The newly appointed FBI leadership under Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino has ignited a firestorm across conservative circles after publicly backing the official narrative<\/em> that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide \u2014 AND brushing off explosive concerns about the shocking assassination attempts on President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

During a tense Fox News appearance with Maria Bartiromo, the two Trump allies, celebrated as Deep State slayers, parroted the\u00a0same discredited government line<\/em> that patriots have fought against for years.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the interview, Bartiromo asked Patel and Bongino about Patel\u2019s recent Senate testimony, where he was grilled by Senator John Kennedy (R-LA)<\/a> about Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Kennedy asked, \u201cDid Jeffrey Epstein hang himself or did somebody kill him?\u201d<\/p>\n

Patel\u2019s response was, \u201cSenator, I believe he hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan Detention Center.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Bartiromo challenged Patel, noting that \u201cpeople don\u2019t believe it,\u201d Patel leaned on his experience as a public defender and prosecutor.<\/p>\n

\n

Maria Bartiromo:<\/strong>
You said Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. People don\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n

Kash Patel:<\/strong>
Well, I mean, listen, they have a right to their opinion. But as someone who has worked as a public defender, as a prosecutor, who\u2019s been in that prison system, who\u2019s been in the Metropolitan Detention Center, who\u2019s been in segregated housing\u2014you know a suicide when you see one. And that\u2019s what that was.<\/p>\n

Dan Bongino:<\/strong>
He killed himself. Again, you want me to\u2026 I\u2019ve seen the whole file. He killed himself.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Kash Patel and Dan Bongino say Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. So either Patel and Bongino have launched a new Deep State coverup to protect co-conspirators in a demonic sex trafficking ring, or Epstein did in fact kill himself pic.twitter.com\/2k1nsN6jLY<\/a><\/p>\n

Infowars host Alex Jones expressed his disapproval of Patel and Bongino\u2019s claims, labeling them as \u201cbullshit.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOverall, I think Kash Patel and Dan Bongino are doing a great job, but on this claim that Epstein\u2019s death is not a cover-up I call bullshit.<\/p>\n

EPSTEIN confirmed a suic*de? Maria sits down with FBI\u2019s Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, who claim Epstein did, in fact, commit suic*de. Now, let\u2019s get into why people do not believe this theory.<\/p>\n

Number one, Maurene Comey, Fmr. disgraced FBI Dir. James Comey\u2019s daughter was in charge of Epstein\u2019s alleged suic*de investigation, which isn\u2019t a good start, and Maurene allegedly lost the jailhouse CCTV tapes as a result of a technical error.<\/p>\n

Then on top of the \u201clost\/erased tapes,\u201d through a \u201ctechnical error,\u201d both security guards \u201cfell asleep,\u201d who were supposed to be watching Epstein\u2019s cell, who was on 24hr surveillance for suicide watch which is standard procedure in every jail and being a high-profile prisoner.<\/p>\n

There are rumors and a video you can search which claims nitrous oxide was used to knock the guards out, which then Epstein was taken out by another individual. Others claim the guards were paid not to talk.<\/p>\n

Either way, for the tapes to mysteriously go missing or erased and to have not one, but TWO guards both fall asleep coincidentally, the odds of both of these happenings to occur at the same time in the same place are astronomical.<\/p>\n

We know the Comey\u2019s are corrupt. James Comey just sent out a dogwhistle to have our sitting president assassinated. Why do you think he would do that? What is Comey, the Clintons, and the Obamas all have to hide? Are you paying attention to Trump\u2019s recent posts? Are you starting to connect the dots? Remember, there are no coincidences.<\/p>\n

Do you think they\u2019re telling the truth? What do you think really happened to Epstein?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Overall, I think Kash Patel and Dan Bongino are doing a great job, but on this claim that Epstein\u2019s death is not a cover-up I call bullshit.<\/p>\n

Epstein was housed in the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC), a facility known for its stringent security measures.<\/span> Yet, on the night of his death, multiple protocols were inexplicably breached:<\/span><\/p>\n

Guards assigned to Epstein\u2019s unit reportedly fell asleep and failed to perform mandatory checks for approximately three hours.<\/span> They later falsified records to cover up their negligence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two cameras positioned outside Epstein\u2019s cell malfunctioned that night, and a third camera\u2019s footage was deemed unusable.<\/span><\/p>\n

Epstein\u2019s cellmate was transferred the evening before his death, leaving him alone, contrary to standard procedures for inmates at risk.<\/p>\n

The New York City medical examiner concluded that Epstein died by suicide via hanging.<\/span> However, Dr. Michael Baden, a renowned forensic pathologist hired by Epstein\u2019s family, observed the autopsy and noted injuries more consistent with homicidal strangulation, including fractures of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Equally shocking were Bongino\u2019s comments dismissing concerns about assassination attempts on President Trump.<\/p>\n

\n

Bongino:<\/strong> You know what, Maria? Kash is not kidding. We’ve been personally briefed extensively on every single detail, nugget, and tendril of this case. One is actively in court right now, so out of respect for the case, it’s probably more appropriate that I stay quiet on that.<\/p>\n

However, I’m not going to tell people what they want to hear\u2014I’m going to tell you the truth. And whether you like it or not is up to you.<\/p>\n

If there was a big, explosive \u201cthere\u201d there\u2014given my history as a Secret Service agent and my personal friendship, as the Director does, with the President\u2014give me one logical, sensible reason we would not have [told you]. If you can think of one… there isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

In some of these cases, the \u201cthere\u201d you’re looking for is not there. I know people… I get it. I understand. It\u2019s not there. If it was there, we would have told you.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dan Bongino says there is no “big, explosive there there” with regard to the Trump assassination attempts. So either FBI officials Bongino and Kash Patel are part of a Deep State coverup, or there really is no hidden sinister truth to reveal about the Trump assassination attempts pic.twitter.com\/LE0fVuUvL0<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a stunning reversal from Bongino\u2019s previous whistleblowing on Secret Service failures. Just last year, he blew the lid off<\/a> the culture of corruption in the Secret Service.<\/p>\n
