Former law enforcement officer Dan Bongino will be returning to podcasting following his departure from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. During an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity, the 51-year-old Bongino, who was the deputy director of the FBI from 2025 to 2026, announced the return of his podcast, The Dan Bongino Show, on January 22, 2026.

The former law enforcement officer, Dan Bongino, who is also a radio host, during his conversation with Hannity, slammed the media for double standards in public safety coverage. While it was Bongino's first TV interview after quitting Donald Trump's administration, he took a serious dig at the media and described it as having "a full diaper all the time."

The former Secret Service agent, Dan Bongino, with a successful career so far, working both as a podcaster and a law enforcement agent, has a total net worth of $150 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. While speaking with Sean Hannity about whether Donald Trump's administration and policies had anything to do with the increase in violent crimes in the US, Bongino said:

"Well, there's a thousand excuses as to why President Trump and his administration didn't do it. Meanwhile, I lived it. I know what we did and didn't do for these dumba----."

After announcing the return of his podcast, Dan Bongino, during his conversation with Sean Hannity, mentioned a New York Times story that covered interviews of 45 former and current employees who blamed Kash Patel, who was appointed as the FBI Director in 2025, for turning the United States into a less safe country. Bongino said:

"Do you dipwads even read your own headlines? Are you that stupid?"

Hen went ahead and said:

"These are these media morons — people who’ve never spent a day wearing a badge. Never kicked in a door. Never arrested some child predator or some bank robber or some gang member. These morons don’t know anything about the safety status of the country."

While he mentioned Venezuela's president, Nicolas Maduro, and how the US is thinking of acquiring parts of Greenland, Bongino added:

"What freaking country are these morons living in?. I mean, what are they looking at? Are they missing this stuff? These are not small items. That isn’t even — forget — I haven’t even gotten to Maduro being out of power, the Cuban leadership’s crapping their pants, we may acquire portions of Greenland."
