Transcript
00:00:00.000
Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Great America Show.
00:00:10.380
If you don't support his cabinet picks, you might not be there in 2026 or when you're
00:00:17.660
On the docket this week, Tulsi Gabbard, who's up for director of national intelligence,
00:00:21.340
RFK Jr. for HHS, and of course, Kash Patel for the director of the FBI.
00:00:26.760
Kennedy has a hearing before the Senate on Wednesday.
00:00:32.180
A senior White House official telling NBC News it's pass-fail.
00:00:38.800
Senate needs to advise and consent, not advise and adjust.
00:00:42.640
Now, there's rhino senators all over the place.
1.00
00:00:44.620
The recent nomination of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth passed on a 50-50 majority, with
00:00:50.020
of course, J.D. Vance making it inconvenient for him to go down there and cast the tie-winning
00:00:55.100
This was, of course, due to the defections of none other than Senator Froghorn Leghorn,
00:00:59.840
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Susan Collins of Maine.
00:01:09.300
Now, it's the same trifecta of rhinos who are threatening to sink Tulsi Gabbard's nomination
00:01:13.520
with maybe the addition of Senators John Curtis of Utah.
00:01:19.720
I don't know what goes on there, but you guys need to get it together.
00:01:22.600
Lindsey Graham, also known as Lady G of South Carolina, Tom Tillis of North Carolina, John
00:01:28.340
Thune, the newly elected Senate Majority Leader of South Dakota, all have indicated they're
00:01:33.260
reluctant to confirm Gabbard, a two-tour combat veteran.
00:01:36.360
We expect repercussions to come if these rhinos decide they want to try to start tanking the
00:01:46.620
I fully expect everyone to pass the Senate nomination process.
00:01:52.100
And border czar Tom Holman, perhaps the hardest-working man in America, has declared war on the terrorist
00:01:59.520
It was a firefight involving Border Patrol agents.
00:02:02.780
Tom Holman, perhaps, like I said, the hardest-working man of the Trump administration, getting to
00:02:13.720
We're just eight days into this administration.
00:02:20.260
You had the fight between the president of Columbia and President Trump.
00:02:25.480
And President Trump, announcing his administration, has ordered a sweeping freeze on all federal
00:02:34.000
This initiative reflects President Trump's unwavering commitment to fiscal responsibility
00:02:37.840
and his dedication to eliminating wasteful spending.
00:02:41.440
And we know in this government, there's far too much of it.
00:02:47.400
He's the founder of MyPillow, founder and CEO of MyPillow.
00:02:50.280
He's also the founder and CEO of the Lindell Recovery Network.
00:02:53.660
Mike, it's great to have you back with us on the show.
00:02:55.980
I haven't spoken to you since Donald Trump won that decisive election on November 5th.
00:03:02.780
And it seems we're getting more done in this last seven to eight days, nine days, than we
00:03:08.440
did in the last four years, whether it be this border that we're finally getting under
00:03:12.000
control, whether it be Donald Trump replacing and restructuring the IRS, those 87,000 agents
00:03:20.080
that the Biden administration hired, maybe sending them down to the border or firing them.
00:03:26.800
Your thoughts as we look at this first week now of Donald Trump being back in the White
00:03:32.380
Well, it's even more than I could ever imagine.
00:03:34.460
If you'd have told me a couple, three weeks ago, all to be done.
00:03:39.740
And, you know, I would have said this is impossible that you can't get that much done.
00:03:45.080
But, you know, part of that is he learned so much from the last eight years, right?
00:03:53.040
So all this was very well planned out, well prepared for.
00:03:57.820
He put people in place and just takes out each thing as a problem solution, problem solution,
00:04:06.980
And you got, I mean, and then you've got God's hand and all this and they combine and it's
00:04:13.280
And it's really cool, John, that I talk to people and, you know, that before you wouldn't
00:04:26.900
The only one, even the media can't get away with it.
00:04:29.060
As you see our vice president going, you know, with the Margaret comment, you know, I don't
00:04:35.520
But when I look at, you know, the, just like, I think it's 56 or 58%, I can't even be fact
00:04:46.200
checked anymore because the fact checkers got fired.
00:04:49.140
But at somewhere 56, 58% of the people, of all people polled, say, we got to get rid of
00:04:56.260
We got to get them back over the border, get them out of here.
1.00
00:05:00.620
That's, you know, everybody, and part of that is everybody got to live both the good and
00:05:12.960
Here's four years with whatever was in there illegally.
00:05:15.700
I say illegally because they never won the 2020 election.
00:05:19.520
But, yeah, so it's, everything that happened was actually God's perfect timing.
00:05:30.620
It's funny, you said there's no more fact checkers.
00:05:32.820
Last time we'd spoken, I think we made it on Jimmy Kimmel somewhere.
00:05:36.940
They said Mike Gundel needs to be fact checked.
00:05:40.020
So let's see if Jimmy Kimmel's watching and has a little meltdown about you saying that.
00:05:45.120
But, you know, it seems like it's a new dawn and it's a new day in this country.
00:05:51.740
Across the board, every aspect of the government, Donald Trump seems to be, have a grapple on what's going on.
00:06:02.540
Just this week, we saw him in North Carolina and we saw him over in California.
00:06:10.420
He had Karen fast at the table with him, Gavin Newsom.
00:06:14.080
And he basically called all these people out for their lies.
00:06:17.860
The thing that made no sense to me is he's over in North Carolina, no issues, right?
00:06:22.540
Sends the Army Corps of Engineers in there the next day, right?
00:06:28.440
Sends the Army Corps of Engineers in there to start rebuilding, start cleaning up some debris,
00:06:32.300
getting bridges and roads back together so these people can restart their lives.
