CNN: Deputy FBI Dir. Dan Bongino Is Considering Resigning After Heated Confrontation with AG Bondi Over Epstein Files

EXCERPT:

COLLINS: “What we do know is that Dan Bongino has told people he is considering resigning as the deputy director of the FBI over the fallout that has continued ever since this memo was released last Sunday. The anger inside the MAGA base has only continued to grow instead of going away, as some officials inside hoped it would. And now our colleagues, along with Kristen Holmes, Hannah Rabinowitz, and Evan Perez, were hearing that he's considering resigning after they had this heated confrontation with the Attorney General Pam Bondi, over the handling of this earlier this week. And basically there was a meeting at the White House where the FBI Director Kash Patel was there, the White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. They were questioned about whether they were part of a story that there was basically some infighting over how this came out and this memo that said we're not going to be releasing any more information related to Jeffrey Epstein. And I should note that we were told Bongino denied leaking any story to this outlet that it was reported on, but there has been a lot of fighting between Attorney General Pam Bondi specifically and the leadership over at the FBI over who's to blame in this situation.”
