Laura Loomer, the prominent MAGA influencer and Trump-world insider, dropped several posts on Friday, one of which turned out to be a quickly confirmed scoop. Loomer reported that Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino is “now seriously thinking about RESIGNING” amid the ongoing fallout from the so-called “Epstein Files” memo, concluding there was no conspiracy.
Loomer’s Bongino post was quickly confirmed by mainstream media reporters from CNN and Axios. She later posted that if President Donald Trump were to fire Attorney General Pam Bondi, who has been under fire over her handling of the Epstein case, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is a leading contender to replace her.
“If Blondi is fired, I’m told @GovRonDeSantis has been considered/floated for the role of Attorney General by some over the last few months,” Loomer wrote on X, adding:
There’s also a private push behind the scenes by some GOP donors who want to see @KenPaxtonTX as AG, but he has US Senate aspirations.
However, discussions have been taking place for several months about who could be Blondi’s replacement if she ever was fired
