MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is suing the FBI and the Department of Justice over the seizure of his phone while he was at a Hardee’s drive-through in Mankato, Minnesota earlier this month.

In a lawsuit (pdf) filed in a federal court in Minnesota, lawyers for Lindell claimed the seizure of his mobile device violated his First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment rights.
