The Fallout from Dan Bongino’s Shift in Tone
Dan Bongino, the former deputy director of the FBI, found himself at the center of a storm of criticism after Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the Justice Department had found no evidence suggesting that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered or that a so-called “client list” existed. This revelation came as a major blow to conspiracy theorists and those who had long believed in the narrative surrounding Epstein’s death.

Bongino, who was once a prominent MAGA influencer before joining the FBI, had previously made numerous public statements about Epstein and the “client list.” He often promoted theories that suggested Epstein was killed and that he had been blackmailing powerful individuals. On February 10, Bongino vowed not to let the story go, claiming a reporter had told him about tapes that Epstein used to extort the wealthy and powerful. He also mentioned an allegation involving former President Bill Clinton, stating, “I’m not letting it go ever.”
However, on Monday, Bongino appeared to change his stance. He shared a screenshot of President Donald Trump’s support for the FBI and Director Kash Patel, emphasizing, “We are doubling down. No letting up.” This shift in tone came as MAGA supporters reacted strongly to Bondi’s announcement, with many expressing frustration and disappointment.
In May, Bongino had claimed that video footage showed no one approached Epstein’s cell when he died, and no forensic evidence suggested anyone else was present at the time. He stated, “There’s no DNA, there’s no audio, there’s no fingerprints, there’s no suspects, there’s no accomplices, there’s no tips, there is nothing.” Bongino added, “If you have it, I’m happy to see it.”

The reaction from MAGA fans was intense, with over 6,000 comments on Bongino’s post within an hour. One user, Diligent Denizen, wrote, “You failed us,” while FSP Domino criticized the situation, saying, “The gaslighting is next level. Love the people saying ‘the client list never existed.'”
Southern Right Cross expressed frustration, stating, “Holy s—man… I think you should drop better hints or give us something more than this.” They questioned what Bondi was talking about and whether Maxwell had been prosecuted, adding, “I can’t spell that b—-es first name.” Another user, Brooklyn attorney Damin Toell, remarked, “Congrats, Dan! You made the right hate the FBI again.”
Dominic Michael Tripi criticized Bongino, saying, “Credibility and trust have been completely eroded. Truly a shameful and embarrassing outcome.” X user KryptoaD added, “Unfortunately, it feels as though you were picked in order to silence you.”
Bongino’s position has come under scrutiny, with many questioning his motives and the credibility of his previous claims. The situation highlights the ongoing debate around the FBI and its role in high-profile cases like that of Jeffrey Epstein. As the conversation continues, it remains to be seen how Bongino will navigate the backlash and maintain his standing among his followers.
