FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino did not show to work on Friday and was thinking about resigning from the agency after a confrontation with Attorney General Palm Bandy about the so -called Epstein files, according to the report Axis And CNNEarlier this year, Bandi promised to release more information about late Podophile Jeffrey Epstein, which was found dead in his jail cell in 2019, but the Attorney General announced this week that the case was closed and no more will be revealed.
Bongino’s absence from work was first reported on X by Laura Lumor, a far-flung conspiracy theorist, someone who has historically spread false claims about major news. But in this case, it seems that the lumor has some credibility, with the modern Maga movement’s connection to the fringe-star wing. The Lumor has taken credit for the evacuation of some people in the government for not being enough loyal to President Donald Trump.
“The source tells me that Dan Bongino is taking day time from his job as Deputy Director of FBI today, and now there is speculation that he would return to his job in @fbi on his hatred with blondi’s transparency and lack of Epstein files,” Loomer tweeted, “Lumor tweeted. Friday morningUsing a mocking surname to refer to the golden hair of Bondi.
Lumor wrote that both FBI director Kash Patel and Bongino were “fierce with Blondi” and “lack of transparency”.
Lumor wrote, “Kash Patel and Dan Bongino should call for public resignation of Blondi today and also push for complete transparency in Epstein files.” “This is an issue that American people carefully cared for. Some should be removed for it. Blondi is more and more to resign Bluondi etiquette.
FBI employees thought that Bongino had left when he did not show to work on Friday according to Exio, but he is still employed by the agency, as far as anyone can tell. Exios cited an anonymous source close to Bongino, which said “he is not coming back.” And CNN reports that many unnamed sources say that Bongino is telling people that he is considering resigning.
Before joining the Trump rule, both Bongino and Patel insisted that the US government was hiding the actual story behind Epstein’s death, which took place in August 2019 as he was waiting for the allegations that he was sex trafficking minors. But after Trump withdrew power and both men climbed to the highest rank of FBI and pulled out a 180 and claimed that Epstein actually killed himself.
Earlier this week, the DOJ released a video of about 11-hours from inside the jail, with Epstin placed, but it did not show a perspective close to Epstein’s actual cell. And to make things even more strange, the footage was missing from the last minute of the day when Epstein was last seen alive in 2019. Bondi erupted when asked about the footage on Tuesday during a cabinet meeting with President Trump on Tuesday. He stumbled on his words when clearly explaining that the safety camera footage has not been captured at the last time of every day. Trump got angry that anyone was still asking about Epstein, perhaps because he was a good friend for years.
Wired has to make cases worse for administration New report Given the metadata from Epstein footage released by DOJ, and it is already popping up more conspiracy principles. According to Wired, the footage, which was billed as “Raw”, was actually edited using the Adobe Premier Pro, and was compiled from at least two source clips, several times rescued, then exported to the DOJ website before being uploaded.
Even President Trump’s most enthusiastic supporters are unhappy with the way the Epstein case is unhappy. On February 27, right -wing affected at the White House were given to the binders, advertised as a major release that would eventually show the public how powerful people had conspired with Epstein to misbehave children. But there was no new information in this release, those who were convinced that an derogatory experience for people who assured Trump was finally going to blow up the lid that he felt that there was a major story.
And you are looking at the anger that is in the most mug in the atmosphere, including the turning point USA conference on Friday, where Steve Banon raised questions from the audience.
A member of the audience said, “In 2016 we trusted the plan with Trump, but now Trump has become deeply in,”
“Why do you say that it has become a deep situation?” Banon replied.
“What is a deeper situation than covering for pedophile? Why will you go to that island? Tell me why you will go to that island?” Referring to the claims, a member of the audience said that Trump visited Epstein’s private island.
If you want to know how well things are going on in Maga World over Epstein, then it is a scene in today’s turning point USA conference.
Meanwhile, Dan Bongino had to take an individual day as he has been emphasized.

Even some Democrats are starting to play hardball with Epstein story, although no Democratic leaders in the Congress have said anything about it. Rape. Jimmy Gomez, a Democrat, who represents the Los Angeles area, tweeted about the ICE attack on farm laborers on Thursday, which inspires the official White House account to post the AI image of Gomez, crying. Gomez replied together with a picture of Trump and Epstein, “If you are now concerned about the exploitation of the child then release Epstein files. Your Aadhaar wants to know. ,

Nobody knows what happens next when it comes to Bongino and Bondi’s future with Trump rule. But this is going to be completely forgotten by some dramatic Maga Base for Epstein’s story.
