FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino promised the release of new video from the cell bay housing sexual predator and human trafficker Jeffrey Epstein around the time of his suicide to prove “no one was there but him.” Epstein’s 2019 death at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City was ruled a suicide, but has been the subject of prevailing conspiracy theories suggesting that he was murdered because of his networking with high-profile celebrities and business people. Bongino’s comments come after he and FBI Director Kash Patel came under fire from the MAGA crowd for having dismissed conspiracy theories about...

Thank you for your patience. Apparently, public backlash from the Kash Patel and Dan Bongino interview with Maria Bartiromo has penetrated the membrane around them. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announces the FBI “reform teams” will likely be in place next week. From there, they will begin reviewing subjects of interest to the American people, including: (1) the J6 pipe bomber, (2) the White House cocaine user, and (3) the Dobbs leaker. ... The Director and I will have most of our incoming reform teams in place by next week. The hiring process can take a little bit of time,...

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is under fire after retweeting a video of FBI official Stanley Meador, a man still employed by the bureau despite being at the center of a scandal involving the profiling of traditionalist Catholics as potential domestic extremists and potential white supremacist recruits. Stanley Meador is the Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the FBI’s Richmond Field Office, who oversaw the creation of a controversial internal FBI memorandum that labeled certain “radical-traditionalist Catholics” as potential domestic terrorism threats. The video, originally posted by the FBI’s Richmond Field Office, shows Meador addressing the “764” group, a violent...

The American people are left in the dark on a whole host of things. Sadly, it’s almost become commonplace. So, when a major catastrophe occurs, we’re usually getting half-truths, scripted responses, and total political spin jobs. Or hey, sometimes we get absolutely nothing, like what went down in Las Vegas when a supposed “lone gunman” opened fire on country music concertgoers. Actually, we recently published an interesting update on that very story and shared more of the coverup with our readers, thanks to investigative work from an independent journalist: ‘They slaughtered us like fish in a barrel’—citizen reporter exposes Vegas...

Speaking in an episode of his show that came shortly before his confirmation as the second in command at the FBI, Dan Bongino delivered an epic warning to Russiagate-promoting Senator Adam Schiff. The woke Democrat was warned that he would face retribution for attempting to distort the democratic process by smearing President Trump. Commenters online loved the clip Bongino posted on X, celebrating the idea that the now-FBI Deputy Director will be going after much-disliked Adam Schiff. For reference, the Russian collusion narrative, which claimed that Trump was in league with the Russian government, was ubiquitous during his first term....

Dan Bongino, a distinguished former Secret Service agent and fervent patriot, was officially sworn in today as the Deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). “This morning, Dan Bongino has officially been sworn into the FBI. America, say hello to your new Deputy FBI Chief— the deep state’s worst nightmare has arrived,” Rep. Anna Paulina Luna announced on X. In his new role, Bongino will serve under FBI Director Kash Patel, another steadfast ally in the mission to rejuvenate the bureau’s core mission of upholding the rule of law. President Trump, in his announcement on Truth Social, lauded...

Dan Bongino warned Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) that he should be concerned about his future as President Donald Trump’s FBI gears up to root out corruption within the agency. Trump announced that Bongino would serve as deputy director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation under FBI Director Kash Patel, a move that would likely be the nail in the coffin for deep state actors within the bureau. Bongino made it clear that he has no intention of forgetting the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, which Schiff propagated during Trump’s first term. The former Secret Service agent and soon-to-be FBI deputy director warned...

Michael Shellenberger @shellenberger FBI whistleblower @GOBactual confirmed to me that a source inside FBI said FBI employees were destroying evidence on servers, and that he informed @Kash_Patel I hope he & @AGPamBondi @JohnRatcliffe @elonmusk @realannapaulina are preventing this. We urgently need disclosure!

“The job of the president, goes the message from all the insiders, is to PRETEND to be in charge but not actually do anything meaningful." —Jeffrey Tucker James Howard Kunstler Feb 24, 2025 CBS’s 60-Minutes show was at it again Sunday night in the most prime primetime weekend news slot on the old broadcast spectrum — Sunday at 7:00, the power-hour of national mind-fu**ery — with blob PR-agent Scott Pelley singing the blues over the systematic disassembly of the rogue bureaucracy. Trouble is, fewer and fewer minds are susceptible to the argument that the blob exists to “save our democracy.”...

President Trump’s selection of Dan Bongino as deputy FBI director adds another conservative firebrand to the top of the agency, fueling concerns from Democrats the bureau will be politicized. A former Secret Service agent and New York City police officer turned right-wing pundit, Bongino has bragged of “owning the libs,” recently suggested Trump should defy a court order and has called the agency he will soon help lead “irredeemably corrupt.” In hiring Bongino, Trump tapped a second figure, after FBI Director Kash Patel, who has a lengthy history of controversial statements and little experience with the FBI. The Trump administration...

A lawyer who worked for different Republican senators slammed the appointment of conservative commentator Dan Bongino as deputy FBI director, a position that does not need Senate confirmation, saying the decision was made after GOP lawmakers failed to put previous limits on the Trump administration. Gregg Nunziata, who worked for now Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, said Bongino's confirmation "is what you get when R Senators fail to do their jobs and say no to (Kash) Patel," already confirmed to be the next FBI director.

VIDEOLiberals are FREAKING OUT over the appointment of Dan Bongino as FBI Deputy Director. And nowhere is this more evident than with the Bluesky Bolsheviks. This is only the START of the meltdown entertainment provided by this very significant appointment.

One thing that never gets old is watching leftists go after each other like the Kilkenny cats. Dan Bongino frequently reminds us that leftism is cannibalistic. Their modus operandi is to divide society into groups and turn them against one another. As this continues the groups become increasingly fragmented until finally, they turn their attacks inward. There's an old maxim variously attributed to Sun Tzu, Napoleon Bonaparte and others that says, "Never interfere with the enemy when he is in the process of destroying himself." That's terrific advice, and the best part is that it’s so very satisfying to watch....

President-elect Donald Trump reacted quickly to protests from supporters who believed that he would choose Mike Rogers as director of the FBI. Trump's long-serving advisor and social media director Dan Scavino delivered an update on the idea on Friday morning on his X account. 'Just spoke to President Trump regarding Mike Rogers going to the FBI,' he wrote. 'It’s not happening — In his own words, “I have never even given it a thought.” Not happening.' Rogers, a former FBI agent, congressman, and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, ran unsuccessfully for Senator of Michigan in November but was a...

Former Secret Service agent, author, and Conservative podcaster Dan Bongino predicted another security “incident” just weeks before the second assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club in Florida on Sunday. In August, Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., asked Bongino, “Is the Secret Service in a better spot today with Director Rowe in charge?” “No, it’s worse,” Bongino replied. He then predicted that “something else” would happen, adding, “I pray to my Lord and savior Jesus Christ that I’m wrong.” “[If] you think this is the last incident, you’re out of your mind,” he said....
