Dominion Voting Systems has sent a cease and desist letter to MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell remind him and his staff not to delete any electronic communications ahead of an impending lawsuit.
According to New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, the letter is the first step in a lawsuit over baseless claims Lindell and others in Trump's orbit have made about the company.

And the senator stresses that other Republicans need to publicly condemn QAnon and other extremists for the good of their party.
