Over the past two weeks, The Gateway Pundit has covered the long-anticipated trial between Eric Coomer and Mike Lindell over allegations that Lindell defamed Coomer by platforming claims made that Coomer was “Eric from Dominion” on an Antifa call in September of 2020 where it was said that “Trump won’t win. I made f***ing sure of it.”
During the trial, Joe Oltmann, who claimed to be on the phone call, testified that he had contemporaneous notes of the call. However, Coomer’s attorneys argued there was no call.
During Oltmann’s cross examination, an affidavit from Tay Andersen in another case filed by Coomer not only confirmed the existence of the call, but also aligned with Oltmann’s notes in terms of what was discussed.
In the affidavit, Andersen stated that there was no “Eric from Dominion” on the call, however, the other topics mentioned were quite specific to Oltmann’s notes, including protests for Breonna Taylor and Antifa’s desires to go after Joey Camp for infiltrating their group’s events.
The Gateway Pundit reported on this the day the affidavit was revealed. You can read up on the rest of the case here, here, and here.
Following a three hour deliberation on Friday, followed by all day today, the jury reached a verdict.
In the defamation case in Colorado federal court between former Dominion Voting Director of Product Strategy and Security, a jury found Mike Lindell and Frankspeech liable for defamation, saying he engaged in civil conspiracy to broadcast the defamatory claims. Lindell was ordered to pay Coomer $2.3 million in damages, well short of the $62.7 million originally sought by Coomer’s attorneys.
MyPillow was not found liable.
NEW: MyPillowGuy Mike Lindell found liable for defamation for his statements about Dominion Voting Systems executive Eric Coomer. Federal jury orders Lindell to pay $2.3M, far less than the $62.7M requested by Coomer’s attorneys.
