A Newsmax host on Tuesday walked off camera in the middle of an interview with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell after the businessman and vocal supporter of former President Trump refused to stop voicing unsupported claims of fraud in the 2020 election.
Anchor Bob Sellers and fellow host Heather Childers attempted to interview Lindell on conservative complaints of “cancel culture” after Twitter permanently suspended his account last week over his continued efforts to advance allegations that the vote was rigged in favor of President Biden.
Twitter on Monday also officially banned the MyPillow company account after Lindell utilized it to make several posts attacking Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and promoting unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.

NewsMax has sent out the following update:
Mike Lindell Says Newsmax ‘Is Great,’ MyPillow Soars Despite Boycotts
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was back on Newsmax TV on “Rob Schmitt Tonight” Tuesday, saying that Newsmax “is great.”
Lindell joined Schmitt after a dust-up with a Newsmax anchor earlier that afternoon over confusion about the segment topic.
Lindell tells Newsmax TV that he and his business may have been targeted by “cancel culture,” but it’s really the businesses dropping his MyPillow products that are suffering most.
I had thought that Newsmax was the new hope for conservatives, I guess I was wrong.
I’m afraid you were. Newsmax chickened out a few weeks ago when they were threatened by lawyers for having someone on the program that accused the election of being improper. I assume that the hosts are given strict instruction to muzzle any guests who have an opinion on election fraud. If these Newsmax people are going to cave every time a deep state operative threatens them they need to get back to a different format (like cooking shows or something).
If the anchor isn’t fired, there are other sources for honest news. After years of appreciating News Max, I will now fire them from my patronage.
Us, too… and we were getting to like them. But like the people at Fox, no gumption. Off NewMax and onto OANN!
FOR Weeks now, i’ve been bashing newsmax, yet many folks downrated my comments.. Looks like i was RIGHT and they were wrong.
I’ve switched to OANN! It’s so refreshing to get an HONEST report of the NEWS (without a heavy dose of Marxist propaganda)!
We’re quickly running out of places to switch too.
WHICH is how the left wants it.. NO WHERE LEFT for conservatives to go..
Apparently, the anchor is running scared.
Why is “voicing unsupported claims of fraud” somehow forbidden, and punishable by deplatforming and ostracization?
Didn’t the entire DNC and their media lapdogs spend the last 4 years “voicing unsupported claims of fraud” against Trump ??
BUT you forget. IF THE LEFT does it, “it is seen as being patriotic, their duty, and RIGHT/Good/just. BUT WHEN WE on the right, do it, it’s seen as WRONG/Evil/Bad”…
Why invite a guest on a show and refuse to hear what they have to say? First Amendment is free speech, as long as it is not vulgar or violent. I would like to hear what Mike Lindell has to say, I respect him. Most Newscasters are a bunch of parrots, no real news.
Mostly it’s
A) cause they hope the person will just be another YES man
B) cause they try to CATCH the conservative in a lie, they can BASH them over, for months on end…
Yup I was wrong too. I’ve already dumped Newsmax on my iPhone. I’ll not check back until that looney and very rude Bob Sellers is gone. To walk off the set is beyond the pale.
Looks like Newsmax is competing with Fox to be the biggest conservative turncoat station.
Bob Sellers ,you just shot Newsmax in the FOOT. I make the decision about who to listen to, NOT YOU
I wonder, if everyone of us who SWITCHED to newsmax, cause of fox, DROPS THEM, how LITTLE of their viewership they’d have left?
WHAT “unsubstantiated” claims? What he was talking about had plenty of substance.
Not to those, who perpetrated, and helped cover UP the fraud..
Dominion voting machines flipped votes in Antrim County, Michigan in favor of Biden, when Trump took the majority of those votes. But like Tyler Cohen said in the video above, there was no voter fraud. Yep, throwing poll watchers out and then counting ballots, truck driver taking ballots across state lines, putting cardboard on windows in polling stations, running the same ballots through multiple times for Biden, military ballots in Georgia that were 100% for Joe Biden, taking ballots out of suitcases, after poll watchers were thrown out. no verification of signatures, ballots counted that were postmarked after election day and counted, mail in ballots, ballot harvesting, but there was no voter fraud, was there?
Correct.
WHEN they won’t RECOGNIZE the fraud, of course they won’t “SEE IT”..

The evidence is there. There was massive fraud. This Bozo quoting the Dominion lawsuit numbers means nothing.
“NEWSMAX accepts the certification” does NOT mean there was no fraud.
The certification does not prove that there was no fraud.
The organised bum’s rush to certification indicates that fraud was rampant.
Newsmax has never been anything but another trap.
