During an appearance on Newsmax this week, attorney Alan Dershowitz not only announced that he is going to be defending MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, but also that he believes that Lindell is being targeted for his political beliefs. While it isn't uncommon for attorneys to make claims like this in public, it does completely ignore the facts of the case that Dershowitz is well aware of. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Former Jeffrey Epstein lawyer, Allen Dershowitz has announced that he is in fact going to be representing Mike Linde in this ongoing fight that he's having now with the FBI. And Dershowitz appeared on, uh, news max to really just let everybody know that this is just another political witch hunt and Mike Linde happens to be the victim now. So take a look at Dershowitz, pretending to not understand the facts of the case. Here he is.
Fortunately, he has very, very excellent legal representation, no better. Alan Dershowitz, professor emeritus at Harvard law school has been working with Michael and Dell for some time, by the way he has yet another book, prolific author, the price of principle, why integrity is worth the consequences. Professor Dershowitz. Welcome back. How are you and how is Mike?
Well, Mike is clearly being looked at by the FBI. It's part of a long process where this administration has gone after its, its enemies. And, um, look, I don't agree with Mike Lindell's philosophy. I don't agree that the election was stolen. I think Biden one, the election, but I don't pick my clients based on whether I agree or not. I, I pick my clients based on whether they are victims of improper prosecutorial action and whether they are victims of unconstitutional action. And I think that, uh, there is a, a very strong possibility that Linde is being targeted because of his political views and because of his advocacy for positions that I don't necessarily support, but I'm gonna defend him. I'm gonna defend the first amendment. I'm gonna defend due process. I'm gonna defend the constitution.
So Dershowitz says, this is just Mike Linde, founder of MyPillow, somehow being persecuted for his political beliefs, which by the way, Dershowitz makes clear. I don't agree with him on any of this, but I will fight to the death, his right, to say these things and for first amendment and free speech. Yeah. Hey, listen, bud. I know, you know this because you're not an idiot, right? Alan Dershowitz has many things, but an idiot. He is not, he knows the law. He's actually pretty good at it. You know, to give him credit there. He's, you know, personal life got some issues there that are gonna be dealt with in court. However, he knows the law and he knows well, this is not a first amendment case that he is representing Mike Linde for. He has seen the same documents that Mike Linde revealed on his, uh, little Linde TV show, even though he was told by the FBI not to do it.
Um, but he knows that Linde is listed as a co-conspirator as are many others. And even some unnamed co-conspirators in that FBI document. So he knows that his client, Mike Linde is likely facing criminal charges in the very near future. They don't go and confiscate your cell phone if they don't think, or at least have enough evidence to prove to a judge, to get the warrant that you have done something illegal, or at least that the phone was involved in illegal activity. Deitz knows all of these things folks. So what he is out there doing right now is misdirecting the public. He is trying to convince this Maga audience that he has somehow fallen in love with right. Deitz used to be super liberal guy. I've actually been to several conferences where, you know, fairly liberal trial lawyer conferences where Deitz was the guest speaker, but now he's become a darling of the mag crowd.
And it's because of statements like this going on TV and saying, Mike Lindel did nothing wrong other than have different political beliefs than the current administration and administration.
