Lindell’s battle with Dominion Voting Systems is just getting started……
A judge has ruled that Dominion’s lawsuit against Lindell can move ahead, and upon receiving the news Lindell was visibly distressed and had to reportedly walk off stage.
It remains to be seen if Dominion will win this lawsuit. It likewise remains to be seen if Lindell will use this opportunity to use legal discovery to bolster his claims against Dominion.
After all, Lindell has thrown around the idea that this is his plan…..
Here’s Lindell’s reaction to the news:

Lindell’s reaction was reported by The Independent:
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was seen hurrying off the stage at his “Cyber Symposium” in Sioux Falls, South Dakota as the news broke that a judge had ruled that the defamation lawsuit against him by Dominion Voting Systems could move ahead.
During a June hearing, Mr Lindell tried to get the suit dismissed, but US District Judge Carl Nichols ruled on Wednesday that the defamation lawsuits against Mr Lindell and pro-Trump lawyers Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani should be allowed to proceed. Dominion is seeking more than a billion dollars in damages from each of the defendants.

Forbes added:
Lindell went on a diatribe against the court ruling at his “cyber symposium” in South Dakota Wednesday after reading news of Nichols’ decision onstage on his phone, claiming the ruling was “really bad for our country” and telling his crowd of supporters, “Your First Amendment rights just got blown out of the water.”
The MyPillow CEO also criticized the judge for issuing his ruling during the election fraud “cyber symposium,” saying the judge “couldn’t even wait until the final day” of the multi-day event to rule.
