For those who don’t know him yet, how do you describe Dan Bongino, the new deputy director of the FBI?
First of all, he is a nonsense guy. That’s natural considering he made bones on the average street as a New York City police officer.
But he is also a very talented operator, as proven in his time with the Elite Secret Service. So he was around and he’s seen a lot.
These insights from experience, along with his attitude of having “good enough” BS, made him one of the most popular and conservative commentators out there. Despite already working, his podcast ranks 15th on Spotify. Not bad.
I present this and make a point. The media seems very upset with DEP. director. Bongino about some of his past comments – specifically, they all think he called the infamous pipe bomb of January 6th “internal work.” Similarly, support for the knowledge of an institution or person not known to the US government, at least, was implemented.
CNN is upset or scary
In a screed posted on Saturday, CNN denounced Bongino for his misconception.
“Dan Bongino, the next assistant director of the FBI, suggested in a popular January podcast that the agency he is about to lead now conspired to plant pipe bombs around Washington before the January 6th, 2021 Capitol riot.”
Can you believe Bongino is so confused? The FBI has never caught anything literally doing something mean, unruly, or completely illegal.
Here’s in particular what he said: “I think the FBI knew the identity of this pipe bomber on January 6th four years ago.
“Everyone, this guy was an insider,” he added. “This was internal work, and it’s the biggest scandal in FBI history.”
Worse, Bongino appears to believe in “conspiracy theory” (known to American political scientists as “Government 101”) in which different institutions have their own interests and agendas. Bongino had the audacity to even argue that bureaucrats who voted more than 90% for Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris might work to undermine President Trump.
“Former Secret Service agent and NYPD officer Bongino has successfully achieved a partially conservative media character by spreading conspiracy theories about so-called deep states that federal workers claim to be planning to undermine the president’s agenda.”
now where I’ll do it Bongino Get something like that Such a crazy idea? Not like them He boasted about not following direct orders from the commander to the press and others..
Does it sound ridiculous that the FBI doesn’t have a single clue as to what happened with the pipe bomb? I don’t know how to do it.

who knows?
Consider that for decades, even before Snowden’s revelation, the NSA had almost supervisory capabilities. (Thank you, Gordon Thomas.)
Think about how the FBI sent a team of goo crimes robbed all over hell and creation, arresting hundreds of people inside the Capitol that day, and how they were able to identify such individuals.
Think of Uncle Sam as having the ability to drive out individual terrorists on the other side of the planet relatively easily.
I can hear it now: “But Derek, lol, the lack of evidence is not evidence of absence This is a plot that you don’t think it has a respectable Lee!”
This canard has always been the result of sloppy thinking. I know what my uncle’s abilities are. The cat is out of the bag.
Anyway, it doesn’t matter here whether the pipe bomb was an internal job. The key point is that you need to ask questions and be asked by people in a position to do something about it.
That’s what scares CNN the most.
