Trump loses patience with Bondi, wants prosecution of opponents now

Donald Trump took aim at Pam Bondi in a post on Truth Social. In the post, he criticizes his U.S. Attorney General, whom he accuses of not prosecuting his political opponents quickly enough.

In his post on Truth Social, Donald Trump addresses Pam Bondi, pointing out that he has reread more than thirty statements and messages that, in his view, repeat “the same old story as last time”, namely the announcement of investigations with no real follow-up.

Trump writes in his post, “All talk, no action. Nothing is being done,” demanding accountability from Pam Bondi about, among others, his former FBI director James Comey, Democratic Senator Adam Schiff and New York State Attorney General Letitia James, who won a civil suit against him.

He adds further:

“What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia???”

Trump asserts that in his eyes, they are all guilty, but that no action will be taken against them.

James Comey

Donald Trump continues to target James Comey, the former FBI director he himself fired in 2017. Trump blames the former FBI boss for his handling of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign, which he deems politically motivated.

Several internal investigations, including one by the Justice Department’s inspector general, have criticized some of the agency’s practices, but they have not found any illegality on Comey’s part.

No charges have been brought against him.

Adam Schiff

Democratic Senator Adam Schiff, elected from California, is another recurring target of Donald Trump. The president blames him for his central role in the first impeachment proceedings against Trump in 2019, linked to the Ukraine affair.

Schiff led the hearings and argued in favor of impeaching Trump for abuse of power.

Trump accuses him of exaggerating and instrumentalizing certain elements, but no judicial investigation has ever been opened against him.

Letitia James

New York State Attorney General Letitia James has led several legal proceedings against Donald Trump and his organization.

She filed a civil lawsuit for financial fraud, accusing the Trump Organization of artificially inflating the value of its assets in order to obtain favorable credit terms.

In 2024, the New York courts sided with James, imposing heavy financial penalties on Trump and his companies.

Trump called the action a political prosecution, but the courts upheld its legality.

However, in August 2025, a New York state appeals court overturned the financial penalty (which amounted to over $500 million with interest), deeming it excessive under the U.S. Constitution. Despite this reversal, the court upheld the finding of fraud and other non-monetary penalties. Letitia James has formally announced that she will appeal this decision to the state’s highest court in an attempt to have the penalty reinstated.

Trump’s urgency to act

In this message published on Truth Social, Donald Trump insisted on the urgency to act, asserting that “we can’t delay any longer” and that this inertia is destroying the reputation and credibility of his camp:

“We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility.”

In his message, Donald Trump recalls that he has been impeached twice and indicted five times, proceedings he deems unfounded.

The president uses this argument to demand immediate prosecution of his opponents, a rhetoric that is part of a logic of political revenge:

“They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!”
