He is currently vowing to unleash the same kind of hell on "black-pillers" that he unleashed on Epstein's friends when he was deputy FBI director.
He's attacking Dave Smith for being critical of the Epstein matter while saying that he stands at the ready to rescue his children.
In 2018, when he was asked what cause is dear to his heart, he didn't hesitate before saying "Israel. The Defense of Israel". Israel wasn't under attack in 2018.
He's also retweeting Mark Levin talking about the 'Woke Reich' and calling people 'symbiotes' and 'demon savages'.
As for me, while I don't judge anyone, I cannot even begin to comprehend how anyone could like this guy. He seems like a compromised, low IQ, worthless sperg to me, but people speak of him as if he is or was somehow massively popular. How does this guy get 7 million Twitter followers?
Tulsi has been a mixed bag; she's declassified a shit ton of evidence of criminality of the Obama and Biden administrations.
Unfortunately, the DOJ is still run by Deep State Barbie. And between her and the fact that the Republican senate is still blocking Trump's picks, leading to understaffing and legal shenanigans, it's been next to toothless.
Except, of course, for pursuing Biden-DOJ-era legal complaints against gun owners and Amish farmers. Those guys are still getting screwed.
Unfortunately, the DOJ is still run by Deep State Barbie.
The entire government is run by the Deep State. Trump is part of it. That's why no matter how much evidence is declassified nobody will be held accountable.
Well, they just tried to shoot him about a year ago. And before that they tried to throw him in prison. There are so many specific circumstances around Butler that you can't reasonably say it was staged.
Tulsi has been a mixed bag; she's declassified a shit ton of evidence of criminality of the Obama and Biden administrations.
That's just pleasing the boss. I'd like to see her declassify things that don't directly benefit Trump, like all the files related to mysteries like JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11, etc..
Unfortunately, the DOJ is still run by Deep State Barbie.
I'm pretty sure she's just carrying out Trump's orders.
Thank you. I don't see enough people calling her out. It's a shame; she was one of the people I had highest hopes for, and she's either silent or actively complicit in all this mess.
This whole admin has been a massive blackpill; get the outsiders in power, they immediately become the insiders. Not a spine to be seen anywhere.
Or maybe it's the guy at the top. During the 2024 election, I wondered why neocons were so fanatically supportive of Trump, even though he nomnally denounced them and Cheney. I considered asking it here, but predicated that the answer would be "because he is one himself".
This nonsense has soiled everyone in the admin. I was one of the few people who liked JD Vance a lot before the debate. Then he goes out and disgraces himself with "it's not a war, we just bombed their nuclear facilities."
Rubio has been very successful so far implementing his lifelong plan to isolate and collapse Cuba. Decapitation strike and blockade of Venezuela was a pretty brilliant move to move towards that goal.
You can disagree with him, but he clearly knows what he's doing and has an objective.
You can’t fight against an army of shanequa government workers who can’t be fired and don’t want to work.
You either have to do it RFK style or Caesar style.
I wish that conservatives would learn the lesson in "electing an outsider to clean up washington" I mean what are the odds that 100% of these people are actually insiders all along? there can't be any other explanation right? absolutely not.
He was just one among many chattering talking heads that the right has. None of them actually do anything constructive with their fame and riches, they just feed the same boomerslop to their boomercon audiences. Even Dan, who was #2 at the FBI, did absolutely nothing the entire time he was there, and he is too much a product of the deep state to name names and show evidence as to who, or what, prevented him from doing anything while he was in office.
Ole Dan may get some of his audience back, because boomercons are f***ing idiots, but he will never be the juggernaut he used to be. Younger generations are demanding action, and the usual goyslop purveyors are not handling it well. Dan is crashing out for exactly this reason.
Younger generations are demanding action, and the usual goyslop purveyors are not handling it well. Dan is crashing out for exactly this reason.
There's a huge disconnect between older and younger in that the older generation should be educating the younger generation on how to actually undertake action.
Although given the advantage the left has in organisation, it may just be because they literally do not know how to organise and create and use power.
Former fan. I watched during Biden admin until he had his graduation stream. Never watched Fox on cable, so the only thing I know about him from his time there is an old clip of him covering leftists chanting "no border, no wall, no USA at all".
I believe he has PTSD from 9/11 (he was there with his then fiancé, now wife) and still believes the MSM narrative which creates a blind spot for his position on anything related to Israel and his allegiance to Israeli shills like Mark Levin. He readily ate up the MSM narrative for 10/7.
Bought a Trump mugshot related shirt from him back when that was relevant. Won't bother watching his show now.
