A federal jury ruled that MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell spread false claims about a former Dominion Voting Systems employee following the 2020 election, effectively labeling his statements as defamation. The case stems from Lindell’s repeated promotion of baseless election fraud theories, which targeted Dominion and its workers.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about a wealthy businessman losing a lawsuit—it’s another legal blow to the broader misinformation campaign around the 2020 election. Lindell’s conspiracy theories had real consequences for individuals caught in the crossfire, and this verdict reinforces that spreading lies can come with serious legal repercussions. For Dominion, it’s another win in their effort to hold people accountable, but it also highlights how deep the fallout from election denialism goes.
