Will Dominion end up owning MyPillow?

 Here's the score so far:

  • Dominion filed a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against MyPillow and its CEO Mike Lindell in February.

  • The litigation has led to people joking about how Dominion will soon own the pillow company.

  • Legal experts told Insider there are 2 ways Dominion could wind up owning MyPillow if it wins in court.

Dominion Voting System's spree of lawsuits fighting against 2020 election conspiracy theories have drawn wildly different reactions from the defendants.

Some have taken steps to address the allegations, like Fox News, which asked the court to dismiss the defamation lawsuit, parted ways with co-defendant Lou Dobbs, and has avoided giving a platform to conspiracy theorists like Sidney Powell in the past few months.

On the other end of the spectrum is MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, who instantly went nuclear.

As soon as Dominion filed its lawsuit in February, Lindell declared he was "happy" to face the election technology company in court. He filed a counter-lawsuit, has refused to provide an answer to Dominion's initial claims, and subsequently bankrolled and starred in three "docu-movies" and one "cyber symposium" advancing the conspiracy theory that Dominion manipulated election results.

As the meme goes, Dominion will soon own MyPillow, Lindell's company.

Dominion is asking for $1.3 billion in damages, suing both MyPillow and Lindell personally. It alleges Lindell used his company's resources in pursuit of defaming the election technology company, selling more pillows in the process.

"I'm the one that asked them to sue me," Lindell told Insider on Wednesday, repeating false claims of election fraud. "I don't care if it's a scrillion, a billion, whatever. It's all just a joke."

Lindell said he was "not worried" about Dominion's "frivolous" lawsuits. Dominion wanted to suppress his voice "by trying to bankrupt Mike Lindell," he said, switching to third-person.

But if Dominion wins its defamation lawsuit against Lindell's company, will it actually end up owning MyPillow?

Bankruptcy law experts say it's possible. If MyPillow loses, Dominion will have two opportunities to add a pillow company to its portfolio: Seizing its assets or winning a bankruptcy auction.
