A federal judge on Thursday ordered former President Donald Trump and his attorneys to pay nearly $1 million in sanctions over a "frivolous" lawsuit they filed against Hillary Clinton.
Trump last year filed a sprawling lawsuit against Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, multiple former FBI agents and two other dozen entities, accusing them of conspiring to undermine his 2016 presidential campaign with claims tying him to Russia. U.S. District Judge Donald Middlebrooks, a Bill Clinton appointee, dismissed the lawsuit in September, writing that what Trump's lawsuit "lacks in substance and legal support it seeks to substitute with length, hyperbole, and the settling of scores and grievances.'
