WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump intended his recent Truth Social post imploring Attorney General Pam Bondi to take legal action against his opponents as a direct message, according to a Trump administration official.

Trump was surprised to learn he had actually posted the message to his Truth Social account, the source said, adding that the president reacted by saying "Oh," and then tried to shrug it off.

The Wall Street Journal first reported that Trump meant the post as a direct message.

The lengthy post on Sept. 20 addressed Bondi as "Pam" and expressed frustration that "nothing is being done" to his foes.

"What about Comey, Adam 'Shifty' Schiff, Leticia???" he wrote, referring to former FBI Director James Comey, Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