I used to listen fairly regularly. He was a good source for stuff surrounding federal intelligence and law enforcement shenanigans. I'd mostly tune him out when he talked about Israel issues because he's clearly a brainwashed boomer on that topic.
I won't be tuning in when he returns. The current administration and its stooges are all attacking the only real MAGA candidates and supporters. The treatment of Massie is pathetic and weak, and the treatment of MTG is utterly grotesque.
Bongino choosing Dave Smith as his target of ire is just baffling and, again, pathetic and weak.
Can't speak about the others, but I would advise against supporting MTG too much. Seems evidence came out that she leaked information about Trump intending to go to a specific restaurant to a leftist radfem activist group, before they even had their public falling out. And don't forget the way she resigned from her post, with too little heads up for a new election to be held, meaning that she wasn't replaced and the republicans effectively lost a seat. With her recent behaviour, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she joined The View as one of the hosts. She seems to be getting along with the others really well, after all.

This is the grotesque reaction I was talking about.
And even if everything you said was actually true, my response would be, "ok, what do you expect when she's 100% loyal and then Trump turns around and attacks her and calls her a traitor for trying to get the Epstein files released?"
I used to watch his clips sometimes, but never watched his show in full. He has always been a meathead but I didn't realize how much of a worthless jewed out faggot he is.
I'd sometimes listen during a commute, but never considered myself a fan; not a 'fan' of most of those AM people.
And then he lost me after October 7th, and I wouldn't even listen. He was one of the worst and most bloodthirsty people on the radio, giving Mark Levin a run for his money even. 'No such thing as an innocent Gazan,' ranting about 'terrorist sympathizers,' wanting to kill them all, stuff like that. It was bad. Calling people subhumans.
Dan Bongino is, choose at least one: A propagandist with no morals, a hateful monster, or an easily swayed and emotional person who gets caught up in the fervor. But the hate and self righteousness he spews is insane.
easily swayed and emotional person who gets caught up in the fervor.
This is me. I always believed that Muslims need to be dealt with firmly (they cause a lot of trouble here in Europe), but seeing the October 7 videos especially that of a terrified mother being abducted with her children hurt me a lot. And that alone made it almost incomprehensible to me that anyone would oppose the war on Gaza, I assume the same way as people who watched videos of brutalized Gazans couldn't believe that anyone would support it.
Then when Israel started to bomb Iran, I followed some accounts which were also critical of what was going on in Gaza, and I also got to see that.
In a 2019 statement, Netanyahu reportedly said, “Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas. This is part of our strategy — to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank”.
October 7th was allowed to happen so they could justify the war in Gaza, imo. Why else would IDF be told to stand down?
At least you can recognize it. A lot of emotional people don't realize how they're being swayed.
And, to some extent, I think getting hit with the manipulation from both sides can be a good thing, as I think 'be humane and try to see things from each side' is a pretty good position.
You are. The real question is will you allow this self-awareness to humble you going forward? Or will you revert to the insufferable know-it-all faggot even after you've realized the extent to which your more retarded beliefs are animated and directed by media psyops?
'No such thing as an innocent Gazan,' ranting about 'terrorist sympathizers,' wanting to kill them all, stuff like that. It was bad. Calling people subhumans.
I mean, that's no different to the sorts of things we see about Jews right here every day from numerous users.
I mean, that's no different to the sorts of things we see about Jews right here every day from numerous users.
Firstly, even here you don't commonly see the level of viciousness toward the Jews that Bongino was spewing toward Palestinians and Muslims in general. Secondly, even if you did...we're a fringe internet forum, not a syndicated radio host. "Stormfag88" or whatever here does not have the reach of Bongino.
It's a bit different having him spout that shit on the radio, than seeing someone spout that shit about Jews here.
Lastly, I don't agree with either, so I'm not sure the point anyway. Palestinians are not all guilty, and not all subhuman. Neither are Jews. Even if we had a bunch of users pushing that shit here, I still disagree with Bongino's evil takes.
I used to watch his show occasionally. His popularity was the real deal and he was pulling half a million live viewers on Rumble around the election, more than Crowder. With the exception of Israel, he was reliably incisive and entertaining on most issues and was pretty effective in his mockery and criticism of the previous admin. In some ways he was a bit like thedonald personified, so his chat was an unreadable fastscrolling wall of cheering boomers, but his own zeal seemed genuine and he also wasn't hesitant to examine possible foul play by glowies like the FBI and Secret Service. He kept hammering for further answers about the Trump assassination attempts and the Jan 6 pipe bomber.
