Donald Trump’s drive to punish his political enemies may be hitting a roadblock—himself.
According to a new report from Zeteo, top aides inside the White House are seething over the president’s tendency to blurt out private strategy in public. Officials say he’s torpedoing his own agenda with off-the-cuff Truth Social rants that read more like courtroom evidence than presidential messaging.
The tipping point came on Sept. 20, when Trump blasted out a fiery post demanding prosecutions of James Comey, Rep. Adam Schiff, and New York Attorney General Letitia James. In the post, he scolded Attorney General Pam Bondi for dragging her feet and insisted his personal lawyer Lindsey Halligan be installed as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.
“They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done,” Trump fumed. “We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility.”
Bondi complied, and Halligan promptly brought charges against Comey—accusing the former FBI director of obstruction and making false statements during 2020 Senate testimony about the Russia probe. But Trump’s critics inside his own circle now worry his social media meltdown could backfire badly.
One senior official told Zeteo they believe the post was meant as a private message to Bondi but was mistakenly made public. “WHY??” the appointee raged. “There is no need to do the defense’s work for them.”
Legal experts agree that Trump may have handed Comey ammunition. Retired federal Judge John Jones told CNN that while selective prosecution arguments almost never succeed, “It’s a better case for Comey, because the president won’t shut up. And that’s admissible, so he’s got a fighting chance.”
With Trump facing mounting scrutiny over whether his Justice Department is crossing into a personal revenge mission, his own words may end up being the greatest gift to the very enemies he’s trying to take down.

All these apparent criminals who have gotten away with horrible abuse are long overdue for their day in court to be sentenced for all the harm the caused not just to President Trump and His inner circle but acts of sedition. A Grand Conspiracy it appears to be starting with President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Clapper, Brennan, Comey, Rice, and a half dozens other who apparently assisted in the Russia collusion hoax, apparent lawfare, the raid on Mara-logo, disgusting behavior by government officials. This is the far worse than Watergate. FIE.
We also need class action lawsuits against Twitter/X, FaceBook, YouTube, etc. and their censors for banning conservatives, preventing them from speaking freely about election issues and thus corrupting the elections and doing election interference!
