Liz Cheney slams MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell's latest baseless claims of voter fraud: 'We have a name for this in Wyoming. Lunacy.'
- Rep. Liz Cheney accused MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell of "lunacy" on Wednesday.
- This was after Lindell made a baseless claim about Wyoming voting machines being fraudulent.
Rep. Liz Cheney on Wednesday slammed MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, accusing him of "lunacy" over his latest comments on the integrity of election results in Wyoming.
Cheney tweeted an article where Lindell was being interviewed by the Cowboy State Daily at a Trump rally in Casper, Wyoming, on Saturday. Speaking to the news outlet, Lindell once again baselessly claimed that votes were stolen from the former president.
Lindell suggested that he "has more information than anyone in the world" about the presence of "an algorithm that went nationwide, from Hawaii to Alaska to California to New York island." In addition, the pillow CEO suggested that any politician who denied his claims was a "traitor."
"Any politician says that — 100% traitor," he said. "Wyoming had 20-some thousand votes stolen in the presidential election. That's almost 10% of your [total cast] votes in Wyoming. Everything was taken."
Lindell implied that computers influenced the election results in "all 50 states."
"We have a name for this in Wyoming. Lunacy," Cheney tweeted in response.
Cheney's campaign manager Tammy Hooper also hit back at Lindell's claim that lawmakers not on board with his baseless claims are traitors.
"For an unhinged conspiracy theorist to make these baseless claims questioning the integrity of our elections in Wyoming and calling those who don't buy his fantasy 'traitors,' is dangerous and wrong," Hooper said in a statement to WyoToday Media.
"Everyone across Wyoming, including the Republican state party leadership, elected officials, and candidates have a responsibility to condemn these unfounded allegations and make clear that we won't allow an out-of-state wacko to baselessly attack the integrity of our public servants or question our patriotism," Hooper added.
Lindell is among several defendants being sued by voting technology company Dominion in a billion-dollar defamation lawsuit. Lindell is also embroiled in a separate defamation suit with voting company Smartmatic.
Lindell, meanwhile, is bankrolling a nationwide campaign to stop the use of voting machines in all 50 states.
