SD Gov Stranded After Lindell Tossed From GOP Event

Politico reports:

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem flew on MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s private jet on her way to the Republican Governors Association spring meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, this week, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Lindell, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, was kicked out of the event after he had promised to confront Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp about why they aren’t pushing to overturn the 2020 election results in their states.

Lindell told POLITICO earlier this week that after having arrived in Nashville on Monday and having planned to spend most of the week in the city, he instead left Nashville on Tuesday night by private jet. That left Noem looking for a new ride home.

Read the full article. Noem’s spokesman is denying the report that she was left stranded after Lindell’s ejection and that she “reimburses for flights when appropriate.” Lindell tells Politico that the names of passengers on his private jet are “highly confidential.”