The pipe bomber is the big one. Bongino wasn't typically an Alex Jones type throwing around wild speculation. So it felt significant that of all the things he got angry about on his show, he chose to single out the Jan 6 pipe bomber and go on about it repeatedly. He gave insight from his own secret service background and used that as a basis for saying that the entire official narrative was unbelievable. He went further and insisted that he thought it was an FBI false flag, meant as insurance if the other DC protests couldn't be used as a narrative; he said it was possibly the biggest scandal in the history of the FBI and that heads would definitely roll. He was literally a conspiracy theorist on this issue.
So it is remarkable and unrecoverable for him now to be going after those on the right who are demanding accountability from the administration. There is just no plausible way back for him into the world of political commentary because he hung so much of his credibility on issues like this, the pipe bomber especially. The only way back IMO is if he is now run like an op - with a fake chat, with bots, with narrative nudgers and with supplied talking points to damage control his shattered credibility and keep his mouth shut about whatever went on in his FBI tenure. And if that's the play now, I have to wonder if that's what was going on with him all along - that he was always a pied piper fed fake. I suspect not though, because it would have been easy for him not have laid a massive trap for himself by going after the pipe bomber story so hard, if he instead stayed focussed on safer ragebait for boomers.
The other most likely alternative is that getting close to power revealed to him just how much Israel runs things, and that he'll tell any lie and suffer any indignity to prevent others learning the same.
He also claimed that he had whistleblowers from inside the FBI who were telling him the truth about this and the Butler assassination attempt and threatened to ... do something, I guess ... if the SS and FBI didn't start being more transparent.
And if that's the play now, I have to wonder if that's what was going on with him all along - that he was always a pied piper fed fake. I suspect not though, because it would have been easy for him not have laid a massive trap for himself by going after the pipe bomber story so hard, if he instead stayed focussed on safer ragebait for boomers.
I didn't know he was that keyed in to the pipe bomber story. That's bizarre. They whipped him into line somehow.
I think people like that just get one shotted when they get to be "the boss" and some smiling but pleasant "assistant" says "we can't do that" and rolls their eyes and brings in a panel of pleasant experts to begrudgingly explain how things work via a million powerpoint slides.
If you tell them to do anything they will refuse or balk at the idea of doing anything that isn't an existing process, and you can't fire them.
Being in charge of an army of underlings you have no real control over is a very effective way of defanging "populists" because they have no real idea how to get anything done.
This is why RFK has been the only person to do "things" What he's done is target the right cogs in the machine. Like firing the ACIP panel I believe and replacing them either with his people or leaving it empty.
Henceforth, I refer to him as Fag Bonginio in all further communications.
I liked the guy in that he was good on Butler, good on pointing out the corruption, good on pointing out the lawfare. You can literally find my post where I said that Matt Gaetz not getting in was unfortunate, but Dan Bongino getting in was fantastic.
Total failure, on all counts: Epstein, Lawfare, FBI complicity, MS-13 affiliations, Antifa actions, J6 prisoners, J6 Pipebomer, J6 Feds, Rudy's disbarment, even Butler. HOW DO YOU NOT LOOK MORE INTO BUTLER, PA?!! I mean, jesus, Tulsi has done more on Obama-Admin subversion, and Rubio has done more on censorship. Arctic Frost investigation has basically died.
The fact that the first action he took was to call Matt Gaetz a nazi after Matt poked him about his history as a candidate; and followed it up with unironically re-tweeting Mark Levin is so fucking bad that I wash my hands of him completely. Matt Gaetz's father was literally the target of a DOJ blackmail operation. The FBI and DOJ dropped the ball on that like everything else, which is why Matt is more salty with him.
Not only is he doing the FBI's PR nonsense, he's doing the corrupt version. If I want regime apologetics I can find Kari Lake, Kristi Noem, and Seb Gorka. If I want the Lincoln Project's opinion, I'll listen to Fag Bongino
Honestly, I would actually expect Fag Bongino to testify against Trump at his next impeachment hearing at this rate. I hope Trump watches his show fucking implode and realize that idiots like him should not be in charge of messaging.
For God's sake, I just naturally assumed that being in Congress meant you would be blackmailed by at least 5 groups, and one of them would obviously be Israel.
It's like fucking saying that he got wet when it rained.
If that comment upset Dan, he has earned his Fag Bongino title.
You can literally find my post where I said that Matt Gaetz not getting in was unfortunate, but Dan Bongino getting in was fantastic.
You think that's bad?
There's posts of me where I'm enthusiastic about Kash Patel becoming FBI director. J6 prison choir affiliate, promises a 24 hour declassification office, promises to turn the FBI into the museum of the deep state, what could go wrong?
Rubio has done more on censorship.
That's BS by the way. They only slapped visa sanctions on the censors, not economic sanctions which they reserved for real enemies like ICC judges who indicted Netanyahu.
