Newsmax anchor walks away from Mike Lindell interview after he won't drop fraud claims

A Newsmax host on Tuesday walked off camera in the middle of an interview with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell after the businessman and vocal supporter of former President Trump refused to stop voicing unsupported claims of fraud in the 2020 election.

Anchor Bob Sellers and fellow host Heather Childers attempted to interview Lindell on conservative complaints of "cancel culture" after Twitter permanently suspended his account last week over his continued efforts to advance allegations that the vote was rigged in favor of President Biden.

Twitter on Monday also officially banned the MyPillow company account after Lindell utilized it to make several posts attacking Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and promoting unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.

Speaking with Newsmax on Tuesday, Lindell repeatedly tried to voice his allegations against Dominion Voting Systems, which Trump and his allies have accused of being involved in efforts to rig the vote against him.

if they allow people to continue to defame them. Newsmax had no choice but to cut off Lindell's rant.

This is spectacular. They could run it on a loop and beat FNC, CNN, and MSNBC combined. It’s lacking only Lindell screaming “what are you deef?”

Anchored walked out because if Dominion triggers the suit, he could be included as a participant.
He didn't sign up for that!
"Get me out of here!"
