Giuliani's RNC Trip Funded by Lindell's Media Platform Amid Bankruptcy Scrutiny

In a significant legal development, conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell's company has been ordered to pay attorney’s fees following litigation related to his 2020 election fraud claims. A federal judge previously awarded $5 million to Robert Zeidman, who successfully challenged Lindell’s assertions in the "Prove Mike Wrong" contest. Lindell Management has since filed an appeal to overturn this ruling. Recently, a federal magistrate judge ordered the company to pay an additional $4,508 in attorney’s fees to Zeidman, who had initially sought $12,800. The judge noted that Zeidman’s discovery requests were overly broad, contributing to the costs incurred. In a separate matter, Rudy Giuliani's recent trip to Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention was funded by Lindell's media platform, FrankSpeech. Giuliani's attorney disclosed this information in a bankruptcy court, clarifying that both his flight and hotel expenses were covered by Lindell’s company. This statement was made to counter rumors that Giuliani had personally financed the trip. The former New York City mayor is currently embroiled in bankruptcy proceedings, owing approximately $150 million to various creditors, including election workers he defamed. Creditors are scrutinizing Giuliani's financial activities, particularly his expenditures during the RNC. Lindell defended his decision to cover Giuliani's travel costs, stating that all hosts of his platform are flown first class. Meanwhile, Giuliani continues to make unsubstantiated claims regarding the legal representation of the election workers, asserting without evidence that they are funded by political adversaries.
