NEW: Though DOJ's paid a $1.25 mil settlement to former Trump adviser Carter Page for what it called the Obama regime's "political sham" investigation of Page as a "Russian agent" inclg illegal wiretaps, individual lawsuits against the ex-FBI officials who signed off on the FISA spying (despite knowing it was predicated on a debunked Hillary-funded dossier)--Comey, McCabe, Clinesmith, Strzok, Lisa Page, Pientka, Somma and Auten--remain unresolved; and they have until Wednesday to respond to Page's SCOTUS petition after several delays. They recently asked the high bench for another extension, their fourth. Page first filed his suit in 2020.
