FBI Agents Outraged by Right-Wing Podcaster’s Appointment
President Trump’s appointment of conservative podcaster Dan Bongino as FBI Deputy Director has sparked outrage among current and former FBI officials. Bongino, a vocal critic of the FBI with a history of promoting unfounded claims about the agency, will be second-in-command to FBI Director Kash Patel, who also lacks FBI experience. This unprecedented appointment breaks with tradition, as the position has always been filled by a career agent. The move has prompted fears among FBI personnel that the bureau’s independence and integrity are severely threatened.
