Mike Lindell just got his butt kicked in court
“My Pillow” guy Mike Lindell is still waiting to hear whether the FBI seizure of his cellphone is going to lead to a criminal indictment against him. This comes even as he and his allies now claim he’s pretty much broke, after having blown his fortune chasing election conspiracy theories. Now it’s gotten even uglier for Lindell.
Awhile back he offered $5 million to anyone who could disprove his claims about the 2020 election. Someone took a look at Lindell’s data and promptly determined that it wasn’t even data from the 2020 election, thus winning the challenge. Lindell went to arbitration to try to avoid paying up, but he lost. Then he took his case to court, but today he lost that too.
This means that Mike Lindell, who claims he has no money on hand, has thirty days to pay $5 million or the process will begin by which it’s forcibly taken from him. So now Lindell and his pal Donald Trump both have a running clock against them. Tick tock.
