MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell broke down in court this week, telling a judge he has no money left to pay the sanctions imposed against him in a defamation case brought by voting technology company Smartmatic.
“I’m in ruins,” Lindell said tearfully during a virtual hearing before U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols on Wednesday, according to a report from ABC News. “I borrowed everything I can. Nobody will lend me any money anymore.”
Lindell was ordered to pay $56,369 in sanctions to Smartmatic, which sued him for defamation in 2022 over his baseless claims that the company helped rig the 2020 presidential election against Donald Trump.
[Judge] Nichols asked Lindell on Wednesday for proof that he was in financial ruin. He described Lindell’s claims as “non-verifiable” and gave him until Friday to submit proof he was bankrupt.
Good. I bet the fucker has plenty of money stashed away.
Lindell told Nichols his only possessions were two homes and a truck he was trying to sell for cash.
Two homes, mother fucker, two. That’s two more than a lot of people. Judge needs to make him sell both homes and the truck and assign a forensic accountant to make sure he doesn’t have anything hidden anywhere. Leave him just enough to buy this place.
He also has a TV network he could shutter
Oh, shit, I guess somebody actually did get consequences. I wonder if this guy’s problem is that he didn’t realize it’s all a grift.
Ask Rudy about consequences.
Let’s all remember that this is part of the theater. Mike Lindell is not broke, and has access to all the money he needs. Mike Lindell won’t miss a meal, or sacrifice any comfort. He doesn’t want to pay the money he owes, and crying before thd judge is a calculated disinformation campaign to make it seem like the reasonable people have scored a victory. You’ll recognize victory when you’re viewing it through the bars of a prison cell.
Using the Alexa Jones method, he did the same thing
He’ll be ok on social security. It’s a good thing he hasn’t aided people who are dismantling the safety nets…
56k is worth tears to this rich nazi* pillow fluffer?
With the company that had 1,500 employees and bought “an average of $1 million in ads per week on Fox”?
*the nazi thing:
On September 20, 2024, MyPillow posted an advertisement on X (formerly Twitter) for a sale on their classic pillow. The sale price was $14.88, which critics have noted is a common Nazi dog whistle known as the Fourteen Words. Numerous white supremacist accounts praised MyPillow and Mike Lindell in response. Lindell has denied that there was any hidden meaning behind the price, calling it a media hit job.
He could just ask Kyle Rittenhouse for some of that money back.
Let me know when he’s seen living in a cardboard box. Until then, it’s probably bullshit.
Croc tears you bitch pillow boy
Thoughts and prayers fuccko
Im in Canada and this discount store near me that sells clothes from liquidations, must have gotten a truck load cause they have my pillows for $5. I don’t know how they ended up in Canada but im guessing some trailer park boys style smuggling run
The Swayze Express does it again!
Must have been that greasy Samsquatch!
Good. What a fucking piece of shit. Well deserved.
How’s it feel to be thrown to the wolfs dipshit?
To other dipshits sucking farts, you are not special. Once your usefulness comes to an end you’re a nobody who no one will rescue. This should be common sense, what do you do with a pen that has run out of ink? You’re all disposable to king trump.
Go call a waaah-mbulance.
I know what he can do. Set up an Only Fans of him crying about how bad he has it. He can charge a dollar a month and before you know it, he’ll be able to pay some of his creditors.
