Bongino Breaks Ranks – Epstein Files Are Radioactive

Update: December, 2025

Bongino’s tenure at the FBI has come under fire in recent weeks, alongside FBI Director Kash Patel. Earlier this month, a report from an alliance of active-duty and retired FBI personnel portrayed the bureau as directionless under its new leadership.

Under the new leadership team, the bureau is delivering results this country hasn’t seen in decades — tighter accountability, tougher performance standards, billions saved and a mission-first culture. That’s how you restore trust.

So, you are going to bail just because of some noise from the small circle of disgruntled former agents still loyal to the old Comey–Wray model? Man up Dan!

Original story continues below:

Dan Bongino has reportedly threatened to walk from his FBI consulting role after a heated exchange with AG Bondi about the sealed Epstein files.

And this was back in July, 2025 also: FBI Assistant Director Dan Bongino could be out of a job “any day,” according to reporting by journalist Rachel Bade. Bade wrote on her Substack, “The Inner Circle,” that Bongino ran afoul of the Trump administration over his handling of the Epstein files, although it wasn’t clear whether Bongino might be fired or could just walk away.

And why would he have run afoul? Chatrodamus suspects what many fear: the names inside that vault read like a Who’s Who of the protected class — including Bill Clinton.

Why is there never any follow up to these stories? Here we are nearly six months after posting this story and he is still the Deputy Director of the FBI. And now we are just getting additional nonsense from a House “NoSight” Committee , a flight manifest from Epstein’s private plane that include Prince Andrew, Bill Gates, Walter Cronkite and Richard Branson. None of these individuals have been accused of any wrongdoing. Gee, what a surprise! Will we ever get the truth? IMO never, too many rich people with the resources to cover up their worst behavior.

The American public was promised transparency. Instead, they got the usual “nothing to see here, folks” response. It’s a cover-up in full swing. And BTW where are the JFK files we were promised? I’m pretty sure that was the reason Bongino was pissed. He was promised transparency too and didn’t get it, probably never will.

And speaking of transparency: Where is Ghislaine Maxwell serving her time? Federal Prison Camp (FPC) Bryan, a minimum-security women’s prison in Bryan, Texas. She has been relocated to this country club, er, I mean “prison” probably to keep her quiet, “transfer me or I talk” No surprise then that the move came shortly after she was interviewed by a top Justice Department official regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case. Mmmm

Chatrodamus Predicts:

Bongino’s meltdown was temporary and designed to show outrage but nothing further is made of it and as of December 2025 he still has his job.

Uddate: January 2026 Dan Bongino has resigned his post with the FBI and will be returning to his role as a conservative podcaster starting on February 1st.
