Key points include the establishment of incoming reform teams aimed at enhancing their reform agenda. Bongino disclosed that they are refocusing on notable public corruption cases, specifically the washington D.C. pipe bombing investigation, the discovery of cocaine in the White House during President Biden&#8217;s administration, and the leak of the Supreme Court&#8217;s Dobbs decision.<\/p>\n<p>Bongino highlighted ongoing efforts to reopen or allocate more resources to these investigations and encouraged the public to provide any relevant tips. He also mentioned a conscious decision to limit their media presence, opting instead for written updates. this reflects both a proactive dialog strategy and an effort to avoid controversies, notably following their recent interview that faced backlash over statements regarding Jeffrey Epstein&#8217;s death.Bongino concluded by thanking supporters and reaffirming the FBI&#8217;s dedication to its work.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino took to X early Monday to announce some sweeping new initiatives for the bureau.<\/p>\n<p>And at least one of those changes could dredge up ghosts of presidential administrations past.<\/p>\n<p>First, Bongino announced that he and FBI Director Kash Patel were close to having their &ldquo;incoming reform teams&rdquo; finalized and in place.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This will help us both in doubling down on our reform agenda,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Thanks for following this account and allowing us to update you about what we&rsquo;re doing at your FBI.
