FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino faced scrutiny after protesting Attorney General Pam Bondi's management of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Following his absence from work on Friday, he considered resignation amid discontent with Bondi's assurances. The White House was concerned about Bongino's whereabouts, indicating deteriorating relationships with Trump officials. By Monday, Bongino returned to work in a better mood, although tensions remained high, as he had not communicated with several officials for days, including President Trump, who was reportedly angry with him.
Dan Bongino made news last week after he played hooky on Friday in protest of Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
Bongino's relationship with other Trump officials has deteriorated so much that there are officials inside the White House who have not spoken to him in days.
Bongino showed up to work on Monday and was in a better headspace, according to CNN's Kristen Holmes.
The FBI's number two was considering resigning if Bondi remained as attorney general.
