“In an early Wednesday morning text exchange, however, Lindell claimed the plaintiffs would be announced at the protest. He then gave The Daily Beast the names of four states, on the condition they not be named until the announcement: All of them, however, were Democratic states, two of which were already listed as defendants in his draft.” > **[Mike Lindell Trolls Fox News With Pathetic Rally](https://www.thedailybeast.com/mike-lindell-trolls-fox-news-with-pathetic-rally)** > > While he jets across the nation, Lindell orders a smattering of his most fervent fans to protest at Fox News HQ. ---

So two of the defendants were also going to be plaintiffs? Yet again Lindell logic boggles the mind. ---

He’s so unhinged at this point, that I semi-seriously wonder if he even realizes he’s trying to have two names be both plaintiff and defendant. ---

And Lin Wood and Patrick Byrne ( former Overstock CEO, ex-boyfriend of Maria Butina and all around crazy conspiracy theorist) are feuding as well, although I’m not sure what this one’s about. Byrne is still all up in the election fraud scam, he’s promoting Lindell’s lawsuit on his website. The gist of most of these internal feuds seems to be ………_He_ isn’t doing enough to Fix 2020, expose the fraud, and reinstate Trump…send your money to _me_ instead! Of course, anyone that makes the mistake of suggesting that Biden is President and that conservatives should move on to harassing health care workers and burning books is immediately and vocally attacked by the Fix 2020 First crowd. I’ve been popping in to Lindell’s little Thanks-a-thon occasionally this weekend - it’s underwhelming - and this morning, he was ironically promoting his rehab service for drug addicts. I have no idea what kind of rehab he offers, I went to the website for his recovery service and I still have no idea how it works, I think you fill out a form telling Mike what you’re afflicted to and he has a phone app that makes you all better……or something. ---

At this point, except to use him as a time-filler, why would anybody have him on? He has to be a joke among them after his sputtering cyber symposium.
