FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino on Saturday revealed there is a Deep State investigation going on behind the scenes.

Bongino, referring to the weaponization of intelligence operations, said what he has seen has shocked him to his core.

“I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned,” Bongino said on X.

Full statement from Bongino:

During my tenure here as the Deputy Director of the FBI, I have repeatedly relayed to you that things are happening that might not be immediately visible, but they are happening.

The Director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations. It is a priority for us. But what I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core. We cannot run a Republic like this. I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.

We are going to conduct these righteous and proper investigations by the book and in accordance with the law. We are going to get the answers WE ALL DESERVE. As with any investigation, I cannot predict where it will land, but I can promise you an honest and dignified effort at truth. Not “my truth,” or “your truth,” but THE TRUTH.

God bless America, and all those who defend Her. Respectfully, Dan

Dan can't comment on specifics due to an ongoing investigation.

“””Dan can’t comment on specifics due to an ongoing investigation.”””””

I expect there are quite a few people that really needed Harris to win to keep this buried.

More motion with no action to follow.

[af_vet_1981]

Very happy Dan Bongino did not resign; I voted for this.

[Fester Chugabrew]

The wheels of justice...

[Zathras]

At least Dan now realizes what we have known for decades.
“Seven Days in May” is very real

[lee martell]

“The Director and I are committed”.

That must mean, Dan is remaining in his role, at least for now. Good. I was hoping he would. Less disruption, less uncertainty to everyone in that judicial branch of the government.

[eeriegeno]

But Dan can comment on the overall picture if there was one!

[RWGinger]

I hope this actually goes somewhere. We have had a lot of dramatic announcements that went no where

[gloryblaze]

But Dan can comment on the overall picture if there was one!

I think that is what he is doing here. "Let's not get ahead of ourselves."

[WASCWatch]

The wheels of justice are not going to turn slowly in this case.

Just don’t appoint a Special Prosecutor. Bondi needs to keep this in house and under her thumb. Besides, the is no special prosecutor statute at this time; and I don’t think Trump will never allow one again.

[Responsibility2nd]

We cannot run a Republic like this. I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.

This is why decent and smart people stay out of politics, And those good and decent people who do enter this Ninth Circle of Hell are traumatized.

[PGR88]

I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.

Please tell me, so I can't ever be the same too.

[PGR88]

This is why decent and smart people stay out of politics,

And conversely, why psychopaths are increasingly attracted to politics. The bigger the government >>> the more power at stake >>> the more disputes become existential >>> the more psychopaths are found in government.

*********************************
What supposedly shocked him? Everyone on FR already was well aware of the weaponization of intelligence with regards to RussiaGate and the endless lawfare perpetuated against Trump. It’s been going on for some time and shouldn’t be surprising to anyone. To me this just sounds like another “trust the plan” thing. In other words he’s saying don’t pester us as to what we’re doing just accept the fact that we are working behind the scenes to correct matters.

[silent majority rising]

I still believe that that was a smoke screen to hide many things that he is working on. It worked, because it kept the DS pre-occupied with it. I think Trump is playing them like a violin and will start dropping truth bombs on Truth and X, very selectively (the Bomber is lining up for the drop).

[delta7]

What supposedly shocked him?

The massive corruption and evil embedded in all our .gov agencies to our Congress.

I’m not looking for “truth “

I am looking for PAIN

Bongino was specifically referring to this. If he was talking about government fraud elsewhere in the government he would have phrased things differently.
