"You know who got indicted? Trump replied. The man you're lookin' at. I got indicted, and I was innocent. And here I am, because I was able to beat all of the nonsense that was thrown at me. And yet, when you go after a dirty cop like Comey or a guy like Bolton, who I hear has I don't know anything about it I hear he took records all over the place, who knows? Letitia James is a terrible, dishonest person in my opinion."
"Did you instruct the Department of Justice to go after them? O'Donnell pressed. No, and not in any way, shape, or form. No, Trump said. You don't have to instruct 'em because they were so dirty, they were so crooked, that the honest people we have Pam Bondi's doing a very good job. Kash Patel's doing a very good job. The honest people that we have go after them automatically."
"But O'Donnell brought receipts. In a voiceover fact check, she added, In a Truth Social post from September addressed to Attorney General Pam Bondi, President Trump endorsed the idea that former FBI director James Comey and New York attorney general Letitia James, were, quote, Guilty as hell,' and wrote, quote, Justice must be served, now!!!.' Five days later, James Comey was indicted. He pled not guilty, and so did Letitia James, and President Trump's former national security advisor John Bolton. Watch the clip above via 60 Minutes."
President Donald Trump denied using the Department of Justice to punish political opponents while facing questions about recent indictments. Public figures James Comey, John Bolton, and New York Attorney General Letitia James were indicted and pled not guilty. Trump said he was previously indicted, maintained his innocence, and said he beat what he called nonsense. Trump labeled Comey and Letitia James corrupt and praised DOJ figures Pam Bondi and Kash Patel as honest. A Truth Social post to the Attorney General called Comey and Letitia James 'Guilty as hell' and demanded immediate justice shortly before an indictment.
