WASHINGTON, D.C. — FBI Director Kash Patel forcefully rejected speculation about his potential resignation on Saturday, addressing swirling rumors of internal discord within the Trump administration over the Justice Department's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case files. In a post on X, Patel dismissed the chatter as baseless, stating, "The conspiracy theories just aren't true, never have been. It's an honor to serve the President of the United States
@realDonaldTrump — and I'll continue to do so for as long as he calls on me."
No posts on X from Bongino
The statement comes amid heightened scrutiny of the administration’s approach to the long-awaited Epstein files, which have fueled public and political speculation for years. Sources familiar with the matter told the Daily Mail that former Secret Service agent and conservative commentator Dan Bongino issued an ultimatum to the Justice Department, threatening to resign if Attorney General Pam Bondi does not step down over her handling of the sensitive documents. Axios reported that Bongino, a vocal critic of the Justice Department’s actions, "took the day off" from work on Friday, with a source close to him claiming, "he ain’t coming back." The reported absence has intensified speculation about a deepening rift within the administration.
Patel’s public rebuttal aims to quell rumors of his own departure and reaffirm his commitment to President Trump’s agenda. The Epstein case, tied to allegations of high-profile cover-ups, remains a lightning rod for controversy, with the public eagerly awaiting the release of additional documents.Neither the Justice Department nor Bondi’s office responded to requests for comment. Bongino has not publicly confirmed his intentions, leaving the situation unresolved as tensions simmer within the administration.
