FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino returned to work on Monday after a disagreement with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation prompted him to consider resigning last week, according to The Post.

Multiple sources told CNN that Bongino, 50, returned to work after taking a personal day on Friday, but his future with the agency remains unknown following the heated discussion with President Trump’s Justice Department chief.

The FBI and DOJ delivered a document this week summarizing a review of the case against Epstein, who died in his Manhattan prison cell on August 10, 2019.

The handling of the Epstein files has sparked a schism within Trump’s MAGA supporters, with some supporting Bongino if he had quit in protest of the case’s alleged lack of openness.

Some MAGA supporters have asked that Bondi, who claimed in a February Fox News interview that Epstein’s client list was on her desk “to be reviewed,” be the one forced out of the administration. Trump has indicated that calmer heads should prevail.

Before entering the Trump administration, Bongino had long suspected there was more to the Epstein case than authorities were revealing.

The former attorney for deceased human trafficker Jeffrey Epstein “unequivocally” said that Trump is nowhere to be seen on the infamous list of clients that his former client had.

David Schoen, who represented Epstein in the final weeks before he died in 2019, revealed in June that he had questioned his imprisoned client about any potential dirt on Trump.

The comments resurfaced Monday as a new twist in the already chaotic saga of the Trump administration’s handling of Epstein’s files, following a Justice Department memo leaked to Axios last week that concluded the disgraced financier committed suicide and did not maintain a “client list” to blackmail elites.

“I was hired to lead Jeffrey Epstein’s defense as his criminal lawyer 9 days before he died. He sought my advice for months before that. I can say authoritatively, unequivocally, and definitively that he had no information to hurt President Trump. I specifically asked him!” Schoen said in a post on X.

MAGA supporters are voicing frustration with President Trump after he offered a strong defense of Attorney General Pam Bondi, whose Department of Justice recently denied the existence of a Jeffrey Epstein client list, despite years of promises from Trump allies to expose the disgraced financier’s secrets.

Longtime conservatives and Trump loyalists took to social media and voiced their anger in person at a convention in Florida, insisting the Epstein scandal “will not go away.” The DOJ concluded that Epstein died by suicide in 2019 and maintains that no list exists naming the powerful individuals allegedly involved in his network of sexual abuse, Fox News reported.

“.@realDonaldTrump please understand the EPSTEIN AFFAIR is not going away,” retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, Trump’s national security advisor from his first administration, posted to X on Saturday. “If the administration doesn’t address the massive number of unanswered questions about Epstein, especially the ABUSE OF CHILDREN BY ELITES (it is very clear that abuse occurred), then moving forward on so many other monumental challenges our nation is facing becomes much harder.”
In a joint memo obtained by Fox News last week, the DOJ and FBI stated they had no additional information to release regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s case or death.

The announcement sparked internal tensions, with FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino reportedly clashing with Attorney General Pam Bondi over what he described as a “lack of transparency,” even going so far as to threaten resignation, according to Fox News.

Epstein was a convicted sexuaI predator who pleaded guilty in 2008 to procuring underage girls for prostitution. He was arrested again in 2019 on new federal charges of s3x trafficking minors and conspiracy to commit s3x trafficking.

The financier, who mingled with global elites from Bill Gates to being photographed with Donald Trump years before his presidency, was found dead in his New York City jail cell in August 2019, in what was officially ruled a suicide.

However, many MAGA supporters reject that conclusion, alleging Epstein did not hang himself and claiming his death was part of a broader cover-up to protect powerful individuals implicated in his abuse of minors, Fox noted.