00:06:38.040
And it makes you wonder, Mike, what took the Biden administration a month, two months to take care of these people?
00:06:45.180
But then you go look and I say to myself, OK, maybe it's a red issue.
00:06:48.260
Maybe they want to help them because it's a red issue.
00:06:50.560
But then you go and look over in California and you've got that idiot Karen Bass and you've got Gavin Newsom.
00:06:56.240
And they're not letting these people back in their house for at least a month.
00:06:59.120
Now, it makes zero sense because in most of these places, the fires are out.
00:07:10.700
President Trump comes in and sits at this roundtable and says, no, these people need to be back in their homes, not in a week, in just a few days.
00:07:18.060
And Karen Bass, the mayor of L.A., somehow in the matter of 24 hours, flips the script.
00:07:23.820
And these people are allowed to go back in their houses.
00:07:31.380
What's behind this blatant corruption or inefficiency?
00:07:35.540
Well, it's their it's their whole belief system, too.
00:07:38.860
I'm from, you know, Minnesota, where all this bureaucracy and all this garbage of, you know, if Donald Trump had not went to California and put her on the spot, she put her on the spot.
00:07:51.000
She had to say, oh, no, you can go back into your land, your own land.
00:07:55.500
I mean, here's a state where they're not arresting people for smoking crack cocaine in the streets or whatever, or robbing convenience stores if you steal under a thousand dollars or whatever it is.
00:08:07.960
I mean, but yet you're telling people, what are you going to do to me if I don't go back on my property?
00:08:15.500
And Donald Trump says, our great real president, he says, safety, they're not safe now.
00:08:21.480
It was like he and the difference is here's the difference that we're seeing is the media is covering that.
00:08:28.980
Even Fox News covering stuff, you know, finally with Donald Trump and by putting her on the spot and you've got all the other stations, too.
00:08:39.120
They know that they if they don't show these things, you know, they're you know, I'm sure they're going, you know, boy, we don't want to show what common sense this is rather not just Donald Trump, but now this new common sense party.
00:08:57.400
If you notice, though, he's got just a complete calm demeanor.
00:09:09.120
Here's, you know, like put her on the spot.
1.00
00:09:12.480
If everybody watches it, I think a week's too long.
00:09:16.380
You know, he's seeing people that this was the biggest request there.
00:09:19.340
Had he not gone there, some of them said they were told 18 months, 18 months they're going to start cleaning up.
00:09:30.420
You know, I just can't see how they could even hold people.
00:09:41.140
But they've been brainwashed by this party, this, you call it the Democrat Party.
00:09:49.320
That, oh, you know, this is, you know, we got to save this over here.
00:09:59.420
He said, hey, take away the regulations on the rebuilding.
00:10:03.200
If they want to make it bigger and beautiful, let them go out more than they had.
00:10:07.860
You know, don't lock this in and go there with measuring tapes and say, you know, all these crazy things that were put into effect.
00:10:15.760
And not just California, Minnesota, all these places, these big Democrat-controlled cities that none of this stuff works.
00:10:28.080
Everything they have left now is hope that Donald Trump brought them there and common sense.
00:10:37.480
I really think it's a lot because the media is showing this.
00:10:41.360
And he is so smart, our great president, that he knows she got put right on the spot.
00:10:49.040
Well, weeks too long, oh, no, they can go on their properties now.
00:10:56.460
We had a mayor that actually said, you know, you can go do this.
00:11:00.320
I mean, I'll bet you they were just celebrating in L.A. going, are you kidding me?
00:11:08.080
You know, I was I spent some time over on the West Coast over the last week or so, and I was talking to a couple I met in Vegas about they're from California.
00:11:19.500
And I started talking to them about the wildfires.
00:11:22.240
And I wanted to gauge if they were Republican or Democrat without asking.
00:11:26.460
You know, we started talking and a buddy of mine says to them, you know, if we didn't give Ukraine a billion dollars, we could, you know, rebuild California.
00:11:33.460
And they sat there and they said, well, a billion dollars wouldn't have mattered.
00:11:37.120
You know, you could give them the money to Ukraine and we could have still rebuilt it.
00:11:41.300
So I knew right then and there that their mindset was that these people were out.
00:11:44.400
Then I mentioned the seven hundred seventy dollars that the federal government has given these Californians.
00:11:53.360
Most of these houses in the Pacific Palisades are up upwards of two to three million dollars.
00:11:57.460
So seven hundred seventy dollars and I start arguing with these people and they're saying, well, the water can't get up there.
00:12:05.460
And I'm saying, well, you believe we put a man on the moon, right?
00:12:08.720
OK, if we put a man on the moon some some time ago, you're telling me that we can't pump water up into the hills.
00:12:15.400
We have the most sophisticated some of the most sophisticated military systems in the in the world.
00:12:19.760
You're telling me we can't pump water up into the Pacific Palisades.
00:12:22.660
Right. To me, it's this mindset of these people.
00:12:25.560
And I often ask myself and the guests on the show, when are you going to wake up?
00:12:30.420
When are the people going to wake up and stop voting in these narcissistic psychopaths who don't care about you?
00:12:38.540
Karen Bass doesn't care if you're dead, if your house is burned.
0.99
00:12:41.340
She doesn't care, you know, if your dog is saved.
00:12:48.460
And the guy was out locking people down during covid as he's out in French laundry in Napa Valley having dinner.
00:12:54.600
I mean, what is it going to take, Mike, for these people, these left?
00:13:02.140
But what is it going to take for them to wake up if this California wildfire situation did not wake them up?
00:13:12.120
You know, you've got this bucket, the common sense bucket.
00:13:15.580
And I was telling the president this a long time ago, people are pouring in, sir, over the last four years.
