A company owned by Minnesota pillow magnate Mike Lindell must pay $5 million to a man who proved him wrong, a federal court ruled Wednesday.

In 2021, the outspoken supporter of former President Donald Trump issued the “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge at a South Dakota election fraud symposium — showcasing data purportedly proving the People’s Republic of China had interfered with the 2020 U.S. election.

Engineer Robert Zeidman — a Trump supporter himself — picked up the poly-foam gauntlet thrown down by the QVC star. Despite a less-than-stalwart belief in his own abilities, Zeidman won the contest.
