US President Donald Trump has publicly urged the Justice Department to take action against his political adversaries, highlighting perceived inaction against California Senator Adam Schiff and New York Attorney General Letitia James. In a social media post directed at "Pam," presumably Attorney General Pam Bondi, Trump expressed concern over the lack of prosecutions, stating, "We can't delay any longer, it's killing our reputation and credibility," reflecting a view that legal accountability is essential for restoring the agency's credibility, which he believes has been compromised, according to Channel News Asia, The Jakarta Post, and Le Monde.

In a notable move, Trump fired Erik Siebert, the federal prosecutor overseeing the investigation into James, after Siebert reportedly indicated there was insufficient evidence for charges against her related to mortgage fraud. Trump claimed there was a "GREAT CASE" to be made against James, suggesting support from legal experts. Following this, he announced the appointment of Lindsey Halligan, a White House aide, to replace Siebert, emphasizing her capabilities as a "tough, smart, and loyal attorney" in a context where Trump's legal challenges are mounting, as reported by Channel News Asia and The Jakarta Post.

Trump's history with Schiff and James has been contentious, particularly during his presidency, where Schiff led the impeachment trials against him, accusing Trump of pressuring foreign interference in the electoral process. The impeachment charges stemmed from Trump’s actions surrounding Ukraine and allegations of incitement during the January 6 Capitol assault, where he was ultimately acquitted in both trials. Trump’s political narrative includes claims of being targeted unjustly through various investigations, bolstering his argument that these are politically motivated efforts to undermine him, according to The Jakarta Post and Le Monde.

Legal battles continue to mount for Trump, who has been convicted of multiple felonies, including those related to hush money payments and has been subjected to a US$83.3 million penalty for defaming E. Jean Carroll, whom he was found to have sexually assaulted. Despite these challenges, Trump maintains his assertion that all actions against him are "over nothing" and insists that "JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!", reflecting a persistent grievance against his political foes and the justice system, according to Channel News Asia, The Jakarta Post, and Le Monde.