That's BS by the way. They only slapped visa sanctions on the censors, not economic sanctions which they reserved for real enemies like ICC judges who indicted Netanyahu.
During the first impeachment I was a daily listener. He provided real insight for a lot of people.
It's unfortunate that he flaked for whatever reason. I won't pretend it's justified but I'm not going to pretend he's the worst either. A sell out for sure. Starting shit online is pretty cringe. He's lost his credibility and I won't be paying attention anymore
If you can put a guy like him second from the top of the FBI and then he accomplishes basically nothing, the entire structure of the FBI is totally irredeemable. It's nice that they're arresting pedophiles and actual criminals instead of grandmas and right wing Twitter posters, that kind of thing isn't nothing, but they needed to have thousands of FBI agents getting fired. Maybe he's having trouble with the cancer again and kept it quiet.
At this point, I believe Boomers with a slightly above knowledge of the internet will be the only ones watching him. Charlie (moist critical) made a video on his ass and poked fun of the new Epstein report with more censorship and Charlie is as much of a normie as you can get.
Also, like MTG, when you quit early I lose all respect for you.
At least MTG was actually under attack. She still shouldn't have quit, but Bongino is even more spineless. He folded under zero pressure. At least outside pressure. People were saying mean things...boo hoo.
It's actually laughable; Bongino did pretty much nothing, was extremely arrogant, and shittalked everyone else...then just walked, for pretty much no reason. Absolute joke of an individual, at this point.
While I'm disappointed with MTG resigning, there were apparently serious threats leveled at her which Trump then justified. I can see why she would be disillusioned. I'm disillusioned with Trump's baboonery all the way from Europe, let alone someone who was a true believer and put her life and property on the line for that guy.
He is currently vowing to unleash the same kind of hell on "black-pillers" that he unleashed on Epstein's friends when he was deputy FBI director.
He's attacking Dave Smith for being critical of the Epstein matter while saying that he stands at the ready to rescue his children.
In 2018, when he was asked what cause is dear to his heart, he didn't hesitate before saying "Israel. The Defense of Israel". Israel wasn't under attack in 2018.
He's also retweeting Mark Levin talking about the 'Woke Reich' and calling people 'symbiotes' and 'demon savages'.
As for me, while I don't judge anyone, I cannot even begin to comprehend how anyone could like this guy. He seems like a compromised, low IQ, worthless sperg to me, but people speak of him as if he is or was somehow massively popular. How does this guy get 7 million Twitter followers?
Very few of Trumps picks have been successful.
Only RFK jr - who spent the past 20 years gathering allies and evidence about vaccines.
You can’t fight against an army of shanequa government workers who can’t be fired and don’t want to work.
Edit: I mean one unprepared man has no chance.
And Tulsi has been an absolute disgrace, being complicit in the manufacturing of consent for every single one of Trump's wars of aggression.
Tulsi has been a mixed bag; she's declassified a shit ton of evidence of criminality of the Obama and Biden administrations.
Unfortunately, the DOJ is still run by Deep State Barbie. And between her and the fact that the Republican senate is still blocking Trump's picks, leading to understaffing and legal shenanigans, it's been next to toothless.

The entire government is run by the Deep State. Trump is part of it. That's why no matter how much evidence is declassified nobody will be held accountable.
I think Trump has been near completely coerced by the deep state, but that's not much of a distinction.
At this point I doubt he was ever coerced. He's probably just a fanatical Jew worshiper just like his father was.
Well, they just tried to shoot him about a year ago. And before that they tried to throw him in prison. There are so many specific circumstances around Butler that you can't reasonably say it was staged.
That's just pleasing the boss. I'd like to see her declassify things that don't directly benefit Trump, like all the files related to mysteries like JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11, etc..

I figured this admin would be something like this. It's easier to take it in stride when you know it's coming.
I had higher hopes, but new it would be a possibility...although maybe not to this degree. Disappointing and discouraging, either way, though.
Rubio has been very successful so far implementing his lifelong plan to isolate and collapse Cuba. Decapitation strike and blockade of Venezuela was a pretty brilliant move to move towards that goal.
You can disagree with him, but he clearly knows what he's doing and has an objective.

What, harsh words without actually naming anyone?

Hmm lol. A swollen elbow does kind of sound like a jujitsu injury though, not like a black eye or something.

No, you can't fire them, but you can transfer them somewhere very unpleasant, park them at a desk, and let them stare at walls all day.
Like, say, at the former location of NAS Adak, out in the middle of nowhere in the Alaskan Aleutian islands.
But you have to then replace them with your Guys.