00:13:20.400
I said, the more things they see, it's opening people's eyes.
00:13:26.080
You know, yes, there's some that will never wake up.
00:13:29.700
But as we keep pulling from people into this bucket of common sense, and it's going to happen more and more every day because they're not going to have the media to keep brainwashing them
00:13:40.520
because it's too late to close the gate, the cows are out of the barn.
00:13:44.540
If you did, now I'm going to segue into what I stand for, and that's securing our elections, getting to paper ballots, hand counted, same-day voting, voter ID.
00:14:00.800
Now, if we had a secure, and our real president said this, if we had a real election without machines, a secure election, it's overwhelming.
00:14:13.320
It's 70% now, I believe, red out there, easy.
0.98
00:14:16.520
You have places that are blue, that are purple.
00:14:22.660
You go to places like Arkansas and Alabama and South Dakota, these places, that they've kept the numbers down.
00:14:31.820
And so people have woke up, and I think what's going to happen, you know, you have the friends, like I said, that aren't going to be – yeah, you say, what's it going to take?
00:14:43.000
It's going to keep taking things like these to pull everybody.
00:14:45.920
But you're getting people over here that are seeing now.
00:14:48.800
They're hearing it from people that were over there.
00:14:51.100
They need to hear it from their own people that were there, brainwashed with them and get, hey, I've seen the light.
00:15:01.180
I mean, you may never have a Democrat or even the old Republican.
00:15:15.240
I mean, this is what – it's just uniting, uniting people.
00:15:18.340
Once you're in this bucket, once you see the light, it's over.
00:15:22.020
You're going to be in that bucket going, wow, that all makes sense.
00:15:27.720
But the hardest part for me is, and I try to do it every single day, is to bring people into that bucket.
00:15:32.840
Like I said, I'm over in the West Coast, and I'm skiing in an area, Mike, Donald Trump lost 75-25.
00:15:38.560
He got absolutely annihilated in this San Miguel County, Colorado.
00:15:43.080
So I made it a point to wear my Trump hat out on the ski slopes every single day.
00:15:47.720
And the looks I was getting from people, Mike, maybe three or four people gave me the thumbs up.
00:15:52.040
But there were people walking by telling me it's nice that we have a dictator as a president.
00:15:57.000
And I'm sitting there, and I asked this woman who said he's a dictator.
00:16:06.320
It's the same playbook from 2016 that he's this bad person.
00:16:10.200
But they cannot ever give a justification or a point as to what makes him those things.
00:16:25.500
And, John, this is a spectrum here, okay, of all the people from back then, okay?
00:16:30.500
Now, you had people on the right, but the never-Trumpers, right, the never-Trumpers or whatever, and the people over here that were skeptical.
00:16:42.400
So as this keeps moving over and sliding over, you get people.
00:16:47.500
Back in 2016, on my Facebook, I could put up a picture of me and whoever, and I'd get thousands of likes.
00:16:55.300
I'd put up a picture of me and Donald Trump, and I'd get one like.
00:16:57.940
You'd think I was getting shadow banned on Facebook.
00:17:02.540
Even though they liked Trump, they were afraid to come on board.
00:17:05.980
Now, that ship sailed, and they're all on board.
00:17:08.700
And then as you get into here, like when you were walking down the streets, I do it all the time.
00:17:18.560
The person that came up to you and might have said something to you, he makes sure that there's not people within earshot because he's a coward.
00:17:27.440
He used to say it right in front of everybody, and they're going, yeah, yeah, yeah, getting these people that didn't really agree with him, but now they've moved away, so he's all alone.
00:17:36.520
That person is alone, and they're going to continue to be alone.
00:17:40.440
Then you have this group over here that have jumped in and said, you know what, I'm not going to speak out for Donald Trump, but I'm all for this.
00:17:48.660
So you see how this is shifting, and pretty soon it's all united, and you have this fringe over here that's not going to change.
00:17:56.860
And for those to change, the media would have to go the other way and start saying the truth to these people over here and going, hey, we were wrong.
00:18:09.320
We were like the Facebook fact checkers that covered up the truth every single day.
00:18:14.560
You know, I'm fine with that, the silent majority of folks.
00:18:17.940
Not everybody, Mike, can be as vocal as you and I.
00:18:21.140
I understand there's repercussions that people have to deal with for supporting Donald Trump.
00:18:31.680
But I'm fine with those folks who have to stay silent because they have these good jobs in Wall Street.
00:18:36.580
They have these good jobs where they have to be, and they support him behind the scenes.
00:18:44.280
Or if you're the Democrats, it's three, four votes, one person.
00:18:51.860
We're talking with the great Mike Lindell of MyPillow.
00:18:54.340
When we return, I want to talk about the media and the accountability.
00:19:01.060
We have someone who may be leaving a very big news network.
00:19:06.080
We have some news to break on the other side of this break.
00:19:15.460
I had tried every pillow out there and nothing worked.
00:19:18.160
I'd flip-flop all night, use my arm for support, and fall asleep.
00:19:22.240
Or I'd wake up with a sore neck or maybe a headache.
00:19:24.960
Well, quality sleep comes from keeping your neck straight at night.
00:19:28.660
You have to fill in that space between your head and your bed.
00:19:34.220
MyPillow's patented fill adjusts to your exact individual needs.
00:19:38.500
And it doesn't matter if you sleep on your back, stomach, side, or any combination of all three.
00:19:42.940
When I got MyPillow, I'm asleep almost immediately.
00:19:47.820
I stay asleep at night, and I wake up more well-rested in the morning.
00:19:51.840
So go to MyPillow.com or call the number on your screen.
00:19:55.380
Use your promo code to get Classic King MyPillows for only $19.98.
