Fired Up Dan Bongino Puts James Comey on Notice: ‘We Found Stuff’ Hidden at FBI HQ
In a recent interview with Fox News, Deputy FBI director Dan Bongino expressed that the American public will be “stunned” by uncovering materials related to former FBI Director James Comey. These findings are believed to date back to Comey’s tenure, during which he was involved in controversial investigations, including the Russia collusion inquiry related to the Trump campaign. Following his firing by President Donald Trump in 2017, a two-year investigation led by former FBI Director Robert Mueller found no collusion.
bongino criticized Comey, labeling him a disgrace to the FBI and suggesting that some of the documents they found had not been properly processed and were inadequately stored. He revealed that they discovered a significant amount of material that could shed light on Comey’s actions while in office, emphasizing that there are people within the FBI looking to bring these documents to public attention. Additionally, Bongino called out Comey’s recent social media posts, which drew controversy and accusations of inciting violence against Trump, leading to an investigation by the Secret Service. Bongino highlighted the continuing consequences of Comey’s actions during his directorship and expressed confidence that new revelations would soon emerge.
Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino said the American public is going to be “stunned” by the materials found in a room that date back to James Comey’s tenure as FBI director.
President Donald Trump fired Comey shortly into his first term in 2017, with the president reportedly angered by Comey’s involvement in initiating and continuing the Russia collusion investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign.
A probe headed by former FBI Director Robert Mueller determined after nearly two years of investigation that the Trump campaign had not colluded with Russia.
During an interview with Fox News on Thursday, Bongino said, “I’ve gotta tell you of all the things that have surprised me in the close to now three months I’ve been here, is the depravity of Jim Comey.”
“This man is a disgrace to the badge, the FBI, and the country,” he added.

“We have wasted countless man hours now running out tips through our tip line about people putting ‘8647’ because of Jim Comey, because he cannot control himself and his emotions. ⁰He is a child. He is a big child.”… pic.twitter.com/IY6AIV0Fns

“We have wasted countless man hours now running out tips through our tip line about people putting ’86 47′ because of Jim Comey, because he cannot control himself and his emotions. He is a child. He is a big child,” Bongino said.
Earlier this month, Comey d a picture on social media, which said “86 47” made out of rocks and shells on a beach.
“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” he captioned the photo.
After receiving blowback, with many interpreting the post as a call to assassinate Trump, Comey took it down.

Both Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and current FBI Director Kash Patel posted on social media that the matter would be investigated by the Secret Service, with HHS and the FBI providing support.
Bongino pointed out that Comey has never been prosecuted for alleged wrongdoing from his time as FBI director, when he was involved with obtaining Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants to spy on the Trump campaign and passing along sensitive FBI documents to the media following his firing.

“We’re finding stuff even now. Wait ‘til you read the stuff that’s coming out,” Bongino said.
“Luckily, there are a lot of people up there [at the FBI] who grabbed us by the arm the minute we came in and said, ‘Thank you for being here. We need to talk.’ There are people there who are really horrified at what happened,” he continued.
“And there was a room, and we found stuff, a lot of stuff,” Bonino said. “A lot of it’s from the Comey era, and we are working our damndest right now to declassify it.”
The deputy director noted that the documents they found had not been processed through normal procedures by digitizing and logging them.
Bonginos said, “We found it in bags, hiding under Jim Comey’s FBI. You’re gonna be stunned.”
