President Donald Trump urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to bring criminal charges against political enemies like Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and former FBI Director James Comey, saying further delays are only “killing our reputation and credibility.”
In a statement to his Truth Social platform Saturday night, the president turned up the heat on his attorney general to take “action” against Schiff, Comey, and New York Attorney General Letitia James — to name just a few. Here’s the shocking post in full:
“Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, ‘same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia?? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.’ Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT
In a follow-up post, Trump reiterated his support for Bondi — and added that Lindsey Halligan, who Trump referenced in his prior post, will be nominated to take over as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Erik Siebert announced plans to resign from that post amid reported pressure from top Trump administration officials to bring a case against James.
“Pam Bondi is doing a GREAT job as Attorney General of the United States,” Trump wrote. “She is very careful, very smart, loves our Country, but needs a tough prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, like my recommendation, Lindsey Halligan, to get things moving. What we don’t need is a Democrat Endorsed ‘Republican.’ I will be nominating Lindsey Halligan to be the United States Attorney in this very important part of our Great Country. She will be Fair, Smart, and will provide, desperately needed, JUSTICE FOR ALL!”
Halligan is a former personal attorney for Trump who currently serves in his administration as a special assistant.
The president has ripped Comey and Schiff in the past for pushing bogus claims he colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election. Trump, in 2023, called Schiff a “sleazebag and traitor” who “should be prosecuted for the damage he has done” to the U.S. And Trump has criticized Comey a number of times for leading what he has called the Russia “witch hunt” over the years.
Bondi, meanwhile, was already called out this week by many prominent conservatives, including The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh, for saying she would target “hate speech” against slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Walsh said Bondi should be fired for that comment, as well as her claim that businesses must allow customers to print posters honoring Kirk.
