Dershowitz: Why I'm Defending Mike Lindell, the Pillow Guy

[Red State] Lifelong liberal Democrat attorney Alan Dershowitz has agreed to represent Mike Lindell after the FBI ambushed the Pillow Guy a little less than two weeks ago at a Hardee’s in rural Minnesota, took his phone, and issued a subpoena regarding an investigation into Lindell’s involvement in an alleged election security breach in Colorado. Dershowitz explains in a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed why he would defend such an obvious criminal mastermind:

I disagree with My Pillow founder Mike Lindell about a lot of things, including his belief that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump. I’m a liberal Democrat; he is a conservative Republican. Yet I am enthusiastically representing him in his lawsuit against the Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation over the recent search and seizure of his telephone.

In addition to his op-ed, Dershowitz has been making the rounds on Fox News, and also discussed his decision on his own podcast, The Dershow:

#1 I still don't know about this Dershowitz fella, but as long as he believes the law is still the law (in the rule of law), then I'll give him a thumb's up.

Despite not agreeing with Dershowitz politics on a number of points. As a lawyer, he defends according to the laws and knows how to play the jury game (eg..OJ ).

So a little digging, shows he was brought up as a Orthodox Jew and his strong dedication to the defense of Israel and the Jewish people and those defending it. So I feel makes him a trusted asset in this and other such Bill of Rights cases.

WHY?
Given the way the LSD's Gal Squad and others in the LSD party that have openly shown their antisemitic views and voted accordingly against Israel.

I feel he can be trusted to be a good lawyer against the LSD's over reach and strong arm tactics used.

#4 He has pointed out Democratic misbehaviour around Jews and Israel since Barack Obama was first elected president, that I can recall, then votes for Democrats like Obama anyway.

But with regard to the law, I agree, NN2N1.

#5 I've felt that the Democrat party left Dershowitz behind and he's noticed but can't move to the GOP column for reasons of his own.

#6 Real conservatism is at its hear pragmatic. Leftism and the "neocon" scam are utterly idealistic. While you see stories about lifelong dems switching parties, you don't see much of the same going the other way, despite the media's excruciating effort to make it a big thing.

Actual dems who moved conservative: Reagan and Trump. Other side of the coin, a RINO moving left is basically just a case of coming out of the political closet.

#8 M. Murcek, many are lefty grifters pretending to be Conservatives but I think you undervalue mental health issues which are responsible for many moving leftward.

#9 Fascinating Article on Brain Differences between liberals and conservatives. Nothing definitive but telling insights about the generalized "thinking vs feeling" undercurrents in political positions.

Excerpt: ..."A 2012 study from the University of South Carolina found through MRI scans that Republicans show more neural activity in areas linked with tight social connectedness like family and country, while Democrats have more neural activity in areas believed to be linked with broad social connectedness, such as friends and the world at-large. This study decimated the long held stereotype that “Democrats enjoyed a virtual biological lock on caring for others.” This comes as no surprise since studies show that conservatives give “significantly” more generously than those on the left.

#10 This comes as no surprise since studies show that conservatives give “significantly” more of their money generously than those on the left.

FIFY. The Left believes in being generous with your money aka the Treasury.

Wonder how he felt about OJ. Moron.
