David Hogg drops pillow venture launched during spat with Mike Lindell
He must have slept on it.
Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg says he’s giving up his role in the pillow company he launched to compete with conservative MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell — and going back to activism.
Hogg, 20, announced on Twitter Saturday “resigned and released all shares, any ownership and any control of Good Pillow LLC” effective immediately.
“The reasons for my departure rests entirely with me and my own personal commitments and I truly wish (co-founder William LeGate) nothing but the best,” he wrote.
“Over the next several months, I will be taking some time to focus on my studies in college and advance the gun violence prevention movement with March For Our Lives and personally.”
Hogg — who was a Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student during the slaughter in 2018 — said in early February that he was working with LeGate, a tech entrepreneur, on a rival pillow firm.
He claimed the “progressive competition” could put Lindell, who hawks patented foam pillows on infomercials, out of business.
