Election experts have uniformly declared that the 2020 election was conducted fairly.
MyPillow CEO and ardent Trump supporter Mike Lindell says his products have been dropped by major retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond and Kohl's after his repeated false claims of voter fraud in the presidential election.

Lindell told NBC Minnesota affiliate KARE on Monday that HEB Stores, Wayfair and Canada's Today's Shopping Choice channel had also stopped selling his products. MyPillow, the bedding company with commercials starring Lindell, is based in Chaska, Minnesota.

In an email to NBC News Tuesday morning, Lindell said that "a group has attacked my vendors" and that the retailers called him saying they had been threatened with "a boycott if they don’t comply" and drop his products.

A representative for Today's Shopping Choice confirmed that MyPillow products would no longer be sold on the channel.

A Bed Bath & Beyond spokesperson said the decision to stop selling MyPillow was in the company's economic interest.

“We are continually improving our product assortment," the retailer said. "As previously announced, we have been rationalizing our assortment to discontinue a number of underperforming items and brands. This includes the MyPillow product line."

Spokespeople for the other three vendors did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