00:20:17.020
And right before we went to break there, I promised we had some news to you, news to give to you.
00:20:22.680
This is some reporting from Oliver Darcy, who left CNN to start his own news organization called Status News.
00:20:29.840
Darcy is reporting that Jim Acosta, within a matter of days or weeks, is out at CNN.
00:20:35.720
This came after CNN threatened to move Acosta to 2 a.m., midnight or 2 a.m. for a showtime.
00:20:45.520
And there's nobody watching CNN during the day.
00:20:47.740
So what can you imagine is happening at midnight, 2 a.m.?
00:20:51.340
The only place, by the way, I ever see CNN on, as I travel a lot, is in the airports.
00:20:57.200
And I think that's where they're getting their ratings.
00:20:58.720
But this might be, Mike, a step in the right direction.
00:21:02.020
This is a man with severe Trump derangement syndrome, a man who cannot fathom truth and facts.
00:21:06.580
But I think if there's a place for Jim Acosta to go, it's to go work with Adam Schiff, because they have the very same mindset of lying and deceitfulness.
00:21:26.280
They attacked and attacked when places like Fox News and Newsmax went silent and wouldn't talk about the 2020 election.
00:21:36.960
They, by those guys attacking and attacking, and our voices kept on saying, hey, we've got problems.
00:21:43.580
And if they didn't attack, if they're just silent, it's a bad deal.
00:21:47.640
That's when I formed Lindell TV, by the way, you know, back then in the spring of 21.
00:21:53.460
And I want to talk about Jim Acosta in particular.
00:21:57.300
When I was seen at the White House, a very famous picture of me on the phone, and all the media comes over the hill, and they had papers I was given from some lawyers.
00:22:08.020
And I remember I called a quick call because I have all the left media on my phone, all of them, every single reporter.
00:22:17.120
And I'm on the phone with one telling him what really was the story from that famous White House picture.
00:22:23.800
This is the day it happened, within minutes of what had happened.
00:22:26.540
And the next one that beamed in, Jim Acosta, and I go, he goes, Mike, Mike, Mike, you're at the White House, blah, blah, blah.
00:22:39.960
Okay, now, and as we, as I actually became really kind of strange friends with all these guys, you know, and now Jim, the last time he called me was, basically, when these guys call me, I filibust them.
00:22:56.860
And I remember Jim, I'm sitting in a hallway at some big event, and he's going, Mike, Mike.
00:23:00.860
I said, Jim, I'm trying to secure our elections and save your country so you have a job.
00:23:06.960
And Jim goes, oh, you got it all figured out, huh?
00:23:08.760
And I go, and he goes, well, and then he said his thing, and he goes, and I always know where their hit job's coming from, what they're going to do.
00:23:15.280
And Jim tries to, you know, come from a different angle.
00:23:20.900
So I start telling him, he goes, Mike, I know you're busy.
00:23:26.320
If you hang up the phone, you can lose my number.
00:23:28.800
So none of these guys, if they call me, they're going to get an earful.
00:23:33.260
And Jim, he was the one that attacked me when I went in the Rose Garden and spoke out in the spring of 20, right before the China virus from the Rose Garden.
0.95
00:23:47.300
Jim was one of the, you know, one of the interviews.
00:23:54.480
And then you got the pillow guy talking about God from the Rose Garden.
00:23:59.360
At least he acknowledged that there was a God, right?
00:24:03.400
But they, and then I went on, by the way, then I went on Lou's show.
00:24:06.700
That's the first time I went on Lou's show back then.
00:24:11.320
I go, Lou, they're all just evil, just pure evil.
00:24:13.820
And I'll remember him belly laughing on his show.
00:24:16.080
So, but I'm going to, you know, and Jim hasn't called in a long, long time.
00:24:21.200
And some of them, you know, and some, this is what I'm sitting here missing.
00:24:25.420
I go, wow, they're not even attacking me right now.
00:24:28.100
And I do need to keep getting the word out that we've got to get to paper ballots, hand counted.
00:24:34.960
And they know that just by bashing, even their own audience sees all the good things that are happening now.
00:24:42.900
And then, and all the bad things they went through in four years.
00:24:53.220
You know, I would like to have Jim over at my Vindale TV.
00:24:57.440
I would hire him in a heartbeat just for comedy, just for people to have.
00:25:00.880
Can you imagine having a, having him there going, you know.
00:25:06.460
Donald Trump, you know, it would just be, it would be, you know, it would be like, you know, a comedy.
00:25:12.360
I never thought I'd see a day where the attacks on you would relent.
00:25:16.500
But it seems like, you know, I haven't even thought about it.
00:25:18.760
But it seems like over the last two months or so, the attacks on you have sort of, I'm not going to say stopped because they definitely haven't stopped you.
00:25:26.400
You know, you're being attacked from every angle for these last two months from Colorado secretaries of state to the federal government.
00:25:33.780
To this, but it seems like they've maybe relented on you a little bit.
00:25:38.320
But the way I see it as Mike is they have so much to deal with right now.
00:25:41.600
These left mainstream media, I mean, every mainstream media outlets left us, but they have so much to deal with.
00:25:47.960
And speaking of Jim Acosta, the last time I watched Jim was earlier this week.
00:25:51.600
He was on with Tim Burchett of Tennessee, who's just a Tim Burchett is the congressman from Tennessee is probably one of the nicest, most likable people you'll ever meet.
00:26:00.460
He's nice to everybody left, right, doesn't matter what you are.
00:26:04.040
And Acosta gets him on there and tries to steamroll him.
00:26:06.200
And I've never seen Tim get angry, but he had had enough with him.
00:26:14.220
So I actually want to get your thoughts on this as we segue into this.
00:26:17.060
The January 6th, I often get asked, should everybody have been pardoned?
