Dan Bongino, a conservative podcaster known for criticizing the FBI and promoting conspiracy theories, has been appointed as the deputy director of the agency. Bongino has gained a large following by attacking the FBI and pushing narratives about corruption within the bureau. Despite his history of criticizing the FBI, he claims to be committed to serving in his new role.
Bongino has accused the FBI of colluding with the so-called deep state and has made the agency a frequent target on his popular podcast. He has also expressed extreme views on power and government, often dismissing the idea of checks and balances.
Criticism of the FBI by Bongino intensified in recent years, with him calling for the disbandment of the agency and accusing it of systemic corruption. Despite his lack of experience within the FBI, Bongino has been appointed to the second-highest position in the agency, along with Kash Patel, who also lacks a background in the FBI.
Bongino’s appointment has raised concerns about how he and Patel will lead the agency, given their history of partisan rhetoric and promotion of misinformation. Bongino’s transition from a conservative commentator to a high-ranking position within the FBI has been met with controversy and skepticism.
It remains to be seen how Bongino will perform in his new role and whether he will be able to set aside his past criticisms of the agency to effectively lead the FBI.
