Trump appeals to Supreme Court to revive dismissed 2016 election lawsuit against Hillary Clinton

President Donald Trump filed an appeal with the Supreme Court on Friday asking it to revive his 2022 lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, and others, alleging they conspired to undermine his 2016 campaign by tying it to Russia. A federal district court dismissed the suit and imposed nearly $1 million in sanctions against Trump and attorney Alina Habba, ruling the case was frivolous. The 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal and sanctions, prompting Trump's Supreme Court appeal.
