SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, on the final day of his
"cyber symposium," remained unable to produce any tangible evidence of
widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. He attempted to deflect blame
for his failed event onto supposed antifa activists — or, actually,
"antifa things" — who were nowhere to be seen in this Great Plains city of
177,000 residents.

The pillow tycoon, alongside self-proclaimed "information warfare"
specialist Col. Phil Waldron, took to the main stage early Thursday to
decry the invisible opposition force he claims has hijacked this event,
which he has promised for months would offer "absolute proof" that the
election was stolen from Donald Trump.

"We've got antifa things, or people that have infiltrated, they're telling
me this morning," Lindell said. "I just want everyone to know all the evil
that's out there. I'm OK. It hurts a little bit."

"This is where our country's gone," Lindell continued. "You take away the
free speech. So they go after me. And they're going, 'Well, we try and
crush his company and take everything from him.' And then they go after
[me] physically."

It's not clear in what sense Lindell believes he has been deprived of free
speech, which he continues to exercise vigorously. He went on to say he
now has a team of bodyguards protecting him, claiming that he was
"attacked" late on Wednesday night outside his Sioux Falls hotel. He did
not provide details, and so far the alleged incident has not been
independently verified.

"Now I've got to go around with a bodyguard," Lindell said. "And I don't
like bodyguards. I like to have American freedom to drive around, to do
what I want, to not worry, to be able to take pictures with people."

The purported presence of antifa has been the subject of many rumors among
organizers and attendees of Lindell's "cyber symposium," although no such
radical infiltrators have been visible at any point. A security guard at
the Lindell event, asked by Salon on Tuesday afternoon about the abundance
of security checkpoints, said there was concern over "guns" and "antifa"
making it into the gathering.

On Thursday morning, Waldron claimed that "really radical folks outside
[are] trying to penetrate" the event. No anti-fascist activists were
visible outside the auditorium unless one counts the three people singing
gospel numbers.

Instead of "antifa" being outside, merely three people were preaching deep
in singing gospel songs.

On Wednesday night, the Washington Times reported that Josh Merritt, one
of Lindell's supposed election fraud experts, described Lindell's data as
a "turd" that the cyber team was asked to polish "into a diamond." As of
Thursday afternoon, Lindell had not released the "packet captures" (PCAPs)
from the 2020 election that he had long promised, or any other hard data
to support his claims of systematic fraud.
