| Dan Bongino to resign from FBI deputy director role in January |
| 2025-12-18 |
| [FoxNews] 'Dan did a great job. I think he wants to go back to his show,' President Trump said Wednesday FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is leaving the bureau in January after speculation rose this week concerning his departure. "I will be leaving my position with the FBI in January," Bongino wrote in an X post Wednesday. "I want to thank President [Donald] Trump, AG [Pam] Bondi, and Director [Kash] Patel for the opportunity to serve with purpose. Most importantly, I want to thank you, my fellow Americans, for the privilege to serve you. God bless America, and all those who defend Her." President Donald Trump hinted at the news on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews earlier in the afternoon, saying, "Dan did a great job. I think he wants to go back to his show." Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, had no FBI experience before Trump tapped him to serve in the No. 2 position there. Prior to Bongino, the role had for more than a century been filled by someone who worked at the bureau, according to the FBI Agents Association. The position does not require Senate confirmation. Fox News confirmed Andrew Bailey, co-deputy director, has been on the job since September and will stay on for now in the deputy role reporting to Patel. The White House and the FBI did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's requests for comment.
