🚨🚨NEW: Dan Bongino is calling for the U.S. government to "go full open kimono" on the Trump assassinations by launching a new blue-ribbon Independent Commission on the attempted killings at both Butler and the president's West Palm Beach golf course.
Bongingo made the statements on his podcast today in the wake of yesterday's bizarre news about would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks — that an anonymous donor paid for Crooks' body cremation and that Crooks used the pseudonym "Bob Dole" to order gun parts to his house, among other new Sen.
@ChuckGrassley findings.
Dan says it's important to have far more transparency and open the books on assassination attempts in order to restore trust in the government. He also cited press reports in the NYT and elsewhere that he advocated for more transparency while deputy director of the FBI.
"So, I've got a proposal for Butler. I think we should...there should be an independent commission appointed. I think they should review everything,"
@dbongino said on his podcast, reminding viewers that Grassley's report states that the FBI handed his office the information about Crooks back in March.
More from Dan:
"It shouldn't be anyone from the FBI, from the CIA, from any three-letter agency, get a respected, outside, maybe a guy — I'm just throwing a name out there — like a Rudy Giuliani type or a Bill Bratton, who was the police chief in New York, a guy with no attachment to any of these entities that has no reason to kind of like, whatever fudge the numbers or whatever some people may think is going on, and review everything. Review everything."
Dan says he wouldn't be calling for a full commission if he thought FBI Director and his good friend Kash Patel was involved in any malfeasance. After the commission does its investigation, Congress should launch its own set of hearings on the commission's findings, he said.
"Finally, when it's all over, and we get an independent commission, people not connected to the FBI, CIA, IBF, WXYZ, whatever, and they have the congressional hearings where everybody gets to ask everything — Democrats, Republicans, fake Independents — I think there should be a press conference. It should be like, what do you think, fellas? Like 40 hours long? It should go on where every single question you have is fair game."
A 40-hour press conference is an exaggeration, he concedes, but it could go on for eight hours -- or even for two days. It's that important to restore trust, he stressed.
Thank you, Dan. I couldn't agree more. I've been calling for more congressional hearings into Butler and the Secret Service failures/DEI fallout, etc. ever since Butler on my own podcast, on
@RCPolitics' podcast,
@CharlieKirk11's,
@JudicialWatch's and whoever will listen. Jason Chaffetz
@jasoninthehouse, who led the last series of hard-hitting Congressional investigations in the Secret Service when he was House Oversight Committee chairman, has done the same
Congress shouldn't ignore Dan's call for full transparency. These leaks of dribs and drabs of Thomas Crooks' information are only stirring up more conspiracy theories. It all needs to be addressed head-on with full transparency.
