Mike Lindell returns to Twitter, gets immediately banned again
May 01, 2022
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell announced on Sunday that he was back on Twitter after being permanently banned in 2021 for allegedly spreading conspiracy theories about voting machines being fixed to sway the 2020 presidential election.
"Hello everybody, I'M BACK ON TWITTER. My only account is @MikeJLindell! Please RT and FOLLOW to SPREAD THE WORD," Lindell said on Twitter Sunday afternoon.
Lindell confirmed his return to Twitter in person during former President Donald Trump's rally in Nebraska:

But Lindell's new account was quickly flagged by blue-check tattlers on the platform:
I've reached out to Twitter regarding Mike Lindell being back on their platform. So far, no comment on the matter.— Zachary Petrizzo (@Zachary Petrizzo) 1651430091
And within hours, the pro-Trump pillow guy was back in Twitter exile...

...much to the delight of certain self-appointed speech police:
I reported him too - looks like Twitter is doing the right thing today!— hols (@hols) 1651440128