00:26:20.900
Should the nonviolent people have been pardoned?
00:26:22.780
Should the people who have been violent not been pardoned?
00:26:25.880
And the way I look at it, Mike, is the DOJ overcharged probably everybody.
00:26:34.280
So how do you differentiate who actually did violent things and who didn't?
00:26:39.960
If you opened a door, maybe they said you forcefully entered the building.
00:26:43.400
That can be considered a violent protester, okay?
00:26:51.300
We know we had 30-something government informants that day.
00:26:58.880
Because as far as I'm concerned, it's against every FBI policy to partake in any crimes as a federal informant.
00:27:06.760
So if you did do destruction there or you did incite violence or incite an insurrection, you're a criminal.
00:27:13.620
What's your thoughts on President Trump's pardons?
00:27:16.500
Well, first, I'm going to unpack what you first said about the attacks on me.
00:27:19.780
They're actually higher than now than they've ever been.
00:27:24.140
Keith Ellison is attacking my Lindell Recovery Network.
00:27:28.840
It's massively attacking me for different things.
00:27:32.680
And going back to 20 and 21, the years that I would fight, you know, with the stolen election.
00:27:42.200
And MyPill is the most attacked company in history.
00:27:46.740
They're attacking me because I want to get rid of the voting machines and go to paper ballots, hand counted.
00:27:52.900
They're going to be, if we can, everyone else going, well, most people, our great President Donald Trump's in, it's over.
00:28:02.720
They stole four senators minimum in this last election and at least nine congressmen.
00:28:07.600
We've got to secure our elections before the midterms.
00:28:11.500
As far as the January 6th, yeah, complete pardon across the board.
00:28:15.880
Even if they did, I know some that did, that did fight back, that did break.
00:28:20.760
They've been in prison for four years without even, you know, this is craziness.
00:28:25.460
When you've got something, you know, criminals, they've let out, they've done stuff that they just let off the hook.
00:28:31.020
Where do you draw the line and be subjective on each one?
00:28:39.820
And, you know, the way I see it is, you know, unless you went back in and said, well, this one's did this.
00:28:51.740
And let's say you say, okay, this one's did this.
00:28:55.180
And you segregate it out and say, well, gee, the punishment should be, it should have been two years or he's already done four.
00:29:03.940
And I'm sure they had a team go through them all and say, you know what?
00:29:08.860
It's just, pardon them, put this behind us for what it was.
00:29:15.300
You remember, John, I have said the two most important days, I believe, in our country's history will be January 7th and 8th of 21.
00:29:24.500
The day after the January 6th, the reason is, is everyone on the, when you woke up on January 7th, 1.2 million Americans are de-platformed because of, if you talked about the election, if you talked down about Jesus Christ or if you talked against the vaccine, it was like they saved it all up.
00:29:43.160
De-platformed everybody off, sucker bucks, Facebook, Jack Dorsey's corrupt Twitter, YouTube, Vimeo, everything.
00:29:58.800
They wouldn't even think about saying anything now about what really went on on January 6th.
00:30:04.580
Yeah, it was a very tragic day for our country.
00:30:07.960
And you look back, all these things had to happen to get to where we're at.
00:30:16.120
A lot of those people that were in there, I know they ended up being saved, became born-again Christians, and a lot of them in there, their families and stuff looking at the outside.
00:30:24.260
And the nonsensical, there's many people on the left that were, you know, the brainwurst going, hey, this is wrong.
00:30:30.860
You know, when the truth started coming out about what really went on, this is wrong.
00:30:34.540
You know, this is a friend of mine, and he just went down there in a peaceful rally.
00:30:39.340
John, I spoke at the Supreme Court out in front.
00:30:50.420
There were six, count them, six guards in front of the Supreme Court, spread out about 40 yards apiece.
00:31:02.540
And that's, and so they, so yeah, across the board.
00:31:08.060
I can deal with a few people doing the crime and paying the price.
00:31:12.480
I mean, like you said, some of them sat in jail for two, three years.
00:31:20.100
There was no, they didn't burn down the Capitol, Mike.
00:31:25.520
We saw, Mike, the folks in there were telling everybody, do not damage this place.
00:31:36.180
Okay, maybe there were some people who broke windows.
00:31:47.740
Because if that's the crime that I want to go back and next segment, we're going to talk
00:31:53.060
Because I know it's something you and I believed in.
00:31:56.200
But if that's fine, if you want, if that's the crime, four years in jail for breaking a window,
00:32:01.320
let's go back and relitigate what happened in Minnesota.
00:32:04.380
Why don't we go back and relitigate in 2020 when they burned down police stations, when they
00:32:09.540
burned down car, car lots, when they tried to ruin Kyle Rittenhouse's life.
00:32:14.480
Let's go back and relitigate that if you want to do that.
00:32:18.400
How about the other criminal acts that the Biden administration has allowed to happen?
00:32:23.980
How about the border invasion that they've allowed to happen?
00:32:27.740
The millions and millions and millions of people that they've allowed to flow into this
00:32:37.060
They used a Sunday as a number, as a study number, less than 600 people illegally crossed
00:32:43.180
into the U.S. or Mexico on Sunday night, a stunningly low number since Donald Trump took
00:32:48.440
Sources tell Fox News that not a single one of the nine sectors, border sectors, received
00:32:56.160
And that number for daily encounters only reached 582 in total.
00:33:00.200
The Del Rio sector, which is the same sector that was the same, 4,000 crossings per day, Mike,
00:33:05.560
4,000 a day in the height of the border crisis in 2023, only received, you ready for this,
00:33:13.080
Now, Donald Trump doesn't have any special new tools.
00:33:16.620
He doesn't have anything that Joe Biden didn't have.
