Trump asks Supreme Court to revive Hillary Clinton case

Original: President Trump asks SCOTUS to revive Hillary Clinton case

President Trump has asked the US Supreme Court to reinstate a lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, according to SCOTUSblog. The filing asks the justices to revive the long-running case after lower courts dismissed it. The move renews a legal fight between the president and his former 2016 rival and is likely to draw scrutiny over the courts' willingness to take it up.

Why now: The president directly petitioning the Supreme Court against his former election rival is an unusual and politically charged legal move.
