MyPillow founder and President Donald Trump ally Mike Lindell says the FBI tracked him down on a hunting trip and seized his phone after raiding his car.
Lindell says his car was surrounded by FBI agents while he was heading home from a hunting trip with a friend at a Hardees in Minnesota.
“Cars pulled up in front of us, to the side of us, and behind us, and I said ‘they’re either bad guys or the FBI,'” Lindell said.
“Well, it turns out they were the FBI.”

“I can’t even imagine that you can take someone’s phone because they want me to be a witness in the Tina Peters case,” Lindell added.
“But I’m not a witness, they just want my phone.”

Lindell is the latest Trump ally to receive a warrant or subpoena by the FBI, according to Zero Hedge.
Last week, the Biden DOJ hit dozens of Trump aides and allies with subpoenas.
The move is reportedly part of the FBI’s investigation into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 US election over claims of fraud that handed Joe Biden the White House, as well as the run-up to the January 6 2021 Capitol riot.
The Biden DOJ waited more than 18 months to initiate legal action against Trump and his allies, choosing to move right before the midterms instead.
The recent aggressive action from the FBI comes after Biden said he wouldn’t weaponize the Justice Department.
