MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Ordered to Pay $2.3 Million for Defamation
A jury has found Mike Lindell, the founder of MyPillow, liable for defaming a former executive of Dominion Voting Systems. In the trial held in Denver, Lindell was ordered to pay $2.3 million in damages for making false claims about election fraud that significantly harmed the reputation of the plaintiff. Despite the verdict, Lindell continues to maintain his assertions regarding the 2020 election and has even utilized the trial to promote his products.
