6:19Now PlayingMyPillow CEO Mike Lindell had to sit for a deposition in the voting machine defamation lawsuit that he's facing, and the videos were released late last week. The videos of the deposition show that Lindell immediately went off the rails at the very start of the deposition, and things continued to get worse from there. Lindell was insulting, angry, vulgar, and essentially the complete opposite of the lovable "Pillow Guy" persona that he's tried to project for so long. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Videos of Mike Lindell's deposition from a defamation lawsuit filed against him from a Dominion voting Systems employee have been released. And it, uh, well, it certainly shows a different side of the MyPillow guy than, than what he has shown us publicly before because it shows that he is not exactly the lovable buffoon that he has come to be known as. He is, in fact, a calculating, angry vi uh, vicious vitriolic individual. Here is what happened. This is when the deposition started. Lemme show you this clip. This is when the deposition started and the lawyer's just like basically going over introductions and Lindell just flies off the handle like a lunatic. Here's the first clip. Take a look.
Tell us your full name, please.
Michael James Lindell.
Well, good morning, Mr. Lindell. My name is Charlie Kane. We met for the first time about who's paying
You
About four minutes ago. Okay,
Go.
Is that right? What's
That?
Is that right?
Is what was the question
We met for the first time?
Yes. Yes.
Okay. Here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna start slow because the court reporter's trying to take down what you're saying, okay?
Don't sit and scold me already, Mr. I'll do, I'll do whatever I have to do. So I don't you, you're not, you're just a lawyer, you're an ambulance chief and lawyer. So don't start with me. I got all day. I'll take as much time as you want. So let's go. You're not my boss, you're just a lawyer, frivolous lawyer. So go.
Don't start
Scolding me know where this,
Oh, I'm asking questions. I'm not gonna scold you.
Go ahead.
I mean, the lawyer's just like, okay, listen, you know, we're, we're just gonna keep it simple. Not, I'm not gonna try to, you know, throw any gotcha sets. It's gonna be real simple, real light, you know, Hey, and just, you know, verify for the record here, uh, you and I haven't met before, and apparently like those are lindell's trigger words, and he just went from like zero to a hundred in half a second there. But again, Mike Lindell, even before he got into politics, right, he had this image, you know, he'd be on the MyPillow commercials, hugging the pillow, and, oh, I'm just some down hole Minnesota guy with the pillow company and I'm just, you know, like everybody else, you get him behind closed doors. That's not who he is at all. We saw the real Mike Lindell in that video clip right there, a Lindell that most of us have never seen before, and it totally blows that, you know, kinda lovable idiot persona outta the water.
And even to this day when he's out there doing his, you know, frank speech, uh, whatever videos and interviews, he doesn't ever come across, even when he is angry as like super angry and like, oh, I'm gonna get somebody because it's an act. It's all an act. What we just saw in that clip right there is the real Linde. And if you don't believe me, take a look at this clip. When the lawyer decided to ask about some of the complaints his company had received from people claiming their, my pillows were a little bit lumpy, those were legitimate complaints from legitimate real human beings. And Lindell lost it even worse than he did in the first clip. Take a look.
Okay? And I'm not asking about the lumpy pillow calls.
