My Pillow is reportedly being dropped by retailers like Kohl’s and Bed Bath & Beyond after its founder, Mike Lindell, showed up at the White House last week to discuss alleged electoral fraud with President Trump.
Lindell, who was photographed at the White House on Friday holding documents that allegedly contained notes on election-related conspiracy theories, said in an interview with conservative Right Side Broadcasting Network that “two companies have given up” on selling their bedding products.
He did not identify the companies, but said that “they have always been good, not like Target, which is the worst company, the things they did to me”.
“I just spoke to Bed Bath & Beyond. They are dropping my pillow. I just hung up the phone less than five minutes ago. Kohl’s, all these different places, ”said Lindell, according to WCCO, a CBS affiliate in Minnesota, where My Pillow is based. “These [companies], they are afraid, like a Bed Bath & Beyond, they are afraid. They were good partners. In fact, I told them, ‘You guys, come back whenever you want.’ “
In a written statement, a spokesman for Bed Bath & Beyond appeared to signal that MyPillow’s sales were weak and failed to make a connection between his decision and the political dispute.
“As previously announced, we are streamlining our assortment to discontinue a number of underperforming items and brands,” said the spokesman. “This includes the MyPillow product line. Our decisions are based on data, inspired by the customer and are providing substantial growth in our main target categories. “
Kohl’s did not immediately respond to a request for comment. My Pillow also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Nine My Pillow products, including sheets, mattresses and pillows, were listed on the Bed Bath & Beyond website on Tuesday, while Kohl’s lists a My Pillow pillow for $ 80 to $ 90.
Lindell was also criticized by Dominion Voting Systems for publicly claiming that her electronic voting machines were rigged and contributed to the president’s electoral defeat.
In a cease-and-desist letter from Dominion on January 8, the company states: “You falsely accused Dominion of fraud and ‘theft of millions of votes’,” according to the four-page letter sent by Dominion’s lawyers. company. “Your smear campaign against Dominion has been relentless, and you have been leveraging your significant social media followers to inflict maximum damage to Dominion’s good name.”