I was never a viewer. But I recall being confused how a MAGA boomerslop show I'd never heard of was the #1 rated show on Rumble.
I heard a clip this morning from Owen Schroyer, a vocal Bongino critic, referring to pre-FBI Dan as being the "#1-viewed conservative show".
Here. I was a fan. I admit I was wrong.
Henceforth, I refer to him as Fag Bonginio in all further communications.
I liked the guy in that he was good on Butler, good on pointing out the corruption, good on pointing out the lawfare. You can literally find my post where I said that Matt Gaetz not getting in was unfortunate, but Dan Bongino getting in was fantastic.
Total failure, on all counts: Epstein, Lawfare, FBI complicity, MS-13 affiliations, Antifa actions, J6 prisoners, J6 Pipebomer, J6 Feds, Rudy's disbarment, even Butler. HOW DO YOU NOT LOOK MORE INTO BUTLER, PA?!! I mean, jesus, Tulsi has done more on Obama-Admin subversion, and Rubio has done more on censorship. Arctic Frost investigation has basically died.
The fact that the first action he took was to call Matt Gaetz a nazi after Matt poked him about his history as a candidate; and followed it up with unironically re-tweeting Mark Levin is so fucking bad that I wash my hands of him completely. Matt Gaetz's father was literally the target of a DOJ blackmail operation. The FBI and DOJ dropped the ball on that like everything else, which is why Matt is more salty with him.
Not only is he doing the FBI's PR nonsense, he's doing the corrupt version. If I want regime apologetics I can find Kari Lake, Kristi Noem, and Seb Gorka. If I want the Lincoln Project's opinion, I'll listen to Fag Bongino
Honestly, I would actually expect Fag Bongino to testify against Trump at his next impeachment hearing at this rate. I hope Trump watches his show fucking implode and realize that idiots like him should not be in charge of messaging.
Dan Meowsticgoesnya
Only Old Fags will get it.
Meowsticgoesnya was always an idiot though, and not just because he was a tranny weirdo.
I'm not old fag enough
Meowsticgoesnya was a tranny poster from the early Half-KiA days.
Yup, I wasn't there for that.
Matt Gaetz was on Tucker Carlson's show recently and basically said he was blackmailed by Israel.
SO??? Matt was blackmailed by the DOJ!
For God's sake, I just naturally assumed that being in Congress meant you would be blackmailed by at least 5 groups, and one of them would obviously be Israel.
It's like fucking saying that he got wet when it rained.
If that comment upset Dan, he has earned his Fag Bongino title.
You think that's bad?
There's posts of me where I'm enthusiastic about Kash Patel becoming FBI director. J6 prison choir affiliate, promises a 24 hour declassification office, promises to turn the FBI into the museum of the deep state, what could go wrong?
That's BS by the way. They only slapped visa sanctions on the censors, not economic sanctions which they reserved for real enemies like ICC judges who indicted Netanyahu.
And it's STILL more than Fag Bongino.
During the first impeachment I was a daily listener. He provided real insight for a lot of people.
It's unfortunate that he flaked for whatever reason. I won't pretend it's justified but I'm not going to pretend he's the worst either. A sell out for sure. Starting shit online is pretty cringe. He's lost his credibility and I won't be paying attention anymore
The only thing I know about this, is that Italians will fuck anything that moves
If you can put a guy like him second from the top of the FBI and then he accomplishes basically nothing, the entire structure of the FBI is totally irredeemable. It's nice that they're arresting pedophiles and actual criminals instead of grandmas and right wing Twitter posters, that kind of thing isn't nothing, but they needed to have thousands of FBI agents getting fired. Maybe he's having trouble with the cancer again and kept it quiet.
At this point, I believe Boomers with a slightly above knowledge of the internet will be the only ones watching him. Charlie (moist critical) made a video on his ass and poked fun of the new Epstein report with more censorship and Charlie is as much of a normie as you can get.
I was a huge fan before his Pam Bondi do-nothing session.
Also, like MTG, when you quit early I lose all respect for you. You might not have a chance, but stick it out.
At least MTG was actually under attack. She still shouldn't have quit, but Bongino is even more spineless. He folded under zero pressure. At least outside pressure. People were saying mean things...boo hoo.
It's actually laughable; Bongino did pretty much nothing, was extremely arrogant, and shittalked everyone else...then just walked, for pretty much no reason. Absolute joke of an individual, at this point.
While I'm disappointed with MTG resigning, there were apparently serious threats leveled at her which Trump then justified. I can see why she would be disillusioned. I'm disillusioned with Trump's baboonery all the way from Europe, let alone someone who was a true believer and put her life and property on the line for that guy.
