Donald Trump made clear on Saturday evening that he is frustrated with his attorney general over her hesitance to bring politically-motivated criminal cases against a list of the president’s enemies, something the White House has been working to engineer on flimsy pretenses for months.

The president issued a Truth Social post on Saturday addressed to Pam Bondi, the U.S. attorney general, stating that he’d reviewed numerous reports from the Department of Justice apparently stating that no progress was being made on launching the prosecutions after criminal referrals were sent to Bondi’s team by William Pulte, an official at the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

In the post, which began “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,’” Trump assumes the guilt of Sen. Adam Schiff and others like Federal Reserve board member Lisa Cook, and demands that Bondi begin criminal prosecutions without “delay.”

    See, the problem with prosecuting people who follow the law is that they follow the law. So, she won’t find anything to charge them with, Trump will throw a tantrum and fire her, then replace her with another dizzy blonde with big b**bs.

      Uh oh, you just insulted the memory of Charlie Kirk. The secret service is on their way now because free speech is dead and this is what the U.S. voted for.

          We are. It’s not enough, we need more people. That’s why we’re still talking about it. Fuck out of here with this shit.

    The interesting thing about narcissists is that they don’t know what they are. The world is a very hostile and confusing place for someone who has something like dementia or narcissism. We shouldn’t lose our humanity and compassion for anybody but we can’t have this. At the very least it’s obviously unsustainable to have mental orange grandpa and his handpicked stooges at the helm. It’s not a question of if but when this regime collapses under its own weight of bullshit.

        No compassion for fascism but every fascist was once a small child, seeking love and attention. They didn’t deserve to be mistreated but they eventually became a monstrous person that we now have to defend against without also losing our own humanity in the process.

    It’s gonna be a wild ride of justice if AOC-style democrats ever get this kind of power. I just cannot believe that a party that has held 50% (±5) of the power for centuries can lose all of it. That kinda base doesn’t just go away unless somebody actually destroys it.
