CBS News is pathetic.
Instead of covering all of the positive news coming out of CPAC in Florida, they instead, attempted to play gotcha with My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell.
When given the opportunity to ask Mike Lindell a question, CBS News reporter Robert Costa actually asked Mr. Lindell about a one-year-old New York Times story about Mike’s friendship with President Trump that included a photo of him leaving the White House and carrying notes that were zoomed in on by the media, showing the words, “Martial Law.”
(thread) One unanswered question from the post-January 6 period inside the Trump White House: who provided Mike Lindell with his “martial law” papers, photographed on January 15, 2021? This story is detailed here by @maggieNYT… https://t.co/J1En5PNu37

“You’re disgusting!” Mike Lindell said as he explained to the crowd gathering around him, “He’s asking me about the picture at the White House a year ago!”
Robert Costa is a traitor to the United States of America! Mike said. “This is old news you’re regurgitating!”
“Traitor! Traitor! Traitor!” the crowd standing around Lindell began chanting.
Watch:
This is how my exchange today with Lindell ended. Calmly asked him to provide names of lawyers, the lawyers who he says provided him with papers that included the mention of “martial law.” Papers he carried into a meeting with Trump. pic.twitter.com/GHQVTyNgWW

Costa continued with his ridiculous line of questioning, demanding that Mike Lindell tell him where he got the notes that he carried in his hands as he left the White House. After Mike told him it was none of his business, he explained that “a bunch of lawyers” gave him the notes he was carrying and that he never read them. Costa continued to press, asking the same questions over and over again. Mike finally suggested they go back and watch their own “rotten news” to discover the answers to their questions.
Today at CPAC, @CBSNews asked Lindell several times to share the name of the lawyers. He says a “whole bunch of lawyers” gave him the documents, but grew irritated when asked to name them.
Eventually he…
