00:00Bondi shuts down Trump's rant about indicting political foe.

00:04President Donald Trump tried to get Attorney General Pam Bondi to weigh in on a reported

00:08grand jury investigation into Senator Adam Schiff, but she quickly shut him down.

00:14NBC News previously reported that Department of Justice sources indicated grand juries

00:19would investigate Schiff and New York Attorney General Letitia James for alleged mortgage

00:23fraud.

00:24At a recent White House briefing, a reporter asked the president about Schiff.

00:28There's a report as a grand jury on Adam Schiff for apparent mortgage fraud, the reporter

00:33said.

00:34Wow, Trump responded.

00:36If he is indicted, should he step down as a U.S. senator, the reporter asked.

00:41The president replied, well, you know, I'm not going to comment on that.

00:44I will just say Adam Schiff is one of the lowest forms of scum I've ever dealt with in politics.

00:49Trump continued his criticism, adding, he's a horrible human being, a very dishonest person.

00:55I have no idea what's going on.

00:57You're telling me he's going to be indicted.

00:59I don't know.

01:00You could ask Pam.

01:01I don't know if she could say it.

01:02Probably you are allowed to say it, but I wouldn't know about that.

01:05I can only tell you.

01:06He's very bad.

01:08I think he's actually a sick person.

01:10He then turned to Bondi and asked if she wanted to comment.

01:13To which she replied, we're not going to comment on any grand jury that's open.

01:17We can't, legally.

01:19I don't know.

01:20By the way, I hope it's true, but I don't know anything about it.

01:23Trump concluded, prompting laughter from the room.

01:26According to MSNBC, the U.S. attorney in Maryland informed the DOJ that she found no grounds to prosecute Schiff.
