National Harbor, MD — Two prominent election deniers with Colorado ties pushed election fraud conspiracies at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday. My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell and former Trump attorney John Eastman, who was teaching at the University of Colorado’s Benson Center when he authored the infamous “coup memo,” both had speaking slots at CPAC. Lindell said he is continuing to investigate election fraud claiming there were “four senators and nine congressman” whose elections were stolen in the 2024 election. [Editor’s note: based on previous statements, Lindell is likely referring to the four Senate seats Democrats won in states that voted for Trump, and the nine House seats that flipped from red to blue.]
