This is the best summary I could come up with:

Federal Judge orders MyPillow founder, Mike Lindell, to pay $5 million within 30 days for losing an election challenge. Lindell, known for denying the 2020 election results, had hosted a contest to prove his claims but lost. Despite Lindell's intention to appeal, he must pay up immediately. Lindell claims financial hardship, stating his company organized the event, not him personally, and he has minimal assets. The dispute arose when Lindell failed to provide promised evidence, leading to arbitration. While the judge expressed concerns about the arbitration panel's interpretation, he upheld the decision. Lindell's financial struggles extend beyond this case, including defamation lawsuits that drained his resources.
