Multiple agencies are forming a team of security personnel to protect Deputy Agent Director Dan Bongino all the time, both on site and at the agency building.
According to the article, Bongino would be the first deputy director to get that level of detail, requiring up to 20 agents. A week ago, the FBI gave agents the opportunity to apply to be part of a “temporary duty assignment” during which Bongino would be guarded.
According to the story, Bongino was trained as a Secret Service agent and a New York police officer who found that he didn’t need to have a gun, since he was more detailed in his work.
Unlike Francis, the previous deputy director, Paul Abbate, only had one agent who went with him to different events. According to the findings, Abbate only provided complete details about his trips overseas.
The issue is whether there’s a risk and threat involved, or whether he’s only asking for additional protection. What we’re discussing is actual taxpayer money, according to Frank Figliuzzi, a former FBI official interview on NBC News.
According to the report, the FBI director and the U.S. attorney general are the only ones who have complete security information.
FBI Director Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino have decided to make changes at what they believe is a broken institution.
In the evening on Sunday, Bongino went to X, the new version of Twitter, to talk about the recent investigation by the FBI and what people can expect in the future.
I am leaving for DC today after my brief visit with my family. I want to tell you that all the things we are experiencing are on purpose and not by accident. The type of work handled by the FBI requires Director Wray and me to stay careful about revealing classified details. Bad actors also look through this kind of information. Neither one of us has any intention of playing games, as Bongino writes.
Appreciate us on our achievements. You will meet these characters. Even if you don’t see it taking place right now, doesn’t mean it’s not taking place. I want to stress that some results will not please all the people. That shows little concern for the public and is not what true leadership is about. It requires effort and a restructuring plan to attain lasting changes with complex problems. In this case, all you’re doing is patching up a big problem. We should make sure to do it correctly. God bless our country, and all who serve to keep it safe,” he also said.
I also want to say this: Your feedback and opinions are really appreciated and useful. We focus on the needs and interests of you, our citizens. Your opinions are extremely helpful and important. How about giving some consideration to this feedback for your feedback? Sometimes we don’t understand our reform agenda when not all the facts about a situation are published.
I promise that this is not by chance. Ask yourself, what is the reason for me to do this if I am not getting paid for it. Is the goal to have extreme wealth, to be a well-known public figure, a powerful member, or to become a lobbyist in the future? That idea makes no sense, and that’s why he called it ridiculous,” Bongino said.
After I became a police officer, I knew there were many situations where the law or ethics did not allow me to fully describe our choices. That’s something I accepted when I became a politician. In other words, I understand that you will never take my advice just because I trust you.
Let the action unfold, don’t stop insisting on answers, be careful with misleading information, wait for the events to fall into place, and what’s occurring will seem clearer. I acknowledge the things you provide to me through your sound and actions. Thanks for taking the time to listen to me,” he ended with.
