I'm Not Letting You Get Away With It' - Dan Bongino Drops Nasty Surprise On Former President Obama


×

Former FBI Co-Deputy Director Dan Bongino responded sharply to remarks by former President Barack Obama, issuing what some interpreted as a warning during a recent episode of his podcast.


“I know things too, Mr. President, and so do you,” Bongino said, reacting to Obama’s comments about the role of government and the justice system.

Obama made his remarks during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where he warned against the politicization of law enforcement and prosecutorial decisions. He said the government should not be used to target political opponents.

 

“We can’t … have a situation in which whoever is in charge of the government starts using that to go after their political enemies,” Obama said. He also emphasized that the White House should not direct the attorney general on specific prosecutions.

Bongino criticized those comments on his podcast, linking them to his own claims about investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election. He said he would not allow Obama’s remarks to go unanswered.

“And I’m not letting you get away with this, no chance!” Bongino said.

Bongino has previously discussed what he describes as “Russiagate” materials and has claimed that documents discovered during his time at the FBI could shed light on what he calls the “weaponization” of government institutions.

 

His comments come after he recently said he feared for his safety if Democrats regain control of Congress, adding to the intensity of his public statements.

Bongino served in the Secret Service’s Presidential Protective Division during Obama’s presidency and later became a vocal critic of the administration after entering politics and media.

 

During his time in protective service, Bongino had spoken positively about Obama and his family. However, his relationship with the former president’s legacy shifted significantly in the years that followed.

 

After leaving government service, Bongino became a prominent media figure and frequent critic of Democratic leadership, often raising concerns about government overreach.
