Trump Shares NY Post Story on Whistleblower Allegations Against AG Letitia James

President Donald Trump shared a New York Post story on Saturday regarding a whistleblower who claims New York Attorney General Letitia James directed her team of prosecutors to pursue investigations against Trump without sufficient evidence. Daniel Wiesenfeld, a prosecutor in the Investor Protection Bureau, alleged that he was instructed by a superior to continue investigating Trump in search of information related to his finances and associations. Wiesenfeld stated that the team felt 'exasperated' by the pressure to find evidence, attributing the directive to James. He remarked, 'Tish was the boss and what Tish wanted, Tish got.' Trump shared the story with his 13 million followers on Truth Social, highlighting the whistleblower's comments. Wiesenfeld was reportedly placed on leave following conflicts with his supervisor and for discussing internal pressures within the office. An earlier report from the Albany Times-Union referenced emails from Wiesenfeld that indicated he was ordered to seek incriminating evidence against individuals associated with Trump. Additionally, a New York appeals court overturned a $454 million civil fraud judgment against Trump in August 2025, deeming the penalty excessive.
