Taking issue with the Trump administrationAs a co-deputy director of the FBI, Dan Bongino will share his responsibilities with Andrew Bailey, the attorney general of Missouri.
This latest appointment change follows Bongino’s heated argument with Attorney General Pam Bondi on the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein issue.
He argued about the dead sex offender case with Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel. He confronted Bondi at the White House and vowed to resign from the position. Bondi has been subjected to the same anger on the case and its cover-up as Trump.
The public wants the truth to be known, despite Trump’s continuous defense of her.Since assuming the position, Bailey has been defending Trump. Additionally, he expressed gratitude to President Bondid for providing him with the opportunity to carry out the MAGA objective.
He wants to defend the Constitution and the United States. Dan, on the other hand, was appointed deputy director of the FBI in March of this year. He was dealing with it alone, without anyone else’s help.
The fact that he will now be sharing the role looks like a degradation. He was kind about it, though, and welcomed Bailey on X with emojis of the American flag.

Patel asserts that the FBI is solely concerned with attracting skilled individuals to advance the nation’s objectives. He adds that Bailey will play a crucial role in preserving American principles and unity.
Trump was elected by the vast majority of Americans, who want to see the administration’s objectives fulfilled. The way the justice department was handling Epstein’s case caused Bongino to lose it last month.
Bondi even claimed to have the list in her possession, and the Trump administration promised to make the Epstein papers public. But after a few months, they acknowledged that the list didn’t exist at all, and no more records were made public.

He wrote on X that a thorough probe is necessary because they cannot govern a republic in this manner. He believes that everyone ought to receive the responses they are due.
However, Bailey has consistently expressed support for the Trump administration on social media and has now secured a new position within the FBI.