00:33:25.440
He has the same help that Greg Abbott afforded Joe Biden.
00:33:29.260
So why is there border crossings that are down hundreds of percent with the same tools
00:33:37.420
Well, I think, you know, I think a lot of it, you know, you mentioned the governor, Greg
00:33:43.220
And, you know, as you know, there was a time where they, you know, in Texas, everybody's
00:33:51.080
And there's other politicians, too, all across our country, anyone that was a border state,
00:33:56.220
why didn't they do everything they could have done or at least pushed it in the media as
00:34:02.020
Well, the media would cover that part out, number one.
00:34:08.360
So they're looking at, you know, I've got to get, you know, elected.
00:34:11.280
I got to stay in this space here instead of going over here and doing what's 100% common
00:34:17.920
So these, one of the things, the phenomenon of our great president, Donald Trump, is people
00:34:27.700
It's him alone going, hey, this is common sense.
00:34:32.080
You don't say, just like our great vice president said, I don't care, Margaret.
00:34:45.840
And these, you know, these governors and these, these politicians, I think now that
00:34:54.440
they're all, you know, they're going forward with no fear now and jumping on and helping
00:34:59.400
Donald Trump where he didn't get the help in his first term.
00:35:02.780
And he certainly was ignored the last four years.
00:35:08.440
As we can say, the election was told, the election was told.
00:35:12.020
You know how many times he was told by people, just give up on that.
00:35:23.240
And, and so I really believe it's just like now judges are going to get, who wants to
00:35:28.360
be the first judge ever to say, I'll get it through another thing in there.
00:35:31.380
They say, Hey, let's get rid of the electronic voting.
00:35:34.880
Cause I want to, I want to take a segment on that to talk about that.
00:35:37.680
We'll come right back with the great Mike Lindell.
00:35:42.160
This past year has been one of the hardest in my pillows history.
00:35:45.780
It's because of you that we're making it through my employees.
00:35:49.460
I want to thank you for your continued support by extending our wholesale prices on classic
00:35:58.800
I can't believe I'm even saying that only 1498, but it gets even better.
00:36:03.800
Upgrade to a queen size, my pillow for just 1898 King size, only a dollar more.
00:36:09.940
Get my body pillows, 2998 and multi-use my pillows for only 998.
00:36:15.860
So go to my pillow.com or call the number on your screen.
00:36:19.200
Use your promo code to take advantage of these wholesale prices, including my standard size,
00:36:24.320
my pillow, originally 4998, not only 1498 Queens, 1898 Kings, only a dollar more.
00:36:32.160
Not only that, order $75 or more ship, absolutely free.
00:36:46.600
Mike, real quick before we turn to election integrity, it's something that's stuck in my
00:36:51.260
head since this last segment about Keith Ellison going after the Lindell Recovery Network,
00:36:55.900
your network, your profit, your charity that you've started for addicts, recovering addicts.
00:37:06.240
People don't realize you donate a vast amount of the money that you make each and every year.
00:37:11.160
I watched you on, I don't remember what it was.
00:37:12.960
It was Jimmy Kimmel or something where he said, Mike, you make hundreds of millions of dollars
00:37:16.960
and this, and you looked at him simply and you said, I donate it all.
00:37:20.760
And so the people who don't know you, you know, you're a pretty regular guy.
00:37:24.260
You're not walking around wearing Gucci shoes and, you know, Gucci hats and stuff like that.
00:37:29.460
And it's truly sad to see that these people are just such scum.
00:37:33.060
That they'd go after something that in the times in America, especially the recovery network
00:37:39.520
you have with the drug problem we have in this country right now as a former addict yourself,
00:37:46.320
These are the same people, Mike, who allow fentanyl to roam their streets and all types of drugs
00:37:54.360
Yet they come after you for sitting on the outside, donating your own money, your own time
00:38:00.360
to try to help these people because you know what it was like to live that life.
00:38:04.780
So I just had to get that off my chest because it's truly disgusting.
00:38:09.680
I have the list, the LindellRecoveryNetwork.org, everybody.
00:38:15.580
If you guys want it, if anybody wants to donate, you can donate.
00:38:18.400
I did it all myself before, right now, before it was, I put it all and I built the site.
00:38:24.320
We put millions into it over the last, I think it's been up for seven, eight years now,
00:38:30.920
Millions have been saved by it and helped and it's free.
00:38:35.100
And for Keith Ellison, the Attorney General of Minnesota to come and attack,
00:38:39.480
this just happened this week again, where he piled on.
00:38:44.560
First, he went after the year 2020 and 2021, and then now he's piled it on.
00:38:52.560
You know, I basically have told me, you know, you're out of your mind.
00:38:55.080
How can you do anything wrong, John, when all the money came from me, right?
00:39:01.160
What are you looking at this C3 for to say, what?
00:39:05.800
Did Mike Lindell take some money and use it for his own purposes?
00:39:16.900
As a founder and the CEO of a 501c3, you're entitled to use expense accounts,
00:39:29.840
And it's not like you're running some sort of crazy business.
00:39:40.260
Your tax returns are probably more sophisticated than mine, but far less sophisticated than the tax returns of J.P. Morgan or Bank of America.
00:39:48.900
So, you know, if there's any wrongdoing there, it's probably very easy to catch.
00:39:54.940
There's far too many bad actors out there who are actually cheating our tax systems that they should worry about rather than going after you.
00:40:01.720
But hopefully with Donald Trump in town, these attacks will stop because it's all politically motivated.
00:40:11.240
I'm just telling you, the reason everyone asks yourself, why aren't they stopping with Mike Lindell or MyPillow?
00:40:22.020
Get out of the voting machines and go to paper ballots in our country like 132 other countries have done around the world.
