Dan Bongino, FBI Deputy Director and former conspiracy theorist pushing MAGA podcaster, is officially leaving the FBI in January. Here is his announcement:
Rumors had been swirling for quite a while. MSNOW's Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian reported oon Wednesday that Bongino had "quietly told confidants he plans to formally leave his job early in the new year and will not be returning to headquarters to work this month, according to eight people briefed on his account."
In fact, they went so far as to report that he had already cleared his office out!
Trump seemed to confirm it as well during a press scrum on the tarmac on Wednesday afternoon:
Bongino, a diehard MAGA Trump supporter and former Secret Service agent built his career as a pro-Trump podcaster and pusher of conspiracy theories. He was an odd choice for FBI deputy directors as he has NO FBI experience. Neither does Ka$h Patel, but we all know that Trump values loyalty over skills, intelligence and competence.
Clearly he listened to Amato, who told him to "Quit, already."
Enjoy your podcast, Dan!
