailers of being terrified of cancel culture after revealing his company has lost a staggering $100 million since Walmart and Bed Bath & Beyond pulled his products over his false election claims.

The polarizing MAGA supporter told Dailymail.com in a phone interview that MyPillow made $110 million a year in gross sales prior to being cancelled but now makes only about $5 million - a whopping 95% drop.

had to be super special just like the guy he self-servingly "promoted" and fawned over. I know ... I have a sibling who shelled out big bucks for his crappy product. They were suckers and know it. BB&B and Wall-Mart dropped him because his products are no longer selling, not because they have a conscience.

A response was, "I wouldn't give any money to that turd!" But they were informed that the moeny would go to his creditors, not him.

I was almost tempted - they are selling industrial Juki machines for under $500 - but they won't ship them very far from his factory, maybe a state or two away. Plus, I really don't need another sewing machine.

I rarely watch news stations anymore, so it must have been Peacock, Paramount, or one of the other streamers.
