MyPillow CEO Steps Down for Governor | Tucson News

Mike Lindell, the MyPillow founder, is stepping down as CEO to fully focus on his Minnesota gubernatorial run, slashing his ownership to a minority stake while staying on the board. James Furlong takes over as CEO, marking a major pivot from business to politics. With early voting underway for the August 11 primary — likely pitting him against Amy Klobuchar in November — Lindell’s campaign already faces scrutiny over alleged campaign law violations, including handing out pillows at a Fourth of July parade. This high-stakes political leap could reshape both his legacy and the future of MyPillow. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
