Deputy FBI director Dan Bongino walked back one of his conspiracy theories after being confronted by Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
“You said, ‘there’s a massive cover up because the person that planted those pipe bombs, they don’t want you to know who it is, because it’s either a connected anti-Trump insider or an inside job.’ You said that long before you were even thought of as deputy FBI director,” Hannity told Bongino.
Bongino responded by walking back his past statement, emphasizing that he is now focused on the “facts.”
“Listen, I was paid in the past, Sean, for my opinions, that’s clear, and one day, I’ll be back in that space. But that’s not what I’m paid for now. I’m paid to be your deputy director, and we base investigations on facts,” Bongino said on “Hannity.”
