MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has been permanently barred from Twitter [View all]

Mike Lindell, the MyPillow CEO who is a fervent supporter of former President Donald Trump, has been permanently suspended by Twitter.

Twitter cited Lindell for violating its civic-integrity policy by making repeated false claims about the 2020 US election and violating the platform's policy on misinformation.

In the aftermath of the presidential election, Lindell used Twitter to defend his close friend and suggest that the president impose "martial law" in the seven states where Trump was contesting the results of the election. He also tweeted that some Georgia voters should "go to prison" as a punishment for Joe Biden's win there.

Lindell has long been a close ally of Trump, and on Monday he told the Associated Press that the former president promised to endorse him should he run for Minnesota governor. Lindell also supported Trump's baseless election-fraud claims and helped to fund his postelection "March for Trump" bus tour.
