Is Dan Bongino Quitting Over the Epstein
Client List Debacle?

Original Article

Posted By: DW626, 7/11/2025 4:44:38 PM

What happens when even Donald Trump’s most loyal allies start questioning the administration’s handling of one of the most explosive cases in modern history? We’re about to find out, and it’s not pretty. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino reportedly had a heated confrontation with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the Jeffrey Epstein files, and the fallout has been swift and telling. According to sources, Bongino was so frustrated with Bondi’s lack of transparency that he took the day off work on Friday, leading some to speculate that he might have quit altogether.

The author proposes the "list" was destroyed by the Bribem administration. Too many big names, world leaders and sundry other perverts were involved. Heck, we haven't even seen all the JFK information. We'll never see Epstein's list. Why is G. Maxwell in prison?

I found this somewhere in my roamings. I think this is going to be as big as the Kennedy assassination if PDJT doesn't do something to stop it. People will not let it be swept under the rug from the comments I am seeing. https://sonar21.com/the-epstein-client-list-why-is-trump-breaking-his-promise-to-publish/

The DOJ, FBI, and Secret Service aren't getting much done. Harmeet Dhillon is doing a good job. The DOJ has an overwhelming amount of work to do, because the Democrat Party and all their constituents are criminals. They need to pick a half dozen from the top, and get them prosecuted, and in jail. That will relieve the pressure to get things done. MAGA has more than earned the right to impatience, as there have been years and decades of nothing done. If they will prosecute and jail some of these corrupt Democrats, the rest of them will get the message.

"The DOJ claims that the enhanced video footage backs the suicide ruling, saying the FBI boosted contrast, color, and sharpness for “greater clarity.” Yet somehow, we’re expected to just take their word for it?" The problem is it doesn't, you can barley see the edge of the stairs where Epstein cell was located, so anyone could have went in and out of there without being seen. How anyone could possibly conclude he killed himself from that is insane. Then there are other oddities like the guards at the desk closet to the cell did not move for hours, there is a lady that came out of no where seen exiting but not seen entering. Then there is a black clothed hooded figure seen exiting and entering, who dresses like that and hides their face in a cell block? Way more questions than answers here.

#3, do you know anything about the people shown at the website that you provided? This is the second posting of it that I’ve seen here on Epstein threads. Did you watch the video, and do you agree with what was said against Netanyahu and Israel at the beginning of it? I haven’t had time to watch all of it, but my first impression is that this is vehemently anti Trump and Netanyahu.

I will say that even though I always enjoyed his podcast. Bongino has a major need to be light and admired. If he quits, it's because he didn't like the blowback, he was getting from the public, which he will parlay into an act of bravery, of course. You can also take a lot of the responsibility when we end up with a Democrat.In the white house in 2028.

#3 makes an astute observation a la the JFK Assassination-- President Trump wanted everything declassified and released as it should have been according to the provisions of the JFK Act. There have been some documents withheld or redacted for over 60 years that have come to light, one of which has been long sought about The Company's George Joanides in which FINALLY came out that from the VERY BEGINNING of the WC and the HSCA investigation in the 1970's the PUBLIC has been LIED TO about LHO who had records compiled over 5 years. Why is this important now, many would say-- The VEGETABLE and his AUTOPEN hijacked the nation with 10 million too many votes in 2020, and the corruption was EVERYWHERE!! People have had ENOUGH of being LIED to, and after mentioning the Epstein material, and finding out he got out of a previous conviction for a few months of house arrest during the W. Bush administration, it is long time to come clean. Epstein is DEAD. His procurer has been given a 20-year sentence, do they had to have some evidence against HER. There are people who went to his Island who are prominent politicians who partook of young women and people want HONESTY FOR A CHANGE This is not going to go away... the time has come, and I believe that Dan Bongino is an honorable man with integrity who DOES NOT want to be associated or cooperate with corruption by remaining silent. Mr. Trump is the only one who can settle this, and he is going to have to do something or it will stain him and bring his presidency down. The problem is that so many in both political parties are corrupt. Hitlery said that if she didn't win she would "take half of Washington with her". This will not go away after the absolute COVER UP of the people running the government while the VEGETABLE was the puppet of activists. Bongino was quoted as saying "all roads lead to Obama"..... Bongino is principled. I support him.

I don't buy the it was destroyed. During the Maxwell case, there was an in camera viewing of the files and the judge said there would be no releasing the list of names. To me, had they simply came out at the beginning and say we can't release because of security issue (or something) that would be the end of it. No one would be happy but there would not be the dustup that have some turning on the Trump administration - and now he seems to be sticking his foot in his mouth. There are to many known pieces to neatly stuff it under the cover to hide. What happened to the NY fbi having the files/list/whatever and Bondi was trying to get it back? Why did Bondi/Patel/Bongino stay there was a truck load and thousands of hour of very sick child sex stuff, it just goes on and on. Dershowitz said he saw, he knows the names and it should released. That's not some wild-eyed guy. He would not hurt the country. He said it should be released. I believe him. Why are they trying to tell we did not see and hear would we did? Stop it! You are liars.

