Just what the world has been missing; more Dan Bongino.





Wait, who's Dan Bongino?

Nawwww, some of us don't choose to be brainwashed by either side.

I know that's rare for you and most here.

It's very clear he was making a distinction between hosting a show that people watched to hear his interpretation of events (opinions) vs being paid as the deputy director of the FBI based on his ability to prove things (facts).


Seriously this was quite clear. The reading comprehension on this website is atrocious

Good luck with that having lost all credibility and I don't take him seriously.

I have many concerns about what’s happened or not happened at the FBI over the last 12m, this statement isn’t even close to being a problem.

“I was paid in the past for my opinions, that’s clear, and one day I’ll be back in that space,” Bongino declared. “But that’s not what I’m paid for now. I’m paid to be your deputy director, and we base investigations on facts.”



This is a great example of how easy it is for those on the left to see what they want to see.

That quote in no way suggested he lied to get ratings and popularity.

I will not listen to this shill. He wants to make $30M again, not the paltry $250K or whatever highly overpaid government bureaucrats make.
The sad thing is people believed his melodramatic soliloquies as they do Candace Owen's. He ranted with so much emotion on the deep swamp. There is very little objective news reporting now- what, when, where, why, how. It is all conjecture concocted for ratings on both sides of media. Caveat Emptor.

Bongino sounds like a silly word for a clown vagina.

Bill O’reilly still good to listen to. Has his own newscast on his website mon-thur evenings. Also has a YouTube channel now. He’s on Newsnation too a good amount. I find Newsnation to be pretty solid.

I enjoy him and Stephen A going back and forth on cuomo.

Really? Your only logical conclusion for an on air personality that says “I was paid for my opinions” is that he was torpedoing his own credibility instead of “I was paid to say my opinion pieces.” WOW.

They thrive on our Low educated, Low IQ, white trash types.

People that have to be told what to think.

Sad group, no balls.

Bongino is a loser and an embarrassment, but that isn’t what he was saying.
quote:

He was clearly stating that he was paid to give HIS opinions, not that he was paid to give specific opinions.

Not really taking a position here, but when he says he was paid for his opinions, was he not meaning he was earning income by giving his opinions on air? Not that someone was paying him to have a specific opinion?


IIRC the response that "he was paid to give his opinions" was to a question essentially asking him whey he was taking a different position that he had originally on something.


If someone is asking you why you now hold position X when you used to hold position Y and your response is that you "were paid for your opinions" when you held position Y, the obvious implication is that you were paid to hold position Y.

I'm not a Bongino fan but that's not a nefarious statement.

He was a well paid podcaster who used his platform to distribute his opinions.

This is making a mountain of a mole hill.