00:40:32.840
Let's turn to first the way forward, and then I want to go backwards and talk about 2020 and the re-litigation of that.
00:40:42.880
You had mentioned earlier in the show that there were races that were probably stolen, and I would agree with you on that.
1.00
00:40:48.640
You look at the races out in California, and these people just relented, a lot of them rhinos.
1.00
00:40:57.340
I think it was Michelle Steele or Valido in California.
00:41:00.840
Mike, they were up by like the Republicans are up by like 1,500 votes.
00:41:07.920
10 votes one day, 20 votes one day, 60 votes one day.
00:41:10.540
And, Mike, it got down to like a margin of a half percent, a quarter of a percent.
00:41:18.700
And the Republicans sat there, and they said, okay, that's fine.
00:41:26.480
I don't care if they lost that election, if the election was stolen from them.
00:41:29.860
Because if they didn't have the guts to fight for it, they shouldn't have been there in the first place.
00:41:34.260
But it shouldn't happen to people because there are going to be people who are going to fight back.
00:41:39.200
And we know what happens to the people who fight back against stolen elections in this country, don't we, Mike?
00:41:46.480
I have over 300,000 people on the ground with the cause of America.
00:41:50.540
We have the Election Bureau, the new app, VocalSocial, VOCL.com, everybody.
00:42:05.840
I have a good friend of mine that's pretty high up, so we're coming from the top down.
00:42:10.480
But also, we still have things going on from the bottom up in every single state.
00:42:24.640
It will be a Band-Aid if we don't secure our elections.
00:42:28.680
If you can plug into a computer, you know, right now we should have an overwhelming advantage in the Senate and the House.
00:42:38.300
But when they planned this, I knew that Donald Trump was going to win.
00:42:42.340
They're going, okay, you know, it's going to be too obvious.
00:42:47.140
If I would have told you, John, this summer and said, hey, you know what?
00:42:51.120
I'm going to give you China virus 2.0, nobody would have done the same things we did and fell for that garbage again.
0.98
00:42:58.920
Over the last four years, we've had loud mouths out there putting, hey, we've got to get rid of the machines.
00:43:05.380
Elon Musk got on board this summer with all the data and stuff we had.
00:43:08.700
We've got to get rid of the machines back in June.
00:43:11.180
That was Lew's biggest rallying cry before he passed.
00:43:16.260
He goes all the way back to 2004 and 5 when he said we've got to get rid of them.
00:43:23.120
So if I would have said to the public, or if I was evil, I'll call it evil, the unit party, the deep state globalists, said, hey, let's give them, let's steal the election again from Donald Trump, okay?
00:43:33.440
If they would have done that, I'll tell you what would have happened.
00:43:38.160
It would have been probably a faster route to get rid of the machines because everybody would demand it.
00:43:53.440
Crack them up like coconuts and pan openers, and let's see what's in there.
00:43:56.980
And if they would have done that, there are two things that would have happened.
00:44:00.780
One is it would have been gone, but it would have been the biggest, I'd say, disaster.
00:44:07.940
I wouldn't say it wouldn't have been civil war.
00:44:10.740
You would have had evil and good fighting at a level you've never seen, clashing.
00:44:14.960
So if I was their market, I'll say, you know what?
00:44:21.680
We'll steal some from him to make it look good for the next election, which they did, everybody.
00:44:29.260
And then we're going to take enough of the senators, enough of the House, so that we can
00:44:33.600
win it back in 2020 or 2026, steal it back, okay?
00:44:37.940
And then we'll try and attack all the people that are working on to get rid of the machines.
00:44:43.780
That's why they're still attacking me and many others.
00:44:48.280
And now I'm telling you, we know if you have, I don't have time to explain on your show.
00:44:54.220
We know if you take the computers out of our elections, like 132 countries that abandon,
00:45:00.700
and you do paper ballots, hand counted, like all these other countries, this country is
00:45:13.340
So when you skim a casino, I've said it before, you skim everywhere.
00:45:16.580
Now, you had standouts because those ones you mentioned in California and these other four
00:45:22.200
senators, you know, well, why did it take longer to count their races?
00:45:29.880
It was the one thing that worked this time was when you said too big to rig, and everybody
00:45:37.720
But the left or the unit party did not count on that.
00:45:42.560
So when you had these polls starting coming out, like in North Carolina, all these polls,
00:45:46.540
that the Republicans were voting, outvoting the Democrats in the early voting, now all
00:45:52.500
of a sudden on game day, you're going to say, oh, boy, the Democrats all voted and they
00:45:59.000
You're only going to get away with that once, though, that early voting thing, because they're
00:46:02.660
not going to let that happen again, because now they're going to be, evil's going to be
00:46:06.280
So I say, you know, we are not going to stop my teams.
00:46:13.960
You go back to, I'll just give everyone one example.
00:46:16.600
If everyone remembers in Georgia, there's a case that's been going on for years, for years,
00:46:23.000
the curling case against a crooked Brad Rassenberger, where a guy, Alex Haldeman, a year ago, January,
00:46:31.060
hacked him with a ballpoint pen and switched the whole election in front of the judge.
00:46:39.780
You know, all you have to do is go back and look.
00:46:46.820
I mean, this was like the most simple form of balloting.
00:46:50.020
It's still used in like class elections and stuff like that.
00:46:59.200
I was with you and Lou in Missouri about a year and a half ago for your election summit,
00:47:03.800
and you had unrolled out this new device where you were able to tell what devices were online.
00:47:11.320
If the election machines are not online, then you should have no problem with someone walking into this.
00:47:16.760
Lo and behold, within a day or within a week, Mike, I think it was Kentucky,
00:47:20.440
first wants to come out and ban this thing.
