Lawyers representing ‘MyPillow Guy’ Mike Lindell have said that the election denier owes unpaid legal fees and bills running into millions. The withdrawal would leave the conspiracy theorist without legal support in lawsuits where plaintiffs have sought over a billion dollars in damages.
The bed-ding entrepreneur has been the foremost denier of the 2020 elections. He has relentlessly promoted the false claims perpetuated by Donald Trump and asserted that the disgraced former president won the presidential elections in 2020. He is also accused of trying to influence the voting patterns of Americans.
However recent developments suggest that Mike Lindell is in deep financial distress. His legal team has filed to extract themselves from representing him. They have said that millions of dollars in legal fees remain unpaid. The developments would leave Mike Lindell without legal cover. The entrepreneur has said that he doesn’t blame his legal team as they have families to look after.

Mike Lindell continues to work with groups and activists promoting such conspiracy theories. He has also used his MyPillow campaigns to back the Republicans and the conservative media. This includes many media entities that actively promote his wild theories.