Newsmax was founded/is owned by Chris Ruddy, who has personally contributed huge amounts of money to the Clinton Foundation for pay to play, in contrast to his own early book on the Death of Vince Foster has in recent years become a good friend of Bill Clinton, and is on record saying in the 2016 election cycle that he thought Hillary Clinton would make a good President. Like Fox News, Newsmax has never been anything other than a trap, albeit a very profitable one for Chris Ruddy — to suck conservatives and Patriots in with a veneer of conservative talk/values in order to then subtly slip in disinformation and politically correct shaming for the purpose of inserting disinformation, confusion, apprehension, and demoralization into their conservative and Patriot audience. Edward Bernays, Joseph Goebbels (who always kept a copy of Edward Bernays’s book on his desk), and Sefton Delmer (head of British “black propaganda” against the Germans in WW2) all understood and practiced the principle that for propaganda to be effective it must contain 80% truth — in order to create the credibility through which you can then insert 20% disinformation, lies, and demoralization into your target opposition.
The stuff that is going on here is literally unbelievable. If someone had made one of those doomsday movies 20 years ago about the Orwellian events actually happening today it would have failed in the marketplace because people would have thought it too far afield for believability. Zombies and invasions from Mars? Maybe so, but not this kind of assault on the American system.
The 1st Amendment is essentially gone because few people with power (including gutless Republican legislators) have challenged this kind of assault on the Constitution. It’s no wonder Pelosi, AOC and the ilk are wanting extra protection. They know what they are doing and they know the American public is not going to lay down for it. It would not surprise me in the least if everything said on these postings are being monitored, so beware.
ANy screen writer who came up with it, would have been LAUGHED out of hollywood, for being ‘a conspiracy nut”..
“. . . refused to stop voicing unsupported claims of fraud in the 2020 election.” This insertion of commentary into a “news” piece demonstrates that GOPUSA is also just another fake conservative/Patriot vehicle for set up for the sake disrupting the conservative movement to divide and conquer on behalf of the Spirit of anti-Christ — which is what this is ultimately all about. Mike Lindell has the overwhelming evidence, as do many others. But if the false outlets like GOPUSA just keep repeating “unsupported,” without regard to facts, they hope that eventually they’ll cower and shame everyone into submission.
I love how “news outlets” refer to the myriad pieces of election fraud evidence as “unsupported.”
What do you mean by “unsupported claims ” ? There is plenty of evidence to support what Mike Lindell is saying!
So why don’t they investigate, like real reporters?
That would
A) require actual work. A curse word to the left
B) MIGHT mean they’d actually find facts.. HEAVEN FORBID.
C) means they’d have to be OPEN minded.. Something they apparently are not.
You know it’s fake news when the reporter takes a side…
There never has been a printed or televised summary and/or accounting and presentation of the probable and potential evidence of election maleficence, fraud, law breaking and other verifiable suspicious behavior. NO ONE has had to explain the law breaking and criminal behavior. Nor has anyone dispelled the numerous accusations and instances of mystery ballots and criminal behavior. No has anyone PROVEN THE ELECTION WAS FAIR, OPEN AND HONEST.
I think Newsmax just shot themselves in the foot. All conservatives have been looking for somewhere to get news they can trust. Guess we can eliminate Newsmax.
Don’t sell em short yet. They may be for us, or not. Let them know.
All though out november, i TRIED giving fauxmucks, a chance. BUT WITH THE sheer # of libtards there, (especially in the comments section), and them FLAT OUT doing this.. SHOWS THEY WERE NEVER a haven for conservatives, but a TRAP set up to lull us in.
President Trump is not finished yet.
To
Quote John Chambers AMP “Everything will be OK in the end, if its not Ok, its not the end.”
WITH how he literally LET US DOWN, by caving in, AND IS NOW ENDORSING MANY of the same backstabbing RINOS WHO stood AGAINST HIM, how can you say he’s not finished’???
ltuser,
I’ve watched your post for well over a year & Have come to the conclusion you are a Drama queen & Love to tell every one that you were right all along.
Which are two very weak personality traits.
President Trump has done more for this Country in four years than any President.
He has shown us how corrupt the system is and how to fight & You rather than use that as inspiration to join in and participate just sit back online and whine & complain about the Man who has helped us the most.
Shame on you!
Where are you coming from? Why don’t you switch over to CNN where you belong?
COMMENTBYE, NEWSMAX!!! HELLO OANN!
I’ve got OAN too put its not free.
Amazing how socialists admitted socialists can even run for office let alone get elected but they have. Who are those in this free society would ever vote for a socialist? Who? Biden was a crook at 26. Never held a real job fresh out law school. What the hell has he done? Just like Obama. Change my name Barry. Never held a real full time job yet elected. A bar tender not to knock a good bartender but a bartender elected. A call girl. And illegally entering our country Muslim elected to public office. Yet there is no voter fraud. If that’s true then we are a land of idiots.
LOL at the Journalistic words “unsupported” and “debunked”.
“Unsupported” because the only reason evidence such as sworn testimony wasn’t presented was because the courts rejected all cases due to the procedural issue of Standing;
“Debunked” only because everyone they know (in the echo chamber) says the same thing.
