Tucker EXPOSES Bongino’s Dark Turn! (Jimmy Dore)

In this segment Jimmy discusses Tucker Carlson’s account of Dan Bongino’s dramatic change in demeanor and attitude after becoming deputy director of the FBI, suggesting that Bongino initially entered government intending to expose corruption but later became defensive and hostile toward former allies who continued to challenge the Deep State. According to Carlson, Bongino initially described the FBI as far worse than outsiders imagined, but after Carlson shared information about Thomas Matthew Crooks’s allegedly nonexistent YouTube account, Carlson says FBI leadership confirmed the material was authentic before turning against him and refusing to answer questions about the investigation.

Jimmy speculates that Bongino may have encountered something inside the FBI that frightened him into abandoning his previous positions, while comparing his apparent change with what Dore sees as similar disappointments involving Kash Patel, RFK Jr., and Donald Trump. The discussion also touches on Jeffrey Epstein, the unresolved questions surrounding the Butler assassination attempt, and the Kennedy family’s history of trauma, with Dore criticizing public figures who appear to abandon their earlier promises once they enter positions of power.



Bongino's past, namely being in the Secret Service, likely meant he was compromised from the beginning, or aware of some very dark truths. He might have thought he could have made some changes, but ran into a wall - assuming that he was being honest in the first place.

The only way to break the corruption is through a mass uprising or a military coup. The US State and institutions have been captured by corrupt actors. Perhaps an economic collapse is needed to undo everything - one seems to be coming in the near future.

Whether intentional or not, Trump is pushing things towards disaster so that the US economy and country will fail. The big question is, will things be changed for the better coming out the other side of the mess? A coup is still probably needed.
