We all recall when Dan Bongino, after joining the FBI, reversed his past stance on the Epstein case, declaring that Epstein had killed himself, case closed. Now critics are pointing out to Bongino that he used to sell accountability rhetoric and then retreated into institutional secrecy once given power. And he's not happy about it! In a striking video, Bongino makes repeated claims about being entrusted with "custody of information," which Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger label as the kind of deep-state language typically used to justify withholding truth from the public while demanding trust. The two argue that Bongino's emotional outbursts, attacks on critics like Dave Smith, and appeals to classified briefings expose hypocrisy and a lack of self-awareness. Ultimately, the piece portrays Bongino as another figure who promised justice, protected the system instead, and now lashes out at voters for asking the very questions he once encouraged. Plus segments on Trump's jaw-dropping response to the latest Epstein files release, Joe Rogan's surprising appearance in the files, evidence suggesting that Jeffrey Epstein was removed from prison the night before he allegedly committed suicide and Thomas Massie's description of how the public will know if the Epstein files' release had the proper effect. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
