STUART, Florida – Dan Bongino, former deputy director of the FBI in the Trump administration, is now letting loose on his first day as a private citizen, saying he is “looking forward to big things ahead” as he’ll be returning to his radio broadcast.
“We’ve got midterms coming up, and there’s no time for bullsh**,” Bongino said, noting he’s taking a couple of days to spend with family.
“This administration is cooking and REAL change simmers. If you’re spending your entire day bitching and whining with 3/4ths of the term still to go, then please find the exits. There’s no time for it. It’s not ‘infighting’ when you excise a cancer killing the host. It’s ‘outfighting’ because you’re not part of any movement I’m familiar with.”
“As we get ready to make some announcements about the future of the show, I also want to warn the haters and the zeroes – we’ve been at this a long time. We live for this stuff. This isn’t our first, second or tenth rodeo. We’ve seen a lot [of] dipsh*ts come and go. We revel in making you angry enough to show your asses. It’s glorious.”
Bongino then recounted some of his personal history, explaining, “I started in this movement as a candidate during the Tea Party movement, and I began my political commentary career shortly thereafter. I helped build this movement and I sure as hell am not going to let it get hijacked by a group of black-pillers, life-losers, grifters and bums.
“We are a movement guided by truth. The essence of conservative ideology is the preservation of eternal truths. We are not the ‘latest thing’ group. We are not political cannibals. I’ve watched quietly from the inside while doing the job I was hired to do, but I’m back now, and it’s time to restore balance to the force … .”
As WorldNetDaily reported in July, in a cryptic X post, Bongino said he has been “shocked to the core” by what he has learned in ongoing investigations – but he did not say what that was.
“We cannot run a Republic like this,” Bongino insisted. “I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.”
The deputy director, a former Secret Service agent and political commentator, vowed to bring the American people “the truth,” saying, “We are going to get the answers WE ALL DESERVE.”
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…
