Attorney Alan Dershowitz says he is advising lawyers representing MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell in the $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems in connection to the businessmans conspiracy theories involving the 2020 election.
Dershowitz, a former Harvard law professor who defended former President Trump in his first impeachment trial, confirmed to The Hill on Tuesday that he is consulting with his [Lindells] lawyers but added that he has a limited role.
I think it is a very important First Amendment case, Dershowitz, who is also an opinion contributor for The Hill, explained.
Dershowitz added that he is more concerned with Dominion limiting the free marketplace of ideas with its defamation suit and is not necessarily supportive of the content of Lindells arguments.

(18,641 posts)I think Dershowitz is bilking the Pillow Guy out of money before Dominion takes it all.
He has a "limited role" and he doesn't believe a word that kook is saying, but he'll take money to defend his right to damage an honest company just so Trump will be his friend.
