People on Twitter did nothing to cushion the blow for MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell following his permanent suspension from the social media platform for spreading election conspiracy lies.
Lindell, a staunch ally of Donald Trump who continues falsely claiming the former president won the 2020 election, was booted from Twitter late Monday for ārepeated violationsā of the companyās civic integrity policy. Trump was banned earlier this month for inciting violence.
The bedtime-themed puns flowed in response to Lindellās ouster:
Mike Lindell has been banned from Twitter.

Is he crying into his "My Pillow"?
Okay...here it comes: he made his bed, now he must lie in MyPillow.

And as I turn out my light for bed time, Iāll have sweet dreams knowing that Mike Lindell is weeping into his stupid pillow.
