In a stunning revelation during a January 29, 2026, appearance on Fox News’ Hannity, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino expressed profound shock after accessing classified internal documents related to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation into alleged Russian collusion with the Trump campaign. Bongino, a former Secret Service agent and vocal Trump supporter who was appointed to the deputy director role by President Trump in late 2025, described the materials as exposing a “systematic breakdown” in safeguards that allowed what he called “absolute animals” within the agency to target the former president unjustly. He emphasized that these details, which he could only review in secure FBI offices, painted a picture far more disturbing than public accounts of the so-called Russia hoax, highlighting coordinated efforts that eroded institutional guardrails.

Bongino elaborated on his reaction, noting that despite his extensive background in law enforcement—including stints with the NYPD, Secret Service, and media ventures—he was rarely caught off guard, but this information left him “stunned.” He recounted reading through the files on Crossfire Hurricane and its spinoffs, which revealed how barriers “broke down at the exact same time,” enabling actions he deemed not just wrong but “demonic” and “evil.” Bongino warned that such abuses of power make it impossible to “run a republic like this,” underscoring the threat to democratic principles and vowing to expose the truth through ongoing investigations led by FBI Director Kash Patel.

The comments have ignited widespread debate, with Trump allies hailing them as vindication of long-held claims about deep-state weaponization against the president, while critics accuse Bongino of politicizing the FBI from within. Reactions on social media and conservative outlets amplified his message, with many viewing it as a precursor to potential declassifications or indictments of Obama-era officials involved in the probe. If pursued, these revelations could reshape public trust in federal institutions, prompting calls for reforms to prevent future partisan misuse of intelligence resources.