1.00
00:47:22.040
Why are you so nervous about us knowing if your election systems are online?
00:47:29.260
It makes you think, well, what are these people hiding?
00:47:35.600
Your good friend, Kemp, I think is running for the Senate.
00:47:39.500
So I guess it may be a blessing in disguise, Mike, if you put him in a group of 100 people.
00:47:47.340
And we get someone in Georgia who's like an America first person.
00:47:54.720
But, you know, don't let him put one of his people in.
1.00
00:47:57.580
You know, it's a deal Donald Trump's got to make.
00:48:00.180
You want to run for the Senate, I'll endorse you.
00:48:01.580
But we're putting in America first governor because the job of governor is far superior,
00:48:06.540
Mike, as you well know, to a congressman of 435 or a senator of 100.
00:48:12.400
So speaking on that front, those 100 and those 435 have a very important role over these next four years,
00:48:26.800
And one of President Trump's first executive orders, President Trump said it directed his attorney general.
00:48:33.100
Now, Pam Bondi's not in yet, but we expect she will be very shortly.
00:48:37.280
He directed his attorney general to look into everything.
00:48:41.600
Now, do we have confidence in Pam Bondi that she's going to go ahead and look into what needs to be looked at?
00:48:49.600
I've been telling my teams, everyone he's put in, they're on my phone.
00:48:53.840
I became friends with many of them, including Pam Bondi.
00:48:56.880
Just say you've got Governor Kristi Noem overlooking underneath.
1.00
00:49:04.780
I mean, all these things that are in place, like I say, all of tools we didn't have before to be able to get to the finish line.
00:49:12.660
It's not just the 2020 election is a perfect example because the deviations stand out so far.
00:49:19.640
You have more votes than voters in Pennsylvania.
00:49:25.820
OK, and we've all seen the chart, John, where it says, you know, for Biden, 60 some million Democrats voted for Biden in the first election.
00:49:40.040
All of a sudden, Biden, 83 million or 81 million.
00:49:48.040
You can't even steal an election with that many, with 50 million without the use of a computer.
00:49:56.280
You can't create that many fake ballots and people to, hey, let's go vote for Biden and to cheat.
00:50:05.000
And all these people he's put in, including Pam Bondi, that's going to be a high concern, a high priority to secure our elections.
00:50:16.060
Now, people go, well, you got to go back and fight and prosecute those that did it.
00:50:20.100
I've been saying for years, let's melt down the machines and turn them into prison bars.
00:50:25.080
But you guys, I want to say the biggest win we have in my realm here is we broke through the biggest cover up of the biggest crime in history.
00:50:35.780
And it's because of our voice getting so big, including your great show here, John, that you've carried on with the great Lou Dobbs, the great America show.
00:50:46.660
These by our voice never giving up and saying, hey, there's a problem.
00:50:52.000
And and to have that example of the 2020 election, it happens all over the place.
00:50:59.660
But we are able to now have these tools we didn't have before to get to what there's a reason 132 countries have banned electronic voting.
00:51:08.300
There's also over 100 countries that ban early ban early voting and mail-in voting.
00:51:20.880
Check, check, because it meant that they lose their country or don't lose their country.
0.69
00:51:27.960
But we're in a great place with all the tools that are in place.
00:51:31.420
And we've got I look at like we got 18 months to get to get rid of everything and get to the most secure elections in history.
00:51:40.340
We need to be the gold standard, not the worst in the world.
00:51:46.900
And the price we pay, Mike, is hopefully it's far surpasses, you know, everything else at any given moment.
00:52:05.820
These people all are now on their knees begging for forgiveness.
00:52:11.860
And, you know, some people were mad that Trump invited them.
00:52:14.420
I was happy because they all look like such fools.
00:52:20.820
This is a man they were calling Hitler just months ago, Mike.
00:52:24.100
This is a man they were calling a narcissist, a sociopath, a racist, a xenophobe, a misogynist.
00:52:34.060
So you look like the total fool, not Donald Trump.
00:52:47.580
Yeah, I just, like I've said, everybody, we're in times of miracles right now.
00:52:56.220
And all the bad things we went through, there's still going to be bad things.
00:53:03.580
They're sitting back with a new plan, reorganizing.
00:53:06.280
And I'm not talking the Democrat Party, everybody.
00:53:08.940
I'm talking the Uniparty deep state globalists.
00:53:12.180
They're backing off going, now, how do we, what can we do?
00:53:15.640
They absolutely need the tool to steal elections in order to even have a chance anymore.
00:53:22.220
We take away that from them, and we free the world.
00:53:28.180
We can't let this be a band-aid with our great real president.
00:53:31.560
I want everybody, if you can get involved, go to LindellPlan.com.
00:53:35.940
It's all laid out there, and the election bureau, everything, all the stuff we're going to be doing now as we move forward.
00:53:42.560
You know, I'm kind of at the tip of the spear on that, and I have been, and I'm not stopping.
00:53:48.160
And so, I mean, it's a great time in history, everybody.
00:53:57.900
Go get on every social media platform and spread the word.
00:54:06.160
One thing we have now that we didn't have then is they're not suppressing us.
00:54:16.460
And I encourage everybody to just, you know, sound the alarms and sound the truth and sound the great things going on,
00:54:27.560
because you've got people over here that still need to be brought into the bucket.
00:54:31.100
Yeah, God bless you, too, Mike, and all the work you do.
00:54:36.080
He loved and adored you and all the work that you did and sacrifices.
00:54:39.900
And we encourage everyone to head over to MyPillow.com slash John and buy all your MyPillow products, sheets, pillows, slippers, all that good stuff.
00:54:50.280
By the way, I want to tell everyone about your eyes.