This is about as clear as mud. All 3 say Epstein killed himself and that the video confirms this. Bondi claims the client list doesn't exist so how's she supposed to share it? But Bongino didn't call her a liar. He called her an obfuscater. And then potus yells at us for pointing to a promise broken. Sorry potus. You're on the hook for this Big Unbeautiful mess.

I'll also add that the reason so many people are stirred up about this is because you have idiots on their podcast and social media, positing theories about all this evidence that they know about, and that should be released etc. They don't know anything! They don't work for the government, and they don't know what the government has or doesn't have. Frankly, there should be a shame to themselves for putting all this garbage out there when they really don't know what they're talking about. And that includes a person whose show I used to never want to miss, Steve Bannon. All they have done is get people worked into a frenzy, convinced they're being lied to, and in the meantime, no one is noticing all of the great things that are happening, including the huge budget surplus from June!

I hope Dan Bongino stays. I have never doubted his integrity. It would be a great loss in that regard if he were to leave. We need more people like him in government, not less. I have been uneasy about the choice of Pam Bondi as Attorney General from the beginning. This incident and the lead up to it has only strengthened that concern for me.

I say, put this on the back burner for a while. There are bigger things right now. Let the issues pile up and take the bigger ones first. This is just a media circus. If Dan has hurt feelings, maybe he should take a vacation and come back later on. The press can’t add anymore to the coverage of the Epstein affair or they’re gonna bring down people on their side. This is all heat and no light on the subject. It’s what the press is good at.

Trump, Bondi, Patel, Bongino, and others won the election and found themselves in the middle of a mountain of corruption, courtesy of the previous administration. They are under pressure to start throwing Dems into orange jump suits, but are finding out that it is not what you know, it is what you can prove. They need to focus on the facts, and Pam needs to stop calling press conferences about what might happen soon.

There was an article the other day that Bill O'Reilly said he had a conversation with President Trump and understands why the Epstein list is not being revealed and I happen to agree with the reasoning. To my knowledge there has not been any criminal trials except for the one with Epstein somewhere between 2011-2013. I am not certain that Ghislaine Maxwell has had a trial. I am certain someone will refresh my memory. With that said, why is an Epstein list or video coverage being released to the public when it could very well be evidence for something? This kind of reminds me of the E. Jean Carroll civil lawsuit. Why is so much being published to the media and the public? Donald Trump was not criminally charged back in the 90's and he was never given the right to prove his innocence. But now because the media and the public and E. Jean Carroll have declared him guilty, he has to pay. It seems like our justice system has become compromised and the media and the public now assume they have every right to know. I support Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi. I think the mess they inherited is sad. . .

I don’t think there’s a there there. Biden’s group obviously hid or destroyed the list if it ever existed. And Trumps irritable comment is right…we got way bigger things to do. Although he and his admin missed a golden opportunity to just say so. Sometimes transparency means saying folks it’s not there now

British parliamentarian William E.

There are exceptions, of course, such as the case of Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), who was convicted on bribery and corruption charges.

What Donald Trump has achieved in the first six months of his non-sequential second term borders on the unprecedented. The most lasting and impactful accomplishment will be Trump’s ongoing victories in permanently reining in a rogue and increasingly radicalized federal judiciary. His electoral victory in 2024 and uncompromising battles with the judiciary have rescued the United States from an irreversible decline and fall. Over the past 70 years, the federal judiciary has increasingly assumed the extra-constitutional role of arbitrarily setting the boundaries of congressional and presidential authority.

None of us ever would have heard of Jeffrey Epstein had the government not brought him up. It was the government that brought charges against him. The government told us that he was “the most prolific child sex trafficker in history.” The government said he was “with intelligence.” The government cut him a sweetheart deal. The government was taken to court by “John Doe” over what the government called “client lists.” The government courts made a ruling about the “client lists” not being released. Senator Dick Durbin blocked the release of the “client list” in the legislative branch of the government. The government said it had “client lists” on its desk.

It’s no secret that Joe Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the United States Supreme Court because she is a black woman.* In other words, she was not chosen for her judicial acumen, but for her political identity. That goes a long way to explaining the absolutely lunatic dissent she issued to a Supreme Court order. That order stayed a California district court judge’s ruling blocking President Trump from ordering agency heads to produce plans for possible “Reductions in Force.”

Two hundred forty-nine years ago. Fifty-two men gathered in Independence Hall to sign the Declaration of Independence — a defiant ultimatum to King George III, risking death and treason to demand God-given rights: life, liberty, and self-governance. It offered the crown a choice: Honor the natural rights of free men, or face their unshakeable resolve to break away. In signing it, they signed their own death warrants — for surely if they failed, the gallows awaited them. The Declaration was a message writ upon the hearts of men by God Himself — a sermon steeped in biblical truth and republican virtue. “Give me liberty or give me death!”

A leftist woman who’s been hassling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents ran to the media to whine after she was unsurprisingly detained. The woman, a 71-year-old grandmother named Barbara Stone, showed up at the San Diego Courthouse Tuesday with the explicit intent to “document” ICE agents, according to local station KGTV. She claimed she was a volunteer for a left-wing pro-illegal alien group named Detention Resistance that goes around “showing support for … asylum seekers,” according to Stone’s own words.
