A federal judge has ruled that the CEO of My Pillow, Mike Lindell, must pay $5 million to a software developer who debunked Lindell's false claims about the 2020 presidential election being stolen. Lindell initially promised the $5 million prize in a contest called Prove Mike Wrong, where individuals could challenge the accuracy of his election data.
The software developer expressed optimism about receiving the payment despite Lindell's potential appeals. Lindell, who is facing financial challenges and defamation lawsuits from voting machine companies, including a $1.3 billion suit from Dominion, has continued to promote baseless claims about election fraud.
