The Springfield News-Leader reports:
A weekend-long conference hosted by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell and focused on conspiracy theories surrounding the 2020 election kicked off Saturday morning in Springfield. A few hundred people filed into the Springfield Expo Center to hear from Lindell, an ally of former President Donald Trump who has garnered national notoriety for his repeated claims of election fraud.
Lindell has touted the event as his most significant yet, since before details were announced. He previously called it “the most important event in our lifetimes.” Jenna Ellis, a former Trump campaign attorney, spoke alongside Lindell. Ellis this week was ordered to travel to Georgia to testify in front of a grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump and his allies’ roles in influencing the 2020 election.
The Daily Beast reports:
Colorado county clerk Tina Peters, indicted over allegedly breaching voting machines, was denied a request to travel out of her home state to Springfield, Missouri, for the Lindell-led conference while out on bond for a criminal offense.
“He is such a child,” fellow election denier and former Rep. Lauren Boebert campaign manager Sherronna Bishop said Saturday morning of District Attorney Dan Rubinstein, who prohibited Peters from traveling.
“She is a hero,” Lindell TV host Brannon Howse further exclaimed of Peters. Elsewhere, the event was derailed by technical difficulties and a pillow executive who couldn’t stop yelling at his own attendees.
As you can see below, homocon Gateway Pundit founder Jim Hoft is hosting a show from the venue with Steve Bannon.
Also in attendance are Kandiss “Jesus, Guns, Babies” Taylor and extremist Arizona state Sen. Wendy Rogers.

Mike Lindell’s latest voter fraud conference took a twist today when he was told onstage that a WI sheriff he flew to the event has gone missing. Mike, concerned, vows to find the sheriff.

Mike Lindell was up to his usual shenanigans again with his second voter fraud “summit” on Saturday. But before the event could get off the ground, its star speaker was told by a district attorney that she would be forbidden from attending. https://t.co/XHOaxyJtKq

Elsewhere, the event was derailed by technical difficulties and Lindell, who couldn’t stop yelling at his own attendees. During the event, he frequently repeated that the gathering would have “no breaks” and there should be “no reason to leave” the venue. https://t.co/AJBca2UViL
