This week, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is entering his billion-dollar defamation trial with confidence, stating in interviews that he intends to testify and “tell the truth,” asserting, “I’m not going to incriminate myself! I’ve done nothing wrong.”

The 63-year-old Lindell is being sued in federal court by Dominion Voting Systems after he allegedly “maliciously spread false claims” and accused the company of “rigging the 2020 presidential election,” as stated by Dominion officials. Jury selection was slated to begin on Monday, according to Colorado Politics, with U.S. District Judge Nina Wang — appointed by Joe Biden — presiding over the case in Denver, Colorado.

“If any attorney advised me not to testify or to take a deal, I’d tell them: ‘Never!”” Lindell told Rolling Stone last week.

“I speak the truth,” Lindell insisted. “I’ve been in many courts in my life, and ‘don’t testify’ is what they tell the guilty people, in my mind.”

Lindell appeared on Steve Bannon‘s “War Room” podcast on Sunday and joked about brandishing one of his famous pillows after a lawyer in the case called them “lumpy” in a past interview.

“I told my lawyers, maybe I should bring him one inside,” Lindell said.

The case made headlines in April after Wang issued a scathing rebuke of Lindell for submitting a court filing allegedly rife with errors because his attorney allegedly used a generative artificial intelligence program, citing several court cases that don’t exist.

“These defects include but are not limited to misquotes of cited cases; misrepresentations of principles of law associated with cited cases, including discussions of legal principles that simply do not appear within such decisions; misstatements regarding whether case law originated from a binding authority such as the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit; misattributions of case law to this District; and most egregiously, citation of cases that do not exist,” Wang blasted.
