Tracker Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell expands from manufacturing masks to sourcing them after call with Trump Written by Roger Sollenberger / Salon May 7, 2020 Mike Lindell, the founder of the MyPillow Company, has made good on his Rose Garden promise to produce and distribute medical masks to healthcare facilities around the country, a spokeswoman told Salon. But in what would appear to be a previously-unannounced dimension to the operation, Lindell is also apparently “sourcing” masks, the spokeswoman said. Fawning over Trump has its benefits.

This one is weird because Flynn apparently flipped. Mueller wrote a letter asking for leniency due to Flynn's cooperation which was allegedly significant. In fact, he was charged with lesser crimes for that reason so when say oh its a BS charge anyway, it was the result of a plea bargain and he would have faced more severe charges. He plead guilty and there is no doubt he is guilty. He admitted it and its right there in black and white. Trump even tweeted that Flynn was fired for lying. But to Trump and his ilk, Flynn is a patriot because you can lie, cheat & steal as long as its for the right side. This isnt even a pardon, which Trump would have to wear. Its Barr dropping the whole case. Quite something. bustamente 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
