Former Trump lawyer Alan Dershowitz is advising MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell in Dominion defamation suit, says his role is 'extremely limited'

Former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz is advising lawyers for MyPillow CEO and election conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell in the $1.3 billion defamation suit brought against him by Dominion Voting Systems.

But Dershowitz, the famed free speech advocate and one-time impeachment lawyer for former President Donald Trump, insists that he’s merely playing a bit part in the proceedings.

„My role is extremely limited,“ Dershowitz told CNBC on Tuesday in a phone call.

Dershowitz maintained that he is „not representing either Lindell or MyPillow,“ and that he is only offering advice on the First Amendment issues surrounding the case.

Those remarks run counter to the impression given by Lindell, who called Dershowitz „part of the team“ just a day earlier.
