Carter Page, the former foreign policy adviser to President Donald Trump’s 2016 election campaign, asked a Manhattan federal appeals court Friday to revive his terrorism and defamation claims against Yahoo News parent company Oath Inc. stemming from a 2016 article that claimed U.S. Intelligence officials were probing his possible ties with Russian officials.

Appearing pro se before a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, Page said the Yahoo article, which was republished by Huffington Post, had forced him into hiding, disrupted his business opportunities and violated the Anti-Terrorism Act by inspiring death threats against him. The Huffington Post, like Yahoo, is owned by Oath.
