Dan Bongino, the recently retired deputy director of the FBI, announced his return to the MAGA media world on Monday and declared war on the “group of black-pillers, life-losers, grifters and bums” he claimed are trying to hijack the conservative movement.

Bongino had said on multiple occasions that his job at the FBI was making him miserable and he officially announced he would be leaving his role late last year. He posted to mark his return to the media world, writing, “Good to see you all. I missed you. Thanks for everything while we worked on cleaning up. Working in the administration was the experience of a lifetime. I’ll have some announcements coming up but I’m taking a couple of days to spend with the family.” He added:

A couple of things:

-Thank you for your interest in the show and its return date. We will have something for you soon.

-The Trump team is not kidding around. It’s an otherworldly experience from the other side. He’s determined and focused. And having been around quite a few Presidents, this one broke the mold.

-If we blocked you, it’s because we care so little about your bullshit that we deem it not worthy of even seeing.

If you’re bitching and whining about it that means you can’t exist without seeing and commenting on ours. You’ll need to get over that. We do it because there’s nothing black-pillers and anti-Trumpers want more than to create division and drama. We’re about results, and we’ll talk about some of it soon.

Bongino followed that message up with a more direct attack on “black-pillers.” The Wiktionary defines a “black-piller” as “a person who has adopted a nihilistic and often far-right philosophy, especially an incel who believes men’s dating success is determined purely by their physical appearance.” Far-right podcasters, like Nick Fuentes, would be a prime example of the influencers Bongino appears to be referring.

1. The Question is how much someone is now paying him

and whether or not he'll ever divulge the real reason he left: Patel and Trump want full access to monetizing rights and opportunities.

2. Danny Bongos couldn't handle the truth,

so it's back to his podcast cocoon where he can lie, lie, lie, and fleece the MAGA faithful.

Come on Dan, get back on the "Release the Epstein Files" train. No? That's what I thought.

3. O K Dan. Just make sure u have proof of citizenship

when you visit any Home Depot.

4. Without "black-pillers, life-losers, grifters and bums", there's nothing left of the conservative movement

Particularly "MAGA".

7. Really! Who would be left in the movement?

5. "...retired deputy director of the FBI ..."

"retired"? After serving less than a year? Does he get a pension? Health benefits? I sure hope not.

I'm sure he did a fine job of doing mostly nothing.

6. If they got rid of grifters, who would be left?

8. "He's determined and focused." Really?

9. And this ass-wipe of a human being was deputy director of the FBI.

Gives a new glimpse of the beyond incompetent creatures appointed by Trump.

Our country is being run by absolute kooks.

10. "this one broke the mold"

Well, that is certainly true.

[creon]

11. He had to work at the FBI.

That is why he left.
Bongino is lazy and his job at the FBI was far beyond his ability.

Talking on Radio/podcast is easy. I think that someone else writes the script

12. I first read this a "Black pillars" (of the community)

But then realized that was old news
