Keep up the great work. Good luck on the Show! President DJT.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time Trump has apparently shared a private message on his public account. On Sept. 20, Trump publicly posted a private-seeming note to then-Attorney General Pam Bondi in which he urged her to prosecute his perceived enemies like former FBI Director James Comey, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and New York Attorney General Letitia James.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, \u2018same old story as last time, all talk, no action,\u201d Trump wrote at the time. \u201cNothing is being done.
