FBI Deputy Director Bongino Has Had Enough of the Thomas Massie Nonsense
The Last Refuge ^ | November 13, 2025 | Sundance

Posted on 11/13/2025 1:04:42 PM PST by SoConPubbie

Representative Thomas Massie is one of the primary Alligator Emoji antagonists. His intended mission is always to undermine efforts by any MAGA policy or objective, and to sow division in order to maintain his purpose on behalf of people who do not have America’s interests in mind.

Thomas Massie has been bad news for a long time and is ABSOLUTELY, UNDENIABLY a walking visible representation of the attitude, disposition and intents of the narrow-minded tribe that travels under the DeSantis banner.

Yesterday, in his latest operation to divide the MAGA base, which is his primary mission – and has been for a long time, Thomas Massie used the background sentiment of distrust in the FBI, which is valid – but in this example also serves his purpose, to claim the FBI was targeting ‘whistleblowers’ who have grifted themselves into optimal financial position around the issue of the J6 pipe bomber.

[SOURCE]

At a certain point, everyone eventually gets sick of the Massie operation. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has reached that point.

[BONGINO – X] “Congressman Massie, When Director Patel and I entered on duty in our leadership positions in the FBI we had our hands full, but we were happy to be part of the President’s team, and we still are.

Despite the multitude of challenges we faced, one of our first initiatives was to aggressively pursue a new strategy to investigate the January 6 pipe bomb, terror attack. We brought in new personnel to take a look at the case, we flew in police officers and detectives working as TFOs (task force officers) to review FBI work, we conducted multiple internal reviews, held countless in person and SVTC meetings with investigative team members, we dramatically increased investigative resources, and we increased the public award for information in the case to utilize crowd-sourcing leads.”

“This is only a small sample of the work the FBI personnel and leadership team have put into this critical investigation.

When I spoke with you yesterday a little after 8am ET (screenshots attached), I offered you an in-person brief on our work. We spoke for ten minutes.

I called you back a bit after 7:30pm ET to again make that offer. You didn’t answer and have yet to call me back.
Despite this, you continue to imply that the Director and I are targeting investigators in the case. This is disgusting, even by the low standards many have for politicians. You know my number, and you’re free to call me anytime. But it’s easier to tweet and throw BS bombs.

Yes, our leadership team will be meeting with FBI team members today, and we will avail them of all the whistleblower resources they need to disclose ANY evidence of malfeasance in the prior administration. And we will ask about threads that may have gone un-pulled under prior leadership, because we are passionate about solving this case.

But a week of near 24-hour work on RECENT open-source leads in the case has yet to produce a breakthrough, and some of the media reporting regarding prior persons of interest is grossly inaccurate and serves only to mislead the public.

I proudly serve in this administration, and I proudly work with Director Patel to reform and advance the crime fighting and national security missions of the FBI. We would love to have you as a partner in this mission, rather than a dog barking behind a fence.” {SOURCE}

While I have my differences with positions and actions of the FBI for a long time, what Massie is trying to do with this pre-existing, background sentiment deserves the full pushback he is receiving from Deputy Director Dan Bongino.

Massie has been playing a game for a long time. It is a toxic and divisive game, and he deserves full dispatch.

Massie ain’t doing a GD thing but make himself look good at the expense of President Trump. He is a clueless wanna be and completely worthless rep.

No I hate him. Not going to lie, I want him gone in the next election. He is a needless distraction.

You might be insulting dirtbags with that remark. I think he is lower than that.

If someone on your side keeps shooting you in the back, then you get rid of them.

"(Thomas Massie is) the one Republican that you can respect right now." - Joy Behar, The View

-------------------------------------------------------

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4315688/posts

A bill aimed at cracking down on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its practice of forced organ harvesting passed with overwhelming support on Wednesday – though one House lawmaker voted against it.

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., was the lone Republican to oppose the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act, which passed 406-1.

"It's just another example of us trying to stick our nose in another country's business and write their laws," Massie told Fox News Digital after the vote. "And at the end of the day, they're gonna do what they're gonna do, and it's just sort of a virtue signal over here."

...

But his pushback is also notable now given his status as an open critic of Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and at times, of President Donald Trump.

The bill was introduced by Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., and would authorize the Secretary of State to deny U.S. passports and visitor visas to people involved in organ trafficking circles.

It would also call for sanctions on entities and individuals found to have participated in the gruesome illicit industry.

--------------------------------------------------------

^I guess AIPAC and "The Joos" caused all of this, too.

----------------------------------------

"I don’t get the hate. Massie is quite likely the best Congressman right now, bar none. All of the hate for him started when he refused to bow down to AIPAC." - billakay

Just remember when they vote with the democrats it’s only because they are just so damn conservative.

Bears repeating.

Oh but but but Massie is a Constitutionalist, they say. He is just doing his job for the country.

By voting with the democrats on every major vote.

We were repeatedly told by Bongino that the pipe bombs were an inside job (meaning someone in the FBI did it)

Stay on topic, would you? All this Epstein crap is just that. There's more important things for Bongino and the others to worry aboutl

Your petty concerns are not theirs.....Sheesh!

I have seen that every time people talk like this that they hate Jews and attack Israel anytime they get. You are not fooling anyone.

We see through the hate.

Your hate is showing, and we are not fooled. The anti-Semies are taking over FR. I see more and more of this trash every day.

Yes - and pushing bills that violate separation of powers by aligning entirely with the full Dem caucus on a discharge petition - more evidence of constitutional reverence.

Yes, the posting history of that person you are responding to is evidence enough of that.

Whatever... Bongino and Kash and Blondie are in full coverup mode about the Capitol Police woman who placed the bombs. She will never be arrested and we all know it. The FACT that the Capitol Police and FBI, combined with Pelosi and the CIA to conduct the January 6 scam.
They will completely get away with it.

The hell with them. GO MASSEY!

They are conspiring, after the fact, to break the law. They have not arrested a single FBI agent or informant who were provocateurs and lead the crowd into the buildings, also not that female Capitol Police woman who set the hoax bombs.

Kash and Blondie are indeed conspirators now. I think Bongino is over head and is caught in the Kash and Blondie frag pattern.
