FBI's Dan Bongino thinking of resigning after clash with AG Pam Bondi over Epstein files fallout: Source

Another source told Fox News Digital Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have been in touch several times and are on the same page

FBI deputy director Dan Bongino is considering resigning over the Justice Department's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, a source told Fox News Digital, noting that Bongino took a day off from work on Friday due to his frustrations.

Bongino has not been seen in the office since Wednesday, a source told Fox News Digital. He has yet to make a final decision about his future, the source said.

The latest revelation comes on the heels of a heated argument between Bongino and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi that occurred on Wednesday at the White House, two sources confirmed.

Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have been in touch several times during the past few days and are on the same page, a source told Fox News Digital.

Sources close to Bondi say she has no intention of stepping down and is proud of the department and its work. Patel, too, says he is happy with his job and has no intention of leaving, a source in close contact with the director told Fox News Digital.

"President Trump has assembled a highly qualified and experienced law and order team dedicated to protecting Americans, holding criminals accountable, and delivering justice to victims. This work is being carried out seamlessly and with unity," White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields told Fox News Digital. "Any attempt to sow division within this team is baseless and distracts from the real progress being made in restoring public safety and pursuing justice for all."

I know a previous article from CNN has been posted. Many don't trust CNN. Can you blame them?

Was that “source” an official, office staff or just cleaning personnel ?

It is so hard to figure out why Trump’s administration wants to cover up Epstein’s client lists. I just cannot figure it out for the life of me.

That would be a sad ending for Dan Bongino.
I read how thrilled he was to be hired for this very position.
If Trump wants Dan to stay on, now would be the time to make that crystal clear to him. Silence, on this topic at this time, would be interpreted to mean the president is fine with Bongino going.

If he does decide to walk away from this position, I hope he can resist quickly jumping back onto a podcast, for the purposes of trashing Pam Bondi or other areas of this administration. Wait a few months, Dan. Cool yourself down first, before you blurt out the hurt in a way you cannot walk back.

Or, if there a prosecutable cases he and Kash see being squashed, go Whistleblower and let’s just get to it on the filth running DC. Trump is only one person. I manage 12 at my job and it’s hard enough keeping up on everything.

I like his replacement, Vince, more than Dan. Vince has a better delivery and
is more professional.

“Asked by Wolff, “How do you know all this?” Epstein replied, “I was Donald’s closest friend for 10 years.”

“That would be a sad ending for Dan Bongino.”

*************

Not necessarily. Resigning on the basis of his principles and stated views would make him a huge folk hero. Like never before. How many people coming to DC ever do that? They all sell out to the Swamp. He would be have a following like you can’t imagine.
