Trump Appoints Dan Bongino as FBI Deputy Director, Joining Patel to Overhaul Bureau

D.C. (Dist. of Criminals), February 23, 2025 — President Donald Trump has named Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, NYPD officer, and top conservative commentator, as Deputy Director of the FBI, solidifying his administration’s plan to dismantle political corruption and restore integrity within the bureau.

The announcement, made via Trump’s Truth Social account, comes just days after Kash Patel was confirmed as FBI Director, signaling a full-scale reform of the embattled agency. With Patel’s legal and intelligence experience and Bongino’s practical law enforcement background, the duo will report to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, focusing on national security and exposing entrenched deep state operatives.

Bongino’s Mission: Ending the Weaponization of the FBI
A longtime critic of the bureau’s political overreach, Bongino has repeatedly condemned its abuse of surveillance powers, the raid on Mar-a-Lago, and its mishandling of January 6 investigations. His appointment cements Trump’s commitment to eradicating partisan corruption and ensuring transparency on critical issues—including the botched Secret Service protection during the Trump assassination attempt.

🔹 FBI to prioritize national security over political witch hunts

🔹 Reforms expected in FBI’s investigative scope, including potential changes to its counterintelligence role

🔹 Bongino to oversee efforts to eliminate DEI hiring policies and refocus on merit-based law enforcement

Bongino Leaves Conservative Media Empire for Law Enforcement
Bongino’s appointment means he will step away from his massively successful podcast and media ventures, which have dominated conservative airwaves. His departure leaves a major void in the movement, but his supporters, the “Bongino Army,” see this as a strategic move to fight deep state corruption from within.

In a fiery final podcast, Bongino called the FBI overhaul “the greatest reform in Republican history”, thanking Trump for giving him the opportunity to help “drain the swamp from the inside.”

As Trump continues his sweeping restructuring of federal agencies, the new FBI leadership under Patel and Bongino is set to reshape the bureau’s mission, prioritize real law enforcement, and restore public trust—marking a new era for American justice.
