MyPillow Man Mike Lindell Ordered to Pay Legal Fees for Guy Who Proved Him Wrong at ‘Prove Mike Wrong’ Event
MyPillow Man Mike Lindell Ordered to Pay Legal Fees for Guy Who Proved Him Wrong at ‘Prove Mike Wrong’ Event
Lindell has experienced nothing but financial setbacks since he decided to become Trump's #1 fan.
My favorite part of this whole hilarious series of stories is that the guy who proved Lindell wrong was a Trump voter.
TL;DR
“Prove Mike Wrong” offered $5 million to any willing and able cyber professional who could demonstrate that Lindell was wrong about the election being co-opted by Chinese hackers working on behalf of the Biden campaign.
in addition to having to pay a guy [...] $5 million [...], Lindell will now have to pay some of that guy’s attorneys fees, which were incurred in court.
Did nobody proofread this article? The writing is so convoluted. Run it through ChatGPT at the very least, good god.
The only things is the use of "guy" but apart from that i dont see anything wrong with that section.
Here's the full quote:
Case in point: in addition to having to pay a guy who he bet $5 million couldn’t prove him wrong $5 million after that guy proved him wrong, and after he went to court to try to avoid paying the money, Lindell will now have to pay some of that guy’s attorneys fees, which were incurred in court.
There's nothing technically wrong with it, it's just really awkwardly worded.
The writing is so convoluted.
Run it through ChatGPT at the very least, good god.
It's probably convuluted because some lazy/cheap asshole also thinks ChatGPT is competent at literally anything. May as well have Google Translate do your Spanish homework.
Imagine going from smoking crack, to making millions selling shitty pillows at Walmart, to losing it all for Donald Trump. What a loser.
Weird loser*
Hell of a life story though.
They left the best part out of the headline
Business Insider reports that, in addition to the $5 million, Lindell will also have to pay the guy’s attorney fees. A federal judge has ordered Lindell to pay Zeidman $4,508 in attorney fees. Zeidman had initially sought as much as $12,800 for approximately 16 billed hours, but the judge ruled that some of Zeidman’s legal discovery requests were “overly broad”
His lawyer bills $800/hr? Jesus Christ, who did he hire? That seems insane to me.
Good lawyers aren't cheap, and in the grand scheme of things are well worth the money when they win.
That’s not super high. Maybe a teensy bit above average, but every speciality is different. Some fields of law bill at just a few hundred bucks an hour, while others regularly go that high.
I'm just glad his commercials have disappeared from the crappy over the air TV stations I watch.
Does someone know the details how he proved him wrong (in a nutshell…)?
TLDR he provided a bunch of packet captures “proving” voting traffic was going to non American IPs. His captures where shown to have been faked because the packet checksums didn’t match, but only on the packets showing traffic going to non American IPs.
Lindell provided data that turned out to be totally irrelevant to his claims
And the data was provided by someone who had a long history of fraud
Finding out can get hella expensive!
This is sweet justice. Lindell had a bunch of nonsense data and this dude proved it easily. Oh, fuck, I just realized I’m pretty tired. Lemme go lay my head on NotHisPillow.
#NotMyPillow
You mean his best friend Donald Trump didn't bail him out? 🙀
