https://www.thedailybeast.com/mypillow-guy-mike-lindell-plans-to-drop-pillows-from-the-sky-over-canada-in-support-of-trucker-vax-protestAfter his initial Tuesday shipment of MyPillow products was denied entry into Canada, Mike Lindell now has a backup plan to get free pillows to Canadian truckers: drop them from the sky via a helicopter. The pillow maven told The Daily Beast late Wednesday night that he intends to drop his pillows into Canada from a helicopter with little parachutes attached. We need to get the MyPillows to the people! he continued. The 2020 election dead-ender further made it a point to ensure The Daily Beast noted in this report that the pillows will have little parachutes, adding, make sure you put that part in, or it could be dangerous. Asked where exactly he intended to drop the pillows, he said, I can not give the location out, and it is no joke! I just confirmed with them [the helicopter company], and yes, this is the plan. We have the helicopter confirmed, but we are moving the time up to 11 am. The Daily Beast could not reach the Canada Border Services Agency for comment late Wednesday night.
