A federal judge on Thursday ordered that former president Donald Trump and FBI Director Christopher A. Wray can be questioned under oath by attorneys for two former senior FBI employees who allege in separate lawsuits that they were illegally targeted for retribution after the FBI investigated Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election.

Strzok seeks reinstatement and back pay over what he alleges was his unfair termination for criticizing Trump, who was then in office.

Wow. Trump needs and assistant just to keep track of all the lawsuits against him.
 
A recent interview in which Trump bragged about firing those FBI officials may have factored into the judge’s ruling.

“If I didn’t fire Comey, and if I didn’t fire McCabe and Strzok and Page and all of that scum that was in there, you would have had, they were trying to do an overthrow,” Trump said Feb. 2 on the Hugh Hewitt Show,

Gonna pay for my subscription so I can read the article?
 
I seriously doubt either can call Trump as a witness unless they have some proof that he was in the loop on their getting fired, and I seriously doubt that to be the case.

Does anyone give a shit as to your opinion when you know zilch about the law?
I doubt these people would go through the time, trouble and expense if their attorneys didn't think they had a solid case.

That's a link to the interview. I didn't read the entire transcript, but it should be in there if that was said.

“They spied on my campaign, and I got rid of them all. … But … it was more than them, and you know that. And you know that’s coming again.”

Here's his full answer from the show transcript:

DJT: Yeah, he took a little bit more credit than he should, but that’s okay with me. It’s all, you know, going to the same, because we did, we did a great job. I got along very well with Mike. But we did a great job. This country has never been run so well. This country, despite the COVID and all of the things, and all of what you read yesterday in that report. Don’t forget, these guys, before I even got in, they were spying on my campaign, long before I got in. This didn’t just happen. And if I didn’t fire Comey, and if I didn’t fire McCabe and Strzok and Page and all of that scum that was in there, you would have had, they were trying to do an overthrow. And they, just think of it. They spied on my campaign from the time I came down the escalator. And here I am, innocently running to do something great, and I have this garbage that’s in there headed up by Comey and the group. They spied on my campaign, and I got rid of them all. I got rid of them all. But it was more than them. It was more than them, and you know that. And you know that’s coming again.

Page and Strzok better hope they can prove that Trump didn't have the cause he cited for firing them. The alternative is, if Trump does have that proof, Page and Strzok are opening themselves up to additional federal criminal charges. Sometimes, it's better to let sleeping dogs lie...

I believe Biden already reinstated Strock's pension.

The judge's ruling says both Ray and Trump will need to sit for a 2 hour deposition with a narrow window of topics. The judge also gave the Biden administration until March 24th to decide if they wanted to invoke executive privilege on the topics.
