Mike Lindell
Mike Lindell is the CEO of My Pillow, who is well known for becoming a self-made millionaire from a crack addiction.[1][2] However, he is also a conspiracy theorist, also being known for pushing oleandrin as a cure for COVID-19, and attempts to overturn the United States 2020 presidential election.
In the middle of February 2022, he attempted to provide support to the convoyists by donating 10,000 pillows. His shipment was turned away, because the trucker for the shipment was not fully vaccinated and failed to provide a negative PCR test.[3] Because of his inability to send it by ground, he started a plan to airdrop the pillows instead.[4] The plan never went forward, as the protest was cleared out before the airdrop started, assuming that it wouldn't also be intercepted.