Newsmax…Just another Twitter. Tweet tweet!
The 2020 election wasn’t stolen…. it was TAKEN. When you STEAL something, that’s done in secret. When you TAKE something, it’s done right out in the open, right in front of everyone’s faces.
The difference between robbery and thievery.
AND since it was effectively CONDONED by the media and courts, its not “A crime”, either.
It’s not just NewsMax… this GOPUSA rag is the problem… they know as well as we do that these are not “unsubstantiated” claims… they should have noted that in the article. WE know about the 200,000+ extra votes in PA. WE know that there were many sworn affidavits regarding fraud. WE know that all voting in four states stopped election nite only to turn back on again with vote dumps for Biden. This GOPUSA is more of the Quisling type of politics… they don’t want to stand up to the truth. Bobby Eberle may want to re-think his participateion!
I saw that, I think newsmax may very well have just joined the ranks of fox and the rest.
Maybe if they actually let the evidence be heard we would all shut up. I conducted multiple audits of voters in Chicago in 2001 and 2005 with political science students. We sampled all precincts with 100% Democrat registration. results: 13% or the voters had either died or moved.
If you tried that in class, these days, you’d probably be fired.
THAT SO CALLED NEWS ANCHOR SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY FIRED. No questions asked, and none needed.
Did NewsMAx get infiltrated by the corrupt leftists or did they sell out?
The added on video segment with the leftist boy repeating the leftist mantra about no proof of fraud is their signature denying accountability and is offensive to people who aren’t idiots. To correct them, there is an abundance of proof of fraud, but censorship and corruption is preventing it’s presentation.
IMO they got corrupted. WHen i was on fox’s site, i often saw liberals who infiltrated it, just to STIR UP the ‘temperature’, and get people banned for flaming… THEN i saw in the comments section, some of those SAME PEOPLE (based on how they worded their comments)…
notice that Sellers would not even let Lindell speak… Lindell was talking about why he was banned… and Sellers took off as an advocate. Sorry, NewsMax. We are done with you.
Did you not understand that the phrase “unsubstantiated claims of election fraud” was in the excerpt of the story from the website The Hill? Did you not see the link taking you back to the story on The Hill? That excerpt was not written by someone at GOPUSA. It was written by a writer at The Hill.
The media is biased. It is what it is. Yelling at us because we tell you what they are saying doesn’t help anyone.

Why do we keep seeing the phrase, “unsubstantiated claims of election fraud”? Even here on GOP USA, they seem to feel obligated to cover their back side by adding the disclaimer. Want to know why the left always wins? Because intimidation works. There were hundred of unsubstantiated claims against Trump, but you’ll never hear anyone in the media use that term when referring to left wing bomb throwers. How about noting the left made unsubstantiated claims of racism, unsubstantiated claims of Russian collusion, or unsubstantiated claims of inciting insurrection. Come on you so called conservatives grow a pair and that includes you GOP USA.
Sad to say it but it appears to be truer everyday. The Democrats and Republicans’ have sold us out to the one-world government crowd.
Where will people go for NEWS once everyone is silenced or turned chicken and run under threat of lawsuits and government pressure? The end of representative democracy and self government is quickly coming to a close. I’m sure this forum is being monitored by the surveillance police state they have created.
And all of us on watchlists..
Dear Newsmax, you either support the truth or you are just another CNN, MSLSD and FOX News. And after seeing this interview I hope that Newsmax goes the way of where FOX News is heading. We don’t need another FOX News. Bye Bye Newsmax. And bye bye GOP. You are the DNC on quaaludes. You want the same results but slower.
Trump, if you are listening – You need to get off your duff and start a news organization and a new political party.
And if trump doesn’t, he’s imo just as cowardly as the rest of the GOP has become.
ltuser,
I guess if President Trump does not tuck you in at night with a glass of milk it is his fault.
You are an ankle biter & need to quite behaving as a spoiled child!
ANd i guess, YOU believe, “Trump can do no wrong”…?
If Newsmax is going to treat good patriotic Americans like the way they treated My Pillows CEO, then I don’t want to watch or read them any longer! There WAS massive election fraud, which overturned the election… no question about it! And we all know that!
Newsmax doesn’t seem to have a clue that the Twitter censorship and the election steal are one and the same. You can’t talk about the big techs censorship, and not talk about the election steal. That is why they cancelled Lindell. Big tech helped with the election steal and they are actively censoring anyone who tries to talk about the steal. They both go hand in hand.
Newsmax is living in lala land if they think that they can coddle liberals, that the liberals won’t go after Newsmax.
This video made me think I was watching CNN and not conservative news. The rudeness and shouting down their guest is what the liberal fake news do.
One American News is a great station although I still watch Dobbs, Tucker, Hannity, and Laura when I get the chance.
