Dan Bongino has only been FBI deputy director for a short time, but he’s already complaining about the job.
Bongino, who was a Secret Service agent and peddler of conspiracy theories before President Donald Trump tapped him for his current position, appeared on “Fox & Friends” Thursday to discuss three Biden-era cases the FBI has recently reopened, including an investigation into a bag of cocaine found at the White House in 2023.
However, the part of the interview that is getting the buzz was Bongino’s admission that he isn’t enjoying his new job one bit ― especially the work-life balance, or lack thereof.
“The biggest lifestyle change is family-wise,” Bongino lamented, explaining that he took the civil service job at the president’s behest.
“It was a lot, and it’s been tough on the family. People ask all the time, ‘Do you like it?’ No. I don’t,” he said. “But the president didn’t ask me to do this to like it — nobody likes going into an organization like that and having to make big changes.”
